You've probably heard "don't give lactated ringers because it raises lactate" This statement is ~98% false, but there's one crucial practice-changing fact that you need to know. A 🧵 all about lactic acid and lactated ringers! 1/

Where are we with biological markers and staging for Parkinson's? Have we considered the impact to persons w/ disease? Should we start using the new term neuronal synuclein disease instead of the term Parkinson's disease? Are we ready? This is a story we should all be following

Met Dr. Glaucomflecken last night at the MnMedAssociation annual meeting - such a hilarious yet moving discussion about using humor in medicine and how it can actually be used to inspire change in our healthcare system. #advocacy #HealthcareForAll #wellness

Does epilepsy imaging cause you to seize up in fear? Everyone knows mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS)! But did you know there are different KINDS of MTS?? This month's @theAJNR SCANtastic shows YOU what you need to know in the latest in epilepsy imaging! ajnr.org/content/45/9/1…

What a shame… so many patients exposed to an experimental treatment with questionable basic science foundation. Makes me think of the root drivers of these scandals - publish or perish culture, academic promotion - science is not immune to greed!

Groundbreaking news in IIH! Tirzepatide shows significant benefits in IIH treatment - 68% reduced papilledema risk, improved vision & headache outcomes. Dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor activation could offer new therapeutic approach for IIH patients independently from BMI! #IIH #Brain

There has been a small fiber neuropathy (SFN) “epidemic” over the last 20 years, but few people know that isolated SFN (normal EMG) is rare. In Olmstead County, MN, it is rarer than CIDP. Below, I debunk a few other SFN myths 1/8 neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WN…
