Disclosure of potential conflicts of interest (COI) is used by biomedical journals to guarantee credibility and transparency of the scientific process. Conflict of interest disclosure, however, is not systematically nor consistently dealt with by journals. Recent joint editorial efforts paved the way towards the implementation of uniform vehicles for COI disclosure. This paper provides a comprehensive editorial perspective on classical COI-related issues. New insights into the current COI policies and practices among European Society of Cardiology National Cardiovascular Journals, as derived from a cross-sectional survey using a standardised questionnaire, are discussed.
生物医学期刊利用披露潜在利益冲突（COI）来保证科学过程的可信度和透明度。然而，期刊对利益冲突披露的处理既不系统也不一致。最近编辑们的共同努力为实施统一的利益冲突披露方式铺平了道路。本文从编辑的全面视角探讨了与利益冲突相关的经典问题。讨论了通过使用标准化问卷进行的横断面调查得出的对欧洲心脏病学会国家心血管期刊当前利益冲突政策和实践的新见解。
