Journal club: STEP 1 and the treatment-policy estimand — does this still hold? Replied, post #75 · Evidence › Journal club · 25 Jul 2026 · 27 likes STEP 1 is one of those subjects where the general answer and the answer for a specific case diverge, and the thread will go in circles until someone says which one is…
Impurity thresholds: where the common numbers come from Replied, post #12 · Analytics › Impurities & related substances · 22 Jul 2026 · 0 likes Where an impurity is identified rather than merely counted, the certificate is telling you the manufacturer has characterised its own process. That is a meaningful…
Pinch or no pinch, and how needle length changes the answer — what changed since Replied, post #60 · Practice › Administration · 21 Jul 2026 · 15 likes Appreciated. The plain phrasing does more work here than a longer post would.
Revisiting: Journal club: SURMOUNT-OSA and a hard endpoint in a soft field Replied, post #94 · Evidence › Journal club · 10 Jul 2026 · 3 likes Answering the question post #90 raises rather than the one it answers. Reporting rather than recommending, on SURMOUNT-OSA. What happened is above. Whether it should…
Revisiting: What pooling buys you and what it destroys Replied, post #85 · Evidence › Meta-analyses · 9 Jul 2026 · 1 like Double extraction with disagreement resolution is standard and is worth checking for, because single extraction errors are common and non-random.
Follow-up: Sleep quality changes during weight loss Replied, post #57 · Wellbeing › Sleep · 29 Jun 2026 · 0 likes Post #55 describes the usual case. This is about the unusual one. Reporting improvement is as useful as reporting a problem, and this subcategory hears far more of the…
[2026 update] Interpreting a result that disagrees with the supplier's certificate Replied, post #49 · Sourcing › Independent verification · 28 Jun 2026 · 7 likes This follows post #46 rather than contradicting it. I would keep Interpreting a result and the decision it usually gets used for separate in this thread. They are…
Spreadsheets: an appreciation — what changed since Replied, post #78 · Lounge › Off topic · 22 Jun 2026 · 7 likes Clear enough that I do not think I have a follow-up, which is unusual.
Second pass at: Programming during a large energy deficit Replied, post #31 · Nutrition & Training › Resistance training · 17 Jun 2026 · 17 likes Genuine question rather than a rhetorical one: has anyone here actually observed Programming during a large energy, as opposed to read about it? The thread is long and…
An appeal that succeeded, with the letter structure — the long version Replied, post #78 · Access › Insurance & coverage · 10 Jun 2026 · 32 likes Same experience here, different supplier, so it is at least not unique to one of them.
Risk-of-bias tools and the judgement they conceal — does this still hold? Replied, post #13 · Evidence › Meta-analyses · 7 Jun 2026 · 1 like On Risk-of-bias tools I would separate what is worth knowing from what is worth acting on. The first list is long and the second is short, and conflating them is how…
Official shortage notices and what they authorise Replied, post #82 · Access › Shortages · 2 Jun 2026 · 0 likes The arithmetic on official shortage notices is the easy part and it is where the errors are, which is an uncomfortable combination. Show your working and someone will…
