Fairly obvious
I'm not sure this is as 'obvious' a result - so far - as hatshepsut suggests. Online health forums are becoming - in my experience anyway - invaluable sources of 'shared' information - which in many cases seems to have a much larger 'ambit' than our own GPs (for example). We might also make enquiries to all or any combination of these sources at various points in our lives.
I voted for the online clinical registry: "ClinicalTrials.gov" in the USA and canada.ca/en/health-canada/...
