Some unpopular opinions for new medicine interns that I wish someone told me one year ago:

1. When you get your schedule, you'll hear that you’re starting on the worst block/service/etc.
Ignore that. Like med school, intern experiences depend on unpredictable factors like who you work with, availability of resources, proximity to free food, etc. It's super variable.

2. People will tell you to separate work and home.
Instead, do whatever you want. If you pre-chart better at home or want to note-prep before going in, if it helps you know what's ahead, do it. Check on your patients on your day off if you want. It's okay to worry about them.

Transgender health: Comparing model bills to real proposals; Many bills have preambles asserting that the risks of #gender-affirming care outweigh its benefits, which has been rebutted by major #medical organizations. courthousenews.com/transgender-he…
1) The AP obtained the texts of more than 130 bills in 40 state legislatures from Plural, a public policy software company, and analyzed them for similarities to model bills touted by the conservative groups Do No Harm and the Family Research Council.
2) The model bills have similar preambles, including the assertion — rebutted by major #medical organizations — that the risks of gender-affirming care outweigh its benefits. apnews.com/article/scienc…

Before we go any further, it's important to know this
🩸Eosinophil ≥ 500 is ABNORMAL
Eosinophil is a predominantly tissue dwelling cell so 🩸 eosinophil DON'T correlate with tissue damage 🤷♂️
We see a few patients with ⤴️⤴️Eos and no 🫀🫁 injury !!

Where do eosinophils come from?
Short answer: Bone Marrow
They are cells of the granulocytic lineage, siblings of neutrophils and basophils, children of the myeloblast (image👇🏻)
IL5 is the cytokine responsible for it's production, important to know because we have anti IL5 mAb

#HeartFailure (HF) is classified on the basis of ejection fraction (EF) and then into classes and stages. Let's have a look at what each of these mean to a physician in a clinical setting . A 🧵 (1/13)

#Heartfailure 💔 is a clinical syndrome that results from a structural or functional impairment of one or both ventricles. Ventricular filling and ejection are thus, hampered.

On the basis of EF, HF is classified into
1️⃣Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction(HFrEF)
2️⃣Heart failure with improved ejection fraction(HFimpEF)
3️⃣Heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction(HFmrEF)
4️⃣Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF)

Fibrinolytic agents are plasminogen activators(PA) that act by converting plasminogen to plasmin. Plasmin then degrades the fibrin matrix of thrombi and produces soluble fibrin degradation products resulting in clot lysis.

A close differential of TACO is TRALI. The symptoms are the same but this is non-cardiogenic pulmonary oedema.
So BNP will be normal here, neck veins won't be dilated
TACO needs diuretics and some restraint on your part🤣
TRALI=supportive care

Snake venoms are complex mixtures of proteins, peptides, and other molecules that have evolved for various purposes, such as prey immobilization and digestion. This video demonstrates how procoagulants in some snake venom promote blood clotting. How does this work? See Next⬇️1/3
These procoagulants directly interact with proteins involved in the blood clotting process. Often these are proteases (cleave proteins) which ultimately lead to the rapid formation of fibrin, the protein mesh that stabilizes blood clots. ⬇️2/3
Understanding venom is important in medicine, as there are many medical applications such as anti-clotting agents and blood pressure medication. 3/3

🧵2/12: Start by selecting an interesting or unique case that adds value to the presentation, diagnosis, or treatment of a condition. The case should provide new insights or challenge existing knowledge. #MedicalWriting #CaseSelection
🧵3/12: Look at existing literature for similar cases. If there are less than 20 cases reported on PubMed, it's a good indication that your case might be worth sharing. A thorough literature review is essential for a successful case report. #PubMed #LiteratureReview

Hiccups (aka 'singultus')are involuntary contractions of the diaphragm muscle. When this happens, it causes a sudden intake of air, which results in the sound we know as a #hiccup.(2/17)

🔵 Persistent hiccups last more than 2 days
🔵 Intractable hiccups last more than 1 month

It was really difficult to start off with notes because I had never used them. But slowly I got the hang of it. Solved PYQs and annotated them to my Marrow Revision notes. I also subscribed to Reflex app by @DrAditya2935 sir and solved as much as I could.
The establishment creates this problem by first denying the disease, creating a vacuum that quickly fills up with untested treatments & questionable cures. Then they go about trashing their victims who desperately need relief, and the doctors who are willing to treat.
