Once a study is published, we attempt to inform research study participants that their results were used. However, if the results are published with the study as part of the supporting data, then those results are accessible to other researchers for use in their studies as well. We cannot track published study data and its use in other publications; therefore, we are unable to track or notify you whenever additional studies are published using your results.
