The above examples are just the tip of the iceberg. Here is a systematic review of the way the three largest, authoritative reviews have misquoted the literature:
More recent examples of false citations are given in the following papers:

Rosenman R, Werkö L, Nielsen JV, Wilske J, Worm N. Studies
of dietary fat and heart disease. Science 2002; 295:1464-1465.
Some of my scientific papers about this and similar issues:
questionable role of saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids in
cardiovascular disease. J Clin Epidemiol 1998;51:443-460.
