Posted: November 23, 2024
The article explores the adoption of Open Science Practices (OSPs) in Randomised Clinical Trials (RCTs) related to dental caries. Findings reveal that while 64.8% of articles adopted at least one OSP, no individual practice was adopted by more than 50% of the articles. Commonly adopted practices included protocol registration, reporting guidelines, and publishing open access. Recommendations for OSP adoption were often aligned with these practices. Older articles showed lower adoption rates, while higher impact factor journals were associated with increased adoption. Overall, there is a growing trend towards embracing OSPs in RCTs on dental caries, emphasizing the importance of research integrity and quality in the field of dentistry.
