“针刺临床试验干预措施报告标准”(Standards,for Reporting Interventions in Clinical Trials of Acupuncture,STRICTA)于2001年和2002年在5种期刊上发表。该指南以对照试验检查清单及解释的形式供作者和期刊编辑使用,旨在提高针刺临床试验报告的质量,尤其是对其中干预措施的报告,因而有助于对这些试验的解释和重复。随后对STRICTA的应用及影响的述评都强调了STRICTA的价值,也提出了改进和修订的建议。
为使修订过程顺利进地,STRICTA工作组、CONSORT工作组和中国Cochrane中心于2008年开始合作,召集成立的包含47名成员的专家小组对清单的修改稿提出了电子版反馈意见。在后来于弗莱堡(Freiburg)召开的见面会上,由21名专家组成的工作组进一步修订了STRICTA对照检查清单,并计划如何对其进行发布。
新的STRICTA对照检查清单作为CONSORT的正式扩展版,包含6项条目及17条二级条目。这些条目为报告针刺治疗的合理性、针刺的细节、治疗方案、其他干预措施、治疗师的背景以及对照或对照干预提供了指南。而且,作为修订工作的一部分,对每一条目作了详尽解释,并针对每一条目给出了良好报告的实例。此外,STRICTA中的“对照”(controlled)一词被替换成了“临床”(clinical),以示STRICTA适用于更广泛的各类临床评价设计,包括非对照结局研究和病例报道。修订的STRICTA对照检查清单有望与CONSORT声明及其非药物治疗扩展版一起共同提高针刺临床试验的报告质量。
