PubMed, RePORTER, and NCBI all working for me as long as I am on the VPN. When I sign out of the VPN, I get the β€œCan’t open page” message that others are reporting.

Among many other things, this is a research ethics issue, doing something different with data than what was expressed to research participants when they agreed to participate.

Download CDC Guidelines Removed By The Trump Admin The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.

I'm trying to save them.

You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

Couldn’t agree more! Exactly how I’m feeling today. We need to keep doing what we know is important work, despite the road blocks they may try to throw in our way.

Important statement from ASCO on the association between alcohol consumption and cancer risk, as well as the potential for adverse treatment outcomes. Article is a nice review of the current evidence, and provides public health policy recommendations.

Motto in our household this week is β€œjust say no to faux nog”. The bird-flu related egg shortage is putting a damper on my holiday cheer!

Note - the article itself says nothing about diet or ultra-processed foods (UPF), but the authors themselves are quoted talking about UPF in the press releases.

100% concur. I eagerly read this article after seeing the press release and was so annoyed to find that these researchers made this HUGE leap in ascribing their findings to ultra-processed foods when they made NO attempts to actually measure or assess anything related to dietary intake.

OMG this! I’ve always thought it was a bit self-aggrandizing when people list this on a CV. As if every lecture isn’t β€œinvited”?
