It seems that every decade or so a “new” idea is touted and based on (sometimes, centuries) old theories and ideas as to the cause, course, and even “cure” for multiple sclerosis. There are bloggers who will comb through historic records to help prove/disprove current thoughts about how MS “works” and why we should/shouldn’t do-believe-follow-think one thing or another. I’m fine with all of that, save the “how to think” part! I’ll leave the heavy lifting to the researchers that my donations go to fund.

I guess that’s what happens when you get a bunch of people together who are mostly technologists, not statisticians or social scientists. This past week, MyType, a Facebook personality application that takes your data and then sells aggregated reports based upon your answers to their quiz, released a report about the iPad. They suggested that iPad owners and those looking to buy one were “selfish elites” while those who were iPad critics were characterized as “independent geeks.” You can already tell that this isn’t exactly going to be a scientific analysis, right?

Sullivan is known for a few things - president of Rockpointe, a medical education communications company; a founding member of the Association of Clinical Researchers and Educators, and his Policy and Medicine blog, where he rails against government oversight of the pharmaceutical industry. Besides being an avid defender of CME, he is also a vociferous critic of Chuck Grassley, the Senate Republican who is investigating various pharma issues, including CME. Over the past few days, however, Sullivan has been scrutinized himself. That’s because the Drug Industry Document Archive at the University of California at San Francisco released something Sullivan didn’t want made public - his funding from pharma. In a July 6, 2...

For those new to these pages, we take one post each month to check-in, check-up and try to avoid checking-out!  Many find this a chance to take stock and look back, from one month to the next, to see how their MS has progressed, remitted or held steady.

Relying on data from the Medco pharmacy benefits manager, the researchers analyzed trends in antidepressant use for three age groups - kids between 6 and 17 years old; adults aged 18 to 64, and those 65 and older. And they examined the usage over three time periods - May 1, 2002 to June 19, 2003, before any warnings were issued; June 20, 2003 to Oct. 15, 2004, when a warning was issued on Glaxo’s Paxil, and from Oct. 16, 2004 to Dec. 31, 2005, during which time Black Box warnings were issued and s...

In fact, they’ve already got a small version. Called the Drug Industry Document Archive, it houses reams of studies, government reports, company documents and news articles concerning Neurontin, which Warner-Lambert - later bought by Pfizer - was charged with marketing off-label. Based on their success in creating the Legacy Tobacco Documents Library, which has helped legislators, policy makers and consumer advocates probe the tobacco industry, the center now wants to expand the DIDA into a full-blown resource that has endless searchable documents about pharma.
