BIOLOGICS AND TB RISK - a talk on World TB Day
TNF inhibitor - rope is the thinnest
JAKINIB- moderate, other biologics- less risk
rule out active TB ( chest X-ray)
screening- IGRA>TST
3-month HP (isoniazid + rifapentin weekly regimen)
Indian data is needed💡

👉HRCT chest helps to diagnose
👉Biopsy is the gold standard

👉GMM versus WMM in lupus
👉GMM- severe form, high disease activity
👉WMM- more association with ACL antibody
💡MRI can be negative

💡SLE -PAH is an unexplored yet severe entity in lupus
💡RNP association - higher PAH, more anti-PAH therapy
💡 No antibody-associated PAH behaves refractorily
👉Multiple antibody positivity - inflammatory, more resolution of PAH

Once “The captain of all these men of death,” (John Bunyan, 1680), #Tuberculosis is now very much detectable, prevent-able, treatable.
Today, let's work through the #diagnostic modalities available for the scourge, in India.

What do you mean you cannot call it 'ARDS' in this non-intubated poor distressed chap OR that unfortunate lady immovable for XRays with so much activity on POCUS?!
Nah, another 'Berlin' wall falls for good!
All the #ARDS updates that you need to remember!

[Richa Ganatra MD @tea_on_loop]

Managing ARDS is an art in itself. A delicate and precisely calculated play of the buttons and knobs on the big beeping machine can save lives.
With the 2024 #update in the definition of ARDS, here's today's rendering of our #HallAManual2

[Sourav Garai @29th_of_Feb]

Rapid revision, through the wilderness of Anticoagulants, a must know domain for #Cardiology #Hematology and also for #Surgery colleagues!
For aspiring #MD Residents, and enthusiastic #MBBS students, this is probably all you need to know!

[Richa Ganatra MD @tea_on_loop]

👉 Continuing on the blood thinners, today we move on to Anticoagulants!
💯 Most important in today's table is the monitoring of different anticoagulants - and it all makes sense, once you go through the table thoroughly!

AFI= Acute Febrile **Illness** (rush error, apologies!)

The Monsoon is almost over, not the floods! The flood outside, and inside the hospital, with Tropical illness!
Today's #HallAManual snippet on a simplified approach to Acute Febrile Neutropenia with Thrombocytopenia!
LEMDS-C it is!

A thrill (literally) in MBBS days. An elephant in the MD Finals practical room. This small resemblance of a 'bishop's mitre' is crucial for survival on and off the exam papers.
A summary that could've made #Braunwald Happy!

[Richa Ganatra MD @tea_on_loop]

Clicks, snaps, rumbles, whooshes: mitral valve disorders can feel like an orchestra gone wrong 🎼🙃
But once you line them up right, the music makes sense: Crisp. Clean. Settled.
Today’s notes: Mitral valve lesions. 🎧🫀

Today's Snippet from #HallAManual
🍷ACUTE PANCREATITIS 🗿
Once a forte of Surgical colleagues, now a paradigm shift in management towards a more conservative and minimally invasive approach, AP managed appropriately is an art that saves tons, of money and lives!
