“…Humphreys and colleagues (2013) reported that in highly-cited clinical trials, 40 % of identified patients with the condition under consideration were not enrolled, mainly due to restrictive eligibility criteria [29]. Variation in trial design (comparators, endpoints, duration of follow-up) as well as trial size limit their ability to detect low-frequency or long-term side-effects and adverse events [28]. Post-market surveillance reports are imperfectly collected, are not regularly amalgamated, and may not be publically accessible to support clinical-decision making by physicians or inform decisionmaking by patients.…”
