Inclusion criteria

Electronic searches

Bibliographic databases

Separate detailed search strategies are prepared for individual databases and all resulting

citations are downloaded into reference management software. The title, keywords and abstract

(where available) are screened by the Information Specialist, and full paper copies of all reports

meeting the scope and topics of the group and which, from the information available, may be a

report of a randomised trial, controlled clinical trial or systematic review, are obtained. All

reports meeting the following criteria are then coded for inclusion in the Trials Register.

Randomised controlled trials (RCTs): studies in which there is a clear statement that

patients or treatment periods were allocated at random.

Controlled clinical trials (CCTs): (1) possible RCTs: statement that the trial was double-

blind, single-blind, placebo controlled but no use of the word 'random'; (2) definite CCTs:

clear statement that the trial used a quasi-random method of allocation (for example,

alternation, date of birth, record number, etc.); (3) possible CCTs: statement that there

was a control group but does not mention how it was allocated, for example, patients

were divided into two groups.

Systematic reviews: we include all reports of high-quality non-Cochrane systematic

reviews meeting our scope. These must include a methods section, search strategy,

detailed inclusion criteria and may or may not include statistical analysis of the results.

Registers of on-going trials and research grants registers

Appropriate search strategies are developed, and all the available information on a relevant trial

is obtained. If possible the principle investigator is contacted to obtain a full trial protocol.

Handsearching

All publications are searched from cover to cover. Relevant trials are identified using the above

criteria and full paper copies are obtained.

Search strategies for the identification of studies

Electronic searches

Using the facilities of the University of Edinburgh, the NHS Scotland Knowledge Network, the

Commercial Scientific and Technical Information Network (STN), individual database

providers, and miscellaneous grey literature resources we have performed searches of a number

of bibliographic databases. We developed separate detailed search strategies for each database

based on controlled vocabulary or free text terms or both, and the search strategies are updated

regularly to include new controlled vocabulary terms. The most recent search strategies and

years searched for each database are detailed below. All resulting references are downloaded

into reference management software and relevant trials are added to the Cochrane Stroke Group

Trials Register. These new records are then accessioned to Cochrane Central Register of

Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) via the CRS-Web portal.

Bibliographic databases

Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL)

The following search strategy is run monthly in each new issue of The Cochrane Library.

Searched from Issue 5 of 12, 25 May 2020. Last searched: Ongoing.

All reference files retrieved from CENTRAL searches contributing to Cochrane Systematic

Review searches are screened for new trials and references. The original CENTRAL search

strategy was discontinued on 14 June 2009. It was revised and reinstated as of 6 June 2016 and

the intervening years have been retroactively searched. The search was further revised between

January and May 2020 to account for additions and changes to the Medical Subject Headings

(MeSH) controlled vocabulary and newly identified relevant uncontrolled terms.

Constructed using the MEDLINE Ovid platform between January and May 2020, this search

strategy is designed to retrieve all potential references in stroke healthcare and medicine

(including transient ischaemic attack, cerebral small vessel disease, and subarachnoid

haemorrhage) on in the MEDLINE database on the Ovid platform. The search strategy contains

16 (or/1-15) separate search lines and incorporates a combination of Medical Subject Headings

(MeSH) from the National Library of Medicine, uncontrolled vocabulary/keywords in the Text

Word (.tw) field, and Boolean operators to maximise sensitivity and recall. The Text Word in

the MEDLINE Ovid field includes both the Title (.ti) and Abstract (.ab) fields. This strategy can

be used as a stand-alone search strategy or combined with additional subject specific strategies

or filters.

Embase (Ovid) Search strategy from 25 May 2020. Last searched: Ongoing.

All reference files retrieved from Embase searches contributing to Cochrane Systematic Review

searches are screened for new trials and references. The original Embase search strategy was

discontinued on 14 June 2009. It was revised and reinstated as of 6 June 2016 and the

intervening years have been retroactively searched. The search was further revised to account

for additions and changes to the Emtree controlled vocabulary and newly identified relevant

uncontrolled terms.
