INFANTE AGUILAR, Elizabeth  y  BUJARDON MENDOZA, Alberto. The Cuban Public Registry of Clinical Trials from the perspective of Science, Technology and Society studies. Rev Hum Med [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.1, pp. 274-290.  Epub 25-Abr-2021. ISSN 1727-8120.

This article is the result of a study aimed at demonstrating the contribution of the Cuban Public Registry of Clinical Trials (RPCEC) in the transparency of research publications on human beings. A bibliographic review of different sources of scientific information was carried out in the SciELO electronic library and other websites in order to characterize the RPCEC from a perspective of the social studies of Science and Technology. Considerations on the issues were required at the time of conducting the research. It was found that RPCEC is a computer technology that favors data cleaning and generalization, which helps to eliminate publication bias. Furthermore, from the point of view of bioethics, it promotes scientific development and effective research in contemporary society.

Palabras clave : clinical trial registry; publication bias; research transparency; clinical trial; Science, technology and society.
