Reporting Transparency and Completeness in Trials: Paper 2 - Reporting of randomised trials using registries was often inadequate and hindered the interpretation of results

Registries are repositories of health information with those registered sharing a common characteristic, such as a disease, a drug treatment or health exposure1. They can be used to monitor the progression of a health condition and are often utilized to explore etiology, progression and potential treatments or cures of diseases and adherence to treatment guidelines. Registries are a type of routinely collected data that are increasingly utilized as a framework to support randomised controlled trials (RCTs)2 –4.
