Tells us nothing we did not know but basically where a reviewer knows the writer of a studyvthen bias comes in. It is why @richard that any study not double bonded is not really worth it, including bed that support us.
Single blinded science reviews - bias

It’s worth blinding peer review if for no other reason than to prevent the “Matilda effect” (where a male name appearing first increases it’s chance of passing review). I’m totally a fan of blinding the scientists involved so there isn’t an inherent appeal top authority and the science stands for itself.
