CRD42023458960) included English-language PAP trials (2005\u20132024) identified via Embase, CENTRAL, PubMed and reference searches. Reporting quality was assessed using the CONSORT Harms extension, categorised as either high (17\u201321), moderate (12\u201316), low (7\u201311) or very low (0\u20136). Randomised controlled trials underwent risk of bias analysis, and descriptive statistics compared side-effects across sources.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S2056472425108478_as4\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Twenty-four trials were included. Reporting quality was high in six studies, moderate in four, low in nine and very low in five.

Variability in reporting hindered comparisons between articles and ClinicalTrials.gov, underscoring the need for standardisation. Overall, there was no evidence of systematic underreporting of side-effects in published articles compared with trial registers.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S2056472425108478_as5\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Side-effects reporting in PAP trials is inconsistent but is improving over time. Existing evidence has a high risk of bias. Future trials should align with best-practice guidelines for side-effects reporting.
