Developing AI models to check CONSORT reporting guidelines in randomized controlled trials is feasible. A fine-tuned PubMedBERT model shows promise for improving reporting quality and manuscript completeness.
Area of Science:
- Medical informatics
- Clinical trial reporting
Background:
- The CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) guidelines aim to improve the quality of randomized controlled trial (RCT) publications.
- Automated methods for checking CONSORT adherence can streamline editorial workflows and enhance reporting accuracy.
Conclusions:
- Fine-tuned PubMedBERT models can effectively recognize most CONSORT checklist items in RCT publications, though further improvements are possible.
- These automated models can support journal editorial processes and CONSORT adherence checks.
- Enhanced reporting quality and completeness of manuscripts can be facilitated by these AI-driven tools.
