😣Patient: "All my joints are painful & swollen!"😣

👩‍⚕️But when you examine the patient, you don't find any joint swelling

How to approach this scenario? 🤷

#MedTwitter #RheumTwitter #MedEd 🧵🧵🧵

(1/10) Image
Now there are two possibilities

1️⃣ There was a joint swelling which is no longer there

OR

2️⃣ There was no joint swelling to begin with

(2/10)
Let's start with the first one– there was indeed joint swelling which is no longer there

That means we are dealing with

☝️ An episodic inflammatory disease
✌️ Drug modified disease

1) I am a big fan of evolutionary medicine --> the study of human evolution and how it can be harnessed for the practice of medicine.

I recently went in for a deep dive into an important topic --> HYPERURICEMIA

Here is what I learnt!
2) Uric acid is the endproduct of purine metabolism in humans --> this is an exception among mammals!

Why does this happen?

1. Lack of uricase
2. Avid renal reabsorption of uric acid
3) Why happened to uricase?

This ancient enzyme, present since bacteria, accumulated a number of mutations approx 10-30 million years ago and gradually lost its function in humans, some higher primates and some New World monkeys.

"Your diagnosis is elevated uric acid. You need to stop eating 🍅🥗🥦🥪🥩🫘, basically everything"

Beware of these!!

Elevated uric acid doesn't always 🟰 gout

#MedEd #MedTwitter #gout #Uricacid
Gout is a form of arthritis due to deposition of excess uric acid in joints and it usually has (not always) high serum uric acid levels.
If one has gout, then avoid:

🍺 Alcohol
🥩 Red meat
🧃 packed juices, carbonated drinks (high fructose corn syp)

À la question du pourquoi achetez-vous l’#eau en bouteilles plastiques, beaucoup répondent le goût :
Et selon les enquêtes d’opinion, qui valent ce qu’elles valent [CaD un peu, mais pas beaucoup non plus], c’est exactement ca :

Cependant, cette revue de l’histoire de la consommation d’eau en bouteille en France révèle qu’il s'agit d’un mouvement datant du début du 20ᵉ siècle qui s'est épanoui pour différente façon … dont la concurrence des embouteilleurs pour vendre plus.

🚨 Watch out, time for another #cholesterol #tweetorial! 🚨This time we’re going to take a look at the very fundamental nature of cholesterol molecule. It has biochemical properties that make it 1) essential to life but 2) problematic in excess. So let’s get to it! (1/33)
First, as everyone can read in wikipedia or a high-school level biology book, cholesterol is used to make many things. It’s a good building block for certain hormones, cell membranes and bile acids. But why? (2/33)
The reason is this sturdy multi-ring structure that has many “corners” for attaching stuff. Depending on specific needs, different types of molecular side chains can be attached to this basic frame (3/33)
