Renal hyperfiltration (RHF) may be an underestimated risk factor for mortality, according to new research published in @urologynephrol1. The results emphasize the need to re-evaluate current RHF definitions and screening strategies. @Mounirsetti @uef_phcn https://t.co/ZL2b4ILLuA

(4/4) The link between movement restriction and disease spread might have strong regional specificities. Authorities must understand the dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 spread at a local level in order to fine-tune interventions to control it.

(1/4) At the @UniEastFinland, we analyzed how mobile phone mobility data correlated with SARS-CoV-2 spread in 125 countries. We found that:
1. Too strict lockdowns might be counter-productive
2. In some countries, mobility restrictions could correlate with worse disease spread

[Mounir Ould Setti @Mounirsetti]

(3/4) Group 1: countries where mobility restrictions negatively correlated with Rt (Austria as an example - left panel)
Group 2: countries with an "inverted" mobility vs. Rt correlation (Bolivia as an example - right panel)
Group 3: other countries

@Livburkinshaw4 @shawacademy They did the same thing to me. I am trying to report that to my bank account.

A major scientific journal bans scientists affiliated with Huawei from reviewing papers ... because Trump doesn't like them ... Politics continue to bias science.

President Abdelaziz Bouteflika of Algeria, ailing for years, has his framed image — known as “the frame” — replace his physical presence at government rallies. Frustration with him appears to have boiled over, as mass protests have taken to city streets. https://t.co/TnmVFTCc8m

Smoking one cigarette a day might be just as bad as heavy smoking according to a new solid study (Hackshaw et al. 2018).
