To entice you on, here's the closing paragraph:

"FDA decisions can be made more transparent to all interested parties. The agency can improve cooperation with the industry, patient groups, physicians, hospitals, academia, and other government agencies. The goal should not be conducting more time-consuming discussion, but finding more effective ways to bring medical advances to patients as quickly as possible."
