Boncompte et al. show that cognitive function plays a significant role in mediating the relationship between #age and the oscillatory component of alpha activity. @gnboncompte shorturl.at/efpEL

How does chronological age and cognitive function contribute to intraoperative EEG aperiodic and oscillatory-specific alpha power? I am thrilled to share our last collaboration with my mentor @AkejuSeun and the great @GNBoncompte. Open access link below: track.smtpsendmail.com/9032119/c?p=bf…

In my 31 years in Chile, I’ve had the honor of serving my adopted country in unique ways—amongst them—I was appointed to the board of #jardinbotanico, Chile’s National Botanical Gardens, now 90% destroyed by the Viña del Mar fires. This hurts. Let the healing begin.

@DrBenMoran @ProfRobSanders Could you please share the reference?

How can #AI assist human learners in medical education? This is the question that Dr. Tiffany Kung, #MGHanesthesia resident, and a team of researchers investigated in a new study, specifically using #ChatGPT and the U.S. Medical Licensing Exam. Read more: spklr.io/6011YeP3

Chile's private health sector is at risk of collapse, following a judicial ruling, which could have devastating effects on the public health system. @matyoukee has more: hubs.li/Q01CPvZz0

Can we predict preoperative frailty from intraoperative EEG in the elderly? That is what we tried to find with our amazing research team. @GNBoncompte

Watch this amazing video. The water bottle cap gets lodged in his airway. He can’t breathe. His teacher saved his life. This is why everyone needs to know the Heimlich Maneuver!

Presenting @FacMedicinaUC certificates for achieving accreditation for their institution & Internal Medicine program – & the first to achieve program recognition for their Otorhinolaryngology program. Congratulations! #MedEd #RCGlobal @ucatolica @uc_chile @smoffattbruce1

@LizWhitlockMD The only scenario where I think the clinical question could be useful is in a pt with MH risk where you don’t want to use Sux… still we have Roc… so I just don’t get it!

JAMA: "So don't RSI with remi instead of sux, k?" ... Y'all, I wasn't going to, for so many reasons. That someone wanted to do the actual trial is... Ok no seriously I would never have thought to use remi. Never. So I get to continue not doing that. 🤷‍♀️ Am I missing something?

@MunicipaldeStgo Será posible reagendar a otra función de El Lago de Los Cisnes más que recibir la devolución?

Estimados públicos Junto con agradecer su preocupación queremos informarles que las funciones de El Lago de los Cisnes siguen adelante normalmente. Lamentamos la cancelación de ayer. Ya nos estamos comunicando con quienes se vieron afectados para realizar la devolución del dinero

@spenafajuri Thanks!

@Monteman80 You can draw unknown confounders in a DAG too. But the only way to get rid of them is with a reasonable "identification strategy", meaning a study design that allows you to establish causality

Hi #epitwitter, reviewer (#2) is asking to test whether there are statistically significant differences between exposure groups for several covariates (i.e. include p-values for the differences) in Table 1 in an observational study. Any refs to argue if this is a bad/good idea?

@spenafajuri Got it. DAGs help too, however even in a DAG you will only adjust for known confounding variables. What about unknown confounders? Of course you need these variables to be measured to adjust for them. This is more a question than an argument.

@Monteman80 You should adjust for confounders based on subject knowledge (we have a DAG in the paper). But if you are going anyway to adjust for the covariates in Table 1, p-values create more confusion that help
