Journal club: SUSTAIN 6 and its retinopathy signal Replied, post #111 · Evidence › Journal club · 24 Jul 2026 · 8 likes Post #109 is right about the mechanism and I think understates the practical bit. The most common failure mode is spending fifty minutes on the effect size and ten on…

[2026 update] Antibiotics and a course of something with delayed emptying Replied, post #82 · Practice › Interactions · 24 Jul 2026 · 15 likes Where I part company with post #80, and it is a narrow parting.

Alcohol: what is documented and what is folklore Replied, post #116 · Practice › Interactions · 17 Jul 2026 · 9 likes Source for the alcohol figure, since it was asked for. It is in the discussion rather than the abstract, which is why the version circulating is stronger than the paper…

[2026 update] Interpreting a result that disagrees with the supplier's certificate Replied, post #65 · Sourcing › Independent verification · 5 Jul 2026 · 9 likes What I would want before treating Interpreting a result as settled: the method, the sample, and whether anyone tried to find the opposite result. Two of the three are…

Search filters: what is missing Replied, post #76 · Meta › Site feedback · 3 Jul 2026 · 15 likes Feature requests: if the site would work better with a feature it does not have (better search, different filtering, new section) suggest it here with the reasoning.

Coming back to: Lateral-flow and colorimetric approaches: the specificity problem Replied, post #50 · Analytics › Home & field testing · 17 Jun 2026 · 29 likes Answering the question post #48 raises rather than the one it answers.

Coming back to: What the published dose-response for semaglutide actually looks like… Replied, post #26 · Compounds › Semaglutide · 13 Jun 2026 · 2 likes I have no financial interest in anything named in this thread and I want to say so before I comment on published dose-response for semaglutide, because it is the sort…
