No, they aren't. There are two kinds of sponsored studies: those where the analyst tells the client what he wants to hear and those whre the analyst makes a real study and the client will publish it only when it shows its products are good/the best. The later have an informative value provided you are on alert for artificially restricted field of study (the client knew the overall picture was not good so he had the analysts concentrating on that tiny part where he knows he will win, but a honest analyst would not accept a such job).
