Landmark court decisions for climate change mean that big emitters can no longer feign ignorance about the impacts of their activities.

Medical professionals have a part to play in this process, say @lauraclarkece.bsky.social and @hughmontgomery.bsky.social

So apply this to chemicals you demonize. Challenge your beliefs.

It’s ok if you were misled.
Disinformation is loud & viral.
It’s not ok to spread lies when you have facts.

Apply a principle you understand to safe & studied vaccine ingredients too.

Thimerosal isn’t mercury. But to RFK Jr, facts don’t matter.
RFK Jr. just made vaccine disinformation federal policy. People will die from preventable illness—and that’s the point.

When public media disappears, so do the stories that bring us together.

With federal funding eliminated, millions may lose their last trusted source of news and connection.

new RCT just came out on the management of acute necrotic collections (ANC) that may complicate necrotizing pancreatitis

ANCs are early sterile collections containing fluid and sometimes debris

they *lack* a well-defined wall (unlike pseudocysts or walled-off necrosis)...

Long-term functional outcomes after VA #ECMO in adults
🔍 study investigating incidence of death/new disability after VA #ECLS initiation in 🇦🇺 🇳🇿
At 12 months 30% pts alive without new disability. Major burden of disability appears to develop in first 6 months, with no relevant recovery between 6-12.
Long-term outcomes after VA #ECMO in adults
🪦 death/new disability at 12 months 70.6% (70.8% at 6)
⚖️ differences in outcome associated with reason for #ECLS
⚖️ at 12 months (vs 6) more pts independent in AdL (62.1% vs 48.2%), fewer pts unemployed due to health reason (32.7% vs 47.4%)
