RT Journal A1 Lu-Yao G, Albertsen P, Shih W, Yao S T1 FAilure to report financial disclosure information JF JAMA JO JAMA YR 2009 FD January 7 VO 301 IS 1 SP 35 OP 36 DO 10.1001/jama.2008.905 UL http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.2008.905 AB To the Editor: We would like to apologize to the readers and editors of JAMA for a difference in understanding of the JAMA policy for reporting financial disclosures and resultant failure to report our disclosure information in our article.1 The basis of our omission of financial information was that we did not foresee a reasonable likelihood of financial gain or bias as a consequence of our activities or employment in other areas of the fields of prostate cancer or cancer research that were separate from our study in early stage prostate cancer and, therefore, did not believe that there were additional relevant disclosures.
