Paid to Peer-Review: Physicians Reviewing Top Medical Journals Receive Billions from Big Pharma

More than half of physicians who peer-reviewed research for the most influential medical journals received substantial payments from pharmaceutical and medical device companies, according to a new analysis. These undisclosed financial ties raise concerns over whether reviewers can remain impartial when evaluating industry-backed studies, the very studies that shape modern healthcare guidelines and treatment standards.

Who in the fuck E V E R set this guideline? Honestly, the entire healthcare industry has turned to complete shit!

All smoke and mirrors. Look after your own health with the old ways such as nettle root tincture for prostrate issues. All you need to know is out there. Take some time and protect yourself and your kin. Leave pharma to the NPCs

Wait until people look into the validity of most physics publications in the last few generations. Seriously, the entire publication system is a racket.

Let me give you one example and you can take it from there. Can anyone repeat the "age old" dynamic friction relation we teach first year science, math and engineering students? This relation is often shown as the following formula:

F = u N

Where: F is the force of dynamic friction, u is the coefficient of dynamic friction and N is the normal force (in a static sense, it's the weight of the object).

Nobody can reproduce a graph or any test data that is even measurable (until debatably, recently) or shows anything near any relation without a bunch of other factors in the model. Try telling any physics professor this. Now, just imagine how jewed up faculties like "astronomy" and all those are.
