Recurrent #diverticulitis is associated with increased recurrence and #surgery, yet long-term #outcomes remain poorly defined. Surgery may improve QoL but increase reinterventions. Standardizing definitions could inform future studies. Full article: rdcu.be/pL4uSVBSHgpa

The lifespan of these platforms is fairly short lived, so I suspect another will eventually fill the void. The interim period isn’t great though…

I recently learned about www.openevidence.com and it seems very accurate from my cursory experience. I think there will soon be AI models that are more factually correct that may be better suited for such initiatives.
