comment on [PSA] your bac water is fine, your fridge door is not in c/reconstitution · 15 points · 1 days ago
30mg vial, 2mL water, concentration is 30/2 — write it on the vial afterwards
comment on [Trial Data] STEP 1 vs SURMOUNT-1 side by side, with the caveats in c/trialwatch · 3 points · 4 days ago
No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.
comment on [Caution] CagriSema trial ratios are fixed-dose, do not extrapolate to self-mixing in c/cagrilintide · 69 points · 4 days ago
Crossposting this to c/labresults because the people who need it are not reading this community.
comment on [Lab] three BPC vials, three vendors, purity all over the place in c/bpc157 · 1 points · 4 days ago
Second this question. I have wondered about tendon for 24 months and never seen a straight answer.
comment on [Question] why is the sequence written four different ways across vendors in c/bpc157 · 4 points · 4 days 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.
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 48 weeks to accept.
comment on [Training] three full-body sessions a week through the whole cut in c/glp1muscle · 8 points · 5 days ago
Not to be pedantic but FFMI and protein are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
comment on [Question] eGFR dropped 8 points during rapid loss, should i worry in c/bloodwork · 14 points · 5 days ago
Baseline A1c: 98.3. Week 94: 98.0. Same lab, fasted, same time of day. Trend matters.
comment on A1c 9.1 → 5.4 over 14 months, full table inside in c/bloodwork · 1 points · 7 days ago
This is correct. ApoB is the better marker.
comment on why does everyone say week 4 is the wall in c/semaglutide · 17 points · 11 days ago
stalled at 10mg, went up, and regretted it, the stall would have broken anyway
comment on [Readout] REDEFINE 1 and what CagriSema actually adds over sema alone in c/trialwatch · 35 points · 12 days ago
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.
comment on [Question] A1c 5.6 but CGM says otherwise. which do i believe. in c/t2dglp1 · 7 points · 13 days ago
comment on [Lab] identity confirmed but net peptide content was 71% in c/bpc157 · 7 points · 15 days ago
BPC pentadecapeptide is a naming problem, three things are called this
comment on [Paper] ATTAIN-1 — an oral pill with no food restrictions is a bigger deal than the % suggests in c/trialwatch · 53 points · 15 days ago
Flair changed to match the content.
Adding to this: SURMOUNT is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on small win: pentadecapeptide stopped being a problem at week 15 in c/bpc157 · 2 points · 20 days ago
the sequence variation is the real issue
comment on bloodwork — my 22-week log, condensed into one table in c/bloodwork · 24 points · 25 days ago
My ALT went from 2 to 24 in 79 weeks. The ALT story shows up in the trend, not the single number.
comment on [PSA] A1c is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/t2dglp1 · 2 points · 1 months ago
Yeah, glycaemic control is the original use.
comment on why does nobody talk about hazard ratio in c/trialwatch · 6 points · 1 months ago
dropout handling matters, especially on GI-heavy populations
comment on is it normal to get constipation at week 44 in c/glp1aus · 3 points · 1 months ago
Yeah, the 2024 rule change was sudden.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify amylin in c/cagrilintide · 6 points · 1 months ago
amylin receptor distribution is different from GLP-1
comment on [Meta] the endpoint rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/trialwatch · 1 points · 1 months ago
give the trial name, phase, n, and primary endpoint in the body
