It's elementary
Let’s see here…If I didn’t rock climb all that much and then suddenly decided to rock climb 3 times as much, would it be safe to say that my chances of getting injured while rock climbing would increas 3-fold? Would you need research to figure that out? Never underestimate those who submit for grant money.
Middle-aged and older men who take erectile dysfunction drugs such as Viagra are more likely to have sexually transmitted diseases, a new study of more than 1.4 million men finds. Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital and the University of Southern California say the fault lies not with the drugs but rather the high risk behaviors of the men who request them. And doctors should counsel these patients about safe sex practices, they said.
There’s no way that you needed a bi-coastal study to come to this conclusion. What, 8 hours a day wasn’t enough? You needed the blanket of an 11-12 hour day to crack this one? I’m surprised that the University of Singapore didn’t join in on this study so that the sun wouldn’t have to set on this scientific leap of a study.
Yes, people who have more sex are at higher risks of experiencing the negative by-products of having more sex. Isnt’ that a variation of Newton’s 3rd law of Motion?
Jena and his co-authors examined health insurance claims records covering 1997 though 2006 from 44 large U.S. employers. The study group included about 34,000 male beneficiaries over 40 who used ED drugs, for whom the researchers collected data covering one year before and one year after the first prescription was filled, and nearly 1.37 million men over 40 who were non-users, for whom claims data was also collected. Men who had been prescribed an ED drug were two to three times more likely than non-users to have sexually transmitted diseases.
9 years of data and 1.4 million men, all to come to a “No Shit!” conclusion. Brilliant.
