After years of speculation, cryo electron microscopy confirms statins can interact with calcium regulatory proteins, partly attributable to cause of muscle pain than limits effective use. 🧪🫀 scitechdaily.com/why-do-stati...

What I find interesting was the pfe and post op levels, clearly showing the rise after procedure (not before), which means it could be iatrogenic.

Compare these a year apart. Note my issue is not that someone edited the photo to augment his frown line into a droop - it was the contrasting to stroke survivors. Fin.

Yeah if you can’t tell it has been enhanced, I’m not sure what else to say. This was from June, if I augment the face line - boom guess what, same same.

It is the Getty image, not the video I commented on. It is the intention of the image that is beneath journalistic integrity. You don't have to defend @atrupar.com - he is more than capable of reflection.

The image has been enhanced to accentuate the frown to a droop.
September 11, 2025 at 8:18 PM
Exactly

This is the original image, it is not indicating stroke or TIA, and the angle somewhat accentuates the right side of the frown on his face. It is misinformation. Blocking me on lists only reinforces that this wrong, and people are perpetuating what they despise on other social media. Just be better.

Here is the original photo that was manipulated, he is simply looking down and frowning slightly. The angle of the image modestly accentuates the right side of his face. It is NOT helpful, nor accurate to equate this with a stroke or TIA. It is misinformation, and journalists must do better.

On walking the picket line

The picket loop is 150 metres:

Each day:
30 loops/hour
2 hours/shift
25 persons
Collective distance:
150 x 30 x 2 x 25 = 225,000 metres = 225 kms

Seven days of picketing =
A collective distance of 1,575 kms!!!

Amen, even if in another province - solidarity from your DFA colleagues in New Brunswick- no medical school this week (bad start).
August 26, 2025 at 11:19 PM
Medical students should be learning today, in anatomy labs, getting curriculum maps, receiving lectures and engaging with Faculty. Next week ALL students will be as behind in ALL programs, engineering, law, biology, EVERYTHING!!!
Dalhousie is a Canadian U15 institution - an unprecedented lock out

Showing up in New Brunswick in solidarity with our DFA colleagues @dalfaculty.bsky.social to help #KeepDalStrong after we were locked out by @dalhousieu.bsky.social in a labour disruption. Our medical students were supposed to be learning anatomy this week, but are now a week behind
