For researchers submitting trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov, the Adverse Events module is one of four mandatory results sections. It requires reporting in three primary categories: All-Cause Mortality: A table tracking all deaths that occurred during the study, regardless of cause. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): A tabular summary of events resulting in death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization, or significant disability. Other Adverse Events: A table for non-serious events that exceed a specific frequency threshold, such as 5% within any study arm.
Adverse Events Module path is as follows:
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Event Groups
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Serious Events
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Other Events

| Online Writing Tool, Experimental Arm | Participants will be provided the corresponding CONSORT item(s), key elements from the explanation and elaboration of the CONSORT 2010 and NPT extension along with examples of good reporting online writing tool: The writing tool contained the main CONSORT item and extension items for non pharmacological treatments along with bullet points indicating key elements to report from the explanation and elaboration publications of the CONSORT.

| Writing With no Specific Support, Control Arm | The control intervention will only consist of the title of the domain and a large text box where the participant will be asked to describe this part of the study for their study protocol. The participant will also have the option to indicate any important or necessary information that is not available in the provided study protocol. writing with no specific support: The control tool simply provided the domain or section heading with a space too write. Similar to for the experimental intervention, participants were to indicate information they felt important to report but unavailable in the provided study protocols. | None | None | 0 | 41 | 0 | 0 | View |
