I’m fairness, the majority of publications on pubmed are never replicated. Quality checks aren’t really a thing in the medical community, in my experience.
That is why it is hard to be shure that this paper is valid. And it is not only medical sciences. Replication crisis in my expirience is spreading even into chemistry and physics. And it is driven by modern grants system where you have a chance to get a grant only if you promise to get results welcomed by those who give you a grant. It is not science financing, it is scientists bribing.
