competing interests

Posted by saginur on 23 Jun 2012 at 15:29 GMT

As having a stake in an enterprise - such as GRADE - can potentially influence conclusions (Detsky AS), PLoS ONE ideally would report such competing interests as well.

Detsky AS. Sources of bias for authors of clinical practice guidelines. CMAJ. 2006 Oct 24;175(9): 1033, 1035.

No competing interests declared.
