@RestIsPolitics @RoryStewartUK @campbellclaret Bridget Phillipson has said that providers will struggle to deliver the Tory's free childcare plan. But Labour saying they're not committing to delivering the plan terrifies me as a new parent. They dropped the £28bn green pledge.. surely this is another vote loser.

Skeletal muscle-focused guideline development: hierarchical model incorporating muscle form, function, and clinical outcomes https://t.co/bLhGEIEAaR
Form and functional measures are often treated as equivalent alternatives when framed in the context of “outcomes” for which they are intended to predict. Here we adapt a classic biological concept stating that “function follows form” to show that pathophysiological links are present between these two different muscle qualities and clinical outcomes.

We argue that a hierarchy exists such that outcomes closely follow functions that, in turn, follow form…the OFF rule. The OFF rule explains why functional measures often show stronger associations with outcomes than those quantifying form, helps to frame debates on how to structure the gateway nodes used to identify patients for further evaluation and treatment, and sets out a pathophysiological structure for developing future outcome prediction models.

Great work from @DrCarlaPrado et al

In less than 24 hours, a thread offering tips to avoid / fight cancer 'naturally' (mainly through diet⛳️) has gotten over 100k likes.

Sadly, the advice given is both wrong and dangerous, and *very* likely to cause harm.

A quick thread on why this is so misguided... 🧵
