Clinical trial evaluation is a systematic methodological approach and research field dedicated to the critical appraisal of clinical trials. It investigates the design, conduct, analysis, and reporting of trials to assess their internal and external validity, reliability, ethical integrity, and the clinical significance of their findings, serving as a crucial mechanism for ensuring evidence quality, informing healthcare decisions, and guiding regulatory processes.
