OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for nine days. What the HELL? 1/

Until I was a young I adult, I thought that a general anaesthetic was one that was used all over the country. And a local one was one that was just used where I lived.

One off doses of antihypertensives for asymptomatic hypertension is associated with increased risk of AKI. Similarly randomly throwing darts in the air for no reason is associated with increased risk of ADITH.* Will this madness never end? *A dart in the head jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

If you’re feeling like a failure that never seems to get anything right, remember that you have about 1x10¹¹ cell divisions a day. Meaning that you successfully copy DNA about 100 quintillion times. You make fewer than 1 mistake in a million, and catch 99.9% of those. Good job.

Honey, stop what you're doing, new hyponatremia research just dropped! What's it say? It looks like slow correction is associated with worse outcomes, like death and length of stay! Was it just a small study? No, it was a meta-analysis of almost 12,000 patients! jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

As an editor I have the 'pleasure' of reading multiple clinical manuscripts each week. Content is key, there is no getting around this. But content needs to structured in an easily accessible way for the reader to engage... Is this called a "skeetorial"? Anyway, here we go. 🧪 #medsky #ansky

Our practice in the ICU is often so focused on minute details- titration by fractions of a unit, aggressively managing sometimes small margins of modifiable risk to give the patient the best chance we can... 🧵
