Objective: To describe the process of development, content, and methods of implementation of reporting guidelines for health research.
Study Design And Setting: A systematic review of publications describing health research reporting guidelines developed using consensus.
Results: Eighty-one reporting guidelines for health research were included in the review.
Objective: As part of a larger project on updating systematic reviews, we studied the currency of reviews at the time of publication to determine typical and achievable times to publication for systematic reviews published in journals, Health Technology Assessment technical reports or Cochrane Collaboration reviews, and examined differences in publication speed between these document types.
Study Design And Setting: A cohort of systematic reviews of treatment interventions originally published between 1995 and 2005 and indexed in ACP Journal Club was assembled. Dates of search, manuscript submission, acceptance, publication and indexing in MEDLINE were extracted.
