“…Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is commonly known as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), which refers to placing anticoagulant blood in the ESR tube (18)(19).In addition, the speed of ESR can also assist in observing the changes in the disease. Some scholars pointed out in the study, in rheumatic diseases, tuberculosis ESR accelerated the degree and severity of the disease.…”

“…Thus, the most common strategy to manage and address COI is the disclosure of conflict ( Boyd and Bero, 2007 ; Glaser and Bero, 2005 ). To improve the management of COI, an enforcement system called “Open Payments” was adopted in the United States ( Slentz et al ., 2019 ; Tisherman et al ., 2021 ). The system is an open database that contains information on payments to academic researchers made by the industry ( Chabner and Bates, 2018 ).…”

The literature has shown some bias in research about the effectiveness and efficacy of medications due to the influence of the pharmaceutical industry. Thus, researchers' understanding of conflict of interest (COI) is substantial and may influence the quality of scientific research. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to assess pharmacy researchers' awareness and perception about COI in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and the factors affecting their disclosure of COI. In this cross-sectional study, a convenience sample of pharmacy researchers from the MENA region was surveyed for their awareness and perception about the principles of COI. The questionnaire was divided into three main sections. The first section assesses the demographic information of the study participants; the second section assesses researchers' awareness and practices in dealing with COI; and, finally, the third section assesses participants' perception about COI. The questionnaire was uploaded on the Google Forms electronic platform, and it was distributed to the potential study participants via their professional emails. Finally, logistic analysis was used to evaluate predictors affecting COI disclosure by the study participants. A total of 271 pharmacy researchers participated in this study. Researchers were distributed based on their academic rank as follows: 63 professors (23.3%), 59 associate professors (21.8%), 97 assistant professors (35.8%), and 52 lecturers (19.2%). The majority of researchers indicated that they were familiar with the concept of COI (88.9%), and they agreed that the existence of COI should be disclosed by all authors (84.5%). About 33.2% of the study participants did not know if their institution had a policy for COI. About half of the participants (48.70%) believed that disclosure is the only way for the management of COI. However, only 41.7% of them (n = 113) indicated that they had disclosed COI in their published research. Finally, participants who have a collaboration with the industry showed a significantly lower tendency to disclose their COI than those who do not have any partnership with the industry (OR = 0.471, p = 0.017). The majority of the pharmacy researchers from the MENA region are familiar with the principles of COI, but a lower percentage of them disclose their COI in their published research. Efforts should be made to educate researchers about the importance of disclosing COI, which might reduce the potential of bias in their published research.

“…Asking if there are COI related to the work being presented instead of whether the authors have any COI to report can be misconstrued and left to the authors to interpret. 4,[8][9][10][11] Cherla et al 9 randomly selected 590 medical and surgical research articles from PubMed and found a 69% discordance rate between industry and self-report in COI disclosure. Tisherman et al 4 studied the disclosures of authors of the articles published in Injury, The Journal of Orthopedic Trauma, and The Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery between 2015 and 2018.…”

“…3 However, a recent report of scientists altering components of a study in response to pressure from a funding source is of great concern. 4 The scientific community and the public rely on the peer review process of scientific journals to assess the scientific validity of data and the presentation of results to ensure appropriate messaging to the lay media. The ultimate assessment of the validity of research and its applicability to an individual patient requires a review of all study components, including the disclosure of potential conflicts of interest (COI).…”
