  1. Objective Measurement

    It sounded so good.
    Goodbye to subjective evaluations like "Could try harder".
    Hello to "Afsahna has demonstrated competency in Module 7 of the 3rd year curriculum." Or "The residents have all received their medication by 10am every day."

    But it became all too obvious that focussing on what can be measured objectively, in any bureaucratic environment, has the subjective side of things discounted & defunded.

    Or worse. As the #CassReport showed.

  6. Andreas Edmüller hat mit mir für den deutschen Blog der Dawkins Foundation über den #CassReport und die Probleme mit dem gender-affirmativen Ansatz gesprochen. Herausgekommen sind drei Teile. #Trans #Transkids #LGBTQ #detransition #queer Hier lesen: de.richarddawkins.net/articles/der...

  7. CW: uk, trans genocide

    @MayInToronto this is a great opportunity to remind that even Dr. Cass herself opposes this policy. the person who wrote the document they're using as an excuse thinks this is the wrong move.
    but I guess facts don't matter too much when you want to exterminate trans kids.

  8. We've seen what ⁨#EBM⁩ ⁨#EvidenceBasedMedicine⁩ produces;
    on #Masking with #TomJefferson⁩ assisted by #Cochrane,
    the decades of infectious respiratory disease research that poo-hooed #AirborneTransmission, and,
    the RWNJ #CassReport⁩ on care for transgender kids.

    Lots of bad stuff resulting from fetishising ⁨#RandomControlledTrials⁩ ⁨#RCTs⁩ as the only research that can be relied on.

    Will we hear from Trumpists that there's no RCTs that support action on #ClimateChange?

  9. 1/2
    There are academics / scientists who distinguish between #EBM #EvidenceBasedMedicine and #SBM #ScienceBasedMedicine.

    EBM seems to fetishise #RandomControlledTrails #RCTs as the #GoldStandard and has given us at least the #Cochrane review on #Masking by #TomJefferson.

    And, I think, also the #CassReport into medical care for young transgender people. Here AIUI over relevant 700 studies were rejected on the basis that they weren't RCTs leaving 2 RTCs considered.

  10. The UK Cass report advocates clinical trials for all hormone-blockers and gender-affirming medications. A feasible, established practice in Canada and the UK for many therapeutics.

    Individuals receiving trans care can participate in affordable research using routinely-collected data, an approach that is supported by the public and adheres to strict privacy and ethical standards—akin to vaccine surveillance during the pandemic.
