Nice to see the community commenting my paped with my advisors. I must agree with this claim but by using a different argument. Thanks for all the comments.

Our new study shows that data availability statements are not very useful; 1670 (93%) authors who indicated that data are available on request either did not respond or declined to share their data with us. Journal of Clinical Epidemiology: https://t.co/4IT2Dgphl4

We have a very special symposium with friends from around the world to announce the launch of a call for new members by BRISA (the @BrRepInitiative's systematic review and meta-analysis collaboration)! Join on Wednesday, 9 am Brazil/12 pm GMT at https://t.co/b2ndjS0YuR!

How reproducible is highly-cited medical research? We try to answer this question in a new @medrxivpreprint with @gabrielgcnut, updating John Ioannidis' classic 2005 paper, and the answers give reason for optimism. Find out more at https://t.co/HobH08jNkU

RECOVERY Update
- colchicine added today
- still studying aspirin, convalescent plasma, REGN-CoV2, and tocilizumab
- just passed 19,000 patients enrolled.

Thank you everyone who has made this possible. Incredible effort that will soon give us more robust results.

@shikta_das @dsquintana @NaudetFlorian Oh my bad. Please be my guest. My institutional email (I rather prefer then) is [email protected].

We’re seeking for a researcher with #RStats skills to collaborate with us mainly for graphs and presentation tasks. Anyone? If you know someone, could you please refer to us? 😊#ggplot #ggplot2

[The BRIGHTER Meta-Research Group @GroupBrighter]

@shikta_das @dsquintana @NaudetFlorian Oh, alright. If you can indicate someone

[The BRIGHTER Meta-Research Group @GroupBrighter]

@shikta_das @dsquintana @NaudetFlorian Hi @shikta_das. Could you please call me inbox? Many many thanks so far!

@igoreckert1 @dsquintana TSA seems to be useless from the very beginning by the philosophical point of view (@helal_lucas).

@jairbolsonaro, the Brazilian population will have access to the numbers. #JHUCOVID19 Dashboard: 614,941 deaths.

The revised version of our crowdsourced study on quality of reporting in preprints and peer-reviewed articles is online at @biorxivpreprint! The bottom line? Peer review seems to have a positive effect, but differences are quite small. Check it out at https://t.co/fxlNgBCdL7

[Michael Schlussel @m_schlussel]

Amazing opportunity for #ECR or anyone from #LMIC wanting to work with #clinicaltrials! Applications ending soon!!

Hey, @RedeSciELO @BrRepInitiative @GroupBrighter @pahowho @bahianajournals @lgcuervoamore it would be amazing if you could spread the word!

Many thanks!!

New Chinese policy directions for evaluating publications are still short of fulfilling @DORAssessment recommendations, but seem like a huge step ahead from their current system. This should indeed make a difference on the publication landscape.

[Anne Scheel @annemscheel]

Does peer review improve quality of reporting?@clari_carneiro et al. find slightly better reporting in peer-reviewed biomedical papers than preprints, *and* improvements from preprint to publication for the same papers
