Absolute and relative risk reduction in cholesterol on population basis. #relativerisk #absoluterisk #data #Science #statistics #greenscreen #CardioTwitter #MedTwitter
📰 Ever seen a headline like “risk doubles”?
That’s #RelativeRisk! It compares the likelihood of an event between groups.
☝️But #AbsoluteRisk is needed to interpret this correctly. Going from 1 in 1,000 to 2 in 1,000 = a 100% increase, but only 1 extra case per 1,000 people.
In our #article, we showed that #RR of #breastcancer represents only a partial view, with a negligible #realworldimpact i.e. in #absoluterisk terms, which did not justify either the #medicalresponse or the media coverage observed #20years ago.

#tuesdaymotivations Always use absolute numbers not relative. But hey when you read a nutrition headline which one do you think they will use? #healthcoach #absoluterisk #relativerisk
📰 When discussing risks, focusing on the #AbsoluteRisk rather than just the #RelativeRisk is key!
It prevents misinterpretations and fear-mongering and allows individuals to grasp the real magnitude of the risk, aiding in better decision-making.

Pharma marketing almost always boils down to sleight of hand between #AbsoluteRisk & #RelativeRisk.
Too often, statin advocates will communicate a drug’s relative risk reduction (impressive number), without quoting the absolute risk reduction (trivial number), a practise we consider unethical (see graph)
Great deep dive by @profnfenton on pharma's ROUTINE manipulation of #AbsoluteRisk, #RelativeRisk, #NNT, & test design to create "statistical illusions."

Aside:
I'm very lucky to have come to know the work of one of Dr. Malhotra's most courageous allies, Dr. David Diamond (@ldlskeptic), who does a fabulous job of explaining the difference betwee #RelativeRisk & #AbsoluteRisk.
If nothing else, pay attention to the distinction b/w #RelativeRisk & #AbsoluteRisk. Diamond's explanation of this pharma chicanery made me understand what Pfizer meant by "100% effective against hospitalization & death."
They mean the difference b/w 1 & 2, not "none" & "all."

please share so more can see how we've been deceived about LDL, amplification of statin benefits, minimizing statin harms & is LDL a concern on #LCHF

Go to 29:30 for an illuminating discussion of #RelativeRisk vs. #AbsoluteRisk.
I'm a humanities guy; I never paid attention to this statistical chicanery until Dr. Diamond explained how pharma shills can turn "lead data into gold."

Such an important explainer in the context of informed consent.
The fascists rely on ignorance, and, unfortunately, they’re getting it - in spades!

@OffGuardian0 Very few people understand the difference between #RelativeRisk vs #AbsoluteRisk... That "97% effectiveness" is actually LESS than 1% of actual effectiveness (Absolute Risk)

It's the same #RelativeRisk vs. #AbsoluteRisk shenanigans we see from pharma in every Lipitor ad.

@zoeharcombe @Seamus01952928 Playing games with #RelativeRisk vs. #AbsoluteRisk is especially effective in conjunction with hyperbolic models bearing no relation whatsoever to reality.
#LetTheFearBegin
When they use the average, ask for the median
When they use the median, ask for the average
When they use the percentages, ask for the change in quantity
If they give you all three, they might be true
But then again, you might need to see, range and variance to really believe
Pfizer’s vaccine has headlined being "more than 90% effective.”.
This is slightly misleading.
90% is the relative risk reduction. But the absolute risk reduction of the Pfizer’s vaccine is approx 0.4%.
The vaccine reduces your personal risk of infection by COVID by 0.4%.
@awaisaftab A rare but life-changing adverse-effect(a.e.)of a Pharma drug becomes frequent if the Pharma drug is as frequently prescribed as #fluoroquinolones.
#AbsoluteRisk is crucial for patients; less so at a population level.
One has to expect serious benefits to risk #FluoxieToxicity
