所有美国医生接受药品公司的金钱和免费赠品
(NewsTarget) Nearly every doctor in the United States accepts gifts of some sort from pharmaceutical companies, but in many cases there is no benefit to patients, according to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine
(NewsTarget) 根据 New England Journal of Medicine
据《新英格兰医学杂志〉称，在美国，几乎每一个医生都接受药品公司的不同种类的礼物。不过，很多情况对病人无益。
Researchers surveyed 1,662 U.S. doctors and found that 94 percent of them reported "some type of relationship with the pharmaceutical industry." Eighty-three percent of respondents reported receiving gifts of food at work, and 78 percent reported receiving free drug samples. More than 33 percent of doctors reported receiving monetary payments from drug companies in exchange for attending medical meetings, giving lectures or signing up patients to participate in drug tests.
研究人员调查了1,662个美国医生，发现其中94% 提到“和药品工业具有不同类型的关系“83%说在工作中接受食品，78%接受免费药物样品。33%以上的医生说，以参加医学会议，演讲或签署病人参加药物试验接受现金报酬。
The researchers also found that the number of meetings between doctors and pharmaceutical industry representatives had actually increased since the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America lobby group adopted its new code of conduct in 2002. Yet there seemed to be no apparent benefit to patients from many of these meetings.
研究人员发现，自从2002年美国药物研究和游说议员组的制造商，采用新的管理编码以来，医生和药品工业代表之间的会议确实有所增加，而这些会议对病人并没有明显好处。
The survey also revealed that the drug industry appears to selectively make gifts to more influential doctors. While family practitioners see the most patients, heart doctors were twice as likely to get direct payments from drug companies. Doctors who were involved in training others were more likely to receive gifts, while those who treated the poor were less likely. Female doctors were less likely to receive gifts than males.
调查还显示，药品公司选择性地给影响较大的医生送礼，而开业医生们则照顾大多数病人。心脏病医生直接从药品公司获取双倍支付。担任培训的医生们大多接受礼物，而治疗穷人的医生们则很少接受礼物。女医生们比男医生们接受礼物。
"It appears pretty clear that industry forms tighter relationships with doctors who are really the thought leaders, the ones who are likely to affect the behavior of other doctors," said study co-author David Blumenthal of the Institute for Health Policy at Massachusetts General Hospital
