Did you miss out on #ISEEYoung2024 8th workshop on reproducible research in epidemiology with #rstats.

The material is now freely available on GitHub: https://t.co/5EJM7vYPNY

Our new study using NHS data shows increased residential greenspace could have protected against COVID-19 hospitalization and mortality, with deprived groups benefiting the most.

Will @UKLabour commit to protecting our greenspaces?

Great conference, great destination, and great talent coming-up through the @ISEE_global / @IseeSnrn / @isee_job (International Society for Environmental Epidemiology) ranks!

Big Thanks to Benedicte Jacquemin and her team for a fantastic conference ⁦@iseeyoungrennes⁩, where we heard excellent science and meet old and new colleagues, from East and West and beyond Europe.

Thanks a lot to the organisers for the opportunity to present the 8th workshop of ISEE young conference on reproducible research in epidemiology with R.
I hope that the 30 participants workshop have enjoyed as much as I did the 2h30 minutes spend together.

@agingdoc1 @zoranajova Thanks for the shoutout! We also found increased risks of dementia at very low levels of air pollution.

[Stéphane Tuffier @ste_tuf]

These findings align with other studies, emphasizing the need for actions to promote healthy aging such as: cleaning up our air, promoting physical activity, and improving city environments.

[Stéphane Tuffier @ste_tuf]

🚨 New paper 🚨

Long-term exposure to air pollution strongly correlates with dementia incidence,
regardless of road traffic noise.

Does our environment, such as air & noise #pollution, increase risk for #dementia?

New study from @ste_tuf @zoranajova shows that long-term exposure to air pollution is strongly associated with incidence of dementia, independent of road traffic noise!

[Stéphane Tuffier @ste_tuf]

The main findings 🧐

- Long-term exposure to air pollution increases dementia risk, even at Denmark's relatively low pollution levels
- This association was independent of road traffic noise
- Physical activity may counteract air pollution's adverse effects.

There is a concerning connection between air pollution and dementia risk.

Outdoor air pollution infiltrates our homes and workplaces, affecting our cognitive health over time.

#Copenhagen air not so clean this week and weekend. Colder temps and fog keep air pollution close to the ground, and southerly winds brought in pollution from Middle & Western Europe. PM2.5 levels reaching 40-50 µg/m³, 5x WHO guidelines value #AirPolution

@tcolehunter @UNCityCPH @UCPH_Research @WHO_Europe @ISGLOBALorg @zoranajova Thanks for organizing Tom, it was a nice meeting.

[Tom Cole-Hunter @tcolehunter]

Thanks to @UNCityCPH for hosting our group from @UCPH_Research with a site visit yesterday!

We learnt a lot about the @WHO_Europe #HealthyCities network health profiles, which we'll draw upon in a health impact assessment as part of the #UBDPolicy project led by @ISGLOBALorg.

🔐 EU users can now control their data on Google services, thanks to the EU's DMA.

This marks a significant shift in digital privacy and user autonomy. How will this shift impact tech and user experience?

Share your thoughts!

It is 2024 and it is still common practice in the medical literature to put a bunch of covariates in a regression model for some bad health outcome and declare the significant associations as "risk factors" that people should worry about. Pseudo science
