TRIPOD for Abstracts appears in Spring 2020!

TRIPOD for Abstracts is an extension of TRIPOD. TRIPOD for Abstracts is a checklist with guidance for reporting abstracts of diagnostic or prognostic prediction model studies in journals and in conference abstracts. Although the TRIPOD Statement provides general recommendations for reporting titles and abstracts, more detailed guidance appears to be desirable to help readers and reviewers identify the relevant studies – for example in systematic reviews of prediction model studies – and to help deciding whether they need to read the full text.
