Clearer, more consistent Cochrane reviews are coming. From mid-November, we’re updating reporting formats to make reviews easier to use, more accessible, and more impactful. 🔗 www.cochrane.org/about-us/new...
Cochrane logo on a blue background with the text 'Cochrane aligns reporting formats for diverse types of reviews.' Below, a stack of books on a table in a library setting conveys a scholarly tone.

SR & MA findings: very few (<10%) clinical trials report adverse drug withdrawal event (ADWE) following #deprescribing, and reporting methods are inconsistent. Standardizing reporting is needed to generate more robust evidence on deRXing and ADWEs: agsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
