@DrSarahAxelrath At DH? The U?
Call me any time

[stu linas @stuartlinas]

Wait a minute!! Aren’t you sending to DH?

[Sarah Axelrath MD @DrSarahAxelrath]

Sure, drugs are fun, but have you ever been a PCP and heard “oooh, cool case and great work up so far!” from a consulting nephrologist? Now THAT’S a high!

[stu linas @stuartlinas]

@StinaSieg Very sad.
Any idea why Vic Vella left as well?

@DrSarahAxelrath @MGHMedicine Miss your Dad. He was a good friend and a gem of a person

Yea but…. 500 mg Na is not sustainable in the ‘real world’. Great proof of concept paper but impracticable at present time

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

Lowering salt (one teaspoon) in the diet among middle-aged and older adults was as good an effect for reducing BP as a first-line anti-hypertensive drug, independent of severity of HTN or meds, in ~75% of people, from a randomized trial

Not sure they hate research. Rather, no protected time, financial or staff support not included in teams

“The problem is, most primary care people hate doing research…”
The fact that <1% of research dollars go to primary care research will require more interest, advocacy and power. ⁦@NASEM_Health⁩ Primary Health Care conference

@nprscottsimon Thanks Scott! You have the skills to make a heartwarming story even more meaningful.

[stu linas @stuartlinas]

@StinaSieg Sometimes helps to write about all of your memories. Put aside but knowing you can go back and read is very soothing.

[stu linas @stuartlinas]

@Diuretic_papi What!!!! You never told us it was now!! Best wishes.

@JohnRMontford Works great. Several ip successes. Problem: unable to get insurance carriers to pay. ‘Not indicated’

Let me see if I got this right:
SCOTUS says states have no regulatory authority over carrying weapons BUT can regulate women’s’ choice over abortions. Is it just me or is this crazy?

[stu linas @stuartlinas]

@BruceSchackman @CHERISHresearch Send to me as well.

@StinaSieg @CPRverlee Talk to your vet about peritoneal dialysis for your buddy . Sounds awful but not. Honest

[stu linas @stuartlinas]

If I’m reading correctly… difference between groups is around 400 mg or about 17 mm/d. Not enough difference to anticipate an effect. Also control Gp consuming around 90 mmol Na/d-on grand scheme of dietary Na..not unreasonable

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

Medical dogma is that people with heart failure need to adhere to a low salt diet. The largest randomized trial reported today failed to show any benefit for reducing clinical events
