  1. A new #MetaAnalysis finds that vegetarian and vegan diets are linked to lower cancer risk (-13% and -23% for total cancer), adds to the evidence supporting much more plant-based dietary patterns in the general population: doi.org/10.1007/s106... #Review #Vegan #PlantBased #Diets #Cancer #Health

  2. New meta-analysis out on the role of sexual selection in speciation!

    Across the Animal kingdom, we found that stronger sexual selection is significantly (though weakly) associated with greater species richness in comparative studies — suggesting a modest role for sexual selection in speciation.

    A great collaboration with Tim Janicke, Jeanne Tonnabel, Tamra Mendelson & Mike Ritchie.

  3. Busy week, I have not much posted from #RSS2025. This will follow in the next days.

    For now, I enjoyed chatting with Robert Grant and am reading his co-authored book "Bayesian #MetaAnalysis" which he kindly gave me a copy of 🙇

    I am always looking combinations of unusual and cross-cutting themes for teaching/ training, so I'll do a parallel read with #MixtureModels in this area: link.springer.com/chapter/10.1

  4. Plant-based diets are beneficial for #health & #environment. Now a #review & meta-analysis showed that there are no real differences btwn #plantbased & omnivorous #diets in terms of upper body, lower body & overall muscular strength, either: doi.org/10.1186/s407... #metaanalysis #RCTs #muscles

  5. Remember Ludwig Fleck's socio-intellectual forms of science? In 1935, he described the novelty of findings along different document types that can be found in science. Today, many links between document types and intellectual functions can be identified. Think of #Preprints, #SystematicReviews #MetaAnalysis #Guidelines #Handbooks #SoftwarePaper #DataPaper etc.
    (I put a little typology here: arxiv.org/abs/2406.15154)

  6. Our meta-analysis on the impact of neonicotinoids on birds is out at Ecology Letters: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/fu

    A massive effort by my co-authors putting together such a comprehensive dataset (1612 effect sizes from 49 studies). The results unfortunately show consistent negative effects of neonicotinoid exposure on bird health, behaviour, reproduction, and survival and might be a contributing factor to the extensive bird declines globally.

  7. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/388583 A meta-analysis of the effects of ketamine on suicidal ideation in depression patients (Shen, et al, 2024) #ketamine #suicidality #psychedelic #psychedelics #psychedelicresearch #ketaminetherapy #depression #metaanalysis #research Note: Presumably you’re not going to rely solely on a medicine if dealing with suicidality. Human psychotherapy and support is essential parts of ongoing mental health.

  8. Working on a #SystematicReview and #metaanalysis 🌪️
    I have a basic problem with 'esc' package

    When I want convert (un)standardized beta to r, I can't use vectors with esc_beta or esc_B , but it is ok if I convert beta in d or g.

    I want convert numerous Beta in r.

    Ideas ? :rickroll:

  9. Quality of life as an outcome of psychological treatments in people living w schizophrenia-spectrum disorders:

    #MetaAnalysis of 60 independent #RCTs, analysing associations btw treatments (psychoeducation, CBT, cognitive, ...) and QOL (QLS, #WHOQOL, MANSA):
    cambridge.org/core/journals/ps

    It covers subjective (k=45) and objective (k=15) QOL outcomes
    #HRQL #BeyondWilsonCleary

    Interestingly, the latter were more frequently considered as #PrimaryOutcome-s in the analysed studies.

  10. I moderated a panel on "Measuring in ways that matter: Leveraging content and context in outcome assessments" at #SPRDublin2023.

  11. #ImplicitBias isn’t “unconscious”?

    “…participants in all 17 studies were able to accurately predict the patterns of their IAT results (…b = .44) …across samples, settings [online vs. in-person lab studies], countries …, and languages…. [These] results strengthen the hypothesis that cognitions reflected on implicit evaluations are accessible to conscious awareness.”

  12. apple.news/AQ9AZHb8-SquLoUrXid I think findings like this get blurred by people with only limited and pseudoscientific understandings of #research, #studies, #metaanalysis, etc. #Science, like many things, does NOT exist in a vacuum, and the point this article makes about #conclusions constantly being challenged and updated is very #important to remember. The biggest issue is that it's far easier to take a stance on an issue

  17. One of my favourite moments is when I see my article in its final layout for the first time. And this one (dealing with a #MetaAnalysis collecting case data from #SplitBrain patients) turned out particularly nice, I think. link.springer.com/content/pdf/
