Innovations in Statistical Review at European Urology.

Abstract:

:European Urology has established three principles for improving the quality of statistics in papers published in our journal: (1) systematic guidance for authors based on common statistical errors in urology research; (2) all papers with substantive statistics are reviewed by a statistician; and (3) ongoing innovation with respect to statistical reporting.
