Contemporary observations indicate insufficient quality in the reporting of statistical data. Despite the publication of the SAMPL guidelines in 2015, they have not been widely adopted. The aim of this article is to highlight the incorporation of SAMPL Guidelines in the statistical reviews of articles related to clinical medicine, as well as the changes implemented by authors in revised manuscripts as a result of such guidance. An additional objective is to provide recommendations for biomedical journals regarding the necessity of integrating SAMPL Guidelines into their daily practices. ⋯ To improve the quality of statistical reporting in biomedical journals, greater emphasis should be placed on implementing SAMPL Guidelines.
