Exercise may be a goldmine for drug discovery: hormones, peptides & other proteins produced during exercise could be therapeutics for neurodegenerative or psychiatric disorders. But scientists are only beginning to understand the mechanisms by which exercise benefits the brain.

[AdventHealthMD @AdventHealthMD]

Exercise affects thousands of body pathways. Understanding molecular mechanisms is crucial to develop therapies that mimic brain benefits of exercise, @AdventHealthCFL neuroscientist Kirk Erickson, PhD, explains in @DrugDiscovNews: https://t.co/1kkZkcpy8q #MedTwitter #BrainHealth

“This is a new frontier for medicine; we don’t have as much information about long COVID…” Dr. Dwayne Gordon of @AdventHealthCFL said. “This is a fresh approach to caring for patients & learning the best way to take care of the unique needs of long COVID patients.” #MedTwitter

[Florida Medical Association @FloridaMedical]

@AdventHealthMD has opened a multidisciplinary clinic — the first of its kind within the hospital system — focused on treating long COVID-19. Located in Orlando, it is for patients who have COVID symptoms lasting 12 weeks or more: https://t.co/CXbRXApRqE. #adventhealthmd

“@AdventHealth had 2 significant cases in recent years, so our team clearly understood the critical importance of a rapid & reliable diagnostic tool, but unfortunately, there is not a commercially available molecular test for detecting free-living amoebas in cerebrospinal fluid.”

[Florida Medical Association @FloridaMedical]

After three years of research and development, an @AdventHealthMD physician and clinical team have created a new test to diagnose a brain-eating amoeba within three hours. Read for more: https://t.co/QqIIlAag2S. #AdventHealthMD

@FloridaMedical @AdventHealthMD This is great insight by @DavidBuxtonMD, explaining how the stress clinicians are experiencing now is very different from traditional burnout. He also gives tangible actions clinical colleagues can take to begin to heal.

“…we can deliver a stronger chemotherapy agent directly to the liver tumors while sparing the surrounding healthy tissue,” Dr. Zakari said. “Because of the limited systemic toxic side effects, we can concurrently treat the patients with full doses of systemic chemotherapies.”

[AdventHealthMD @AdventHealthMD]

Patients with colorectal liver metastases or cholangiocarcinoma can now locally receive hepatic artery infusion to administer floxuridine directly to the liver, about 400 times more than can be administered via a vein. @OrlMedicalNews explains: https://t.co/SB8xCsRQp2 #MedTwitter

Two cases of young patients who developed brain-eating amoeba infections with very different outcomes led @AdventHealthCFL clinicians to develop a new method for testing for the 3 most common life-threatening amoebas found in freshwater.

[AdventHealthMD @AdventHealthMD]

.@AdventHealthCFL Dr. Jose Alexander and his team developed a new test to diagnose #braineating amoebas within 3 hours. Previous testing took up to 6 days, but an amoeba can kill its host in 3-7 days! Read more: https://t.co/1G5TDb7XYo #MedTwitter #LaborDaydanger

When groups meet to brainstorm, good ideas are lost. People bite their tongues due to conformity pressure, noise, and ego threat.

A better approach is brainwriting: generate ideas separately, then meet to assess and refine.

Group wisdom begins with individual creativity.

Diagnosing a rare disease can take 4-5 years & often involves an earlier misdiagnosis, Dr. Wadhawan explains in a @HCInnovationGrp interview. While rare diseases typically affect <200,000 people, there are >7,000 types. This equates to impacting 1 in 10 Americans. #MedTwitter
