| − | [[Merck]], the drug manufacturer responsible for [[Vioxx]], [[Gardasil]] and other blockbusters, has been publishing a fake, peer-reviewed journal with favorable-looking data to promote its products. Medical publisher [[Elsevier]], which also publishes The [[Lancet]], admitted in May 2009 that it produced The [[Australasian Journal of Bone and Joint Medicine]] without disclosing sponsorship from [[Merck]]. The publisher has also revealed that six publications were paid for by drug companies between 2000 and 2005, making them "elaborate marketing tools".<ref>Pharmacy Europe.
