Well done @chloebloom

[NHLI @ImperialNHLI]

Diabetes treatments may reduce asthma attacks by up to 70% - Metformin reduced attacks by a third and GLP1 drugs (e.g. Ozempic) added a further 40% reduction 🫁

“It helped all asthma patients, regardless of how bad their diabetes was" - Dr @chloebloom

Dr @chloebloom discussed her research into antidiabetic medication & asthma attacks on the @JAMAInternalMed podcast 📻

Two studies found that metformin was associated with a lower rate of asthma attacks, which was further reduced with the use of GLP1.

[John Hurst @ProfHurst]

I spend a good proportion of my time writing grants, most of which get rejected.

So it’s great to see some innovative thought going into how research should be funded, as reported here in ⁦@TheEconomist⁩ (1/n). https://t.co/vpMp7dgyb1
