a for-profit corporation or self-directed pension plan, 2) research
grants, 3) employment (full or part time), 4) ownership or

the presenter or his/her immediate family, including support that
may be provided to attend the educational meeting, 6)
nonremunerative positions of influence such as officer, board
member, trustee, or public spokesperson. The disclosure will be
shown as an indication (by an *) for those presenters who have
stated that a relationship(s) exists relevant to the topic(s) being
discussed.
