Selective reporting bias due to discrepancies between registered and published outcomes in osteoarthritis trials

Outcome reporting bias (ORB) occurs when outcomes planned in a study protocol are subsequently not reported or are partially reported. Our aim was to analyze ORB in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about conservative interventions for osteoarthritis (OA) by comparing registered protocols and published manuscripts, as well as association between study funding type and intervention type, and ORB in those RCTs.
