Talk Evidence - Bones, nutrition, pain relief, and overdiagnosis.

Talk Evidence

In this month’s Talk evidence, we’re going back to our roots and avoiding covid - so sit back and listen to Helen Macdonald and Joe Ross discuss a new nutrition study to prevent fractures in older adults by eating dairy, and a meta-analysis which helps you choose pain relief medications for management of osteoarthritis. We’ll hear from Steven Woloshin about the virtual Overdiagnosis conference, and why he’s so excited about a new category in the National Library of Medicine. Finally, we have a study on urinary retention and risk of cancer that has been over 25 years in the making.
