The reassembly did. The battery unfortunately remained defunct. Probably the motherboard or something similar.

Also how did you extract the URLs with #rstats? I found the plist file but it requires some transformation from binary and I wasn’t sure whether that was going to be helpful

Definitely! Through further investigations I’ve come across @spamsieve.bsky.social and will give that a whirl to see whether it does a better job than the almost nonexistent 🍎algorithm

And the journals list itself is useful but we obviously need the server addresses 😇

Let’s see how we could do that. I’ll have a look too, mine should be on iOS and macOS mostly. Server side not much is happening it seems

Who fancies creating a blacklist of predatory journals with me? I’m getting fed up with blocking them manually @kiwiskinz.bsky.social

Sunday tasks - fixing the broken Kindle of the OH. Turns out it’s a ton of glue that holds this stuff together. I’ll keep you all posted on how the reassembly goes, as & when the new battery arrives.

Straight forward radial - yes. But any issues/PVD/… - grab the USS and have a look. Also enables you to go ulnar if radial not an option.

All the time. But so I should, as an IC #cardiosky There’s lots of value added, even in radial punctures that are not straight forward. Agree Rosie!

In 2019, we wrote a paper showing that patients with left ventricular thrombus have a long-term risk of embolism, extending to at least 8 years. We were puzzled by the finding… #CardioSky www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/...
Figure 2 from the paper. Incidence of embolism in left ventricular (LV) thrombus patients compared with matched non-LV thrombus patients. Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrate the cumulative incidence of the composite embolic end point in the LV thrombus (in red) and in the matched non-LV thrombus (in blue) groups. Note the significant difference in the cumulative incidence of embolic events between the 2 groups.

Regression to the mean? Participants more likely to remember meds when scheduled for office visit? Less anxiety knowing they had a procedure?

Table 3 shows it quite nicely. 24h BP drops in both groups (RDN & sham) but more so in the former - as expected. What’s happening at the office visits though? -15 and -8 drop in the sham group. Less pronounced but still there.

Renal denervation sham controlled trial published in CircAHA doi.org/10.1161/CIRCUL… - how intriguing! Great effort by the investigators - but I have questions.
