The statistical quality of the contributions to "Strahlentherapie und Onkologie" is assessed, aiming for improvement of the journal and consequently its impact factor.
All 181 articles published during 1998 and 1999 in the categories "review", "original contribution", and "short communication" were analyzed concerning the appropriate consideration of Type II error.
Ninety-nine publications were excluded from analysis for different specified reasons. In none of the remaining 82 clinical publications Type II error was considered.
Authors, peer reviewers, and editors could contribute to improve the quality of the journal by setting value on adequate consideration of Type II error.
