Mashup Score: 3No persistent cough in four out of five with Tuberculosis - 1 month(s) ago
More than 80% of patients with tuberculosis, the world’s most deadly infection, do not have a persistent cough, despite this being seen as a key symptom of the disease. The infection is predominantly transmitted by coughing, but probably also through simply breathing. Research, led by Amsterdam UMC and the Amsterdam Institute for Global Heath and Development, analysed data on more than 600,000 individuals in Africa and Asia and found that 82.8% of those with tuberculosis had no persistent cough and 62.5% had no cough at all. These results are published today in the Lancet Infectious Diseases.

Mashup Score: 2Artificial intelligence helps predict whether antidepressants will work in patients - 3 month(s) ago
In patients with major depression disorder it is, thanks to use of artificial intelligence, now possible to predict within a week whether an antidepressant will work. By inputting a brain scan and an individual’s clinical information into an AI algorithm, researchers from Amsterdam UMC and Radboudumc could see up to 8 weeks faster whether or not the medication would work. The results of this study are published today in the American Journal of Psychiatry.

Here is an example of bad science reporting. The Amsterdam UMC comes out with a news release about an important scientific finding, but there is no date assigned to the press release and they don't link to the original study. Why would you do that? https://t.co/3IIEhalBZ3

Inducing labour, in a low-risk pregnancy, can have long-term consequences on the child’s cognitive development. Research from the Amsterdam UMC shows this based on pregnancy data and school performance at age 12 of 226,684 Dutch children.
