Checklists for writing for publication
PRISMA (for systematic reviews and meta-analyses)
PRISMA consists of an evidence-based set of items for reporting in systematic reviews and meta-analyses. It focuses on the reporting of reviews evaluating randomised trials, but can also be used as a basis for reporting systematic reviews of other types of research, particularly evaluations of interventions.
CONSORT (randomised trials)
The CONSORT checklist covers parallel group randomised trials
CARE (case reports)
For completeness, transparency and data analysis in case reports and data from the point of care.
