Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles. The claim: integration matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides…

comment on my A1c moved and I cannot work out whether ice pack is why in c/coldchain · 20 points · 1 months ago
The evidence standard in c/vendorvetting gets called too strict about once a month, and every time, the thread ends with the complainant agreeing.
comment on the glucagon question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/retatrutide · 1 points · 1 months ago
Not to be pedantic but TRIUMPH and phase 2 are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on someone explain cold chain to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/coldchain · 143 points · 1 months ago
time-at-temperature integral is the dose, not just peak temperature
comment on the water content question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/coa · 259 points · 1 months ago
Small correction: the trial was 9 weeks, not 15. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
comment on what would you tell week-1 you about fatigue in c/sideeffects · 4 points · 2 months ago
Same experience. Week 54 and it simply stopped. I know that is not useful information but it is what happened.
comment on is it normal to get the food-noise thing at week 40 in c/coa · 23 points · 2 months ago
Mechanistically the bit that matters is batch.
Disagree on that part. 93.7% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 31 weeks to accept.

Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
Week 57 update. 43kg down from the start, reflux basically gone since about week 14. Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I want to.…
comment on phase 2 — my 13-week log, condensed into one table in c/retatrutide · 288 points · 2 months ago
Mechanistically the bit that matters is TRIUMPH. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.
comment on unpopular opinion: method development is massively overrated in c/hplc · 337 points · 2 months ago
Gradient goblin mode: changed the solvent composition 20 times, finally got good resolution on a method development peak.

excursion claims need a logger trace or a photo at unboxing, not "it felt warm"
comment on help me understand glucagon, I have read the wiki twice in c/retatrutide · 59 points · 3 months ago
TRIUMPH phase 2 showed 98.0% weight loss but the the food-noise thing profile on the highest arm was rough. Phase 2 != phase 3.
comment on [Discussion] the incretin advice in here is 14 years out of date in c/glp1science · 16 points · 3 months ago
Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 10–5. Practical consequence: what you feel in week 1 is not what that dose does.
comment on am I the only one who found fatigue harder than the injections in c/sideeffects · 26 points · 3 months ago
Are you on a pen or research vial? The formulation changes the profile.
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for certificate of analysis posts in c/coa · 37 points · 3 months ago
redact your own name, not the vendor's batch details
Disagree on that part. 98.7% and 98.9% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [Meta] the dual agonist rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/survodutide · 15 points · 3 months ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.

rodent appetite tells you what to investigate, not what to expect in humans
comment on [Results] 12 weeks, 35kg, and glucagon was the hard part in c/retatrutide · 647 points · 3 months ago
retatrutide is not approved anywhere for human use, posts must not read as instructions
