Oh look. The RECOVERY preprint is out
I am glad I was a staunch advocate we adopt this asap as it was not a typical & #39;medicine by PR& #39; because the manuscript is sound.
End of story.

Here is how i knew this was not a typical medicine by press release
Because, I am a student and critic of & #39;medicine by press release& #39; https://twitter.com/VPrasadMDMPH/status/1273028969718337536?s=20">https://twitter.com/VPrasadMD...

5 days ago, I doubled down on that thread, and highlighted more reasons why we should adopted this immediately https://twitter.com/VPrasadMDMPH/status/1273319792951214080?s=20">https://twitter.com/VPrasadMD...
I showed it as a Pascal& #39;s wager https://twitter.com/VPrasadMDMPH/status/1273727674670657537?s=20">https://twitter.com/VPrasadMD...

And now, I have read the paper in its entirety, and I find nothing problematic
And I doubt anyone else will find any red flag.
It will later be published in a journal. NEJM or Lancet is my guess.
If you delayed, you made a bad a call.
Not only in retrospect, but at the time

Not only in retrospect, but at the time
the calculus was clear to adopt
respected investigators
could read protocol
low cost
low potential for rare AE
no FCOI
clear pre-specified subgroups in protocol
large and convincing effect size on
endpoint that matters

For the folks who were reluctant due to Surgisphere.
That was literally a form of & #39;last case& #39; bias that so often plagues surgeons and leads to bad decision making
It was also an irrational take home lesson as surgisphere CLEARED & not CAUGHT by peer review, lets not forget

My take home message is we have a critical appraisal crisis in medicine
When errors occur
9/10 the error is accepting a result that is problematic
1/10 (as here) it is unfair cynicism
Both are bad & deadly.
If we teach better, we can improve both
That means less Kreb cycle
