Here, despite younger age at diagnosis, lower prevalence of obesity and diabetes family history, individuals with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes who had a low birthweight were more likely to have greater use of glucose-lowering medications and a larger burden of comorbidity. 
- Low birthweight is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes but it is unknown whether low birthweight is associated with distinct clinical characteristics at disease onset.
- This study examined whether a lower or higher birthweight in type 2 diabetes is associated with clinically relevant characteristics at disease onset.
Women Can’t Be Forced To Choose Between Right To Education And Reproductive Autonomy: Delhi High Court @nupur_0111 #DelhiHC livelaw.in/high-court/del…
“The Constitution as adopted on 26th of November, 1949 served as a pledge that the citizens of India made to themselves. A pledge to disassociate ourselves from the parochial notions of society that prevented the ushering of equality,” #DelhiHighCourt #MaternityLeave
Court: It was without any form of equivocation that the people asserted their right to be treated equally. Irrespective of gender, race, religion or caste, citizens were to claim their opportunities.

This one in macaques suggests that a maternal Western-style diet may alter long-term immune cell developmental programming in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in utero, predisposing the offspring to inflammatory disease across the lifespan.
- Maternal Western-style diet exposure was associated with in utero developmental programming of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells to a pro-inflammatory phenotype.
- Maternal Western-style diet exposure was associated with persistent pro-inflammatory phenotypes at the transcriptional, metabolic, and functional levels in bone marrow-derived macrophages and in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in juvenile offspring...
🇮🇱 48,868 babies followed for first 120 days of life. Does being born after a #CovidVaccine booster in #pregnancy protect against hospitalisation for COVID?
👉🏻 Yes! With 53% effectiveness compared to two doses only.

👉🏻 Protection is greater when the booster dose is given later in pregnancy

A lot of parents and paediatricians have been in touch with me recently querying the policy of offering a booster as early as possible. Wouldn’t it be better to delay and maximise protection for babies? The authors have something to say here… 3/

Two days ago I released a bombshell tweet exposing the shenanigans that the pharma companies and academia play in order to suppress toxicity data related to novel therapies.
This is the tweet, with the hashtag #placentagate

The #placentagate tweet was then completely suppressed by twitter in a new shadowbanning technique that rendered the tweet invisible even to people who tried to click on it.
There was something special about this, so we dubbed it #placentagategate

Viki doesn't actually quote studies showing the vaccine does not cross the placenta but a new study has just come out showing Lipid nanoparticles crossing into the placenta and delivering active mRNA.
This is what luciferase expression in mouse PLACENTAS from LNP-mRNA look like

We recommend reading @CCriadoPerez's Invisible Women, about the ways policy development & impact assessments fail to assess the impact on women.
Equality Impact Assessments matter.
We have asked @TeamQEH to correct their EIAs to include the 4 missing protected characteristics.
Equality Impact Assessments matter.
We have asked @TeamQEH to correct their EIAs to include the 4 missing protected characteristics.
Despite now having the correct list of protected characteristics in V3 of the @TeamQEH Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Policy, the policy & EIAs do not cover those with the protected characteristic of sex as it uses the word “gender” instead of sex. >

Now we're going to have to assume (because the titles are redacted🤦♀️) that the first forest plot shows the #miscarriage rate in each study. The bigger the square the more the weighting in the study - generally more for bigger studies.

Young woman with unexpected cause of repeated bouts of vomiting
1. 1999: It was another busy day, when I had seen 60 outpatients, worked up & written case notes for 8 ward admissions and had finished seeing 14 consultations (from other depts). It was 2 AM and I needed some sleep.

2. Residency at CMC Vellore in 90s was tough, which denied even 4 hours of sleep on many nights. Got a call from Gastro ward regarding a 25-yr old woman who had repeated episodes of vomiting for one week. Detailed evaluation by gastro dept could not identify the cause of vomiting
3. Neurology opinion was sought to rule out neuro-related causes of vomiting (such as cyclical vomiting syndrome, brain-stem lesions, migraine, etc).
I took a detailed history. She had no symptoms other than vomiting. On examination, she was dehydrated and looked weak.

The objective of the report is to present a comprehensive and critical analysis of the risk-benefit balance of the product, taking into account new or emerging safety information in the context of cumulative information on risk and benefits.’

The report was submitted by Pfizer to the European Medicine Agency. The EMA then assesses the information found in the report to determine if any new risks are identified or if the risk-benefit balance has changed.

No doses of vaccine in pregnancy = 3.76 per 1000
One+ dose in pregnancy = 3.3 per 100
95% confidence intervals do not cross.
A significant increase then, right?

#OBGYN #pregnancy #COVID19 The obstetrician Kimberely Biss out of Florida is quite misguided on her statements in the hallway. One of the simplest rules of research is that you cannot necessarily generalize your personal experience to the whole population.
The actual situation on cervical cancer screening is more complicated than what she discusses - there was a lapse in screening/ diagnosis, which needed to catch up. She implies that COVID vaccines cause cervical cancer - NO, HPV does (in most cases). jamanetwork.com/journals/jamao…

Miscarriage can be one of the most traumatic experiences ever but even then, systematic analysis is necessary.

This has happened with every paper looking at 3+ doses. When you look at the 2-dose patients in those studies, the claimed benefit disappears.
It's because the original findings were just an artefact. The benefit was fake.

This one suggests that among children and adolescents with overweight/obesity, those born small for gestational age are more likely to possess cardiometabolic risk factors compared to their counterparts born appropriate for gestational age.
- Small for gestational age in children and adolescents with overweight or obesity was associated with cardiometabolic risk factors, including increased odds for hypertensive blood pressure, elevated HbA1c, elevated ALT, and low HDL.
- On the contrary, large for gestational age was associated with lower odds for hypertensive blood pressure, elevated HbA1c, and elevated ALT.
