@ssdhall That’s bad. What is your source on this one?

[Sunjay R Devarajan @SunjayMD]

@hayoungcc @ProfJDChalmers Can you give us any insight into more commercialized use of the serum AGPL core IgA Antibody test for NTM lung disease screening? Is that in the works? We need an alternative to sputum collection/processing

@AnilMakam Well darn it if people don't add the meds to allergies list when they itch. That's half the battle!

@DrBrianWilliams @TomVargheseJr @ScottPelley If @ScottPelley looked me in the eyes and asked me a serious, no-nonsense question (you know the way he does it), I might spontaneously combust.

@aclong111 HI-PEITHO study seems to have answered what we want fro management of intermediate-risk PE. That would garner at least a few a few pumps from me

@PeterHotez without glasses completely throws me off.

Update from my colonoscopy yesterday: Procedure went smoothly! The prep wasn’t bad - pro tip: a clear liquid diet the day before (eg broth, apple juice, clear Jell-O) makes it much easier. And butt wipes (trust me).

Found one polyp, which was removed. Awaiting biopsy results, but that’s exactly why we screen: early detection saves lives.

DYK: Colonoscopies can⬇️ colorectal cancer risk by 69% and deaths bu 88% by catching and removing precancerous polyps early!

If you’re 45+, talk to your doctor about screening. Don’t wait - peace of mind is worth it!

@DrBrianWilliams I know what you mean. I don’t anything can capture how awesome we are though 🥸

It’s interesting that most heads-of-section are hired based on their CVs. Leadership skills are secondary! And that shows so often.

An elderly woman with history of #bronchiectasis and recurrent exacerbations was started on a new therapy, which has been helping significantly.

Within 6 months, however, she complained of new onset, significant hair loss (see below). What do you think caused this and what should we do next?

@ssdhall @DrBrianWilliams lol I love this answer

[Sunjay R Devarajan @SunjayMD]

@DanckersMD @accpchest @ATS_PC @atscommunity Hey Mauricio, would love to connect on a gameification project for acid base disorders and DKA for med students in ICU. Do you have anything on those subjects?

[Sunjay R Devarajan @SunjayMD]

Well, I can help you!

Primary care physicians (PCPs) frequently retain patients with bronchiectasis despite recurrence of symptoms. Read more in the new CHEST Clinical Perspectives white paper. https://t.co/K29VdmAxAn
