@shuomi3 is a very smart guy.I love his YouTube videos on note making, especially the one on Zettelkasten method for research. I have made a modified easy to understand modification of the same for doctors and medical researchers, read on...
The first step make small notes while reading a review article or a research paper in your own words. @shuomi3 calls this "Literature notes"
For example while reading a review article of "Hypophysitits" , I came across a great clinical pearl that if we have a male with hypophysititis, we have to consider IgG4 disease. Goes into my Roam notes.
The next step is called "Reference notes" . After you finish reading an article, list the DOI or PubMed id ad title of the article and write a brief summary of the key points that you learned from the article with the relevant key words.
The final step is Permanent note or "Evergreen notes". Connect what you have learned to a project, article or textbook chapter you are working on. Again, this has to be in your own words and connected to what you have learned from other article by other authors on the same topic.
In Summary, repeating the three steps 1. Step 1 - Literature notes 2. Step 2 - Reference notes 3. Step 3- Evergreen or permanent notes

🧵 Twitter Thread: The Surprising Case of a 6-Year-Old with Diabetes Mellitus
1/ Hey Twitterverse! 🌟 Today, I want to share an intriguing case that highlights the importance of considering all possibilities when diagnosing diabetes in children. Meet a 6-year-old boy who presented with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus. #Diabetes #MODY #Pediatrics
2/ At first, we thought of the typical type 1 diabetes, which is quite common in children. So, we treated him accordingly with insulin therapy. But there was something that didn't quite add up. 🤔 #Type1Diabetes #InsulinTherapy
Oxytocin Deficiency in Patients with Diabetes Insipidus 🧪🩺
1/ Oxytocin deficiency in patients with diabetes insipidus (DI) has been investigated in a recent study published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology. Let's dive into the key findings and implications of this research!
2/ The study aimed to explore oxytocin deficiency in patients with arginine vasopressin deficiency (central DI) by using 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), a potent activator of the central oxytocinergic system. This was a case-control study conducted at 🇨🇭
MC Thomas in his article argues that Type 2 Diabetes should be renamed the "CARAMEL Disease" (A 🧵)
What does CARAMEL stand for ?
CARAMEL stands for CArdiac, Renal, Adipo-Metabolic, Eye and Liver disease
His argument is that Type 2 diabetes is a mere manifestation of the "actual disease". So are the other manifestation of the CARAMEL acronym which all arise from the common soil... So that this common soil?
Diabetology.co.in is India's first and only evidenced based precision medicine & personalized medicine platform for diabetes made for the doctors and by the doctors.
The project is mentored by Dr. Arvind Gupta, a legend in this field from Jaipur.
We thank the RSSDI Research team, especially Dr. @banshisaboo and @dramitaol for giving us this opportunity.
1/5: 🩸 The Hemoglobin Glycation Index (HGI) compares a person’s actual HbA1c level to their predicted level based GMI (glucose management index) value from CGM
2/5: 📊 The HGI is calculated by subtracting the estimated HbA1c from the measured HbA1c. A high HGI suggests increased glycation rate, linked to microvascular complications in diabetes.
The Clarke Error Grid Analysis (EGA) is a tool developed in 1987 to assess the clinical accuracy of blood glucose meters by comparing their readings to reference values.
The grid breaks down a scatterplot of a reference glucose meter and an evaluated glucose meter into five regions:
Region A are those values within 20% of the reference sensor,
