AAFP Joins Drive For All Clinical Trials to Register, Report Results

American Academy of Family Physicians - Quotes Steven Woloshin, professor of medicine, community and family medicine, and of the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy & Clinical Practice on the AllTrials campaign, which is calling for all past and present clinical trials in the United States to be registered and report their results. Woloshin notes that reporting trial results is as important as reporting the results of a political election. "Would you trust the results if only half of the votes were reported? Imagine if the winner of the election was the one who decided which half of the voting was reported," says Woloshin. "That would be crazy, but that's what the situation is when trials are not reported."
