Abstrakt: Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics ( GG PBT) has been a cornerstone in the education of pharmacists, physicians, and pharmacologists for decades. The objectives of this study were to describe and evaluate the 13 th edition of GG PBT on bases including: (1) author characteristics; (2) recency of citations; (3) conflict of interest (CoI) disclosure; (4) expert evaluation of chapters. Contributors' (N = 115) sex, professional degrees, and presence of undisclosed potential CoI-as reported by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid's Open Payments (2013-2017)-were examined. The year of publication of citations was extracted relative to Katzung's Basic and Clinical Pharmacology ( Kat BCP), and DiPiro's Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach ( DiP PAPA). Content experts provided thorough chapter reviews. The percent of GG PBT contributors that were female (20.9%) was equivalent to those in Kat BCP (17.0%). Citations in GG PBT (11.5 ± 0.2 years) were significantly older than those in Kat BCP (10.4 ± 0.2) and DiP PAPA (9.1 ± 0.1, p < 0.0001). Contributors to GG PBT received USD 3 million in undisclosed remuneration (Maximum author = USD 743,718). In contrast, DiP PAPA made CoI information available. Reviewers noted several strengths but also some areas for improvement. GG PBT will continue to be an important component of the biomedical curriculum. Areas of improvement include a more diverse authorship, improved conflict of interest transparency, and a greater inclusion of more recent citations.
