My wife is in Alzheimer's research. It turns out that the same bogus "quantile regression" methods that have been used to exaggerate genomic findings (bsky.app/profile/ent3...) are also being used to promote marginally effective AD treatments.

Yesterday @kph3k noted that I "loathe" decile analysis as a way of describing the results of a PGS analysis. The subsequent discussion clarified why I loathe it-- it's a misleading way of reporting results, a systematic sleight of hand to disguise the import of a small effect. /1
