1/ Welcome to another edition of West’s Well-Being Wednesday! As a reminder, I’ll briefly highlight papers, topics, questions, etc. related to healthcare professional #wellbeing, with a new entry each week. #wellbeingwednesday #burnout #MedTwitter
2/ This week will be brief because the point is simple:

BURNOUT

IS NOT

DEPRESSION
4/ There is overlap, but #depression and #burnout are absolutely not the same thing.
5/ That’s it. That’s the #tweetorial for today. See you all next week! /fin

2/ This week we’ll touch on the association of racial bias and burnout, prompted by @FutureDocs thread last week reflecting on #DrSusanMoore and so many other victims of systematic disparities and racism.
3/ As a biostatistician, I think it’s interesting that in statistics “bias” is defined as a systematic error or deviation from the truth. This is worth reflecting upon as we debate whether racism and other biases are inherent in our systems – by definition, bias is systematic!

1/34 Okay #medtwitter #epitwitter , read on for an #EBM #Tweetorial on p-values, with specific attention to the implications of the recent remdesivir trial with p=0.059 for mortality (full report still not published, which is not ideal …).
2/ This is a follow-up to my prior #EBM #Tweetorial on diagnostic test performance study design
3/ Again, who am I to do this? My PhD is in #biostatistics, I direct the @MayoClinicSOM #EBM curriculum, and I teach Bayesian Diagnostic Testing Strategies @MayoGradSchool @MayoClinic @MayoMedEd @MayoFacDev.

1/32 Okay #medtwitter #epitwitter , as promised here’s a #Tweetorial on diagnostic test performance study design. Who am I to do this? My PhD is in #biostatistics, I direct the @MayoClinicSOM #EBM curriculum, and I teach Bayesian Diagnostic Testing Strategies @MayoGradSchool.
2/ Yep, this is a little wonkish but really not so complicated. And anyway, when I hear “wonkish” I hear:
3/ BLUF: To date, how many studies of #COVID19 diagnostic tests have been conducted ideally, with fully appropriate measures to minimize risk of bias?

1/ Several provocative papers were published on #burnout last week in @JAMA_current. I have some thoughts on both the papers and the field. I hope these might stimulate further informed discussion. I will take part in that to the extent time permits, but I do have a day job. 😀
2/ First up, the systematic review by @LisaRotenstein @srijan_sen_lab @DouglasMataMD and others. Hearty congratulations for such a visible publication based on an immense amount of work! #burnout @JAMA_current jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
3/ Key findings include: “marked variation in burnout definitions, assessment methods, and study quality” which “preclude definitive conclusions about the prevalence of burnout”.
