This is kind of unfair given TVs are usually kept for a very long time. You buy the TV, didn’t understand why the price was cheaper than competitors, and a year later regret your decision. It’s not really feasible for most consumers to get

funnily enough, phenylephrine is used daily in ophthalmology for dilated eye exams. On that note, there's a bunch of esoteric drops that used to be used because of their useful pharmacokinetics, diagnostic/therapeutic abilities (c

Can someone provide an example of where this would provide value? I'm not sure I understand. The examples I see in the article (picking the 'best' pain medication or antidepressant) aren't all that interesting to me. Lik

If I understand correctly you want to pull your focus range in a little bit more, at the loss of some distance sharpness. Essentially, you just want to add a little bit of “plus” sphere to the first part of the prescription. That’s essentia

I see that a lot, and as a former biomedical engineer I would like to reframe this a bit. Regardless of field of study in college, be it engineering, humanities, science, etc, you learn valuable skills that are almost certainly applicable t

I went through a few weeks of debating with myself the benefits of getting an e-ink tablet for note taking, reading, etc. I need color for the majority of stuff that I read/study/work on, which was certainly one point against rema

Back in the day, I worked in a lab studying the effects of an alternative NF-kB pathway on osteoclast differentiation (osteoclasts eat up bone) and growth. One of the papers demonstrated that certain anti-cancer drugs (used in breast cancer

This loses sight of the lack of incentive missing from hospitals and even residency programs from funding their own positions. There’s literally no regulation preventing a program from funding their own without Medicare dollars. They just n

I think this reporting is dancing around the issue, that the vaccine supply is most concentrated in countries that have essentially reached their maximum vaccination percentage. By not providing access to those developing or smaller countri

I’d imagine the limiting factor in all of these is still functionality of these organs. We can reorganize them to look somewhat like the actual organ (like in the linked article), but whether or not the organ functions the same is still un

No, we definitely don’t. If the treatment arm is seen as largely effective, the data safety and monitoring board will most definitely recommend unblinding participants and publishing the results as is. Please educate me with trials that do
