85% bias is crazyyy 😂

First sentence of the results section says:

“Of the 28 systematic reviews included, only 17.9% were rated as low risk of bias.”
Is this helpful to look at? Why was this even published? lol


Just from the introduction, it is suggesting that the meta analysis is focusing on false positives and improving early detection. It’s not about whether the screening itself is increasing risk.

This is one of my frustrations with the medical field. They begin addressing a problem with a presumption that a certain action is necessary and good (i.e. mammograms). For example, there has never been a long term placebo controlled double blind comparative study on any vaccine ever. And the reason they won’t do it is because they claim it would be unethical to withhold vaccines from the control group. But how is it unethical to withhold an unproven treatment? That means they start with the presumption that vaccines are safe and effective. A lot of what the medical industry does is pseudo science and it’s frustrating.

If you’re aware of any comparative studies regarding vaccines or mammograms please share them with me🫡
