"ds" is probably one of the most under-rated #Stata commands.

Another #pro #StataTip you probably didn't know: You can do a one-way tabulation with bar plots, and sort the data as well.

Here is a common problem with importing txt or xls data in #Stata (or other languages): One ends up with leading white spaces! Getting ridding of these is not so trivial. Why? Spaces are more than just a spacebar space. They also contain tabs, hidden characters, line breaks etc.

Coffee DAG.

Time to ask the question- are your observational studies PRINCIPLED? At Sentinel, we are setting the bar high for ourselves and hope the community will follow suit! Check out The BMJ describing our process

Here is our latest Eligibility criteria. We have recently opened recruitment to Spevigo (spesolimab) and small molecule Sotyktu (deucravacitinib)

Fixing some #Stata #reshape code, and a reminder that you can use irregular variable names to still reshape using the "@" symbol.

All models are wrong and yours are useless! In case you missed my talk yesterday on how to make clinical prediction tools useful for patients, you can read all about it here. Enjoy! doi.org/10.1038/s41698…

#Stata #sankey has been bumped to v1.73 with one major requested change: - Ability to control drawing order of nodes through value labels. Flows can still be sorted through sort1() & sort2(). - Additional errors checks added. More info on GitHub: github.com/asjadnaqvi/sta…

Looking forward to @HealthySkin4All #BAD2024 next week here in Manchester! I will be speaking at the Hot Topics in Hall 2.1 on Tuesday 2nd July on how to ask a research question in BADBIR along with Oras Alabas and Shehnaz Ahmed

We are at the @HealthySkin4All conference next week (July 2nd- July 4th)! You can find us at stand PSG 6. We have a few goodies on our stall for you! We look forward to meeting you all #BAD2024

Remember to check out key medical dermatology talks in Exchange Auditorium on Wednesday 3rd July 09:00 Duc Binh Phan - biosimilars in BADBIR #psoriasis 09:35 Helen Alexander - treatment effectiveness #eczema from A-STAR register 11:15 Oras Alabas - skin cancer risk BADBIR

I am honoured to share the stage with Zenas Yiu and Oras Alabas and will cover the process of accessing data from one of the richest data sources on #psoriasis. So do come along and find out!

I’m delighted to present my work on the “Risk of keratinocyte carcinomas in psoriasis patients treated with biologic therapy: analysis from BADBIR” as an oral presentation on Wednesday 3rd July at 11.15 Plenary session at the BAD annual meeting. So please join us!

I’m delighted to present my work at the BAD. Using data of more than 15,000 patients we showed there is no increased risk of the development of keratinocyte carcinomas in psoriasis patients receiving biologic therapy compared to those on non-biologic systemic therapy.

All aboard
