@cartographer_s There's another Vesuvius piece by Pether in the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City. It's gorgeous in-person. The red colors are so bright, it looks illuminated. It's quite beautiful. Striking, really. Pictures don't do it justice!

@cremieuxrecueil the "AI-enabled augmented curation" method they describe using BERT on unstructured clinical notes is super cool, too. Going to look more into this.

@cremieuxrecueil It's cool that you're leveraging followers to collect data. Even if not the most robust collection methodology, super nice to have these real world data insights for pennies compared to RCTs/cohorts.

@NTFabiano Interesting synthesis (& great figure). Thanks for sharing.

This angle could also support other low-risk OTC nighttime supplements like magnesium and/or L-theanine. Seems like there's ADHD-related evidence for both:

@cremieuxrecueil Promising! Though the baseline they report is ~5.5 hours of EHR time per 8 patient hours. So a ~4% reduction. I suppose 4% across thousands of doctors is a lot of $ in efficiency gained.

Though they also report efficacy scales with more consistent use of the AI; makes sense.

Plant seed oils are abundant in modern diets, they have gained a notorious reputation for driving age related diseases.

But is this reputation fair? Or is there more to the story?

Let's take a careful look at the science. 🧵

@TamarHaspel @deirdre_tobias Can you share any studies RE: how people on Ozempic-class medications changed their dietary pattern? I'd be interested in reading!

I'm curious if it would be an Ozempic-driven change, or diet change that was suggested by a physician/dietitian at medication prescription start.

🥩 Our latest in @NatureFoodJnl:

Britains are reducing meat consumption mainly through smaller portion sizes.

Low-meat meals pose fewer barriers than meat-free options, especially for high consumers.

BREAKING
#Semaglutide within 3 months of diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes eliminated insulin after meals in all 10 patients and daily insulin in 7.

HbA1C dropped from 11.7% to 5.9%.

Provocative & requires further larger long term prospective validation.

@katherinembaker @LindsayJaacks Thank you so much! 🥰🌈

[Alexander Vonderschmidt ⟠ @axvonder]

I'm very honored to receive this doctoral fellowship! I'm quite excited for the research and hope I can represent GAAFS & Edinburgh well.

Big thanks to @LindsayJaacks and Peter Alexander for their endless support; the best supervisors one could have!

Idée de visite : le musée Carnavalet, à Paris

Situé dans le 3e arrondissement, ses collections nous font découvrir l'histoire de Paris, de la Préhistoire à nos jours.
