Peter McCullough's take flies in the face of the weight of subject matter experts and published evidence on the topic. If you like podcast format, perhaps listen to ZDoggMD's dissection of McCullough's interview https:/

Ideal would probably be a mix of resistance training, maximal intensity-metabolic conditioning work (sprints/HIIT/plyometrics), and low intensity steady state cardio (i.e. zone 2, cardio at the pace.you can hold a conversation). E

There are more main components than that. Sometimes forces like drift are stronger than adaptive selection.

I think the cottagecore aesthetic grew out of representation in anime and Tumblr reposts, along with other less-practical/mundane aesthetics like goblincore. Rather than an actual back-to-the-land movement. With the pandemic it became

It's hard to parse that example, because the citation it contains is to a meta-analysis that provides and effect size of aspirin for MI in the PHS in the form of an odds ratio that is much greater magnitude. Digging a bit more, heres t

So your example of decades being wasted chasing an initial tiny effect size, all the time, was... An example of a failed mechanistic hypothesis that wasn't based on a tiny effect size.

Scientists aren't stupid. No one saw a paper where a predictor explained 1% of the variance in an outcome and based solely on a significant p value decided that was a great road to base an entire career on. The problem, as described by

A negative result won't make a career. I don't think there's much danger when requiring negative results going onto a repository of over incentivising negative results. You can't mandate Nature or Cell publishes negative

Nothing is wrong with publishing small effect size results. Setting a P threshold lower or a a higher bar for effect sizes for journal acceptance will just increase the positivity bias and also encourage more dodgy practices. Null results a

Pretty sure FDAAA has mandated reporting results for a while now (although some sponsors choose to break the law). Do you have an example of your scenario of an approved drug with many phase 3 trials pre-registered but only one with report

No because you have to preregister all of them.

Necessary but not sufficient. Those are issues that can plague all studies, but at least some sources of bias and error can be mitigated against with randomisation and blinding.

What I'm saying is when the largest trial and the one with probably the most leverage in the meta-analysis included turns out to be completely fraudulent, it doesn't bode well for that not being the case for other included trial

Yes, it is bad for the environment, and comparisons of the best-case grass-fed, regenerative agriculture, ideal conditions vs the worst version of agriculture to produce a plant based don't change that.
