Summary of Findings | 30% of included reviews reported information on the funding sources of included trials, including 20% that reported information on trial funding for all included trials and 11% that reported for some, but not all, trials. Only 11% provided any information on trial author-industry financial ties or trial author-industry employment. Information on trial funding and trial author-industry ties was reported in one to seven locations within each review, with no consistent reporting location observed. |
