Interpretation of the Reporting Guidance of Statistical Analysis Plan( SAP) and Its Implications to Clinical Trials of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Statistical analysis plan( SAP) is one of the methods to strengthen study transparency
data credibility
operating standardization
results validity and conclusion acceptability for comprehensively and informatively recording the principles of analysis described in clinical research protocols
including the statistical analysis of major variables
minor variables
and other data. The guidelines for SAP report content include management information( 11 items/sub-items)
research profiles( 2 items)
research methods( 9 items/sub-items)
statistical principles( 8 items/sub-items)
trials subjects( 8 items/sub-items) and analysis( 17 items/sub-items). The publication of SAP can improve the efficiency of clinical research
reduce unnecessary waste of research funds
provide a platform for the exchange of clinical trials
improve the transparency of design from report to report
