Disappointed with clinical trials statistics

[Farooqji]

The following link provides the list of ongoing total 491 clinical trials. The disappointing thing about it is that more than 80% of the trials are L-dopa based. The scientific and medical community is least interested in exploring other means.

Wouldn’t it be more accurate to write the following link provides the list of ongoing trials in the United States.?

[Farooqji in reply to Hikoi]

you are right. research is very much limited outside USA,but the list also provides locations outside US

[Hikoi in reply to Farooqji]

I dont know how accurate you are about research being limited outside the US. It could be so or it could be ‘fake news’
