Yes, the minscule benefits of many drugs. I was alerted to this problem by Midwestern Doctor and I've done qutie a bit of reading, especially on the topic of statins. Those are a textbook example of a drug that apparently does have a benefit -- a very tiny one, and one that may be erased if one considers adverse effects. What is beyond all doubt is that each study costs hundreds of millions of dollars, usually paid by Pharma, billions of dollars of potential or actual profits are at stake, and that the entire supply chain, from the researchers who do the tests to the doctor who writes your prescription, is ethically compromised. It's considered impolite to discuss these for some reason.
