Abstract


Discussing findings of a clinical trial gives an opportunity to the investigator to elaborate the meaning of the findings of the trial. It should consist of the major findings, interpretation of the results in light of the available literature, theory and practice, limitations, generalizability of the findings and its implication, and way forwards for future research. One should avoid repetition of results in the discussion and give critical appraisal of the findings in such a way as to give a true picture of the internal and external validity of the clinical trial.
Keywords: Discussion, CONSORT, Interpretation, limitation, Generalizability.
