Very large systematic review and network meta-analysis just published in @bmj_latest finds "Exercise is an effective treatment for depression, with walking or jogging, yoga, and strength training more effective than other exercises, particularly when intense. Yoga and strength training were well tolerated compared with other treatments."

At least one full-time statistician on four full-time researchers is a formula for success. Retweet if you feel your team would benefit from more statistical support! @BJSM_BMJ https://t.co/bqizSEbGd6

Really enjoyed this piece from @KrisBeattie @EatSleepTrain_ @PhilipGrahamSm2

Interesting to see differences in CMJ Depth and Ecc. Utilization between groups. Definitely challenged some of my expectations and assumptions on phase characteristics.
