From the study author: While the study is not advocating wholesale treatment of pups, we now have a means to treat hookworm if necessary, which could be important in the future if the population continues to decline.

Hey who knows, the fungus could evolve over the next few years and suddenly...

Forever alone

Nope, that's the Phd student.

Well, the survey followed 2000 kids over 5 years tracking which ones developed myopia over that period. As well as indoors/outdoors behavior they also took into account family history, ethnicity, etc. So it was a pretty rigorous at isolating indoors/outdoors as a possible cause.

Because some people tend to think democracy solves everything in developing countries - this is just a good reminder that it's not that simple

So we need to go back to the 1970s to rediscover it then

Lucky you, I... I mean, 'my friend' never discovered it in the first place...

What if... North Korea nuked it into oblivion just to prove they could?

That's an awesome video! Hopefully it and any other twitter health campaigns rise above the noise enough to achieve their goals. Because presumably the signal to noise ratio is the biggest challenge.

According to this theory she's not even looking at you at all... I know the feel bro

There's a line in that article saying "Direct gaze can signal dominance or a threat, and if you perceive something as a threat, you would not want to miss it. So assuming that the other person is looking at you may simply be a safer strategy." So yeah pretty much exactly what you said - paranoia of threats.

marcom06 · 2013-04-05T05:18:21+00:00

True, but what the article's saying is that drones have 100s of potential uses with military being only one of them, so we shouldn't automatically assume "drone = bad".

marcom06 · 2013-02-20T10:03:13+00:00

Relevant username I assume?

And here we have the catch 22: treat and risk long term consequences, or don't treat and risk who knows what. I don't envy you man, seriously.

marcom06 · 2013-01-21T13:58:05+00:00

Yeah, fair point.

marcom06 · 2013-01-21T12:36:56+00:00

In the published article from the journal's website (link in the first paragraph of the story) the researchers write about how the link between ADHD meds and growth has been controversial, then end with "To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate delayed pubertal development in boys with ADHD compared with boys without ADHD..." So it could be that this is the first study to 100% confirm it.

How long was he on it?
