was widespread criticism of the government's system for dealing with allegations of misconduct, and calls for review of the oversight procedures dealing with the integrity of biomedical research. The case of alleged scientific misconduct and her exoneration was reported in Scientific American. A New York Times editorial at the time described the final result of the ten-year investigation as "embarrassment for the Federal Government and belated vindication for the accused scientist". The high profile of the case resulted in a great deal of published commentary on the matter. The New York Times published an account of the medical establishment's treatment of O’Toole on March 22, 1991. The mathematician Serge Lang discussed the case in an article published in the journal Ethics and Behavior in January 1993. Several books, including The Baltimore Case (1998) by Daniel Kevles of Yale University and The Great Betrayal: Fraud in Science by science historian Horace Freeland Judson, also covered the Baltimore affair.
