@oncology_bg Maybe it is time to have trials analyzed and reported independently!

@5_utr @bmj_latest Also if you look at the BA plot, the limits of agreement could be as wide as 39% lower or 65% higher! (converting log)

Can anyone think that TTE and RCT's are interchangeable with these limits??

@doddaganesha Journalists should have asked tougher questions to Agarkar during the press conference rather than letting him get away with his silly explanation.

Just finished reviewing an article: The authors conclude that “both groups showed similar results.”❌

Common mistake: A statistically non-significant difference between grops cannot be used to claim similar results. To demonstrate equivalence, you need an equivalence design ✅

@sanjaymanjrekar #AskSanjay Why are we not using hawk eye to analyze pitches? It can accurately show the degree of bounce & turn of every pitch & we can easily compare.

Just like we have stats for batters & blowers why not for pitches..

@mufaddal_vohra Should have been the captain long back... he lead the only test we won against AUS in the last series!

@anish_koka For anyone who knows Vinay, the last thing Vinay cares about is belonging on a panel... too independent of a thinker.

@isabellacueto Smoking is worse.. According to CDC data, cigarette smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S., causing over 480,000 deaths annually, while excessive alcohol use results in approximately 178,000 deaths per year.

Common mistake in SR/Meta analysis is looking at statistical significance!❌

Cochrane reviews recommend authors of SR/Meta analysis NOT to describe results as ‘statistically significant’/ ‘non-significant’ /unduly rely on thresholds for Pvalues ✅

Watch the 2 min video: 👍

@NBTiller @gary_sacks Also true for industry funded dugs based on Cochrane.

@Ndlombango Running economy & lactate threshold get better. Vo2 max usually declines with age.

[Exercise Biology @ExerciseBiology]

@GeoKabat This exactly why missing data is a problem in research.

@adamcifu Welcome back, Vinay!

And Vinay's first you tube video on his channel will be a fiery one for sure!! Watch out!🔥😀

10 yr follow-up study of the arthroscopic partial meniscectomy vs sham surgery for torn meniscus.

Guess what they found?? Same as the original 1 year-trial: No benefit!!👎

In fact, most outcomes favored the sham surgery!

Why we need RCT's!! 😊https://t.co/fm6P8oinhc

@theliverdoc Pulitzer prize coming! 👊

@IS_Netwrk29 What about IPL commentators getting paid for Gutkha ads???

Excellent article by @oncology_bg !! 🙏🙏

I would add one more simple critique: What's the Absolute risk reduction? RR always tend to exaggerate the risk reduction.

A MUST-READ!

This is probably one of my most important papers where I try to teach how to fish rather than offer fish.

How I Read a Clinical Trial Report?

BG’s primer for Busy Clinicians.

Thank you @JCOOP_ASCO @EthicsdoctorP for the kind invitation. I hope the readers will find this useful.
