Most active clinical researchers and physicians have little formal training in research methods.12 Even the editors and peer reviewers of Chinese medical journals do not know or ignore reporting criteria, such as CONSORT, STROBE, STARD, and PRISMA.13 Preclinical trial registration has not been essential for publication, even though registration results in trials that are more rigorous, effi ciently conducted, and ethically sound.14 To counter these problems, I have several suggestions. Clinical researchers in China should be formally trained and accredited in clinical trial methodology. Reporting guidelines have been translated into Chinese and pub￾lished partly in Chinese,15 and are now available online.1,7 Researchers need to improve study design by adopting the advice in relevant reporting guidelines to reduce bias. National level platforms need to be established for consultation and administration of multicentre clinical trials. Journal editors must require documentation of ethics approval and clinical trial registration before manuscript acceptance. Journals in China that are members of the ICMJE16 should obey international criteria for publication. Finally, the Chinese Government should increase its support of clinical research, in the form of clinical research grants for physicians, the creation of national repositories of clinical cases and samples of serum and tissues, and fi nancial support for universities in remote areas to buy literature databases.
