@MichalTombskatz What a coincidence, I got this in my feed
Congrats Prof @MichalTombskatz
As a former student of yours, I am so proud for the achievement. Yes, well deserved for the new prefix👏🏻

[Gordon H. Guyatt @GuyattGH]

Clinicians clearly prefer a novel multilayered presentation format to the standard formats. All relevant information succinctly and instantaneously available, clinicians can choose how much they want. Should now be standard format.

🧵 Reporting Clinical Trial Results: A Simple Guide

1/ 🌟 Introduction: A clinical trial is a rigorous test of a new treatment or intervention. Reporting results transparently and comprehensively is critical for both medical advancement and public trust.

2/ 📝 Title & Abstract: Begin with a clear title indicating it's a clinical trial. The abstract should give a concise overview of the study's purpose, methods, results, and conclusions.

3/ 🎯 Objective: Clearly state the main aim of the trial. Was it to determine the efficacy of a new drug? Or to compare two treatment methods?

4/ 🔍 Methods: This is the heart of your report.
• Design: Was it randomized? Double-blind? Placebo-controlled?
• Participants: Inclusion/exclusion criteria. Demographics.
• Intervention: Precise details about the treatment given.
• Outcome Measures: What were the primary and secondary endpoints?

5/ 📊 Results:
• Participant Flow: How many started, completed, or dropped out?
• Baseline Data: Initial characteristics of each group.
• Outcomes: Report findings for each endpoint. Use clear tables or figures.
• Adverse Events: Essential for understanding potential side effects.

6/ 💡 Discussion: Contextualize the findings.
• Compare with previous research.
• Discuss the clinical implications.
• Address limitations.
• Suggest future research directions.

7/ 📈 Statistics: Any claims must be backed by solid stats.
• Clearly state the tests used.
• Always provide effect sizes, confidence intervals, and p-values.
• Clarify any post-hoc analyses or corrections.

8/ 🤝 Acknowledgments: Recognize funders, participants, and others who contributed. Disclose any conflicts of interest transparently.

9/ 📚 References: Ensure every claim or statement sourced from external research is appropriately cited.

10/ 🌐 Registries & Protocols: Most journals now require clinical trials to be registered in public databases. Provide registration details and any deviations from the initial protocol.

11/ 🎥 Visuals: Use graphs, flowcharts, and tables for clarity. For instance, a CONSORT flow diagram visually presents participant progression through the trial.

12/ 🌍 Conclusion: Transparent reporting is not just about credibility; it's about advancing medicine and ensuring patient safety. When done right, your study can pave the way for better healthcare solutions!

13/ 💬 Engage: Researchers & healthcare professionals: How do you ensure clarity & transparency in your reports? Any tools or practices you'd recommend? Share your insights!

(Note: While this thread provides an overview, detailed guidelines like CONSORT should be referred to when actually reporting clinical trials.)
