Title
Item 1a - Identification as a randomised trial in the title.
Example
“Smoking reduction with oral nicotine inhalers: double blind, randomised clinical trial of efficacy and safety.”(63)
Explanation
The ability to identify a report of a randomised trial in an electronic database depends to a large extent on how it was indexed. Indexers may not classify a report as a randomised trial if the authors do not explicitly report this information.(64) To help ensure that a study is appropriately indexed and easily identified, authors should use the word “randomised” in the title to indicate that the participants were randomly assigned to their comparison groups.
