Comparative diagnostic test accuracy study, a type of diagnostic accuracy test, aims to compare accuracy of two or more index tests in a study. The application of GRADE in comparative test accuracy differs from single test accuracy, mainly including the selection of appropriate comparative study designs, additional criteria for judging risk of bias, and the consequences of using comparative measures of test accuracy. The study focuses on basic principles and methods of GRADE approach in systematic reviews of comparative test accuracy to promote the understanding and application of the method by domestic scholars.
