Methods and resultsAll randomised controlled trials published in each issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine, the BMJ, JAMA, the Lancet, and the New England Journal of Medicine from 1 April 1999 to 31 March 2000 were identified. We focused on randomised controlled trials as they often have great impact on clinical medicine. Trials were excluded if they were follow up analyses of a previously published study. An abstractor used an explicit abstraction to record source (s) of study support, author-sponsor relationships, and the role of study sponsor. Disclosed author-sponsor relationships were coded as follows: advisory board, consultant/honoraria, educational activities/speakers bureau, employment, grants, patent/licences, and stock. Study authors who had an industry address were categorised as employees.
