Just out in @JAMAInternalMed, we highlight a mechanism to detect selection bias/confounding in observational studies by looking at Kaplan Meier curves.

If the curves separate implausibly early, the findings are too good to be true!

NEW 🚨research🚨 where we show that patients diagnosed with melanoma in situ (MIS) live LONGER overall than age/sex/race matched individuals (112% relative survival) without MIS. https://t.co/EPmuKNg3j1 this suggests MIS may mostly be a marker of health seeking behavior.

While keratoacanthoma (KA) has historically been considered a variant of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), current evidence suggests that they are distinct lesions.

What are the differences between KA and cSCC? Find out more in this review: https://t.co/HF0rODWGdY

For anyone doubting that #healthcare should be a basic human right, here is a bill for 2 #chemotherapy treatments. I never smoked, I exercised, I ate healthy before stage IV #cancer at age 44. Without insurance, what would I do here? What could I do? I had 55 chemos😞
