There’s an important caveat to keep in mind when it comes to food databases, especially those relying on branded or restaurant items: U.S. law does not require food manufacturers to disclose everything that goes into their products. Under t

It’s easy to paint with broad strokes, but sweeping generalizations rarely capture the full picture. Not all of us “gatekeep” or overprescribe, we follow evidence-based guidelines and clinical judgment. When a patient presents with nonspeci

Just force price transparency. Force drug makers to advertise the selling prices of their drugs, and enforce price discrimination laws. Force insurance and PBM companies to advertise the drug prices if purchased through insurance or PBM. Ev

Profits over patients. Pharmacies have to have crazy high prices though because PBMs reimburse at such shit rates, based on some percentage of the price given to them. Because if they buy the bottle at $30 and list the price at $60, the PBM

The blinding? Functionally useless UNLESS the researchers genuinely believe subjects couldn't tell whether they were in a psychedelic fugue state or on a placebo. The ketanserin condition? A self-congratulatory exercise in proving that

The most egregious limitation is the absurdly small sample size (n=16), which utterly cripples its statistical power. The authors throw around p-values without any serious correction for multiple comparisons.. Their confidence intervals (CI

I don't care to dissuade you from anything - you are flat-out wrong on things. In my opinion, hEDS is a real condition, but sick-tok is causing patients to demand from physicians a dx - regardless if they meet the clinical criteria for

Being 'bad statistics is malpractice' is just wrong on so many levels. Medical malpractice requires a deviation from evidence-based practice that results in harm.. hEDS is diagnosed based on guidelines, not just "obvious stat

There is clearly an entity of hEDS with a yet-to-be-discovered gene. However, the clinical criteria are not very specific and the diagnosis has been given out both for people who don’t fit the criteria and for people who do but are unlikely

FQ toxicity is likey caused by SNP in a specific gene related to pharmaceutical metabolism (one of the CYP450s). I believe this was published in the literature. Another possibility is that FQ toxicity is caused by certain genes relating to

Possibly. Another thing that could be is that I damaged the cable (somehow) when disconnecting it. Or, the Realtek TOSLINK has some design/implementation flaws. Another possibility? could be placebo

Just an update: I switched out the 'TOSLINK' over to a standard coax and the sound is much better - not on par with the Recon 3D card, but it's an improvement. I am using some Logitech speakers and not headphones.

I can't speak for CMPA or QL, but I can speak a little bit on Unlagged: - w/ Unlagged, the Server now stores a history buffer (g_activeSnapshots[]) of player states. When processing a action shot, it uses the timestamp sent by the
