I kindly ask my 712 followers to leave X. I will not follow it anymore or respond to any tweets. The sexual abuse option given to Grog, the X AI assistant is the immediate reason as is the elitist policy of Elon Musk.

Solar energy together with wind energy was in 2025 the main source of energy world-wide, according to Science Dec 2025. This is a phenomenal progress in fighting climate change.

UN Draft 4 1.3 billion smokers in the world, other aims are disgracefully watered down. No mention of concrete goals, eg the reduction of ultraprocessed food or of environmental gases. This reeks of industry influence right into the authorship of the UN draft.

UN Draft 3 ( yet?). The Lancet series on early onset type two diabetes has stated that in some countries there’s a prevalence of type two diabetes among adolescence of 15% or even more, the goal of reducing smoking by 150 million is astonishing due to the fact there are

UN Draft 2 caused by NCDs that could be prevented. 80% of these occur in LMCs. The high-level UN meetings that have been held up-to-date have not achieved any significant change. The zero draft of the high level political declaration has not considered any substantial changes

NCD UN High Level Draft zero 1 The recent editorial from the lancet Aug 30 stated that no significant progress in the fight against NCDs has been made. From the 60 million people dying every year around the globe around 40 million die from NCD‘s. 80% of the premature deaths

@FishingNeurons @DavidSeiffge Welldone, compliments to Berne university, it is almost 20 years since we started the European Stroke Master‘s program at Danube University. Great to see young, fresh minds coming up. @michael_brainin @ESOstroke @WorldStrokeOrg

What a privilege to host the next generation of European stroke leaders at the University of Bern. Lively discussions and curious minds stimulate us to continue our educational activities. I am very confident, that these future leaders will further decrease the burden of stroke.

The most important progress in 2024: double antiplatelet therapy is equivalent to thrombolytic therapy in mild ischemic strokes except when indicators for progression are present. Why so important? Because > 50% of all ischemic strokes are NINDS 1-5. @WorldStrokeOrg @ESOstroke

Amazon and Meta each donate 1 mio to Trump. Now they are in line with X-Musk. They could have been the ones to go face to face with him. One more reason to restrict personal use of social media, consider getting out of twitter and to prefer going to the bookshop around the corner

@PittStroke @RaulNogueiraMD @WorldStrokeOrg @PittNeurology @sheilambrasil Very fine, very simple. Good to see the polypill integrated into prevention scheme. Excellent podium! @WorldStrokeOrg @ESOstroke @michael_brainin
