26 giu. 2026, dalla Redazione de ‘L’Antidiplomatico’: «”Complici del genocidio a Gaza”: la durissima petizione contro i medici israeliani pubblicata su The Lancet»
>> Oltre 1.150 professionisti e organizzazioni sanitarie hanno lanciato il 13 giugno una petizione per il boicottaggio dell’Associazione medica israeliana (IMA), accusandola di non rispettare l’etica medica e di dimostrare “complicità” nel genocidio dei palestinesi a Gaza.
L’iniziativa è guidata dal People’s Health Movement (PHM), da Medici per Gaza e dal Consiglio consultivo sanitario del gruppo Jewish Voice for Peace.
Le organizzazioni chiedono all’Associazione Medica Mondiale (WMA) di interrompere l’adesione all’IMA per il suo silenzio sulla sistematica distruzione delle infrastrutture sanitarie da parte di Israele e sull’uccisione, il rapimento e la tortura di medici, infermieri e soccorritori palestinesi.
La petizione è stata pubblicata anche su The Lancet, la rivista medica più prestigiosa al mondo. <<[…]

Polycystic ovary syndrome (#PCOS) was officially renamed Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (#PMOS) on May 12, 2026,. This change, published in The #Lancet and announced at the European Congress of Endocrinology, followed a rigorous 14-year global consensus process. The update aims to reduce stigma, improve diagnosis, and accurately reflect the condition's complex, multi-system nature beyond just the ovaries.
This is huge news for women, as it’s estimated that up to a third of women experience some PMOS symptoms. The previous nomenclature meant that many women were not being diagnosed correctly. As a matter of #bioethics of women’s treatment, this is a big sea change. As to how it changes medical professional’s approach, we will have to determine.

Dr Karl interview with Professor Ollie Jay talking about a report Jay co-authoured in The Lancet on the topic of effects on health and productivity of the increased heat in the planet. Pretty shocking, very interesting, very worth a listen.

'... Just imagine if you were to select panellists with different perspectives: they might push the conversation in an uncomfortable direction or accidentally make the panel interesting. Play it safe; who has time to be bold in global health anyways? ...'

Claims on Exercise for Long COVID Were “Overly Assertive,” Agree Meta-Analysis Authors
By David Tuller, DrPH *This is a crowdfunding month at UC Berkeley. If you’d like to support my work, the link is here. I posted two days ago that a Lancet journal, eClinicalMedicine, had just published a letter of mine, as well as an unsatisfactory corrigendum to the study I had criticized. That study, “Effects of therapeutic interventions on long COVID: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials,” from Tan et al, reported “high-certainty evidence” in favor of exercise interventions, and suggested they “should be prioritized.” My letter challenged that perspective. The corrigendum related to just one concern I had raised, and I found it unsatisfactory. As it turned out, the record wasn’t complete. I had assumed the corrigendum was, in effect, the response to my letter. But at some point since then, the journal posted a direct response to my letter from the meta-analysis authors, in which they thanked me for my observations, among other remarks. Here is one passage from their response that jumps out: “We must acknowledge that certain expressions used in our writing, such as “high-certainty evidence” and “should be prioritized,” may have come across as overly assertive and could potentially lead to misinterpretation by readers. It would indeed have been more appropriate to phrase these as “evidence of moderate certainty” or “may be considered a preferred option.” We deeply appreciate your valuable feedback regarding these less precise formulations. Your comments contribute significantly to the rigor of academic discourse.” I’m glad the authors agree that they should have toned down their language, although their substitute phrasings are still too positive, in my view. What I find especially perplexing is that they had an opportunity to fix these conclusions with the corrigendum—and they didn’t. As it stands, the article continues to assert that there is “high-certainty evidence” for exercise … -
Lancet Journal Publishes My Letter Challenging Claims on Exercise and Long COVID
By David Tuller, DrPH *This is a crowdfunding month at UC Berkeley. If you’d like to support my work, the link is here. Last year, eClinicalMedicine, a journal in the Lancet stable, published an article called “Effects of therapeutic interventions on long COVID: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.” The paper reported that, according to “high-certainty evidence,” exercise training could improve health and “should be prioritized”. These conclusions were preposterous, for multiple reasons. (I wrote about it here and here.) I wrote a letter to the editor, which has just been published. The editing process was relatively easy. I was asked to remove some words that were considered a bit excessive for academic discourse. For example, I’d written that the claimed findings “cannot be taken seriously,” and the word “preposterous” had also found its way into the letter. No matter. The changes were easy enough to make. The journal has also published a very unsatisfactory response and formal corrigendum from the meta-analysis authors. I have included the text of both below. ********** My letter to eClinicalMedicine Comments regarding “Effects of therapeutic interventions on long COVID: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials” David Tuller A recent article, “Effects of therapeutic interventions on long COVID: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials,” reported “high-certainty evidence” that exercise training can improve health and “should be prioritized”.1 I would like to raise some concerns regarding this study that may impact the conclusions drawn by the authors. First, the dozens of trials in the meta-analysis feature heterogeneous definitions of Long COVID. In some cases, it appears that trial participants did not even have Long COVID. For example, a Brazilian study included “subjects with coronavirus disease 2019 in the acute phase”.2 Pooling together trials with heterogeneous populations, and including results from participants who do not meet definitions of Long COVID, … -

Talouspakotteiden hinta: 28 miljoonaa ”ylimääräistä” kuolemaa
Kun kansainvälisessä politiikassa puhutaan sodasta, ajatuksemme kääntyvät räjähdyksiin. Olemme oppineet tunnistamaan väkivallan silloin, kun se on äänekästä ja näkyvää. Samaan aikaan kabineteissa, kaukana pölyisiltä taistelukentiltä, suunnitellaan talouspakotteita, joiden vaikutus on kliinisempi, hiljaisempi – ja usein monin verroin tuhoisampi. Silti pakotteista puhutaan yhä kuin ne olisivat sodan rauhanomainen vaihtoehto. Ovatko ne? Keskustelu pakotteiden […]https://www.vasemmistonyt.fi/2026/03/15/talouspakotteiden-hinta-28-miljoonaa-ylimaaraista-kuolemaa/

"'One year of failure.' The Lancet slams RFK Jr.'s first year as health chief."
And that is the sad truth about public health in the US. A brain-dead conspiracy theorist is causing havoc, destroying years of accomplishments.

[Lancet flames RFKjr on its cover.]
Cue the administration seeing in the FBI and badmouthing The Lancet as partisan and smearing it without evidence as serving rich corporations instead of science or public health .

AI tools used in a medical context are easily fooled by misinformation that's delivered in an authoritative tone.
That’s the finding of a recent study published in The Lancet Digital Health which assessed the outputs of 20 LLMs used in a medical context, including models specially trained on medical data.
