CONsolidated Standards of Reporting Trials: An evidence-based tool to help researchers, editors and readers assess the quality of the reports of trials
Trials (but not reviews or guidelines) are rated with a checklist (called the “PEDro scale“). The PEDro scale considers two aspects of trial quality, namely the “believability” (or “internal validity”) of the trial and whether the trial contains sufficient statistical information to allow interpretation of the information.
The PRISMA statement is a checklist and flow diagram to help systematic review and meta-analyses authors assess and report on the benefits and harms of a healthcare intervention.
