Description

Trying to keep up with the medical literature but apparently JournalSpotting HQ has a team of actual beavers who chew and digest all the articles then present them in a light-hearted podcast. So why bother? In #33 Dr Barney Hirons and Dr Jon Hudson cover the latest and greatest in medical literature. Including: - What BP is optimum based on the latest meta-analysis? - What to give for generalised epilepsy - Valporate or Keppra? - How Mushrooms really could reduce the risk of cancer - Magic mushrooms vs Escitalopram in Depression - Sleep duration and Dementia risk - Teeth number and Dementia risk (?!) - Long COVID, and how it really sucks - Coffee habits from Mendelian Randomisation - Is weight gain after quitting smoking dangerous? - Burnout risk Along with some general geeky medic/pizza/rat chat!
