The internet allows anyone to post anything they choose totally without Peer Review. Therefore, the Afrezza reviews, both positive and negative, on various social media, discussion groups and medical sites are totally useless unless they are published in a reputable journal.

By that analysis, avogadro, anything posted on this board is totally useless. So why are you bothering to participate?

I get what you're saying but I take comfort in knowing Spiro personally and I have great confidence in afrezzauser after all these years of following him. However, the data is still anecdotal at best. But I will still read every word w/ great interest. |

What exactly is your point? Should afrezzauser have someone following him around making sure what he says ends up in a reputable journal? Useless to who? I bet theres a lot of value in what people post. |

Peer review requires statical analysis and this has already been carried out and the FDA granted a license .. ADCom was a Peer review and voted for the drug.. |

Who decides what is a reputable journal? |

Spiro will post a screen shot of his Pre-Afrezza A1c and his 3 month A1c in May. But this will not be done to satisfy skeptics, it will be done to share information with his friends on this board.
Spiro here

Hey, avogadro, do these thoughts just jump in your head and then you write them here? I do the same thing (just ask Liane). But you need to understand based on the experience and maturity of this board, that people understand there are no guarantees that any of those items you list are 100% genuine. However, fellow posters are able to come up with at least a probability of what is going on in reality based on reviews. So "totally useless" is a gross exaggeration. Just as "totally genuine" would be. After a while, I think we can all handicap the probabilities of any particular poster, reviewer, blogger, etc., being genuine and being accurate. |

I wouldn't call what's happening on Twitter to be useless and would not presume to under estimate the power of social media.
That said, however, Avogadro has a point and hopefully Sanofi is working to get some research published in medical journals that contain a great deal more trial data and analysis than what the FDA is currently allowing to be advertised to the consumer and physician in connection with Afrezza.
It's pure semantics, but asking the question "Is Afrezza is Lowering Insulin Intolerence in Type 2 Diabetics?" in a medical journal and including results from Sam, Eric and others, cannot be construed by the FDA as advertising...
...although an article in the New England Journal of Medicine entitled, "Is Afrezza Proving to be the Holy Grail of Diabetic Treatments?" might get frowned upon.
I've pitched my tent in the camp that believes Sanofi knows what they are doing with Afrezza and that they will get the right information into the hands of the movers & shakers within the medical community.

And all this time I thought Spiro was really thinking about Siberia...wow Baba, thanks for shooting that down  |

mnholdem, yes, that's what I had in mind. Many doctors pay attention to the scientific literature |

Spiro here To assure the integrity of the results so this it is not dismissed as "something on the internet", I recommend that your A1c results be picked up at your doctor's office by executives from Pricewaterhouse Coopers, delivered in a sealed envelope and only opened by Neil Patrick Harris during a live webcast. That's gotta be HIPAA compliant, I'd think. |
