BMJ - "Frequency of discrepancies in retracted clinical trial reports versus unretracted reports: blinded case-control study"

 "Frequency of discrepancies in retracted clinical trial reports versus unretracted reports: blinded case-control study"

"Conclusions Discrepancies in published trial reports should no longer be assumed to be unimportant. Scientists, blinded to retraction status and with no specialist skill in the field, identify significantly more discrepancies in retracted than unretracted reports of clinical trials. Discrepancies could be an early and accessible signal of unreliability in clinical trial reports."
