Revisiting: Journal club: SURMOUNT-OSA and a hard endpoint in a soft field Replied, post #113 · Evidence › Journal club · 17 Jul 2026 · 1 like The most common failure mode is spending fifty minutes on the effect size and ten on the population.

The anatomy of a question that gets answered within an hour Replied, post #103 · Start Here › How to Ask · 7 Jul 2026 · 6 likes Do not apologise in the first line. It costs you the space where the question should be, and nobody here thinks a question is an imposition.

Coming back to: Where the four-week escalation interval comes from, and what it is not Replied, post #7 · Practice › Dosing & titration · 30 Jun 2026 · 15 likes Taking post #4 at face value and following it one step further.
