I went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking at Alzheimer's disease (AD) the last few days (because I was curious) and I found out about a really interesting antibody that is in trials and I think the approach used here is super cool so I wanted to share a bit about it🧵

Achtung: Irreführende Wissenschaftskommunikation zu LongCovid und Impfung. Gestern wurde jetzt ein Artikel dazu offiziell veröffentlicht, der schon vor einem Monat mit der Interpretation durch Social Media ging, dass Impfungen nicht vor Long Covid schützen würden. Das ist aber falsch! (1/14)

@spiegel.de: Sie sehen in der Auswahl der Überschrift www.spiegel.de/gesundheit/e... nicht das Problem, daß Sie Alkoholkonsum verharmlosen und normalisieren?

„Durchhalten“ muss einen solchen Monat nur ein Alkoholkranker, alle anderen sind vollkommen unbeeinträchtigt.

Liebe Menschen, die glauben, dass es falsch ist, dass niedergelassene Ärzte sich über die Bezahlung beschweren.
Bitte fragt doch alle mal eure eigenen Ärzte, was ein Regress ist, wie oft diese kommen und wofür und wer das dann bezahlt.
Vielleicht versteht ihr dann…!

How much Oxygen do you give to patients after major trauma in your 🚁🏨🚑?
15l/min or FiO2=1, as ATLS recommends?

Turns out this may not be necessary or even harmful.

What did we do & find?

Anaesthetics: Deadpool

has a healing factor like wolverine but without the aggro. In fact quite humourous despite being paired with ITU.

Loves Sudoku and coffee. Much better looking with their masks on

Derangements in hemostasis can affect any organ system.

But no other organ system has more effects on hemostasis than the liver.

Liver dysfunction (LD) can result in deranged hemostasis with wide ranging implications.

In manchen Kliniken haben wir keine Kochsalzlösung für Infusionen mehr.

Dafür haben wir ein Gesetz mit einem albernen Namen, nämlich das Arzneimittel-Lieferengpassbekämpfungs- und Versorgungsverbesserungsgesetz.

Es wird immer absurder.
