ADHD increases dementia risk, but the available epidemiological data suggests that stimulant medications may normalize risk. Totally fascinating

Thanks @hologramvin.bsky.social for this post! I did not know this so I hunted down the original paper:

Hey @societyhospmed.bsky.social, wondering if this can be planned for Converge 2026 or PHM '26?
You guys wish your conferences were as great as ours

Can confirm, am radical.
My radical views are that I’d prefer to pay for healthcare for all and food for everyone than have my tax dollars support genocide, ICE, and the bank accounts of the super wealthy.

The government is autistic. It's having a shutdown. Please give it space

Pediatrics is the lowest paid medical specialty. Our numbers are decreasing despite a constant rate of children in the US. If children are to be a priority, especially their health, something needs to change.

We are different, not broken.
Misunderstood, not mistaken.
Diverse, not diseased.

Autistic folk deserve to exist and love their fullest lives. Stop trying to fix the unfixable.
The insidious “obvious now” factor is that all this dialog of vaccine and Tylenol causing autism is that it’s normalizing and setting the tone of “neurodivergence is an unforgivable sin and we must not let them exist”

We are not a sin.
We deserve to exist.
We deserve love.

Interesting. Wondering how this affects peds-adjacent specialties (read #MedPeds), and what it will do for inpatient specialties (especially Heme/Onc, among the last of the subspecialties that hasn't given up their inpatient services)
Big changes are coming to #Pediatrics training.

🏥 Less inpatient time
🧠 New required mental health rotation
🩺 More outpatient & individualized curriculum

How will this reshape hospital medicine?

Interesting... Wondering how it does in comparison to nirsevimab, the current gold standard?
nejm.org NEJM.org @nejm.org · Sep 17
Clesrovimab is a long-acting monoclonal antibody against respiratory syncytial virus fusion protein. In the CLEVER phase 3 trial involving 3614 healthy infants, clesrovimab reduced RSV disease and associated hospitalization. Full trial results: nej.md/48jpBO4

#MedPeds here! This, and make Med-Peds training equivalent to a PHM board certification!
Two solutions that would bring back #MedPeds trained #doctors as well as increase #Pediatrics workforce:
1) pay #Pediatricians exactly same as adult medicine doctors for identical work (eg pediatric vs adult hospitalists)
2) provide same respect as IM doctors (which isn’t much, but more than Peds)
In case you’re wondering, it’s barely fall & our children’s hospital is already almost always full with kids boarding in the ER.

And the pediatric workforce is stretched thin.

Our system does not have the capacity to care for the influx of vaccine preventable diseases that is coming.

#ADHD can look different than you think and can be masked in motivated people - meaning many they hide symptoms and miss the support they need. Read about these characters to see if you know someone like them.
