Does every patient with lumbar spinal stenosis and high-signal facet joints need spinal fusion? 🧵

Our new study says no, not always! A simpler approach might be the way forward for some patients in the Hunter New England Local Health District.

How many duplications does it take to get a paper retracted?
@wiley.com's Liver International thinks that 10 duplications are still not enough, and issued a correction, just deleting the offending figure 6.
Unbelievable.

Acute otitis media occurs almost exclusively after a viral upper respiratory tract infection. Children with mild or moderate symptoms can be treated with antibiotics or closely observed. Learn more in a new Clinical Practice article: nej.md/4iewDVV

4°C of global warming would make us 40% poorer.

It would also mean:

⚡️ More extreme weather
🌊 Rising sea levels
🌍 Global supply chain disruptions
🏥 Strained health systems
🧍‍♀️ Mass displacement

The costs of inaction far outweigh the costs of reducing emissions. It's time to phase out coal and gas.
Average person will be 40% poorer if world warms by 4C, new research shows
Experts say previous economic models underestimated impact of global heating – as well as likely ‘cascading supply chain disruptions’

For the first time in NSW history, senior and junior doctors are taking industrial action together, 8-10 April.

We have spent years trying to address the staffing crisis in our public hospitals.

This is our last resort.

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women.

More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications.

I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.
