Description
Compare unique registered and reported outcome labels.
Health-research records connect study identifiers, source assertions, outcome labels and timing conventions. A coverage count, literal match or recorded interval can expose missing information, while the quality of evidence, actual blinding and treatment effectiveness still require assessment of the original study.
Compare unique registered and reported outcome labels.
When to use this tool
Use Chiropractic Trial Registered Reported Gap when checking a supplied study-record, evidence-support or timing convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter registered, reported. Follow any array-alignment requirements below. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read omitted, unregistered, reportedRegistered. Use the output convention below.
Compare unique registered and reported outcome labels. Require each list unique; return registered-only omitted, reported-only unregistered and intersection reportedRegistered, preserving source-list order.1

} Limitations and assumptions
- Labels are supplied, not retrieved from a registry; completeness does not prove prespecification or absence of selective reporting.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Read the original research and registration records, appraise study design and bias, and consult qualified health professionals for conclusions that affect care.
