StuffThatWorks

StuffThatWorks helps people learn which treatments work best for their condition using AI-powered crowdsourcing.
Let’s figure out what works, together.

"StuffThatWorks, a startup that has built a platform for people to look up various health conditions, and then contribute their own experiences, has raised $9 million in a seed round from @BessemerVP, @83NorthVC and Ofek Ventures." https://t.co/pc6jaLuW9F @TechCrunch

“I just wish that I had learned what I know now sooner in my life, because it would have made such a huge difference and I probably wouldn't have struggled for most of my adulthood,”@bethankate1984 shares her #PCOS story

New episode of #thepatientisin podcast on finding support when chronically ill: “People that are compassionate & willing to try and understand your story and your pain, are the people that you want to keep around.” @HeatherFoisy https://t.co/p3bdRnX4QG #Sjogrens #chronicillness

In just a few decades the situation for people with #HIV changed so drastically its almost unbelievable. This #HIVtestingday we encourage you to get tested frequently, so you could enjoy the life you deserve. If you are dealing with HIV, join our community https://t.co/zaa6ULDSP6

>If you’ve ever asked yourself “Is this an aura” – Look at this list by @stuffthatworks1 members and let crowdsourced wisdom help you in your health journey. This #MigraineAwarenessMonth, don’t be alone with your condition. Join us today at https://t.co/aogRin4AdR ❤️

Aura – that elusive symptom foretelling a migraine. But what does it really look like? Apparently, the same term means a variety of effects in the visual field>

[StuffThatWorks @StuffThatWorks1]

Changing habits is one of the toughest challenges people with chronic conditions face - but it's often extremely rewarding. For UK's #DiabetesWeek, we're drawing inspiration from our #diabetes type 1 community members who made some amazing changes to improve their lives ❤️

Can your infant's nutrition have an affect on their chance to develop #asthma? For asthma awareness month, we checked our asthma community's data to see if there's a connection, and the distribution seems to be normal! good news for all moms+infants ❤️ #asthmaawarenessmonth

[StuffThatWorks @StuffThatWorks1]

Sometimes, it *is* lupus, but still complicated to get a diagnosis. On #LupusAwarenessDay we wish to send support to all those dealing with this journey. We know it can be a lot, we see you, you are not alone. Join our #lupus community today at https://t.co/zF7gGrx2WZ

Our amazing CEO, Yael Elish, sat for an open conversation with Israeli financial outlet @TheMarker about building @StuffThatWorks1 and the vision behind it

הכירו את מפת המחלות של יעל אליש, ��יזמת שמביאה את השיטות של ווייז לעולם הרפואה. הכל התחיל מהתקופה בה הפכה את ה��ינטרנט יום ולילה בניסיון לעזור לבתה, שהתמודדה עם מחלה כרונית שלא הגיבה לטיפולים, ורק החמירה

>This research uses @StuffThatWorks1 patient reports and algorithms to calculate and compare treatment effectiveness for HS. It’s a fantastic demo of the promise our data holds. Congrats to Jen and everyone involved, this is only the beginning!

[StuffThatWorks @StuffThatWorks1]

Working with real world evidence, we see the promise of our data everyday – but also face skepticism. That’s why we were thrilled by the publication of this research by our very own Dr. Jen Barak-Levitt and Dr. Shani Sherman of Beilinson Hospital, in a prestigious med journal>

#SymptomTip Get bad headaches, body pain, sore glands? Ice can definitely help reduce inflammation but ice chunks can hurt! Try this #spoonie trick instead:

Instead of punching down at the expense of someone's medical condition (or actually punching someone), let's normalize the only answer for bullying: Information. Education. Conversation. That's why we created our platform, so that everyone finds support in the quest for answers>

[StuffThatWorks @StuffThatWorks1]

Our #Alopecia community is home to thousands and keeps growing daily. Lets have honest, respectful conversations about chronic conditions, that's the best way out there to beat aggression of any kind>

[StuffThatWorks @StuffThatWorks1]

>This information could be extremely insightful in the management of your condition. Let's normalize talking about lesions, help us spread the word and join us at https://t.co/aogRin4AdR #EndometriosisAwarenessMonth

[StuffThatWorks @StuffThatWorks1]

Let's get real about #Endometriosis lesions. They can have a huge effect on your life and be the cause of your symptoms, yet might take years to diagnose and treat. We asked our Endometriosis community of 45K members over at @stuffthatworks1 where they've had lesions>

[StuffThatWorks @StuffThatWorks1]

Our @stuffthatworks1 #Endo community already has over 45K members, the graphic above shows just some of the 457 co-morbidities we’ve identified together. Join us, let's beat loneliness together and build a strong real world knowledge-base for all ❤️

[StuffThatWorks @StuffThatWorks1]

A glimpse into living with Endometriosis: Imagine spending a decade trying to convince everyone around you that you’re not imagining the pain and the symptoms. Getting diagnosed with #Endometriosis often takes that long>

>March is #EndometriosisAwarenessMonth, an opportunity to celebrate the power of a strong community in the process of dealing with a chronic condition>
