The link I provided discussed that study and its impact and claimed that it certainly doesn't reverse any meta studies.
- tptacek 5y agoI'm not sure we're talking about the same thing. Any meta-study that included the data from that paper has obviously been corrupted by it. And it was widely used in those studies.
- tptacek 5y agoJust by way of example, the FLCCC's comprehensive review article, which you cited favorably above, includes dozens of citations to the now-withdrawn Algazzar study.
- srtjstjsj 5y agoDo "citations" affect the data? Citations are just for anti-plagiarism and for clout building, not science.
- gandalfgreybeer 5y agoIf they are studies that are performing meta-analyses (and most of the studies citing the fraudulent article are), yes.
- srtjstjsj 5y agoDo meta analyses not control for the influence of outlier studies? Could I just make up a phony result with 100000000x alleged effect and drown out all other studies in every meta analysis?
- tptacek 5y agoSee the link at the top of the thread. That's more or less what happened here.
