The COMET Handbook: version 1.0 (2017, background): “However, a lack of adequate attention to the choice of outcomes in clinical trials has led to avoidable waste in both the production and reporting of research, and the outcomes included in research have not always been those that patients regard as most important or relevant [13].”

Interventions for increasing the use of shared decision making by healthcare professionals. (2018, background): “In conclusion, studies in this field of research are no different from those in other fields in that their methods may be inadequate; they may be too small; many fail to deal adequately with bias; and most are not replicated (Chalmers 2009).”
