Sensible Medicine

JUNE 28, 2023

Why most medical research is likely (still) waste, and less research funding may be one way forward

Sensible Medicine

FEBRUARY 20, 2025

As always, we are happy to feature articles that expand on ideas discussed on Sensible Medicine – even when the author agrees more with Dr. Prasad than with me. Back then a statistics professor and one of the forefathers of EBM, Doug Altman published a BMJ article titled “The scandal of poor medical research.”

So I buried my head in the sand until an article of the February 2 nd WSJ -- Who’s Afraid of Early Cancer Detection? -- made me commit to learning about the test. Today and next week I will post articles about Galleri. This was the validation article in a series of diagnostic test articles.

"Can you tweet my paper" vs. "Here are some edits, no need to add me"

Sensible Medicine

JANUARY 31, 2024

Recently, I came across a tweet that lavished praise on an unremarkable article. The article contained, as my friend Bapu Jena likes to say, no new ideas. They are the “can you tweet my article” people. It merely restated things that had been said before. He took the help of a senior academic at his institution.
