GAME CHANGER Bacterial vaginitis MALE partner treatment dual-drug treatment, male partners were treated simultaneously with metronidazole 400 mg orally and 2% clindamycin cream applied to the penile skin, both twice daily for 7 days Cuts recurrence rates in HALF

The most practice changing trial from #ASCO25 is now live on NEJM .If this was a drug, this would be approved today. Globally relevant and low-cost intervention that is not only delaying relapse but actually improving survival. Perfect case example of a #cancergroundshot trial.

#CONFIDENCE built-in randomized withdrawal phase (after 180d of therapy) Reassuringly, early effects of combination therapy on: hemodynamics (BP lowering) electrolytes (K+ increase) kidney function (eGFR “dip”) all rapidly & fully reversible after drug cessation in just 30d!

A rare case. Kounis syndrome. A severe allergic reaction leading to #heartattack. Sanjay Kapur had a bee sting inside his throat when he swallowed it during a game of Polo. Probably lead to anaphylaxis and myocardial infarction and cardiac arrest. #MedTwitter

HDM005 is a dual GLP1/GIP agonist with GLP1 potency 3x that of tirzepatide and comparable GIP activity. We’ll see if this has any advantage in later stage trials. #ADA2025

Forward-looking intravascular imaging. Real-time, full-color video from inside the vessel. A glimpse into microchannels, neovessels, plaque morphology — things IVUS/OCT cannot see. Game changer for CTO PCI? Or just another beautiful solution searching for a problem?
