  3. Much of the "I made more and an RN than an NP" talk is comparing apples to oranges: if you are working night/weekends/overtime as an RN and you make more than an NP working a 40 hour M-F work week...

    Seems? Did you read it or are you just making an evasive opinion? The article is based off a published study and has very interesting implications for the anti-vaccine movement as is shows the...

    The irony of discussing the Tuskagee trials related to the mistrust of vaccines while overlooking the forefather of the anti vaccine movement and the producer of the movie in question having his...

    Cyclical vomiting syndrome

    From my professional experience, CVS in children and CVS in adults are different, remember CVS is a constellation of disorders. I have never seen an adult patient with CVS that had onset in childhood....

    The truth is, safety is well established for both multi-dose and single dose, so debating the cost-effectiveness of each is a moot point, and can be continued in a new thread if you'd like to post...

    You weren't clear here: do you feel the study design is flawed or not? As far as your example, yes I agree there are limitations and that could in fact be one, but if so you would expect that the...

    I have never ever heard gun control or global warming supporters called pseudoscientists, maybe that's just me. In those cases there is extant data to support an argument. For me, anti-vax is more...

    The film: Vaxxed.

    Perhaps it's not being researched exhaustively because the research money is being squandered away proving over and over again that there is no vaccine-autism link. SafeMinds, for one, just wasted...
