Abstract

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Methodology). The objectives are as follows:

The primary objectives are to investigate to what degree:

- funding of systematic reviews by drug, device, and imaging companies and authors' other financial conflicts of interest are associated with conclusions that are favourable to the sponsor.

The secondary objective is to investigate to what degree:
- funding of systematic reviews by drug, device, and imaging companies and authors' other financial conflicts of interest are associated with the methodological quality of systematic reviews as presented by the reviews.
