🥳 Tooting my own horn 🥳

Just got back from a 1-week road trip vacation and learned... 3 papers were published while I was away!

Here's a quick #medthread 🧵about an epic week of publishing w/friends—what we learned, and what we created!

Have you ever been asked to peer-review a manuscript and wondered if you were "doing it right?"

You are me.

@crblease & I published a template to help organize the thoughts of newbie reviewers (including patients).

Now that #opennotes are mandatory, will clinician documentation change?

Rahimian et al., analyzed 143,888 notes from 60 #hemonc clinicians from 2012-16, before AND after introduction of open notes.

TL;DR: Notes became longer AND easier to read.🤔

What do older adults think of #opennotes?

@cmd418 + team learned those w/≥2 chronic conditions were MORE LIKELY to report reading open notes helps them take medications as prescribed, AND understand & feel more in control of their 💊.

Personal notes:
-🙏 @danamlewis convinced me the peer review template can help others
-🙏 @hemoncwarner @trentrosenbloom didn't bat an eyelash when I suggested clickbait for a manuscript title😁
-The secret is out: people w/associate's degrees can publish in scholarly journals 😊
