The downstream effects on public health remain difficult to quantify. In order to identify and mitigate the potential effects of any one type of trial sponsor, we argue that these new methods should now be used routinely and systematically, in a process we call evidence surveillance.en-USJournal Article2017-05-1920132017-08-1510.1136/jech-2013-202344
