A colleague got a revise and resubmit because a reviewer wanted to her to run an ANOVA instead of a linear model. This is a bit of a silly request considering that an ANOVA is just a special case of a linear model—you won’t get a different result lindeloev.github.io/tests-as-linea…

Great talk on #AI for #MedEd research by Carl Preiksaitis StanfordEM CORD Here is a list of programs for conducting lit reviews more efficiently

In ED visits for headache, CT angiography has overtaken lumbar puncture, resulting in greater detection of unruptured (incidental) intracranial aneurysms and no change in missed diagnosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage. doi.org/10.1001/jamane…

New pub NEJM: after elimination of the waiver requirement to prescribe buprenorphine, the # of prescribers increased, but the # of patients changed little. U-M IHPI CHEAR Rena Conti Mark Bicket, MD, PhD, FASA Pooja Lagisetty Thuy Nguyen Amy Bohnert NIDAnews nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

It's NOT an abscess, it's a trap‼️ Great case by @SAlerhand and team. #POCUS #MedEd #FOAMcc #ultrasound 🔗sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We're learning so much about the aging process. Two papers advance the importance of synchronization of central (brain) and tissue circadian clocks for aging of muscle and skin science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Science Magazine sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Cell Stem Cell Salvador Aznar Benitah

And here's a great quote from WHY WE DIE "When they were young they wanted to be rich, and now that they’re rich they want to be young.”

When there is a -40% cut in out of network reimbursements by the health plans from before the #NoSurprisesAct went into effect, no one should be surprised that clinicians will access the IDR process in hopes of recovering some of that reimbursement. Based on CMSGov public use

Important life lessons I wish I knew years ago: 1 lost money can be found; lost time is lost forever 2 to learn, unlearn, relearn and then change yourself is a superpower 3 you are not your job 4 networking is about giving 5 the best teacher is your last mistake 6 good

In this Viewpoint, David Blumenthal and Gretchen Jacobson explore the affordability of health care services for Medicare Advantage vs traditional Medicare beneficiaries. ja.ma/3T8q8tQ

This year, OB-GYN applicants used a new system - ResidencyCAS - to apply to residency programs. ACOG just released preliminary application data - and a couple of figures caught my eye. (🧵)

YOU can help #FixMedicareNow! 📨 Send a message to Congress today and tell them to cosponsor the bill that will avert the Medicare physician pay cut scheduled for 2025.

We recently published a study of nearly 300,000 patients hospitalized with acute PE and found a surprising rise in UFH use, discordant with guidelines. As a follow-up, we just published a qualitative study to find out....WHY? The results were interesting 🧵

🧵 Hidden Gems in DeepSeek-R1’s Paper

We are excited to share our latest results on AMIE, Google AI Google DeepMind conversational medical AI. TL;DR – in a blinded OSCE, AMIE was equivalent or better at not only diagnosis – but also at making management decisions. This is a big deal! 🧵⬇️ x.com/alan_karthi/st…

Part of the soundtrack to my middle school dances is on "historic vids," and that is depressing me.

"In 1992, the Medicare conversion factor was $31.00. Today? $32.36. That’s a $1.36 total increase in 33 YEARS. If it had just kept up with inflation, it would be over $64.00 today. Instead, it’s more than 50% below where it should be."

Actually the Medicare conversion factor is the boss of inflation. Hasn’t given physicians a pay raise for their work in nearly 34 yrs. 🤦🏽‍♂️😤 AMA ama-assn.org/system/files/c…
