Dealing with conflicts of interest.
N Engl J Med 1985 Sep 19; 313:(12):749-51
Abstract:
Business arrangements have an increasing role in medical research and readers of medical journals need to be told about those arrangements. When important commercial associations are not disclosed, suspicions inevitably arise, and the public trust is jeopardized. In this editorial the New England Journal of Medicine announced its policy on conflict of interest.
