We can blame HIPAA, HITECH, and TEFCA for messing up the EMR projects. The insurance cartel got their greedy little hands all over our medical record creating the standards for billing and coding. The medical record was always and originally meant to confer patient care now it’s

This is an important document. MRI access for pts w cardiac devices can be severely limited in some geographies. The problem is blatant disregard of evidence. It’s a good role for our professional societies. Time for sticks b/c carrots have failed.

I have to hand it to the university which keeps conjuring up creative ways to punish busy clinicians who don’t keep up with their online training modules.

The claim that cheap solar and wind energy is taking over from fossil fuels is a dangerous, expensive lie. There's a clear correlation between more solar and wind and much higher average power prices. My full page op-ed in today's New York Post: nypost.com/2025/05/07/opi…

We often hear that the transition to "cheap" renewable energy is inevitable. But across poorer countries, most of the new power comes from fossil fuels, with coal contributing more than all solar and wind additions (e.g. 13 times as much in Bangladesh). nypost.com/2025/05/07/opi…

However people who are losing large amounts of weight tend to get very far behind on protein. If they don’t get enough, they lose too much muscle mass.

Wrong move. Draped and gowns are water resistant. Need to use a chemical fire extinguisher. Every OR room should have one. I think time outs should emphasize procedures regarding how to respond to fires rather than fire risk assessment jamanetwork.com/journals/jamas…

A note on the limitations of propensity scores/matching etc. The Propensity Score (in JAMA): jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… What Are the Limitations of Propensity Score Methods? The propensity score for each study participant is based on the available measured patient

And another way propensity can go wrong.. Overlap Weighting A Propensity Score Method That Mimics Attributes of a Randomized Clinical Trial feinberg.northwestern.edu/sites/firstdai… Conventional IPTW assigns a weight of 1/PS for treated and 1/(1 − PS) for untreated patients, allowing

Even if the drug did cause loss of muscle mass, if you are treating serious obesity-related disease (heart, kidney, liver, etc) the net benefit would be positive A drug has the same biology; the docs job is to select pts most likely to incur a "net benefit"

Why memorize facts when the rules to create them are so much more fascinating?

A thought about my mom on Mother’s Day. By the time she was 15, my mom had seen her father, mother and brothers killed for being Jewish. She survived a concentration camp called Stutthof (bbc.com/news/world-eur…) which was notoriously brutal. Very few had survived to tell the

Edan Alexander’s family told yolan cohen יולן כהן that the plan is for Edan to fly to Qatar and meet with Trump and the Emir of Qatar on Wednesday or Thursday. In other words, the hostage is going to meet the man who financed his kidnappers.

A true hero story for you👇🏼 You're a 19-year-old kid. You are critically wounded and dying in the jungle somewhere in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. It's November 14, 1965. LZ (landing zone) X-ray. Your unit is outnumbered 8-1 and the enemy fire is so intense from 100 yards

I still see the ESR/CRP zombies everywhere! Stop the zombie madness!

Impressive is the current administration’s choice of ⁦Jay Bhattacharya⁩ ⁦Marty Makary MD, MPH⁩ and ⁦Vinay Prasad MD MPH⁩ to be in key healthcare leadership roles. US health, especially non-communicable disease, is in need of sweeping change. thefp.com/p/ahead-of-the…
