Abstract
We aimed to analyze gastrointestinal guidelines to assess quality of evidence and strength of recommendation. We abstracted clinical practice guidelines and guidance statements from 4 American GI societies (ACG, AGA, ASGE and AASLD) and the United States Multi-Society Task Forc. Of the 3,609 statements analyzed, only 13% were supported by high level of evidence. The number of statements published annually is increasing, but the level of evidence supporting recommendations is declining over time. This analysis highlights the need for high quality research in GI to support the development of stronger evidence-based guideline statements.
