Abstract
Background A recent study [1] assessed uptake of a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) Core Outcome Set (COS), published in 1994 [2], and found that by 2010 over 70% of RA trials reported the COS. The study examined trial reports but this method has proved to be lengthy and does not include current information. The aim of this study is to develop an efficient approach to assessing COS uptake with results based on up to date information.
