  1. Many study (+ 10 000) were funded by the industry on Alcohol Is Good for Your Heart -- Most of the Time (time.com) · · Score: 1

    I have read in Science & vie, a french science magazine, that many studies are sponsored by the booze industry itself. So this idea of 'one glass of wine each day is good for you' is probably false unfortunately. Bias are introduced by putting together in the non-drinker group ex heavy drinker that have quit. That way, non-drinker do not stand out as much.

  2. Re: Overly broad? on Soda Pop Damages Your Cells' Telomeres · · Score: 1

    I think you are missing the point about the nocivity of the high fructose/glucose sugar : the differene with traditional sugar is that you can have 20 onces pop without nausea. Even wrose, it does not affect your appetite.

  3. Re:Here in The Netherlands... on Electronic Medical Records, the Story So Far · · Score: 1

    Hi, I happen to work on the EPD in Canada. The legislator here was very concerned about privacy so you can opt out or ask to hide part of you medical records. We have put in place an alert system that get trigger when a doctor looks at a file of a patient that he have not treated. I supposed that those mesures can be hijack but paper file are far from perfect.
