| RCTs (randomized controlled trials) accepted for publication in JAMA or the Annals of Internal Medicine
are now being co-published on RCT Bank. These entries can be browsed on
the web at RCT Presenter.
Trials are entered into RCT Bank using Bank-a-Trial, a web-based program for
secure trial-bank entry that also helps users code aspects of the trial using
terms from the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS). |

| description |
RCT Presenter forms part of an integrated, electronic trial-reporting system
designed to support the registration and publication of randomized trials as
structured knowledge bases (trial banks).
The system aims to support improved and standardized trial reporting; easier
and more accurate trial retrieval, and direct computer access to summary-level trials data.
