Hello #MedTwitter #NephTwitter 🌞
Here’s our weekly neo-nephrology 🧵
#Tweetorial

Topic: Neonatal AKI
First let’s highlight the largest multinational study that looked at neo AKI: AWAKEN by @atomic_kidney @DDD_Askenazi & members of @NeonatalKidney

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5933049/

Last night on @UnremarkableLab w/ @UABIMRes
and @medrants there was a patient who presented with aphasia and his BP was extremely elevated >250 systolic. What is the ddx here?

1. Hemorrhagic stroke
2. Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome
3. Hypertensive Emergency

#Tweetorial! Continuing with the #NeuroBootCamp my co-chiefs and I are leading @EmoryNeurology on #NeuroEmergencies, today’s #MedEd topic will be:
“Myasthenic Crisis”

Keep in mind I’m approaching this with my #NeuroCritCare hat on @MedTweetorials

Antifungals have come a LOOOONGGG way but we still lose many battles against these stubborn bugs😢

What is a rheumatoid factor anyway?

RF is a polyclonal antibody that is against the Fc portion of IgG. Normally, IgM is the only RF Ab measured, however, there are RFs of the other Ig classes. What is the most specific antibody for rheumatoid arthritis?

The Glasgow Coma Scale is a widespread and important tool for discussing conscious level. After all, "what's the GCS?", barked the stereotypical neurosurgeon at the cowering FY1. But why?!

Well, I can't answer that. But let's think about the GCS in this #tweetorial. #MedEd 1/15

If you have not listened to the @CuriousClinPod most recent podcast (Episode 10: Why does metronidazole treat both bacterial and parasitic infections?) then I suggest you tune in.
