Reporting and Reviewing Clinical Trials (CTM104)
Aims
This module will cover writing up completed trials, including guidelines for authors (such as the CONSORT Statements for reporting), as well as guidelines for readers to aid their critical appraisal of trial reports. Since future policy, practice and further research will ideally be guided by the reports not merely of one trial but by the totality of the evidence, a major component of the module will therefore be the role of systematic reviews.
Credits
15 credits are offered on successful completion of this module.
