      I'm confused. How is this consistent with the CIM? This is about fasting insulin. CIM is about the post prandial insulin surge following CHO meals, causing the internal starvation state that drives further intake - is it not?

      Am I missing something here or is this association *only* in people who had gotten bariatric surgery? If so, that should dramatically change the conclusions we can draw.pic.twitter.com/NtelyHPa9K

      Am I missing something here or is everyone jumping on these results w/out having considered the quality of a) the review & b) the data therein? How do we know we don’t have GIGO (no, not CICO)? A quick check: n=90 for main finding, Obs studies = Low/very low certainty likely

      They don't report registering it and I can't find it in PROSPERO by searching author names or title. Might've put it somewhere but if so it should be in the study!

          Of course, this contradicts their statement that they adhered to PRISMA reporting standards, but that's almost ubiquitous in SR/MAs sadly

          Wait, what! A study published in JAMA which requires authors to submit a completed checklist doesn’t actually adhere to said checklist?https://twitter.com/dnunan79/status/1357779845472808966 …
