"we probably do not need to worry about the fact that the actual effect of one treatment rather than the other is not the same for all patients. Quite limited knowledge about an average improvement is the best that we can do" John Tukey, Controlled Clinical Trials, 1993 p282

Trump is fucking Ukraine. I’m ashamed to be represented by this regime. People fighting for their lives and country and this government sides with the aggressor. Sad.

These masked thugs belong in prison
If you are able to look at this and still not see the Gestapo. You have not only failed at the Christian you say you are.
You have failed at being a human.
You are the person who turned away when children were being murdered in gas chambers.
It didn’t start in gas chambers.

If you were concerned about teachers “grooming” kids by acknowledging the existence of LGBTQ people, but you’re fine with the GOP hiding the Epstein Files and a president whose name is all over them, you’ve acknowledged what the rest of us have always known….

Yes it is. Furthermore, it is a paradigm. And it has big big problems. Its adherents are insular and vulnerable to its weaknesses, like p-hacks.

![Criticism and pitfalls of EBM
EBMs have significant criticism and drawbacks. Critics have been cautioning about the outfalls of EBM since its inception. Interestingly, Alvan Feinstein, who was described in the history of EBM as one of the earliest pioneers of clinical epidemiology, criticized EBM more than two decades ago in the following words: "The laudable goal of making clinical decisions based on evidence can be impaired by the restricted quality and scope of what is collected as "best available evidence." However, the authoritative aura given to the collection may lead to significant abuses that produce inappropriate guidelines or doctrinaire dogmas for clinical practice [20]. He believed that the foundations of EBM are based on statistical values, and statistics textbooks overlook statistical heterogeneity [21].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:i5x3eb76crb4rousjkkk6i5l/bafkreidi7lhdxgtdxikr4cafcr3zmn6ssiamhuft7qnoan2eouwacrrnfy@jpeg)

That also means testing and or saying No to lots of 'initiatives' that are little better than wishful thinking. How long can one survive in a job doing that? Certainly not indefinitely!
The difficulty with evidence-based medicine is that you must value truth over wishful thinking.
This generally does not make you popular.
