Hi! We will discuss your article tonight 9 pm EST (I know, difficult hour for your timezone) #NephJC

Here is our take on your article www.nephjc.com/news/metform...
Metformin- Should I Stay or Should I Go — NephJC
This week, we will discuss another target trial emulation study. The FDA says to stop metformin at a GFR of 30. Are they right?

Real-world tirzepatide use in #T2D in 🇺🇸

🔹 Initiation: 84% start at ≤5 mg, 69.6% ⤴️ dose within 6m

🔸 Dosing at 6m: 56.5% remain <10 mg

🔹 Persistence: 73.3% still on treatment at 6m

🔸 Discontinuation: 26.7% stopped, 29.1% restarted

👉 Persistence high, slower titration the norm

Olympic swimming champion Gary Hall Jr., a hero to the #type1diabetes community, has lost his home and medals in the California fires. Gut wrenching.

BlueSky auto-captioned this as “A room with people sitting around tables having discussions” - which at one level is pretty much what happened today . . . but on another level we planned the next 5 years of UK Clinical Trials Units strategy!
Homeward bound from a fabulous Directors meeting for @ukctunetwork.bsky.social. Lots of discussions about sustainability, funding and policy. Loads to think about for our strategic priorities.

Shared this on Twitter this morning - and joined BlueSky this afternoon. First post - nice collaboration on Scottish nationwide diabetes data with Samira Bell @ University of Dundee. Innovative methodology and challenges received wisdom on withdrawing metformin after acute illness.
