BOJRAB, MD The Beverage Wars and the Sick-User Effect ecently at a meeting, I had an exchange with a respected colleague about the potential risks as- sociated with sodas and products sweetened with Rsugar substitutes. He expressed concern about these potential risks which was contrary to my under- standing of the topic. It prompted me to spend some time doing a review of some of the more recent data. There has been more interest again in this topic lately due to a recent article in JAMA Internal Medicine pub- lished September 3, 2019 titled Association Between ened drinks and deaths from digestive diseases with Soft Drink Consumption and Mortality in 10 European a hazard ratio of 1.59 (95% CI 1.1.24-2.05).

Complicating this type of observational study is the fact that people who are overweight and who are at greater risk of cardiovascular disease are more likely to avoid sugar-sweetened drinks, so while this may strengthen the association, it does not speak to the degree of causation. This is an example of the sick-us- er effect. This is also seen in the association between the use of a daily multivitamin and an increased risk of mortality (people who are sick or recently diag- nosed with a potentially life-threatening illness are gradually declined over the course of observation more likely to take multivitamins than are the gener- following NNS consumption.

  • Sagamore of the Wabash Award Was Created During the Term of Governor Ralph Gates, Who Served from 1945 to 1949
    Sagamore of the Wabash by Jeffrey Graf Reference Services Department Herman B Wells Library Indiana University Libraries - Bloomington The French Republic rewards merit most notably with grades of membership in the Legion of Honor, originally created by Napoleon for worthies of his empire. In Britain the sovereign can choose from a range of honors to acknowledge service or accomplishment. Although the Most Noble Order of the Garter is reserved for the happy few, a simple knighthood might be an appropriate reward. Within the royal gift, too, is recognition in the form of a life peerage or even av hereditary title. On the other side of the Atlantic the American president has available the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the United States’ highest civilian honor. In case a potential honoree does not quite measure up to that distinction, there is a second-highest civilian honor, the Presidential Citizen’s Medal. Not to be outdone by the executive branch, the Congress created the Congressional Gold Medal, its highest award. Like nations, professional societies, institutes, universities, associations, businesses, museums, clubs, fraternal groups, and other organizations pay tribute to the meritorious. Such entities, devoted to all kinds of endeavor from the fine arts to professional sports, present scrolls, plaques, medals, trophies, certificates, keys to the city and other tokens of esteem to their laureates. County fairs award blue ribbons; the Kennel Club chooses Best in Show. Athletes compete for the gold and silver and bronze or the Stanley and Davis and Ryder cups. For mathematicians there is the Fields Medal; in the same intellectual realm, there are the Nobel Prizes.
