schadenfreude

ATENÇÃO! O @minsaude ampliou a indicação da vacinação da QDenga no país: Doses com um prazo de 2 meses do vencimento ➡️contemplam pessoas de 6 anos a 16 anos de idade Doses que completarem 1 mês de validade➡️contemplam pessoas de 4 anos a 59 anos

New prospective cohort in @AJCNutrition relevant to the seed oil debates: adipose linoleic acid (% total fatty acids; marker of longer term intake) in the Diet Cancer and Health danish cohort is inversely related to all cause morality (21yr follow up). ajcn.nutrition.org/article/S000...

This has to be the biggest misrepresentation of scientific results I've seen so far this year. Headlines: yoghurt may reduce your risk of cancer! Study: NOT THAT AT ALL 1/n

Nine weeks of once weekly semaglutide studied in a RCT reduces alcohol intake in individuals with moderate alcohol use disorder @jama.com jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

NIH has announced a cut in the "indirect rate" to 15% across the board, in a move that appears to be retroactive to even existing grants. This is a bloodbath for research institutions throughout the country. Brief explainer for those not in this world: https://buff.ly/3EtML7D

It is so bizarre that people believe that COVID-19 vaccines didn't prevent infection. We have gold-standard clinical trial evidence proving that they do!

This is a ridiculous story even by the standards I use to measure these things. Headlines are proclaiming that sparkling water may be useful for weight loss. The study this is based on is a completely speculative hypothesis that makes no sense. 1/n

Já que a "dieta carnívora" está no centro das atenções, este é um ótimo momento para quem ainda não ouviu conferir nosso podcast sobre o tema (de 20 de janeiro de 2025 – ou seja, antes desse caso que agora está rendendo manchetes). open.spotify.com/episode/7bxn...

Tem de tudo online hoje em dia 😅

Wanna get off GLP1-agonists but don't know how without rebounding hard? One lifestyle pattern has proven it can be done in the real world. #WFKD #LOWCARB #KETO jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

There's something particularly ludicrous about a company called OPEN AI, who trained all of their models on stolen data, getting mad that another group might be using their data to improve AI.

Hahaha, genial 😅

I saw this study in December and decided not to bother with it because no one would be ridiculous enough to fearmonger about PFAS in bloody WATCH BANDS. But here we are. Let's look at why this is EXTREMELY SILLY. 1/n

"measuring what people eat is essential for understanding health [but] >50% of the dietary reports had implausible energy intakes". Just waiting for @johnspeakman4.bsky.social to turn his hand to alcohol intake... www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Exatamente como os bolsonaristas durante as enchentes do Sul.

"It's a new dawn" he says, referencing terms that were last popular in the 90s.

Porto Alegre no New York Times de hoje, citada junto com os incêndios de L.A. (por conta da enchente de 2024) como exemplo de catástrofes climáticas e eventos extremos

Hoje matei a saudade do Café do Mercado, no mercado público de Porto Alegre (o melhor café da cidade, e olha a Latte Art!) Foi a primeira vez que voltei ao mercado desde a enchente de 2024 É muito impressionante ver as marcas da água, e a resiliência em reconstruir tudo depois da perda total

May 2025 be the year we understand: 1. Calories matter most for weight loss, but hormones influence how many we eat. 2. Exercise isn’t amazing for weight loss by itself, but it’s great for you regardless. 3. Most won’t have long term weight loss from diet and exercise alone.
