TUESDAY, Sept. 14 (HealthDay News) -- Nearly half of U.S. surgeons who
received at least $1 million in payments from companies that make
orthopedic devices such as artificial joints did not disclose their
financial ties when they published articles on such devices in medical
journals, a new study has found.
This means that medical professionals and others who read the articles
aren't aware of conflicts of interest that could affect patient care,
explained the researchers at the Institute on Medicine as a Profession
(IMAP), a think tank at the Columbia University College of Physicians and
Surgeons in New York City.
"The findings raise troubling questions about undisclosed payments or
royalties and other fees from medical device companies that could lead to
biased scientific conclusions," study senior author David Rothman,
president of IMAP, said in an institute news release.
snip
Of the 95 journal articles published by those 41 highly paid orthopedic
consultants after they received their large payments -- nearly all of them
about a medical device -- less than half disclosed a financial tie between
the author and orthopedic device maker. None of the articles revealed the
large amounts of industry money received by the authors, the investigators
found.
snip
A recent review of hundreds of clinical drug trials conducted between 2000
and 2006, for example, found that studies sponsored by the pharmaceutical
industry were more likely to publish favorable results than those with no
financial interest in the findings.
