1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Introduction: Historically US-based academic organizations dedicated limited resources, including policies, personnel to ensuring compliance with clinical trials registration and results reporting requirements. A recent follow-up survey finds that 6-years after an initial survey, there is increased attention and dedication of resources to improve compliance rates for clinical trials registration and results reporting. Methods: Internet-based online survey using Qualtrics between 20 April 2023 and 30 September 2023 distributed to Protocol Registration and Results Reporting (PRS) Administrators at US-based academic organizations with ClinicalTrials.gov organizational accounts. The survey focused on the 249 respondents of the original 2016-2017 survey published in 2018. The overall response rate was 162/249 (65.06%) with 100% participation from National Cancer Center (NCI) Designated Cancer Centers and hubs of the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA). Results: Results indicated a marked increase of academic organizations with policies in place for registration (43 to 74%) and results reporting (35 to 68%). The median number of Full-time Equivalent (FTE) staff at responding academic organizations increased (from 0.08 to 0.5) with statistically significant difference between the number of organizational records and FTEs supporting registration and results reporting. Larger gains are seen with NCI-Designated Cancer Centers and/or CTSA hubs. Conclusions: It appears academic organizations are more equipped to comply with requirements, and demonstrate a trend towards appropriate staffing. In the 6 years since the original survey, US-based academic organizations have significantly increased attention to compliance with clinical trials registration and results reporting requirements, indicated by an increase in institutional policies and dedicated personnel.
