METHODS <\/strong>A quantitative analysis was carried out on articles selected from four journals over a period of five years, classified on the basis of the study design. The univariate (ANOVA) analysis was used to investigate the mean differences in terms of number of types of article within the different journals and over the years. RESULTS <\/strong>A final number of 478 articles were included in the study. In particular, (no. = 17; 3.55%) were Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) and (no. = 5; 1.04%) were Controlled Clinical Trials. The articles published more frequently were classified as Clinical practice (no. = 172; 35.98%), followed by Case Reports\/Case Series <10 subjects (no. = 68; 14.22%), Narrative Reviews (no. = 61; 12.76%), Cohort Studies (no. = 33; 6.90%), Validation studies (no. = 23; 4.81%), and Clinical Trials >10 subjects (no. = 16; 3.34%). Systematic Reviews were published very rarely (no. = 7; 1.46%), followed by (no. = 1; 0.20%) Case-Control Study. No Meta-Analysis was published. The remaining (no. = 75; 15,69) articles were classified as Others. DISCUSSION <\/strong>This study shows that the methodological quality of journals specifically dealing with Osteopathy is equal to the standards observed in other areas of Medicine. CONCLUSION <\/strong>The distribution of the types of articles in the present sample of journals is not similar to that of other scientific journals, with the exception of Observational\/descriptive study designs<\/p>\n Keywords:<\/strong> Osteopathic Medicine; Clinical Research; Evidence\u2013based Practice<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”PDF” title=”PDF ” open=”off” closed_toggle_background_color=”#0c71c3″ closed_toggle_text_color=”#ffffff” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” disabled=”off”]<\/p>\n PDF<\/a><\/strong>PSalva<\/span><\/p>\n Salva<\/span><\/p>\n Salva<\/span><\/p>\n Salva<\/span><\/p>\n Salva<\/span><\/p>\n Salva<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_text admin_label=”Testo” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_style=”solid” disabled=”off”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_gallery admin_label=”Galleria ” gallery_ids=”3293″ fullwidth=”on” posts_number=”1″ show_title_and_caption=”on” show_pagination=”on” background_layout=”light” auto=”on” auto_speed=”3000″ use_border_color=”on” border_color=”#f2f2f2″ border_width=”1px” border_style=”solid” disabled=”off”] [\/et_pb_gallery][et_pb_post_nav admin_label=”Navigazione post articoli” in_same_term=”off” hide_prev=”off” hide_next=”off” title_font_size=”14px” title_letter_spacing=”0px” title_line_height=”1em” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_width=”1px” border_style=”solid” disabled=”off”] [\/et_pb_post_nav][et_pb_text admin_label=”Testo” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_style=”solid” disabled=”off”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section admin_label=”Sezione” transparent_background=”off” background_color=”#f2f2f2″ allow_player_pause=”off” inner_shadow=”off” parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on” custom_padding=”0px|0px|0px|0px” make_fullwidth=”off” use_custom_width=”off” width_unit=”off” custom_width_px=”1080px” custom_width_percent=”80%” make_equal=”off” use_custom_gutter=”off” fullwidth=”off” specialty=”off” disabled=”off”][et_pb_row admin_label=”Riga” make_fullwidth=”off” use_custom_width=”off” width_unit=”off” custom_width_px=”1080px” custom_width_percent=”80%” use_custom_gutter=”off” gutter_width=”3″ allow_player_pause=”off” parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on” make_equal=”off” parallax_1=”off” parallax_method_1=”on” parallax_2=”off” parallax_method_2=”on” parallax_3=”off” parallax_method_3=”on” parallax_4=”off” parallax_method_4=”on” disabled=”off”][et_pb_column type=”2_3″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Testo” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_style=”solid” disabled=”off”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Testo” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_style=”solid” disabled=”off”]<\/p>\n segreteria.giosbe@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n![\"80x151\"](\"https:\/\/giosbejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/80x151.png\")
