- Brief Summary
We identified 1058 published SR protocols in the PROSPERO. Of them, 101 protocols were in prognostic or diagnostic categories. We identified 45 records through the Web of Science citation search. Total seven SRs (0.66%) of over 65,000 patients' data were included. No Cochrane review was identified. The reporting characteristics were highly variable especially for relevant items of the CHARMS in their protocols. Over half of the reviews did not even pre-specify the outcome to be predicted. Moreover, one study multiplied the outcome at the review phase and did not mention the change in the review.
