Ritskes-Hoitinga cont'd... Sys reviews demonstrate low quality of pubs of #animalstudies & low transability to humans. NAMs & #humanrelevant#science are the way forward.
A few pts of interest from Prof Ritskes-Hoitinga's presentation:
- Pub quality is limited, 50-80% of #animalstudy pubs omit essential details
- Many animal models don't translate to humans
- Preclinical SRs not demanded 1) before moving to clinical trials 2) by funding bodies
