Description

Shaelyn Ward and six co-authors checked the author rules of leading journals on aging, in a study from twenty twenty-three. Journals can ask authors to follow reporting guides and to register trials before they start. Such rules cut bias and make research easier to trust and check.

The team read the rules of one hundred top journals in the field. Fewer than half pointed authors to the main guide for trial reports. Many journals said nothing about some common guides at all. Nearly half said nothing about trial registration. The authors urge editors to press for clear rules, so reports in the field become more open and complete.
