Btw should I set up a livestream again of me gaming? 👾 It's mostly retro games such as Sonic or Rollercoaster Tycoon, or relaxing dumb games like Brotato and PowerWashing Simulator with me blabbering in the background 😅

aaronmccollum,

@Gina I need to see your theme park building skills

Another shout out for our new preprint,
https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/vzg3e
which we think is interesting for 3 reasons:
a) Acts as a tutorial to introduce DeclareDesign, an excellent package in R
b) Uses it to compare 2 competing analyses of a RCT run by EEF on GraphoGame
c) Argues for simulation as way forward in the 'multiple analysts' problem

Different propofol formulations demonstrate different potencies when not mixed with lignocaine, but are similar when lignocaine is mixed.

@br00t4c TL;DR: It's because the COVID mask analysis in question excluded evidence not from Randomly Controlled Trials (RCTs). But RCTs are a bad way to get evidence about masks (among other things, like the efficacy of flossing or parachutes), and there are lots of good studies that aren't RCTs about masking and COVID.

Overcoming publication and dissemination bias in infectious diseases clinical trials

If a trial is done, it should be published! Incredible statistic 👇

If you're ever gonna watch a Rollercoaster Tycoon video, make it this one.

Marcel Vos made a video where he fills a park full of LGBT+ flag colored rides & decoration. It looks absolutely amazing.

In patients with atrial fibrillation requiring cessation of warfarin for surgery, bridging anticoagulation does not change the incidence of thromboembolism, although does increase major bleeding.

Okay Stats-o-don, show me that you're more alive than the (formerly)🦜site. Please hit me with favorite refs/guidance on analysis of randomized trials where Tx is assigned within sites for part of the sample but between sites for the other part (i.e., hybrid of individual- and cluster-randomization).

I'm broadly sceptical about any dietary intervention, but at least the trial has been done now.

Demonstration by that in patients labelled allergic to but with low probablilty of this:

  1. True allergy is actually rare
  2. You can rule it out with oral penicillin challenge and not need skin testing

I had a meeting in London at lunchtime today so snuck in a whizz round The exhibition. Gorgeous. Many portraits, and some fabulous lappets and stays.
