Abstract: Objective：To evaluate the reporting quality of clinical practice guidelines published in journals of mainland China in 2016, using Reporting Items for practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT) , in order to provide reference for Chinese scholars in reporting guidelines. Methods：The electronic databases of CBM (Chinese Biomedical Literature Database), CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) and Wan Fang Database from January to December 2016 were searched. Two authors independently selected studies, extracted data and the data was processed by Excel 2016 software. Results：Seventy-nine clinical practice guidelines were included. We found that among the seven domains of RIGHT, field one (basic information) had the highest reporting rate (52.7%). Field five (review and quality assurance) and field seven (funding, declaration and management of interest) had the lowest reporting rate (6.3%). All guidelines reported item 1a (identify the report as a guideline in the title). None of the guidelines reported item 9a-1 (how all contributors to the guideline development were selected), item 11b-1 (if the guideline developers used existing systematic reviews, reference these and describe how those reviews were identified and assessed), item 11b-2 (whether systematic reviews were updated), item 14a (whether values and preferences of the target population(s) were considered in the formulation of each recommendation), item 17 (whether the guideline was subjected to a quality assurance process) and item 18b (describe the role of funder(s) in the different stages of guideline development and in the dissemination and implementation of the recommendations). Conclusion：The reporting quality of clinical practice guidelines published in journals of mainland China in 2016 is low. It is suggested that the guideline developers should report guidelines in accordance with RIGHT during the guideline development process.
