  1. @Steve_Lindsay

    I am not sure short communication media are best for this, so I'd rather opt for a virtual or asynchronous journal club.

    Teasing with:

    - Biggest problem usually exclusions: I cannot gauge who made it into the sample at all (who has such a health plan?), but #STROBE does not look immediately bad.

    - Limited control for self-medication and childhood adversity, so yes, there may be confounding pathways of relevant magnitude.

    But on surface, much better than most in this area.

  2. Great gig in the Olympia tonight with Sleaford Mods. A lot of people shouting along to Jobs Seeker #strobe

  3. Another #PeerReview done.

    Manuscript c3,000 words
    Review c1,400 words
    1hr 45min

    This was probably the optimal scenario:
    Well-structured paper on one standard epidemiological research question and mainly clarifications with view to #STROBE needed
    journals.plos.org/plosmedicine

    I had two suggestions for the Discussion regarding potential causal drivers that the team could not control for but which might be important to consider going forward.

    And as usual no information on #MissingData was provided.

  4. tiny preview of the live set for next weekend. very much will be finalizing everything until that day, for better or worse...

    potential #flashing or #strobe warning i think? be warned if you're sensitive to that.

    (visuals will be by someone else far better & more interesting than my #glitch mess)

  5. Puls. Progress…
    Kulturpool Gusental micro-residency at altes Hallenbad Gallneukirchen.

    6 Audio Signal powered LEDs, sequenced with Max/msp
    Slowly developing first prototypes of audiorate-sequencers

    Sound is coming from a solarpanel which is installed in front of each LED, and is connected directly to the Speakers

  6. Another #PeerReview done.

    Review c1,600 words

    Using multiple indic[a]tors of the same construct as predictors in a regression equation makes it quite difficult to understand what the unique contribution of each indicator is.

    And another plug for the #STROBE reporting guideline

  7. Just my usual #NightshiftEditor reminder that when you are currently working on the (secondary) analysis of a data set and thinking of applying some regression modelling, here are some good resources:

    #STROBE for reporting
    journals.plos.org/plosmedicine

    Thinking about confounders
    ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/

    Prediction vs causation
    academic.oup.com/ije/article/4

    And avoiding the #Table2Fallacy
    ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/

    #HRQL

  8. Reflections on this week's #NightshiftEditor sessions:

    1) Suggestions to limit potential misunderstandings when presenting multiple effect estimates
    academic.oup.com/aje/article/1
    #Table2Fallacy

    2) From the instant classic "on the 12th day of Christmas, a statistician sent to me":
    (i) "Do not dichotomise continuous variables"
    (ii) "Carefully account for missing data" #STROBE
    bmj.com/content/379/bmj-2022-0

    3) We all can work on asking better research questions

  9. "There were no differences between index and control participants in key demographic variables gender, age, education, work status, and place of residence (all p > 0.05)."

    #PeerReview-er checks:
    Group 1 M.age = 48.2, SD=10
    Group 2 M.age = 52.6, SD=10
    both N=90

    For "other", brief response below would be great! ☺️

  10. Weekend #NightshiftEditor session, summary:

    #ReportingGuidlines are helpful tools for REPORTING (obvs 😂 ) but also PLANNING of research. They offer a minimal baseline what to think about when conducting a study. They do NOT prescribe a solution.

    Examples for #HRQL researchers:

    #STROBE strobe-statement.org/checklist

    #CONSORT-PRO jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/
    and TRACT researchintegrityjournal.biome

    For translations of instruments #ITC Guidelines pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/327116

    #COREQ pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/178729

  11. Routine outcome data are a valuable source of evidence.

    Using the REporting of studies Conducted using Observational Routinely-collected health Data statement this #SysReview finds that the reporting quality was largely not great:
    bmcmedresmethodol.biomedcentra

    The use of #ReportingGuidelines will not improve the study (if only used at writing stage). But readers will be in a much better position to understand the research!

  12. If you use #Apple devices and are sensitive to flashing lights, you may want to install the new #iOS 16.4 update as there’s a new accessibility feature that allows your #iPhone to automatically dim the sceeen when #flashinglights and #strobe effects appear. Just make sure you turn it on after installing the update. Some other useful features this brings include new #emoji, #voiceover in the #weather app, #notifications for web #apps, improved #duplicate photo detection as well as improved #crashdetection.
