Comparing submitted vs published RCT abstracts eval'd at @nejm.org in 4 domains (design, outcome, AEs, conclusions). published abstracts improved in a mean 0.9 domains. More improvements observed in leading gen med vs 433 other journals (72 % vs 48%) www.acpjournals.org/... @cpkotanidis.bsky.social

Our comparisons of submitted and published abstracts suggest that peer review and editorial processes result in substantial revision of research reports. The findings reinforce the importance of editorial oversight in scientific publishing, highlighting its role in refining study design communication, reporting of outcomes, and overall clarity in research dissemination.
