Sometimes. Not reliably. I've seen studies correlating antibiotic therapy with reduced dementia rates in the next 5 or 10 years or something, but you can just as well wipe your gut microbiome and open it up to opportunistic pathogens.

Respectfully... how do you work in the field, while being so wrong? Oxygen desaturation correlates with long-term metabolic outcomes, but correlates very poorly to day-to-day symptoms. The actual primary cause of symptoms in SDB is microaro

Except that out of 10 answers, the "quick answer" is subtly wrong 6 times, egregiously wrong 2, and outright dangerous once. I've seen screenshots of stuff that would get people killed or in legal trouble.

I already went through a realization a while ago that you just can't mention something to people anymore and expect them to be able to learn about it by searching the web, like it used to be possible, because everything is just unrelia

The problem with CPAP is that 40% of patients don't tolerate it even for the 4h/night defined as treatment compliance, while most of the rest use it less than the full duration of the night, with studies demonstrating that treatme

Every single one of the above is true. The self-healing capacity of ordinary Portland cement is very limited, but it's there, and you can easily find literature backing this fact up, e.g.[1] You can also trivially look up strength figu

Modern concrete is also self-healing to a degree, while being vastly stronger. It's just subjected to incomparably higher stress. We also never really "lost" the method of making concrete self-healing, t's just never bee

I think you're conflating the idea of "shared culture" with "isolation from other social groups". We used to have more friends at the same time as we had more shared context thanks to media distribution patterns.

The bulk of Palantir's business is military-related. They are THE "go from a target to a kill plan" company, right now, and not only for the US.
