It has to do with whether or not they reported all of the studies that they did. The two are not connected. What happens, too, when studies are carried out but the scientists cannot find someone to peer review them or publish them, even with massive critique? This happens a lot. Does that mean the study is unreported, or simply that nobody wants to waste time or space on them?
