Don’t know about the exact inverse. But disease X could be improved while disease Y risk rises. It’s curious that both studies are about cardiac health. Maybe there’s different types of FAO, or FAO is desirable in some cell types but not in others.
- thfuran 3y agoIf you have fifty different groups studying roughly the same thing and publishing any interesting-looking results with p<.05, you're probably going to have some spurious results on the topic. If you have 500 groups, you're going to have a lot of spurious and probably some outright contradictory results published.
