Shorter durations of #antibiotic prophylaxis, including no prophylaxis, appear noninferior to longer durations for preventing mortality in patients with #cirrhosis and upper gastrointestinal bleeding. ja.ma/45k4vvS @bradspellberg Todd C. Lee

🚨 AI won’t replace doctors… but it can prevent them from learning how to think. A critical article in NEJM shows that if introduced too early in medical training, it weakens clinical reasoning. ✅ A good doctor will always need critical thinking. N Engl J Med 2025;393:786

Organ donation saves lives. But it only happens when systems are strong, ethics are sound, and people step up - as donors, families, professionals, and advocates. This #EuropeanDonationDay EDQM , let’s not just raise awareness. Let’s raise our standards. Raise our voices.
