A recent poster presented at the American Heart Association, March 2024, using data from the NHANES dataset, showed that Intermittent Fasting (Time restricted Eating) for more than 16 hours a day led to a 91% increased risk of death over the next 8-10 years.
However, there are a lot of problems with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, Study design and statistics. In this live webinar, we discuss about all the potential problems with the study and why we cant trust the findings verbatim.

Planning a study requires attention to detail. I have broken these down into 10 steps which I call the 10 commandments. These are:


Introduce and Familiarize yourself with the steps in performing quality research
Review literature using PubMed, read Journals regularly and work on Hypothesis building.
Interact with a statistician before starting your study/thesis
Data collection and maintenance is Critical. Use tips for data entry in Excel sheets.
Give clear-cut guidelines to the statistician for data analysis and interpretation
Use a methodical approach with CHECKLISTS for Writing up the manuscript.
Choose a journal of choice carefully keeping in mind its indexing and your target audience
Use reference managers to efficiently maintain references.
Be aware of the Common causes of rejection of a manuscript and avoid these mistakes
Be positive even with rejection, be persistent and vow to come back stronger.
