Two papers. On the left, a non-randomized, non-crossover study showing that a one-off sauna exposure significantly decreased arterial stiffness, with implications on cardiovascular health. On the right, a randomized, crossover (more robust) study, showing no benefits on arterial stiffness or blood flow. Note the colossal difference in Altmetric score and media attention. The media favors sensational but flawed studies over rigorous ones, distorting public understanding. #science #media

What do you think, can you graduate and get a PhD if you did everything right but didn't get any original results worth publishing? I have a feeling most people would say 'no', but in my opinion it's a 'yes'. Where would science be if we don't try things that can fail?

Community didn’t respond well to a risk-reduction focus—felt like blame. Shifting to a strength-based approach fosters empowerment, resilience, and highlights cultural strengths. Changing the paradigm is key to positive engagement @edstrivens @padmakumarc2 @JKDhesi @anzsgm #CALD

Scotland has detected no cases of cervical cancer in women born between 1988 and 1996 who were fully vaccinated against HPV between the ages of 12 and 13. statnews.com/2024/01/25/hpv…

The SR accelerator is a fantastic tool. Google it! Whenever I tell clinician researchers about it and show them they always say "I wish I'd known about this X ago". True to form, @Institute4EBH backs up everything they do with research. 🤩

I am standing again for council for @rcgp . the college needs to stand up for evidence based practice: for example, policy on PAs should not be written by people who are profiting from it; education about eg obesity should not be via companies who are prescribing for it,
