This is why the work of the African Perioperative Research Group #APORG is so important.

It bears repeating. No, taking Tylenol during pregnancy does not cause autism. One study found a correlation, not a causation. Other research has found no clear link. Acetaminophen is one of the few safe options for pain relief during pregnancy. 👉 scienceupfirst.com/science-101/...

An excellent read.

9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American." It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...

Surgical health policy 2025–35 www.thelancet.com/journals/lan... After Lancet Commission #GlobalSurgery. Messages 1. Unmet surgical need is rising 2. Postop deaths > major global disease burdens 3. Surgery strengthens health systems 4. Surgery expansion=economic benefit 5. Preparedness is lagging

I urge everyone to read Unbreaking’s new page on everything the govt is doing to destroy & diminish medical research funding. It’s the best thing I’ve read on this topic: @lizneeley.bsky.social & co have such done an incredible job. unbreaking.org/issues/medic...

Guten Abend #MedSky #SurgSky 🌍✂️🩺! We’re excited to kick off our very first social media campaign—starting on #GlobalSurgeryDay, May 25th! 🎙️ Let's share our #GlobalSurgery stories. Use #TellYourGSStory and join us in amplifying voices in #GlobalHealth and #GlobalSurgery.

www.moralambition.org/book What a wonderful book. "Moral Ambition" by @rutgerbregman.com. This takes @michaelmarmot.bsky.social "The Health Gap" clarion call of 2015, and provides the tools to respond. And at the end provides a real surprise resource. A must read for achieving health equity.

I've updated this list of great books on global health! New authors include: @adamjkucharski.bsky.social @rutgerbregman.com @carolinelenette.bsky.social @totomcgee.bsky.social Thomas Homer-Dixon, Don McNeil, Raina MacIntyre, @murray-journo.bsky.social communities.springernature.com/posts/if-you...

Preprint of the #APORG #ACIOS paper under review. Pain in Africa: prevalence of severe pain and association with critical illness and mortality. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Before you submit your peer review comments, please take one final look and ask: If I was the author… Would I find the review constructive? Would I find the tone respectful? Remember, we are both reviewers and authors! 🙏🏽

A "blatant political intimidation of our medical journals" New chilling letter not the first attempt by Trumpsters to denigrate and discredit medical journals as "woke" or corrupt or phoney: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/h...

💻 Join our Editor-in-Chief, Richard Horton, in a @researcheracad.bsky.social webinar on April 24. The webinar will address skills & frameworks to present evidence clearly, including how to discuss funding sources, review status & scientific uncertainty. bit.ly/42mgqsX @senseaboutsci.bsky.social

#Prehabilitation to enhance pre-op functional capacity can be performed at home or in hospital. Home-based prehabilitation is less resource-intensive and reduces hospital length of stay, #depression and #anxiety www.bjanaesthesia.org/article/S000...

One of the best decisions I made in my academic career: create a dedicated teaching website: ~20 years of course materials, handouts, tip sheets, videos & more! FREE to use for teaching with credit! www.teachepi.org

My new book 🍎 looks at what makes us sick or die too soon based on public health data- I look at what we know about diet, exercise, depression, accessing preventive & curative care & more. Available now for pre-order for a summer read or gift: www.penguin.co.uk/books/458539...

I've updated this list of terrific global health books! New books by @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social, @adamjkucharski.bsky.social, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social, @carlzimmer.com & Bill Foege are included communities.springernature.com/posts/if-you...

This call is spot on. NCDs in Africa are the main indication for adult surgery (42%) & hospital admission (47%) & majority of in-hospital critical illness (53.7%). #APORG Scaling up clinical research capacity in Africa requires more non-communicable disease studies www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Call for Nominations: The 2025 Paul Farmer Lectureship and Award for Global Health Equity @mcgill.ca www.mcgill.ca/spgh/about-u...

Super interesting paper on causes of maternal deaths. Conclusions for Africa are entirely consistent with the work by the African Perioperative Research Group #APORG. Access to quality care to manage PPH is vital for maternal health in Africa.

In its 80 year history, the UN has been exclusively ruled by men A growing movement is calling for a woman UNSG to help bring about reform and strengthen #globalhealth My new piece in @bmj.com

Appointment of the new Nuffield Professor of Anaesthetic Science www.ndcn.ox.ac.uk/news/appoint... Thank you for believing in me. It will be an honour to serve you, and further the work we believe in together.

A new review published by @oxprimarycare.bsky.social and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine has found little evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of physician associates (PAs) and anaesthetists associates (AAs) in the UK:
