@markkaplan20 Hi @markkaplan20 what are your thoughts on IL6 in the setting of elevated LPa? Should it and other inflammatory markers be checked? Thanks

[Alyssa Reddy @5Reddys]

@MohammedAlo Thank you! What level of Lpa do you consider elevated? Is any elevation atherogenic? Thanks again!

@jakescottMD Thank you for posting this @jakescottMD All week I’ve been thinking about a patient I cared for during peds residency in the mid 90’s. A healthy teenager with meningococcal meningitis, alert, talking to us on admission, treated with appropriate antibiotics, dead 48 hours later.

Team Beans ran the NYC Marathon for the 3rd year in a row in memory of my daughter, Francesca “Bean” Kaczynski, who died of brain cancer at 9 months old on Christmas Eve 2020.

Beans was bold, curious, and so full of joy—she loved Elmo, balloons, and her cat . Even in the hospital, she smiled and her huge brown eyes lit up every room.

We’ve raised $34K so far in her honor, you can donate here:

After doctors found a tumor in 3-year-old Roger's brain, @UCSF_PBC's Dr. @WinsonHoNsgy treated it w/ a minimally invasive laser procedure, which "can turn a risky surgery into something fairly routine, where the kid wakes up feeling fine," Dr. Ho says. https://t.co/MSdpKI7fru

Too many children with cancer face barriers to life-saving care. At UCSF Pediatrics, @drlenawine is tackling these disparities head-on, from improving AML outcomes to addressing financial hardships, so every child gets the care they deserve. Learn how: https://t.co/IaKj7hi3j1
