[See additional file 3: Test of the 2-category coding system] These preliminary quantitative analyses suggest that the 2-category system is applicable, but replication by many more raters is needed with a large sample of instructions to reviewers, reviewers' reports and instructions to authors.
A sample of instructions to examiners for one of the stations is shown in Table 2.> -wrap-foot>> -wraPCPSot> Patientatient Care and Procedural Skills, PBLI: Practice-Based Learning and Improvement, ICS: Interpersonal and Communication Skills, Pro: Professionalism, SBP: System-Based Practice.
A sample of the instruction sheet and recording form can be found at www.http://sydney.edu.au/medicine/fmrc/publications/sand-abstracts/132-Multimorbidity.pdf GPs were asked, "Does the patient have any of the following chronic diseases/problems?" Common chronic conditions were listed (tick boxes) with additional free text fields to record other unlisted chronic conditions.
Large longitudinal studies are capable of looking at a representative sample of martial arts instruction and a representative sample of students.
At the end of each four-month survey interval, NHS trust record-keeping departments were asked to collate the sample of patients using sampling instructions adapted from those used for the national Inpatient Survey to allow the addition of ward information.

Possible explanations for these discrepancies can be the different populations studied (US inpatients versus healthy subjects from the Netherlands) or different methods used (strict or random sampling order, type of instructions).
Over the course of the workshop, students returned several times to specific lab stations to continue and complete various aspects of sample preparation and instruction on mass spectrometry instruments and software.
The first part will be an exploratory study to examine the uptake of TREND and generate a description of where and how TREND is used by authors, and how TREND is used by a sample of journals by examining their instructions to authors.
