Just published in Age & Ageing using INAS data from @noca-irl.bsky.social >25% of people having strokes are in their 80s and their characteristics & outcomes are substantially better than those 90+ years. They shouldn’t be grouped together when reporting studies. doi.org/10.1093/agei...

In Ireland it’s a recommendation to carry your passport and other immigration documents with you at all times in some states and to call the Embassy if you get picked up. Sadly there also needs to be advice for transgender people whose passports don’t match their birth gender and can be declined

I have, in a funny way. I was in a chain restaurant last night in Dublin and the bathrooms were marked M and F. The problem is that in Irish Gaelic (gaelige), the official 1st language of Ireland, ‘Men’ translates as ‘Fir’ and ‘Women’ is ‘mná’. Different language, different restroom. Take your pick!

One other small issue. While listening to the Podcast I looked down at my Apple Watch fitness tracker and saw this. Gave me a bit of a shock but I might get out of doing the groceries.

Maybe you won’t get so many laughs in Ireland about the Civil Wars. Perhaps 2-3 times as many casualties as in England. 20-40% of its population dying from war, disease and famine. I know it’s typically totally ignored with all the Cavalier and Roundhead guff.

Only insofar with the definition and interpretation of same the threshold is very high. I wonder if there’s an over-emphasis on establishing it. The ICJ won’t reach a judgement for a long time, in the meantime it’ll be denied. Other war crimes & crimes against humanity are more clear & incontestable

TB was a scourge but I wonder what the effect of chronic nematode (round worm) infection was. It seems everyone (including King Richard III) was affected and the effect of chronic malnutrition, anaemia and inflammation and the vulnerability it left you for other diseases can’t be discounted.

It’s to an extent due to the success of Aspirin. After they acetylated Salicylic Acid to create it, Bayer then thought ‘what else can we acetylate’. So they diacetylated morphine to get diamorphine. It is quite a nice analgesic for severe pain.

Little known fact. Handel had previously suffered a stroke and when in Dublin for the premiere of Messiah, he suffered another mild stroke or TIA.
