#OriginalResarch In individuals with #diabetes, obesity (BMI, waist circumference, fat mass) were associated with increased risk of HF. No association of obesity and HF in those without diabetes. @totocarbone @kershawpatel @mattsegar @PowellWileyLab ow.ly/nxnz50H7tBN

@parthaskar @DiabetologiaJnl I don't understand this comment Partha. To correct you slightly, if I may, your #NHS England team is implementing look-alike programmes, whereas #NHS Scotland is implementing the evidence-based DiRECT/Counterweight-Plus programme. I hope they all work well.

@DiabetologiaJnl You are a respected diabetes journal How about specifying the type at all points clearly It’s genuinely super annoying to see high profile outlets not get this right (And no a hashtag isn’t clear enough) Regards Team implementing this programme in #NHS

Diet is more powerful than any drug we have for diabetes: Mike Lean talks about the effect of diet-induced diabetes remission on blood pressure in the DiRECT trial #T2D #diabetesremission #bloodpressure

@MichaelAlbertMD That link is to the accepted but uncorrected version. Publication of the final correct online version in Diabetologia has been delayed by 'technical issues' at the journal.

“Published meta-analyses of diets for weight management in people with type 2 diabetes do not support recommending any particular macronutrient profile or style over others. VLEDs and formula meal replacement appear the most effective approaches..."

@KarnaMikko @theSNP @NicolaSturgeon What became of this suggestion?

Congratulation @theSNP @NicolaSturgeon for your huge victory in #Scotland elections! I am confident, you will vote for independence soon after pandemic is over. In the meantime, I will launch an initiative to Nordic Council: we will ask Scotland to join council as an observer.

@TaheriShahrad Thanks, Shahrad. Experimental, but I had a full year to think about it!

@MEJLean Fascinating review of a fantastic career. Congratulations

100 years after the discovery of #insulin, leading to his #NobelPrize, the #DiabetesUK 2021 Banting Memorial Lecture is now published. A personal journey in #diabetesresearch onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/dm…

A worthwhile evening spent refreshing Good Clinical Practice with #NIHRGCP

@KarnaMikko @theSNP @NicolaSturgeon Please do. We don't need to be independent to join the Nordic Council as an observer nation. But a step in the right direction, amongst Nordic friends.

Here is a wee message, with a new tune, from Scotland for 2021 and the future. For sharing! youtu.be/d4yjrGdJTZ0

@PhantomPower14 Feel free to share widely if you like the message or the wee tune. youtu.be/d4yjrGdJTZ0

Aldi is the place to catch Covid. All staff wandering about without masks in the Forfar branch. Must be company policy.

@ArgyleBecky Because we in NHS are working round the clock, way beyond contracted hours to save people like you and your Westminster leader.

Covid is obviously worse than flu but the evidence shows that the national death rates are no higher than any other year. Why are we blindly accepting all the propaganda which is destroying our economy

@ArgyleBecky @TimesPictures @hendopolis I suggest you pay a visit to our ITU, and take down that selfish Tweet

@TimesPictures @hendopolis No more lockdowns - as a law abiding citizen, who has never disobeyed the law, I will not be following any further lockdowns and I know I am not alone, enough is enough.

National lockdown looms #TomorrowsPapersToday @hendopolis

@Stewmercer @grahamwatt4 Too much hope I fear

@grahamwatt4 Well let's hope so

So today is my 100th and last tune-in-the-fireplace, and i'm joined by @MEJLean, @Maristotle, @Mleanmachine and @patsyseddon to play the Blue Bonnets over the Border (as arranged by @johnmccusker). youtu.be/APZq6nap4wA

@MEJLean has joined me to play tonights tune-in-the-fireplace. According to the piece of paper, @scottishfiddler taught us this on 22/9/99 (we have tried (hard) to play it as written). We think it's by Tommy People, but we cant find its name...
