Clinical trial registry use in anaesthesiology systematic reviews: A cross-sectional study of systematic reviews published in anaesthesiology journals and the Cochrane Library

CONCLUSION: The majority of systematic reviews in anaesthesiology did not include data from clinical trial registries. Exclusion of statistically nonsignificant data may lead to a biased interpretation of the data and hence inappropriate clinical interventions. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Registered in University hospital Medical Information Network (UMIN) Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN000021932).
