Merriel et al. analysed the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) for trials that are within the broad remit of obstetricians and gynaecologists, and conducted in low- and middle-income countries between 2012 and 2014. They identified 509 registered trials evenly distributed across obstetrics and gynaecology.
