Effectiveness Or Surgery Procedures Unclear Because Of Lack Of Clear Clinical Trial Objectives

Surgery Clinical Trial Results Selectively Reported by Kathryn Doyle.  Reuters.  March 14, 2013.

Selective reporting of positive surgical procedure results is worse than such reporting of clinical drug trials.  Clinical aims for trials are generally placed into a registry before recruiting participants.  However this study found that up to half of the surgical trials were not registered properly.
