Whoops. An Australian review triggered by transgender panic finds that puberty blockers and other care for adolescence is safe, effective, and reversible if desired. Awkward for the folks who clamored for this review. www.abc.net.au/news/2024-09...

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

The BMJ journal Archive of Disease in Childhood has just published the epidemiological study done by York university that was commissioned as part of the Cass review into gender clinics in the UK. It contains some STARTLING (and yet, unsurprising) revelations. 1/n

My very last issue (on ♿️) has now come out with BMJ Medical Humanities: I have stepped down from my role as Editor in Chief. There are a lot of factors—after 17 years editing two consecutive journals, it was time. But there’s more, and I feel we should talk about the climate of #academic publishing

Let's have a chat about "Extrication following a Motor Vehicle Collision" It's written by some people you probably know: Tim Nutbeam, Rob Fenwick, Charlotte Haldane, Caroline Leech, Emily Foote, Simon Todd, David Lockey Honestly, this is a breath of fresh air following years of cutting off roofs.

You may have seen the news of the permanent ‘puberty blocker’ ban for gender dysphoric youth. Obviously, this comes at a time when there is significant ideological interference in this area. What’s the truth? Let’s take a deep dive:

People often talk about the time critical nature of sepsis. But it may surprise you to hear that the evidence to support “early” antibiotics actually isn't a settled debate. Why is that? The key question is “early in relation to what”? 🧵 1/n

This certainly leads one to pause for reflection. Male anaesthetists report significantly higher confidence for managing peri-operative cardiac arrests than their female colleagues, HOWEVER…their clinical outcomes were actually the same. #LCAS2024 #LTC2024
