This 1 hour Stanford lecture by Joel Peterson will teach you more about negotiation and getting what you want than most people learn in years.

Saying that high cholesterol was a made-up disease to sell pills is simply not true.
Atherosclerosis is real pathology.
I have personally seen lipid-rich plaques on IVUS and in autopsy specimens.
Patients with familial hypercholesterolemia develop premature cardiovascular disease.
Yes, statins are widely prescribed and pharmaceutical companies profit from them, but that should not lead us to ignore well-established physiology and evidence

Sudden cardiac arrest in athletes may be attributable to cardiac and noncardiac causes. With diagnosis and treatment, a return to play may be reasonable. Prevention, emergency planning, and shared decision making are key.

Fascinating paper just published in Science.

The authors analyze the career trajectories of top performers across multiple domains, including Nobel laureates, elite chess players, Olympic gold medalists, and more.

Their central finding challenges a common belief.

Intensive, single-discipline training at a young age does confer an early advantage, but this advantage fades over time.

By contrast, individuals exposed to multidisciplinary practice early in life tend to start more slowly. Yet, over the long run, they are more likely to reach world-class performance, eventually overtaking early specialists, who often plateau just below the very top.

An important reminder that breadth early on can be a powerful investment in long-term excellence.

Link to the paper in the first reply.

One-minute high-intensity exercise (3 x 20 sec), 3x a week for 12 weeks, improved fitness as much as did 3 x 45 minutes a week aerobic training.

Muscle mitochondria also increased similarly in both.
Intensity trumps volume.

You don't need a lot of time to get fit.

Looking to add statistical insights directly to your ggplot2 visualizations? The ggstatsplot package simplifies this by incorporating statistical tests, effect sizes, and other analyses right within your plots.

✔️ Enhanced Visuals: Automatically includes statistical information in your plots, providing clear insights without the need for extra steps.
✔️ Wide Range of Analyses: Supports various statistical tests, including t-tests, ANOVAs, correlations, and more, making it versatile for different types of data sets.
✔️ Customizable Output: Lets you control which statistical details are displayed and customize the appearance of plots, ensuring clarity and focus on key findings.
✔️ Seamless Integration: Designed to work directly with ggplot2, using the same syntax and functions you’re already familiar with.

The visualizations shown here are from the package website and demonstrate how ggstatsplot integrates statistical results seamlessly into ggplot2 graphics: https://t.co/kQ1KUseS6u
