🔬 #PeerOnSky starts! “Clinical Trial Participants’ Views of the Risks and Benefits of Data Sharing” by Mello et al. (2018). They found participants value data sharing for science, but worry about privacy breaches. A 2018 perspective still relevant today! Does this reflect current views? #DataEthics

💬 Participants deserve to know! This Trials paper (doi.org/10.1186/s130...) pushes for sharing clinical trial results with participants—because their contributions matter. From a patient’s view, it’s about respect & transparency. Let’s dive in! #ClinicalTrials #Transparency #ShareCTD
Sharing clinical trial results with participants: important, expected and possible - Trials
Participants in clinical trials should be pro-actively offered the results of trials in which they have participated. This should be done in a way that is accessible and understandable for all partici...

🔍 Fascinating read! This PLOS Biology paper uncovers misuse of the NHANES dataset by potential paper mills—raising red flags on shared data integrity. Not about trials, but a must-discuss for research ethics. Check it: journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... #ResearchEthics #DataIntegrity #OpenScience
Explosion of formulaic research articles, including inappropriate study designs and false discoveries, based on the NHANES US national health database
The combination of AI and national health databases offers opportunities, but may also be exploited by unethical agents. This study shows that there has been an explosion of formulaic research article...

🙌 Big props to our SHARE-CTD scientist featured in STAT News! His insights on boosting clinical trial transparency in France (only 57% results shared, 2012-2022) are key to open science. 🔬 #SHARECTD #OpenScience #ClinicalTrials #DataSharing
"French trial sponsors are urged to bolster clinical trial transparency": STAT News covers the recent French report urging that study results be published in a registry. I was very happy to be interviewed and provide some context.
French trial sponsors are urged to bolster clinical trial transparency
