You can’t build public health policy upon 🍒 picked studies & call it “evidenced based, or best practices” by fudging data.
You can however, call it conflict of interest, agenda, propaganda, undermining of research/practice of medicine w/ outcomes directly impact patient’s lives. Image
It’s pertinent to demand disclosure regarding the content/ findings of omitted “unpublished studies,” why were they not published, who made those decisions & how many other agencies & what other studies under @OIGatHHS oversight have ongoing non-compliance?
