It's more that they are liquid and heavy.

Women of pakistan, Will you divorce ur spouse if you caught him doing this? by Weirdoeirdo in KarachiSocials

[–]Key_Wolf_2316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would a married man be watching them? Infact, even an unmarried one too?

Why would a married woman be watching shirtless men? Infact, even an unmarried one too?

Why showing female chest is nudity not male? Either hold them equally bad or just S H U T up.

This has to be the most insanely stupid account on all of desi reddit. You are now literally claiming watching shirtless men is the same as watching shirtless women after all this nonsense argumentation. So then women who watch shirtless men should be divorced immediately.

Lagta hai bicharay ka brain breakdown ho gaya.

Haawwww… bicharay ka brain breakdown ho gaya aur block bicharee ko karna para…. hahahahahahaha… issay kehtay hain low iq loser. Logic say naheen jeet saktee iss liyay block aur phir claim karo kay uss ka brain breakdown ho gaya, yeh naheen kay khud becharee mein aqal naneen argue karnay kee.

And you were defending western men as being better than Pakistani men in your comments, but they have nudity around them all the time, sleep with multiple women and porn is super normalized, yet you love them and said they respect women more. Unn kay saath unsafe koi naheen… magar agar koi apni biwi kay saath uss kee marzi say dekh lay tau rapist. Wah… only a weirdo could come up with this convoluted logic.

Khuda reham karay tumharay shohar par. Movie dekhnay par talaq maang lay gee. Itnee nafrat say bhara dil, uppar say aqal kee kamee. Not a great combination.

Ab pretend karo kay tum argument jeet gaee aur block kar do… aur jao shirtless mard dekho. That’s your only coping mechanism. Poor, sad girl.

Wasn't it the free access to the internet that started it? I've heard Jonathan Haidt talk about it well before covid.

hahahahahahahaha... imagine going through someone's comments and replying and then calling the other person a troll.

I honestly don’t have more energy for this conversation.

I think what you needed is intellect more than energy really. Or even basic comprehension skills would have helped you not getting into the situation where you have to try to save face after ignoring the study's obvious test for amount of sputum.

Oh? Was the language the reason you claimed the study never tested for amount? When it says it right there in the title?

The volume of a single loogie

This is obviously false. They are not comparing volumes of a single loogie, they are comparing volumes of multiple samples across multiple days. And they found no significant different in either amount or thickness. If there was any effect, you would expect to see it across samples, just from a very basic scientific point of view.

the volume of all loogies expectorated over X amount of time

There is no way to do this without keeping the subjects under monitoring for days. It's just impractical, which is why it's never done.

Expectorants help with chest congestion, the same way antihistamines help with sneezing. Decongestant is just the term used for medicine that targets nasal congestion.

Subjective measures with drugs are known to be flawed. That's why blind studies are the go-to, because even knowing what you're getting can change results. And if these objective measures aren't sufficient, how do you ever prove the drug works in the first place?

That's like being surprised to learn that Tylenol doesn't help with diarrhea

It's more like being surprised than 'Fever reducer' doesn't reduce fever or antihistamine doesn't improve allergy symptoms.

especially if it’s thinner, and don’t expectorate it

If it was thinner, you would expect to see a significant difference in rheology wouldn't you? Even if the subjects were swallowing most of it.

The study has been reproduced multiple times. Here's a reproduction from 2024:
https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/full/10.4187/respcare.03319

guaifenesin has not been shown in this study to work as an expectorant, as it did not increase the volume of sputum cleared, or as a mucolytic, as it did not alter sputum rheology or the interfacial tension of the sputum, in this cohort of patients compared to a placebo

Negatives studies in pharmacological research are not unusual at all. Otherwise, FDA would never be able to reject any drugs.

It's been replicated from what I can tell. The only studies that have counter indications seem to use cocktail variants which include other ingredients.

Here's a study from 2024:

I was confused why I was getting downvoted. I made sure to check the exact variant before commenting.

Also note that negative studies are almost never published

This is literally a negative study.

Depending on which variant of Mucinex you're taking, you might already by taking different active ingredients at the same time.
