Excellent meta-research: A trial within a large trial shows that consent form length impacts recruitment. Please consider too much text can exclude vulnerable groups / We need to rethink consent forms, too much information may harm. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/

#CompositeEndpoints in #RCTs: big problem. #BMJ survey of use in #cardiovascular trials: they make results look more important than they are through impression of benefits in death when only real effect in much less important outcomes (e.g. stent placement)

Poistuessasi koneesta kolme ihmistĂ€ sanoo sinulle ystĂ€vĂ€llisesti: ”Kiitos! HyvÀÀ pĂ€ivĂ€njatkoa!” Katsot heitĂ€ kaikkia silmiin ja pÀÀtĂ€t olla vastaamatta mitenkÀÀn, et edes nyökkÀÀ, kun kĂ€velet ulos. SelittĂ€kÀÀ joku tÀÀ mulle, nÀÀ on kumminkin kĂ€yneet ulkomailla asti 😆

Kysyin reilu pari vuotta sitten maa- ja metsĂ€talousministeri Sari Essayah’ilta turkistarhauksen tulevaisuudesta. Vastausta Kristillisdemokraatit | KD’n johtajalta ei ole kuulunut. MitĂ€ Petteri Orpo’n hallitus on tehnyt? Tukenut tietenkin #turkistarhaus’ta. #FurFreeFuture

World experts discuss crucial topic: "The Impact Of Definitions Of Disease On Overdiagnosis" Specialists always create very loose definitions of their diseases. They worry too much re missing patients/too little re mislabeling. We should fear disease less/fear treatment more.
