EQUATOR seminar:
Getting your trial published: CONSORT 2010 and other reporting guidelines

Preparing a publication of a randomised trial to ensure all important details are included in the report is a very demanding task. This seminar will help you to increase your chances of preparing a first class paper – it will discuss major problems in trial reporting, identify all relevant guidelines useful for manuscript preparation and present the views of journal editors regarding the expected quality of submitted manuscripts.
Presenters include:
Professor Doug Altman, Director, Centre for Statistics in Medicine, University of Oxford
Dr Sally Hopewell, Senior Research Fellow, CONSORT Group, Centre for Statistics in Medicine, Oxford
Mrs Allison Hirst, Research Fellow, EQUATOR Network, Centre for Statistics in Medicine, Oxford
