Då har jag läst ut ”Åk till akuten” av @fnyosv.bsky.social . Boken tar alla de enskilda debattpunkterna inom sjukvård - och placerar dem ÄNTLIGEN i ett sammanhang - historiskt, socialt, ekonomiskt m.m. Ingen politiker borde få besluta något om sjukvård, innan den läst den här boken!

Many studies have shown that there is no relationship between MMR vaccine and the development of autism. Here are two of the best.

This one followed every single child born in Denmark from 1991 through 1998 (n=537,303). There was no association.

Verkligheten för alla som har barn med funktionsnedsättning.

Jag vet att det pratas en del om människor med både autism och ADHD. Ibland kallas det superkraft!

Men en grupp man sällan pratar om är alla med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning (IF).

Det är något fundamentalt egocentriskt med den här typen av ”hälsotrend”. Att målet med livet skulle vara att optimera kroppen (med helt meningslösa metoder).

Vänd blicken ut istället för in hela tiden. Lev livet och lita på kroppen. Den berättar när något är på tok. Innan dess kan du chilla.

Way too many articles are all 'we followed PRISMA 2020' but then don't even hit item 1. Call a systematic review a systematic review in the damn title.

Tänker mycket på det där ”en fantastisk man är bara en medelmåttig kvinna”. Grejerna som män får beröm för? Min kille fick bokstavligen höra ”du är en fantastisk förälder” av en främling sist han åkte tåg själv 3h med barnen. Tror ni jag någonsin fått en komplimang efter resor på 7, 9, 23 timmar?

Systemen med forskningstidskrifter, granskning och ersättning är långt ifrån perfekta. Men de flesta statliga forskningsfinansiärer har lagt till krav på att forskningen ska publiceras öppet när man får anslag. Se exempelvis VR: www.vr.se/uppdrag/oppe...

Vetenskapsrådet driver utvecklingen mot öppen tillgång till vetenskapliga publikationer tillsammans med andra forskningsfinansiärer i och utanför Sverige. Det gör vi bland annat genom att ha riktlinje...

Great initiative by Wiley! The publisher has started marking retracted papers in reference lists. When you click on the retraction notice, you can also see the date and reason for the retraction.
All publishers should adopt this practice. But also screen references during submission.
