Review Meta AnalysisGreen tea, black tea consumption and risk of endometrial cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Several studies have assessed the association between green and black tea consumption and the risk of endometrial cancer (EC) and have yielded inconsistent results. ⋯ The results from this meta-analysis indicate that green tea, but not black tea, may be related to a reduction of EC risk. Large population-based randomized controlled trials and large prospective cohort studies are required to obtain a definitive conclusion and determine the mechanisms underlying this association.

Review
Registration status and outcome reporting of trials published in core headache medicine journals.
To evaluate randomized controlled trial (RCT) registration and outcome reporting compliance in core headache medicine journals. ⋯ Only about a quarter of the articles published in the core headache medicine journals are compliant with trial registration, but compliance has increased over time. Selective reporting of outcomes remains a problem, and very few trials met all 3 reporting standards assessed in this study. Efforts to improve the quality of trial reporting in the headache literature should continue.
