Your Occam razor is a tragic self fulfilling phophethy. By people assuming scientists are not scientifically illiterate they silence those ignored potent results and dismiss them.
The fact is scientists are illiterate.
Russian are the world leaders in gerontology. A reason being they have a well funded longevity institute since the 90s.
Contrary to the rest of the world they are not retarded and therefore do human trials since billions of human lifes are at stake.
And most importantly they are public research. That is essential since the most promising class of drugs is generally non-patentable and therefore non-proditable (Peptides)
Khavinson is the greatest medecine researcher alive

On pubmed you are seeing Russian related papers because they cite each other. But actually many of those results have been independently reproduced by non-russian researchers, e.g thymalin is the covid cure since day 1. I knew this and all those lives and economic loss could have been saved but the world was not ready to listen the trivial truth.
The trivial retarded truth is that aged people have their thymus that involute, it self atrophy. By injecting them the thymic hormone thymalin, their thymus grow back and rejuvenate. This result in a 610% increase in lymphocite T production, basically fixing age related immunosupression which is the cause of covid mortality.
The world is too retarded and will remain retarded and suffering will persist.
However Russians are not the only ones that make revolutionary discoveries ignored by all, see e.g
