POLITICS OF PUBLISHING

Wager E. 2006. Publishing clinical trial results: The future beckons. PLoS Clin Trials 1(6): e31.

Why do we publish clinical trials results? Is the present format for reporting results from randomized clinical trials in peer-reviewed journals still efficient and effective? The advantages offered by alternative models of publications are presented and the implications for trial sponsors and medical journals are discussed in detail. Problems, opportunities and possible solutions on reporting results are clearly pointed out in the ever changing scenario of online publications.
