What were the most impactful non-COVID papers over the past 2 years? Let's delve in and take a look. #SOA21
Finally an opportunity to not talk about COVID! #SOA21
TOMAHAWK - immediate vs delayed/selective angio. 3 years to conduct the trial in 31 ICUs. 554 patients. 'Worse' survival in immediate angiograph? Not SS, but close... #SOA21

We've looked at bats for a long time.... #SOA21 They have strong interferon responses, but not strong inflammation....
So what happens instead? #SOA21 They will tolerate high levels of viraemia with little symptoms. Bats are old... 65million years ago - they appeared at the end of the dinosaurs! They are far longer lived that other mammals. Senescence is late - more towards end of life.

Organophosphate poisoning, toxicology, dengue, snake bites and malaria.... sure what could go wrong? #SOA21 @ICS_updates Drs. Chacko, Yacoub, Bhaumik and Dondorp tell us more.... πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡πŸ˜˜
Let's go to India - Tamil Nadu.
I'd advise anyone not overly family with Organophosphates to start here: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK49986… #SOA21

Biomarker guided abx treatments in sepsis. We catch up with Drs/Profs: Paul Dark, Stacy Todd, Enitan Carrol, Jonathan Sandoe and Matthew Stevenson on this large area of research @ICS_updates #SOA21
So, do biomarkers have any utility in guiding abx use in sepsis? We can measure, usually, these ones fairly easily: #SOA21
In around 2014, commissioned review in PCT. Seemed to suggest a shorter duration in abx use when PCT used.... tenuous data though. #SOA21 Low quality. Little evidence from UK... how does this fit into NHS practice in the realms of stewardship?

@iceman_ex, myself and @dr_mattmorgan talk about how to keep yourself intellectually safe on Social Media at #SOA21 (full talk at soa.ics.ac.uk)

A thread πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡
There's been a lot that's gone on over the past few years that's exposed the well known 'darker' side of social media. Traditional paradigms of knowledge dissemination have changed (if not disappeared). Much higher tech-savy population. #SOA21
This has democratised the discussion space to an extent. It allows for *anybody* (lit. anybody) to get involved. #SOA21

Is COVID-19 hyperinflammation, or a cytokine storm in a teacup? @DrPujaMehta1 's fab talk from #SOA21 today! Image
Main Q = "Hyperinflation contributing to worse outcomes for some patients with COVID-19" - clinical similarities to sHLH seen. Viruses are the most common trigger of sHLH. Early reports from China suggested cytokine profile was similar to sHLH in terms of COVID severity. #SOA21 Image
We now know some things work and some things don't.... in certain populations. #SOA21 Image

What have we learned during COVID? Prof Tony Gordon takes us through a whirlwind tour of COVID-19 research.... #SOA21 Image
Scientists AND politicians in the spotlight during COVID. Very different approaches between the two groups.#SOA21 Image
First reports and articles with hundreds of patients.... moving on to thousands of patients. #SOA21 ImageImage

Prof. Jerry Nolan - a giant of resuscitation - discusses why we can't replicate the trial outcomes in cooling post-cardiac arrest.... #SOA21 A thread πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡ Image
Jerry Nolan presenting! We know for sure that hypothermia BEFORE something like cardiac surgery is protective. As well as pre-cooling prior to cardiac arrest! #SOA21 ImageImage
Many animal studies. Mimic the clinical conditions of cardiac arrest. #SOA21 The timings here are important - mean no (asystole) /low-flow (CPR) times. Hypothermia induction times immediate OR delayed up to 60mins. Hypothermia improved neuro outcome and reduced mortality by 67%. ImageImage

Starting off with some physiology! Cold immersion and hypoxia survival. #SOA21 A thread πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡πŸ˜— Image
Drs. Tipton and Mekjavic with Mr Lemons talking at this session. #SOA21 ImageImage
Chris Lemons tells us his fascinating story about working as a commercial saturation diver, at the extremes of human exploration. He's going to tell us about back in 2012 - 'The Topaz Incident'. energyvoice.com/oilandgas/nort… #SOA21 ImageImage
