The Scottish Government is proposing funding cuts of 50% (around £7m) & recruitment freeze to thrombectomy, an evidence-based, highly cost-effect procedure that saves lives and reduces disabilities. Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland Stroke Association Dr Terry Quinn💙 Scot Gov Health

Really worth looking at openai.com/api/ This (or some variant) must be a potential for producing better discharge summaries, clinical letters, reports etc. from coded information. The dictaphone is dead!

A 🧵 on our work on US mortality change, just out in AEJ:App, with Sam Asher and @charlierafkin. We ask: how concentrated is the U.S. pre-Covid mortality crisis? Is everyone doing a little worse, or is a small subset doing catastrophically worse? The graph is a spoiler 1/N

The #UKPDS tested BP & glucose-lowering treatments for ~10 years in 5,102 people with newly diagnosed #diabetes. Based on hospital admissions, the long-term (44y) incidence of #dementia was estimated at 13%. BP & glucose-lowering regimes did not lower dementia risk #ESOC2023👇

Really impressive analysis from Will Whitely, looking at 44 year follow up of the UKPDS study linking routinely collected health data. The way forward for long term follow up of clinical trials… #ESOC23 Edinburgh Stroke Stroke Association

Better using national data is a great opportunity for trial recruitment and follow-up: great to work on follow up of UKPDS with OCDEM Amanda I Adler Philip M Clarke Jose Leal Ruth Coleman and Rury Holman funded by CSO(Health)Scotland and Oxford Population Health (OxPop) presented at #ESOC2023 today
