Researchers found that the software had a much higher false-positive rate than previously reported, while sensitivity for malignant nodules was similar to radiologists (87% vs 93%) 📖

The serum creatinine level is a concentration, amount per volume.
If you quickly expand plasma volume by 20%, the Cr will decrease by ~20%, saying nothing of GFR.
Same goes for ALT, WBC, CRP, and other values that we trend and sometimes overinterpret small fluctuations of.

Curious if folks ever use this in setting of rapidly rising creatinine to make med dosing decisions - why or why not?

The abdominojugular reflux test was performed by applying firm, sustained pressure to the center of the abdomen. A sustained increase in jugular venous pressure (JVP) of more than 3 cm of water for more than 10 seconds indicates a positive test. Full case details: nej.md/4752OVV

The ‘hippo’ in ‘hippopotamus’ and the ‘hippo’ in ‘hippocampus’ are the same.
‘Hippo’ is from the Greek for "horse."
Hippopotamus means “river horse.”
‘Hippocampus’ means “sea horse” because that part of the brain is shaped like a seahorse.

1 bumet (PO&IV) = 20 torsemide (PO&IV) = 40 furos IV
1 dexamethasone = 5 pred = 25 hydrocort. PO = IV for all.
And I'll add one more:
1 lorazepam = 5 diazepam = 25 chlordiazepoxide. PO = IV for all.
1 dexamethasone = 5 pred = 25 hydrocort. PO = IV for all.
And I'll add one more:
1 lorazepam = 5 diazepam = 25 chlordiazepoxide. PO = IV for all.
(For posterity, the other conversions I think everyone should know in their head are loop diuretics and common corticosteroids)

Reminder that blood has ~4,000,000 RBCs per microliter (cubic millimeter). Just to put in context the RBC counts in various other fluids we obtain invasively e.g. ascites, pleura, joints, CSF, etc.

Always look at the anion gap. Even if the bicarb is 24, there could be a lot of lactate or salicylate or whatever else in there, tug-of-warring with a metabolic alkalosis.
