A review of 285 review articles from 10 top psychiatric and 2 general medicine journals finds that reviews in psychiatric journals were far less likely to disclose conflicts of interest than were reviews in general medicine journals (32% of articles, 18% of authors in psychiatric vs. 64% of articles, 40% of authors in general medicine journals.) Results are in the February issue of Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease.
