Second, the explosion of research efforts and publications in those fields has frequently increased the controversy of the results reported, what in some instances confound the scientific community. Particularly vulnerable in this regard are clinicians who have to decide which diagnostic tools and treatment options to trust and apply to their patients. If there might be a statistical/probabilistic justification to this increased discrepancy of results, there is also a growing evidence that data generated sometimes can be of doubtful confidence either regarding the way it were obtained, analyzed or whether they exist at all!!.
