Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the reporting quality of clinical guidelines on skin diseases published in journals in China.Methods:The CNKI, VIP, Wanfang and SinoMed databases were searched from January 2009 to October 2019 for clinical guidelines on skin diseases published in journals in China. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, and extracted and cross-checked data. The reporting quality of these clinical guidelines was evaluated by using the Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT) , and statistical analysis was carried out with Excel 2017 software.Results:A total of 17 clinical guidelines on skin diseases were included, including 13 Western medicine guidelines and 4 Chinese medicine guidelines. Among the 13 Western medicine guidelines, the number of guidelines reporting the following areas in the RIGHT statement, namely basic information, background, evidence, recommendations, review and quality assurance, funding and declaration and management of interests, and other information, was 9, 6, 0, 4, 0, 1 and 1 respectively; among the 4 Chinese medicine guidelines, the number of guidelines reporting the above 7 areas in the RIGHT statement was 4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 2 and 2 respectively.Conclusion:There is still considerable room for improvement in the overall reporting quality of clinical guidelines on skin diseases published in journals in China during the past 10 years, and the RIGHT statement is recommended for improving the reporting quality in guideline development.
