Mashup Score: 18Hitting Children in School: Bad? | Science-Based Medicine - 7 month(s) ago
The title of this post is silly. Hitting kids in school is always bad, and there is very good reason to expect the same negative outcomes from school-based corporal punishment as are seen when kids are hit at home. The AAP recently recently released a policy statement calling for a national ban.

Mashup Score: 0Science-Based Satire: 8th Edition of the Neonatal Resuscitation Program to Address Tongue-Tie | Science-Based Medicine - 7 month(s) ago
Is the NRP really updating its guidelines to include assessment and management of tongue-tie during newborn resuscitation? Should babies maintain skin-to-skin contact with their mother while receiving chest compressions? No. None of this is even remotely true.

Mashup Score: 3A Woman Dies from a Severe Allergic Reaction After Live Bee Acupuncture Session | Science-Based Medicine - 8 month(s) ago
A woman in Spain has died from a severe allergic reaction after a session of live bee acupuncture. With low plausibility, the potential for fatal outcomes, no evidence to suggest that benefits outweigh even minor side effects, and lots of dead bees, this is an intervention that should be avoided.

Kratom is an emerging herbal drug used for pain and fatigue but also has abuse potential. What is the current state of the science?
