▪️79% ♂️, 11 CD, 3 UC
▪️86% arose in IBD lesions
▪️45% were EBV positive Image

Let’s talk AZA/6-MP in IBD

#IBDPolls 1️⃣&2️⃣👆🏽
✅Role as Mono/combo therapy
✅Escalation consideration
✅TPMT & NUDT15 testing
✅Side effects & counseling Image
@MondayNightIBD @NavreetChowlaMD @MilestoneIBD @IBD_FloMD @tinahamd @DrCoreySiegel @HorstIBDDoc @MLongMD @LauraRaffalsMD @doc_ibd @IBDBen 2/ AZA trials in IBD:

🔹Corticosteroids needed to induce remission
🔹Takes ~12 wks for AZA/6MP to become effective, so taper steroids accordingly
🔹AZA/6-MP effective for maintenance of remission (mainly in UC); Not effective for induction ImageImage

Let’s pause for a second, and remember two major #stigma spreading around as contagiously as #COVID19. 🦠
1️⃣Ethnicity of the virus and
2️⃣wearing #PPE

I’m addressing 2️⃣ today, but for more guidance on 1️⃣, & more social Do’s and don’ts, please refer to 👉unicef.org/documents/soci…
To summarize the ongoing debate: “Absence of evidence is NOT evidence of absence”. A half full glass 😷 can be better than none at all. This 🏴&🏳️ system is leading to two issues:
1️⃣ opportunity to incentivize PPE production is lost
2️⃣ STIGMA against those who choose to don.
If you have 12 minutes to spare, enjoy this well illustrated thesis on the topic, it might change your mind. @medpedshosp

10 things IMG (and USMG) applicants should know for the 2020 residency MATCH: I can’t help but recall how stressful the application journey was one year ago. I hope this thread helps out (instead of adding stress)! @ERAS @AAMC
Build your CV: it helps as you are requesting letters from mentors, or basically any email you're sending. Have a clear CV that speaks of your accomplishments. Do not miss a certificate or work in progress. Here is a link to how to do a cover letter.
Before programs see your application & statement letter, look at it yourself. Know your goals, or at least outlines of your goals. Know your weaknesses and SHOW that you are working on them. Practice your ONE LINER. This will improve your statement letter and application.
