Funding bias

Regarding funding bias, I now appreciate that the companies come up with health care research even when it does not have a scientific basis. Besides, the corporation may tilt the results of the research to favor its new device or medication. According to an article, I read about the biased funding, a pharmaceutical company would favor and sponsor a health care research that best meets its corporate goals. I admit the fact that the corporations want to increase the sales of newly discovered devices and drugs that motivates the inclination. Some research has indicated that the outcome of clinical experiments correlates with the source of funding.
