Check our new SLR on iCBT for AUD in @JSATjournal πŸŽ‰ We found it's non-inferior to TAU. Around since the 90s, but iCBT is now more accessible and convenient than ever! @Heringerdaniel_ @FernandaGushken @Gabriel_PACosta! #iCBT #AUD #healthaccess

From @CBCNews, "A Hunger Games" for doctors in πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦. 6.5M lack primary care. Rural worst. Aging patients, πŸ“‰ family doctors & πŸ“ˆ doctor burnout breaking the system. πŸ“ˆ foreign doctors not enough. As a πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦, this is πŸ’” to watch from far. #CanadianHealthcare

Great tribute in @nytimes to the visionary David Lynch. Watched 'Dune' with my wife last night - still great. A true original; one of one. RIP. #DavidLynch #Dune

US drug OD deaths πŸ“‰ 4% from 2022 to 2023. Deaths πŸ“‰for ages 15-54 and Whites. Synthetic opioid deaths also fell. But, deaths πŸ“ˆ for ages 55+, Black & Native Hawaiian individuals, and psychostimulant deaths πŸ“ˆ. More work still. @CDCgov @HarmReduction

Concerning findings published in @WPA_Psychiatry. Antipsychotics pose significant heart and metabolic risks in children, especially in younger kids and when used longer. We need to use alternative treatment options. #ChildPsych #OffLabelPrescribing

"I was in a pathetic losing battle with my desires run amok..." Powerful essay by @owenflanagan in @washingtonpost. The diabetes analogy for addiction is spot-on - I'll use that with patients. Thank you. #AddictionAwareness

He has a point. DTC drug ads raise awareness but they're too prevalent, poorly regulated, and often biased. Pharma companies highlight benefits, downplay risks. FDA oversight is inconsistent. We get skewed info on prescription meds. #BigPharma via @thr

As a dad, I found this #Jama article fantastic. It highlights how pregnancy transforms fathers' brains. These changes enhance areas linked to emotion, social understanding, and caregiving. Definitely worth a read!

Must read. Limiting sugar the first 1000 days of life may significantly reduce the risk and delay the onset of type 2 diabetes and hypertension. These findings could influence dietary guidelines and public health policies for early childhood nutrition:
