@DrConnyS It's a loophole in PHI legislation that needs to be closed. The information that is in the records is yours by right, but they can charge you for the production. It made a bit of sense when everything was photocopied, but they can release that data at the click of a button now

@AnnaNoelStorr @idshemilt Great paper on ML techniques in Cochrane Reviews, but I'm disappointed in the lack of ML details in the paper - can we expect a more tech-oriented spinoff paper in the near future?

It's not the optimal presentation of info, but it's still really cool looking!

A propos of nothing in particular, I made a weird graph of COVID case numbers in the UK.

Our work at HDNS to migrate to a Hadoop based system took a lot of time and effort, so it's nice to see it recognized in print! https://t.co/ILNmWwC3oP

@AllenFinley @rosebeefe YYYY-MM-DD is the superior format - no confusion and proper sorting across multiple years. I'd prefer DD/MM/YYYY over MM/DD/YYYY, but both are worse than year-first

[MI Prof @MedInfProf]

A great change for health science in Canada, congratulations to CMAJ for making their important work more accessible

We are very proud to publish this #IPDMA research, which would not have been possible without the important contributions of many trialists and researchers over many years (https://t.co/UiGtaMOzYb)! #metanalysis #pain #backpain

[MI Prof @MedInfProf]

Individual participant data meta-analytic methods allowed us to combine and analyze data from 27 #RCT s to identify potential treatment effect modifiers of #exercise therapy for persistent #lowbackpain. Read about the project in @BJSM_BMJ (https://t.co/EcUzqRSyWo) #IPDMA
