"When drug companies fund research published in prestigious medical journals or give money to physician or PhD speakers at medical meetings or at upscale restaurants, practicing physicians should be very skeptical and hyper-critical of their findings and recommendations. The conflicts of interest are real and their conclusions are frequently suspect. The American Medical Association has addressed this problem as have academic medical centers and scholarly medical journals. Their solution is currently that simply disclosing conflicts of interest is sufficient...Busy doctors are in no position to evaluate shoddy research."
