Reporting bias means that only a selection of results are included in any analysis, which typically covers only a fraction of relevant evidence. This can lead to inappropriate decisions (for example, prescribing ineffective or harmful drugs), resource waste and misguided future research.


Being bias does not always mean we are always wrong but sometimes it can lead to very hazardous result for example prescribing a different or a fatal drug to a patient
