Abstract

Objective: To appraise clinical practice guidelines for anaplastic thyroid carcinoma treatment and management using the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II tool.

Methods: A literature search was performed using MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane, and Google Scholar. Four reviewers evaluated clinical practice guidelines utilising Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II, with domain scores requiring a threshold of greater than 60 per cent. Inter-reviewer agreement was evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficients.

Results: Twelve clinical practice guidelines were evaluated after application of inclusion and exclusion criteria. There were two "high-", four "average-", and six "low-" quality clinical practice guidelines. The domains with the highest scores were "clarity of presentation" (69.44 ± 16.75) and "scope and purpose" (68.87 ± 20.88), while "applicability" (7.12 ± 6.17) and "rigor of development" (50.26 ± 20.77) had the lowest scores. Intraclass correlation coefficients showed a high level of inter-reviewer agreement (0.689-0.924; good-excellent).

Conclusion: These results showcased wide variability in quality amongst guidelines for the treatment and management of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma. These findings necessitate greater standardisation among clinical practice guidelines and greater focus on the applicability of recommended practices.

甲状腺无节细胞癌的治疗和管理：临床实践指南评估》。

目的：应用《研究与评价指南ⅱ》评价甲状腺间变性癌治疗与管理的临床实践指南。方法：通过MEDLINE/PubMed、Embase、Scopus、Cochrane和谷歌Scholar进行文献检索。四名审稿人使用《研究与评估指南评估II》评估临床实践指南，领域评分要求阈值大于60%。审稿人间的一致性使用类内相关系数进行评估。结果：应用纳入和排除标准对12条临床实践指南进行评价。有两个“高”，四个“一般”和六个“低”质量的临床实践指南。得分最高的是“表述清晰性”（69.44±16.75）和“范围与目的”（68.87±20.88），得分最低的是“适用性”（7.12±6.17）和“开发严谨性”（50.26±20.77）。类内相关系数显示高水平的审稿人间一致性(0.689-0.924；好)。结论：这些结果显示了甲状腺间变性癌治疗和管理指南的质量差异很大。这些发现需要在临床实践指南之间进行更大的标准化，并更加关注推荐做法的适用性。
