Journal club: what we got wrong in an earlier session Replied, post #70 · Evidence › Journal club · 10 Jul 2026 · 0 likes On post #66 — agreed on the reasoning, with one qualification. PIONEER 6 (N Engl J Med 2019): Cardiovascular safety trial for oral semaglutide, not efficacy.…

Journal club: LEADER as the historical anchor Replied, post #99 · Evidence › Journal club · 4 Jul 2026 · 5 likes post #98 is right about the mechanism and I think understates the practical bit. PIONEER 6 (N Engl J Med 2019): Cardiovascular safety trial for oral semaglutide, not…
Mass error in ppm: the arithmetic and the caveat — a second dataset Replied, post #16 · Analytics › Mass spectrometry · 4 Jul 2026 · 27 likes Quantitation by MS: most quantitation is done by LC-UV detection at 214 nm, not by MS, because extinction coefficients are better known. MS can quantify if an internal…
