Report a correction

Wrong information on a health site does real harm. Corrections take priority over everything else here.

How to report one

Email hello@hairpipeline.com. Most useful: a link to the record, what looks wrong, and — if you have it — the source that shows it. A link to a regulatory document or a paper settles it in minutes rather than days.

What counts as an error

A wrong phase, a wrong authorisation date, a misattributed sponsor, a trial filed against the wrong compound, a dead link, a translation that shifts the meaning — all of it. Many programmes here are barely documented outside their home country, and the likeliest error is simply a record that has fallen behind the news.

What happens next

We check against the primary source, not against the coverage of it. If the correction holds, the record and its source are updated; if it does not, you get a reply explaining why. Where a correction changes how well-evidenced a record is, its confidence level moves too.

What we will not change on request

No payment is accepted to add, remove or reword a record. Discontinued programmes stay in the register, marked as such — the history of failures is as informative as the successes, and deleting it would turn this into a marketing document. A sponsor disputing a record is treated like any other source: with the document, or not at all.
