Ketogenic diet as an adjunct therapy in college students with major depressive disorder
Ketogenic intervention linked to large mood and metabolic improvements
This Ohio State University pilot study tested a 10–12 week well-formulated ketogenic diet (WFKD) as an adjunct therapy for 24 college students with diagnosed major depressive disorder (MDD) already receiving counseling or medication. Sixteen participants completed the program and maintained nutritional ketosis 73% of the time. Depressive symptoms dropped by roughly 70% on both the PHQ-9 and Hamilton scales, with improvements emerging within two to six weeks and sustained through the study. Participants also showed nearly tripled well-being scores, reduced body and fat mass, higher

Undisclosed financial conflicts of interest in DSM-5-TR
Financial ties remain widespread among authors of psychiatry’s most influential diagnostic manual
This 2023 BMJ study examined financial conflicts of interest among U.S. physicians who served on panels and task forces for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-5-TR). Of 92 eligible members, 60% received payments from the pharmaceutical or medical device industries between 2016 and 2019, totaling more than $14 million. The most common payments were for research, consulting, and speaking engagements—particularly among panels tied to drug-treated disorders. The authors argue that such pervasive industry relationships undermine trust and call for stricter prohibitions on financial conflicts in future DSM revisions.

Are Major Medical Organizations Politically Partisan?
Dr. Ben Knudsen and colleagues describe their analysis of policy statements from US professional medical associations
Researchers analyzed 1,592 policy statements from six leading U.S. medical associations using ChatGPT-4 to classify political leanings. They found that 33% of statements reflected a political stance, with 97.5% leaning liberal and only 2.5% conservative—about 40 times more liberal than conservative. Liberal-leaning examples included advocacy for climate action, gun control, racial equity, and gender-affirming care, while the few conservative examples focused on tort reform or reducing regulatory burdens. Non-political statements, by contrast, typically addressed clinical guidance or workforce issues. While medical societies present themselves as nonpartisan, the findings raise questions about bias, its effect on public trust, and the exclusion of potentially valuable conservative policy ideas. The study doesn’t judge whether positions are evidence-based but highlights a strong tilt toward liberal values in professional medical statements.

The strength of Coach Glassman’s new definition of health lies in its ability to give us a clear, practical way to assess and measure fitness, health, and even quality of life over time. At its simplest, fitness is the capacity to handle the demands of life. Those demands always involve moving your own body and moving external loads, which can be measured through the fundamental units of force, time, and distance.

P-curve works in practice
But would it work if you dropped a piano on it?
A p-curve is a statistical tool that examines the distribution of significant p-values across studies to detect whether findings are likely genuine or the result of selective reporting. This article addresses critiques of the tool—such as violations of monotonicity and sensitivity to borderline p-values. Uri Simonsohn argues that these issues mainly occur in contrived, unrealistic scenarios rather than real-world research settings. He likens the critique to testing cars by dropping pianos on them—technically revealing but irrelevant for everyday use. His simulations and examples suggest that while p-curve is not perfect, it remains a robust and practical method, certainly preferable to assuming no selective reporting at all.
