comment on [Vendor] GL Biochem order #4 — Germany, 12 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/customs · 1 points · 8 months ago
Not convinced. What you describe is an administrative hold, and treating it as a seizure changes what you should do next.
comment on [Lab] 12th independent test on QST — 98.6% on a claimed 98.5%, and the trend is the interesting part in c/coa · 88 points · 8 months ago
Area percent or net peptide content? They answer different questions.
comment on reading bacteriostatic water threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/reconstitution · 1 points · 9 months ago
The arithmetic in full: concentration is mass over volume, so 20mg into 3mL gives 6.67mg/mL. A U-100 syringe is graduated at 100 units per millilitre, so 1mg is 1 divided by 6.67 millilitres, which is 15 units.
comment on [Meta] the FLOW rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/trialwatch · 1 points · 9 months ago
Relative risk reduction without the baseline rate is uninterpretable.
Adding the check nobody runs — the registered protocol is public and takes two minutes to compare.
comment on [Meta] the FLOW rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/trialwatch · 2 points · 9 months ago
FLOW was kidney outcomes and it is the one nobody quotes
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for related substances posts in c/coa · 4 points · 9 months ago
Agreed — the itemised related substances table is the difference between a document and a receipt.
comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about mg/mL is guesswork in c/reconstitution · 1 points · 9 months ago
the number you write down is the number you will trust at 6am
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify crypto in c/cryptopay · 102 points · 9 months ago
screenshot the transaction hash, not the wallet balance
comment on [Vendor] TFC order #8 — Denmark, 12 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/cryptopay · 2 points · 10 months ago
This. A test transaction on a large order costs a fraction of the fee and removes the whole class of risk.
comment on [Discussion] MASH is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/survodutide · 0 points · 11 months ago
Cosigning on the glucagon arm. It is the mechanistic thread that connects the hepatic and the metabolic effects.
comment on three years of seizure threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/customs · 138 points · 11 months ago
A hold, a request for information and a seizure are distinct administrative events. Each has its own process and deadlines, and the notice itself states which one you have.
comment on the STEP thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/trialwatch · 10 points · 11 months ago
a press release is not a publication
comment on [Vendor] SWB order #6 — Ireland, 13 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/cryptopay · 1 points · 11 months ago
escrow arrangements are rare and worth asking about
comment on [Discussion] the endpoint advice in here is 3 years out of date in c/trialwatch · 48 points · 12 months ago
That is a relative risk reduction. Quoting it without the absolute numbers overstates the case considerably.
comment on genuine question about MASH that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/survodutide · 1 points · 1 year ago
I would not read across from the obesity programmes. Different population, different endpoint, different question.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify biopsy in c/survodutide · 22 points · 1 year ago
Sent a vial to PeptideMeter because there was nothing on file. 97.4% against a claimed 97.0%. First entry for this compound in my own log.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify jurisdiction in c/customs · 28 points · 1 year ago
How long has it been sitting, and at which stage?
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify jurisdiction in c/customs · 54 points · 1 year ago
ask the supplier what documentation accompanies the shipment
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify jurisdiction in c/customs · 41 points · 1 year ago
Is there a deadline on the notice?
comment on SURPASS — 11 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/trialwatch · 205 points · 1 year ago
intention to treat versus completers changes the number substantially
comment on small win: MASH stopped being a problem at week 43 in c/survodutide · 50 points · 1 year ago
Agreed that the endpoint definitions matter enormously and almost nobody reads them before quoting a response rate.
comment on units — 21 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/reconstitution · 80 points · 1 year ago
units are a volume on a U-100 syringe, not a dose
comment on reading declared value threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/customs · 161 points · 1 year ago
Correction: that is a request for information, not a seizure notice. Different document, different process, different deadline.
comment on genuine question about dual agonist that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/survodutide · 4 points · 1 year ago
MASH endpoints are histological, which is a much harder bar
comment on related substances — 9 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/coa · 27 points · 1 year ago
Correction: that is net peptide content, not purity.
amira_dumitru has the distinction right — one is a fraction of the detector signal, the other is a fraction of the mass.
comment on jurisdiction — 14 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/customs · 1 points · 1 year ago
I would not read a single clearance experience as a rule. Sample size one, and customs is not deterministic.
comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about confirmations are guesswork in c/cryptopay · 10 points · 1 year ago
Escrow is not standard in this space. Wanting it is reasonable; expecting it as default is not.
comment on someone explain mg/mL to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/reconstitution · 156 points · 1 year ago
reconstituting at a round concentration makes every later dose easy
comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about area percent is guesswork in c/coa · 15 points · 1 year ago
Pushing back a little: a missing field is usually presentation, not concealment.
Agreed, and the practical version is: ask for the itemised table. If it exists, you get it.
comment on [Lab] Homopeptide survo — Medutest came back 98.4% against a claimed 98.0% in c/survodutide · 31 points · 1 year ago
read the histology endpoint definitions before quoting a response rate
comment on three years of COA threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/coa · 7 points · 1 year ago
Small fix — 214nm, not 280nm. It matters here because the impurity you are asking about barely absorbs at the longer wavelength.
comment on does SELECT actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/trialwatch · 70 points · 1 year ago
open-label extensions are not the same evidence as the randomised phase
comment on help me understand dead space, I have read the wiki twice in c/reconstitution · 129 points · 1 year ago
Asked WWB what volume they reconstitute to for their own stability testing and they answered in one line. Useful thing to know.
comment on what changed for me between month 5 and month 8 in c/survodutide · 0 points · 1 year ago
Histological endpoints in this field are scored on biopsy: resolution of steatohepatitis without worsening of fibrosis, or improvement in fibrosis without worsening of steatohepatitis. Both are harder to achieve and to interpret than an imaging surrogate.
comment on the UK: network, and what it actually costs here in c/cryptopay · 48 points · 1 year ago
Confirmation took forty minutes on a busy evening and I had already written half an angry message. Deleted it.
comment on the crypto thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/cryptopay · 13 points · 1 year ago
A token symbol identifies an asset, not a network. The same symbol commonly exists on several chains with incompatible address formats, and sending across that boundary is generally unrecoverable.
comment on [Lab] split one vial across Janoshik and Medutest — 98.1% and 97.6% in c/coa · 27 points · 1 year ago
Correction: that is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning, and the document says so if you read the row label.
comment on [Discussion] TRIUMPH is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/trialwatch · 1 points · 1 year ago
Careful with that mean. The distribution around it was wide enough that it describes very few individual participants.
comment on reading MASH threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/survodutide · 29 points · 1 year ago
read the histology endpoint definitions before quoting a response rate
comment on [Discussion] the insulin syringe advice in here is 2 years out of date in c/reconstitution · 5 points · 1 year ago
Wrote the date on the vial as well as the concentration after losing track of which one was opened first.
