This is further troubling when one considers the relationships pharma has with journals, who are induced to publish such fictitious trials to increase the income of such journal publishers with the promise of the purchase of reprints from these journals combined with copious amounts of product advertisements in such journals. Science becomes less objective and impure because of this protocol that happens often.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1732132352927731247.post-66648783337789989622008-02-25T12:41:00.000-08:002008-02-25T12:41:00.000-08:00To add to the subject to this post, clinical resea...To add to the subject to this post, clinical research with pharma is a frightening operation. Such research has the sole objective of creating a marketing benefit, regardless of the authenticity of the data shared with others or who annotated the trials that will be published for those journals who are dependent on pharma money, and therefore obedient to them, since pharma is in fact the largest purchasers of reprints from them, as well as saturating these journals with way too may advertisements for thier products. Science use to be a rather sacred methodology until psychopaths corrupted its purpose.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1732132352927731247.post-46911235825331273352008-01-16T12:26:00.000-08:002008-01-16T12:26:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
