They outline how they will treat potential conflicts of interest related to: individual authors’ commitments, project support and commitments of editors, journal staff or reviewers. They will not review or publish articles based on studies that are conducted under condtions that allow the sponsor to have sole control of the data or to withhold publication.

As an advertising man, I can assure you that advertising which does not work does not continue to run. If experience did not show beyond doubt that the great majority of doctors are splendidly responsive to current [prescription drug] advertising, new techniques would be devised in short order. And if, indeed, candor, accuracy, scientific completeness, and a permanent ban on cartoons came to be essential for the successful promotion of [prescription] drugs, advertising would have no choice but to comply.
