If you've had a kidney stone, you've been advised that the most important thing to prevent another bout is to increase hydration. Now a randomized trial of hydration in over 1600 participants showed no benefit, despite evidence of increase during volume. thelancet.com/journals/lance…

@EricTopol Total fail, Eric. The increase in volume was negligible between control and intercen, and the intervention group was 40% below the recommended guideline. This trial only showed that compliance is difficult.

@reallyoptimized @EricTopol Yeah so just a straight misinterpretation of the results 🤦🏼‍♀️

@reallyoptimized @EricTopol 100% correct

@reallyoptimized @EricTopol But trying to negate basic knowledge is cool!
