The @recovery_rs trial aims to compare three methods of providing respiratory support to patients with severe symptoms of #COVID19. We urgently need more sites to take part, your Local Clinical Research Network can support with set up and trial delivery bit.ly/2M556ta
Very important news from #RECOVERY trial of interventions for #COVID19. Dexamethasone reduces mortality in ventilated pts and those on O2. Great work by UK research team #NIHR
The NIHR-supported RECOVERY trial has shown that dexamethasone, a steroid, significantly reduces the risk of dying from #COVID19 for seriously ill patients requiring respiratory intervention - a major breakthrough bit.ly/3ddeXsk

So unacceptable! Besides retraction, how are these misconducts punished (legally)? – at Sao Paulo, Brazil
New blogpost:
The Octopaper 🐙
Eight papers with the same survival curves, table values, and similar line graphs. But published in different journals by different authors, at different institutes, on different patients, and different cancers.

1/Hard day.
I´ve seen many eligible patients to Coalition I study (*mild*covid19) but patients kept telling me the same thing: "I wanna recover fast Doc. I don´t want the risk of not getting HCQ & Azythro"
Since when we know that HCQ & Azythro will make covid19 pts heal faster?
RCTs in #covid19 times. The coordinator center (IP-HCOR) is going out to the field to help centers w pt recruitment, consent, randomization & data collection
Spent the afternoon screening, recruiting & collecting consent from mild #covid19 research subjects

All patients with #IPF should immediately self-isolate. This advice was shared with @ILFA_Ireland today from respiratory consultants to ensure your safety as a vulnerable patient with a serious underlying respiratory condition. Follow @HSELive @roinnslainte advice to stay safe.
Nintedanib (antifibrotic shown originally to work in IPF) now approved for non-IPF fibrosing ILD in USA. Not yet approved in UK. For Rheumatoid Arthritis assoc ILD the #TRAIL1 RCT of pirfenidone is running at 11 UK sites with 6 due soon ralung.org @RheumatologyUK

We are delighted with the significance of this research and what it means for patients. Finding 3 new genes linked to IPF should drive treatments for the future. Well done everyone involved in this work @IPFdoc @LouiseVwain @rjallen513
Our IPF genome-wide analysis (identifying three novel IPF risk signals) is now available online in fully published version (previously available as in press).

I am looking forward to visiting Leicester this week to celebrate 20 years of the Lung Health Institute. Colleagues in Leicester have made a huge contribution to respiratory research into the UK over that time
I'll be talking about the #microbiome in #bronchiectasis and #COPD .
The Institute for Lung Health in Leicester is celebrating 20 years! Follow this account 12-14 Feb and use #ILH20 for live tweets and highlights about the latest in #respiratory #research from our scientific meeting.
