Our new paper "GLP-1-directed NMDA receptor antagonism for obesity treatment" is out today in @Nature

https://t.co/XmAbLIZ2FX

We describe the engineering and preclinical development of a new drug candidate that targets NMDA receptors in GLP-1 receptor neurons.

@cremieuxrecueil After 15y in ‘exercise medicine’ research, I get an instant visceral reaction every time a post says

“BREAKING/LOOK: EXERCISE IS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN DRUGS/OTHER TREATMENTS FOR CONDITION X/Y/Z”,

because

A) it is never actually a comparison, and

B) well…this (sigh)

What a complete boondoggle this stuff is. Truly sad!

"The Right wants strict rules on everything.
From what teachers can teach,
to who can read to children...

But when it comes to just f*cking filling out paperwork to get a gun, TOO FAR!

But inconvenience is not the same thing as infringement."

Robert De Niro’s full statement on Trump. Please read and let me know your thoughts:

I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men.  I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly.

I see an evil one.

Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong.  Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped.

Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them.

We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego.  We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership.  We tried to warn the world in 2016.

The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination.  Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags.
The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior.  That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse.

Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously.
So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America:
This is our last chance.

Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator.

And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided.

So what do we do about it?  I know I’m preaching to the choir here.  What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls.   We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House.  They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice.  Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them.

Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect.  Let’s not talk about “democracy.”  “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it.  Let’s talk about right and wrong.  Let’s talk about humanity.  Let’s talk about kindness.  Security for our world.  Safety for our families.  Decency.  Let’s welcome them back.  We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.”

Harms of exercise training in patients with #cancer undergoing systemic treatment

There is currently insufficient data on harms to make evidence-based risk-benefits assessments of the application of structured exercise in this population

It's been over three years since I rescued my pet pangolin from the wet market in Wuhan, and brought him back to the UK via a ski trip in Italy. Look how little Covi has grown! So proud.

Observational - to be confirmed – we hypothesize that elevated pre-chemotherapy inflammation causes ´immune cell exhaustion´; given elevated/chronic exposure to TNFa linked to Tcell dysfunction, and IL-8 may impair NKcell function.

Great Nordic collab with the PhysCan group! 2/2

[JFC @jfc_science]

Final PhD paper from the ever so industrious Tim Schauer is out. Pre-treatment systemic inflammation by IL-8 and TNFa was independently associated with risk of chemotherapy dose-reduction in patients with breast cancer. 1/2

[JFC @jfc_science]

@BoSchwartz MEGET enig - også i andre settings. Fx de prediktionsmodeller, der returnerer "realtime winning percentages" i (betting-tunge) sportsgrene kunne også vel også, ala dette, deklarere at fx 65%-35% (vel?) reelt er sum-probability af MANGE(alle) mere eller mindre sandsynlige udfald?

[Bo Schwartz Madsen @BoSchwartz]

Grafen er opfundne tal.
Jeg tror at det ville blive et bedre produkt hvis DR/TV2 viste usikkerheden på deres prognoser i løbet af aftenen.
Ellers får man det indtryk at den er lige så sikker i starten som til sidst. Og de interviewer folk på den baggrund. Men det er ikke sådan.
