Despite broad efforts to improve the reporting of biomedical research, no reporting guideline exists for primary care (PC) research. Little is known about current reporting practices or how well reports meet the needs of varied users in PC.
To map the published literature on PC research reporting: quality, strengths and weaknesses, recommendations and efforts to improve reporting.
Scoping review of literature across seven major databases and search engines to identify all articles on PC research reporting published in English, 2000-20. An additional secondary search of references of these 25 articles and consideration of expert panel suggestions. Structured data extraction by multiple reviewers using a predetermined form.
Search yielded 2847 unique titles, of which 126 underwent full-text review and 25 met inclusion criteria. Publications included opinion pieces (9), systematic reviews (5), methods articles (2), literature reviews (4), qualitative studies (4) and surveys (1). Studies focussed on a variety of topics and research methods. All publications identified the need for improved reporting and recommended items to include in reports. Most commonly, publications cited the need for more detailed reporting on the context of study interventions, clinical settings and health care systems. Most publications endorsed the use of reporting guidelines and recognized the unique needs of PC research reporting.
Published research and opinion identify unique needs for PC research reports and support new guidance to improve the validity, generalizability and application of study findings.
尽管为改善生物医学研究报告付出了广泛努力，但初级保健（PC）研究尚无报告指南。对于当前的报告实践以及报告在多大程度上满足PC领域不同用户的需求，我们知之甚少。
梳理已发表的关于PC研究报告的文献：质量、优势与不足、改进报告的建议及相关努力。
对七个主要数据库和搜索引擎中的文献进行范围综述，以识别2000年至2020年期间以英文发表的所有关于PC研究报告的文章。对这25篇文章的参考文献进行额外的二次检索，并考虑专家小组的建议。由多名评审员使用预先确定的表格进行结构化数据提取。
检索得到2847个独特标题，其中126篇进行了全文审查，25篇符合纳入标准。出版物包括观点文章（9篇）、系统评价（5篇）、方法学文章（2篇）、文献综述（4篇）、定性研究（4篇）和调查（1篇）。研究聚焦于各种主题和研究方法。所有出版物都指出需要改进报告，并推荐了报告中应包含的项目。最常见的是，出版物提到需要更详细地报告研究干预的背景、临床环境和医疗保健系统。大多数出版物支持使用报告指南，并认识到PC研究报告的独特需求。
已发表的研究和观点确定了PC研究报告的独特需求，并支持制定新的指南以提高研究结果的有效性、可推广性和应用价值。
