RE:"And, of course, many of the doctors don't have a clue how to actually do research, so they throw out data, curve the figures and even make it up. With tests like this, are they really needed"

I've read a bunch of MD research papers and I'm inclined to agree with you. Some not so rigorous.
OTOH, without properly trained researchers, throwing all the money in the world at a problem is moot. A lot of research money is indeed wasted. Before it gets to the research teams a lot is wasted through administration...charities etc.
