Centro de Pesquisas Gonçalo Moniz. Salvador, BA, BrasilColumbia University. Department of Psychiatry. New York, NY, United States of AmericaColumbia University. School of Public Health. Division of Epidemiology. New York, NY,United States of AmericaResults of subgroup analysis (SA) reported in randomized clinical trials (RCT) cannot be adequately interpreted without information about the methods used in the study design and the data analysis. Our aim was to show how often inaccurate or incomplete reports occur. First, we selected eight methodological aspects of SA on the basis of their importance to a reader in determining the confidence that should be placed in the author’s conclusions regarding such analysis. Then, we reviewed the current practice of reporting these methodological aspects of SA in clinical trials in four leading journals, i.e., the New England Journal of Medicine, the Journal of the American Medical Association, the Lancet, and the American Journal of Public Health. Eight consecutive reports from each journal published after July 1, 1998 were included. Of the 32 trials surveyed, 17 (53%) had at least one SA. Overall, the proportion of RCT reporting a particular methodological aspect ranged from 23 to 94%. Information on whether the SA preceded/followed the analysis was reported in only 7 (41%) of the studies. Of the total possible number of items to be reported, NEJM, JAMA, Lancet and AJPH clearly mentioned 59, 67, 58 and 72%, respectively. We conclude that current reporting of SA in RCT is incomplete and inaccurate. The results of such SA may have harmful effects on treatment recommendations if accepted without judicious scrutiny. We recommend that editors improve the reporting of SA in RCT by giving authors a list of the important items to be reported.Subgroup analysesRandomized clinical trialsResearch designEpidemiological methodsEffect modificationPublicações Periódicas como Assunto/normasEnsaios Clínicos Controlados Aleatórios como Assunto/normasInterpretação Estatística de DadosHumanosEnsaios Clínicos Controlados Aleatórios como Assunto/métodosProjetos de Pesquisa/normasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Institucional da FIOCRUZ (ARCA)instname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZORIGINALMoreira ED Jr Reporting on methods of ....pdfMoreira ED Jr Reporting on methods of ....pdfapplication/pdf37039https://www.arca.fiocruz.br/bitstream/icict/5512/1/Moreira%20ED%20Jr%20%20Reporting%20on%20methods%20of%20....pdf2fb7c4e9518b874f5071b119d9a04071MD51LICENSElicense.txtlicense.txttext/plain; charset=utf-82008https://www.arca.fiocruz.br/bitstream/icict/5512/2/license.txt06db3f0df647fd9ddff657403bbe0ee2MD52TEXTMoreira ED Jr Reporting on methods of ....pdf.txtMoreira ED Jr Reporting on methods of ....pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain21483https://www.arca.fiocruz.br/bitstream/icict/5512/5/Moreira%20ED%20Jr%20%20Reporting%20on%20methods%20of%20....pdf.txtf5c41aa515069dd82229e65e1cf0236cMD55THUMBNAILMoreira ED Jr Reporting on methods of ....pdf.jpgMoreira ED Jr Reporting on methods of ....pdf.jpgGenerated Thumbnailimage/jpeg2224https://www.arca.fiocruz.br/bitstream/icict/5512/4/Moreira%20ED%20Jr%20%20Reporting%20on%20methods%20of%20....pdf.jpg32406f577c7d3bf8a3cf2c00195defafMD54icict/55122023-03-15 14:33:01.572oai:www.arca.fiocruz.br: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Repositório InstitucionalPUBhttps://www.arca.fiocruz.br/oai/requestrepositorio.arca@fiocruz.bropendoar:21352023-03-15T17:33:01Repositório Institucional da FIOCRUZ (ARCA) - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)false
