@thelancet.com sums it up in one sentence:
🔥 Hot take:
The Pentagon has essentially announced that Claude is so much better than other models that they must have it.
Anthropic has signaled that they so much more principled than their competitors, that they can’t.
When the Pentagon backs down or loses this is a huge PR win for Anthropic.
Important ECG pattern for trainees to know and recognize, particularly at this time of year.

Do you know about ARDS mimics?
These are diseases that *LOOK* like ARDS but have very different treatment: AEP, DAH, OP, HP, EVALI, PJP, AIP, etc.
If you care for people with ARDS but this alphabet 🍜 of disease doesn’t immediately ring a 🛎️ you NEED to give this episode a listen!

Vinay Prasad’s appointment to lead the FDA’s CBER division is a disaster for biotech stocks but it’s worse for patients who depend on new therapies. Therapies that Vinay has signaled he won’t approve.
Wait. So he thinks Covid was just a sudden outbreak of…people dying from not eating well?

I work with the best team! Love this battle of the inotrope education: milrinone vs dobutamine.
Blue 🔵 or 🔴?
Me: ohh is this chylothorax?
Student: who’s Kyle Thorax?
Me: obv my new pseudonym..
Is this a ratatouille situation? It would kinda explain a lot.
We talk a lot more about how to put an ETT *IN* than how to take em *OUT*. On this week's @criticalcaretime.bsky.social @askinforair.bsky.social & I talk all things EXtubation.
- readiness to exubate
- breathing trials
- overcoming challenges
- addressing cuff leak
- plus cases
Give it a listen!

I really liked Season 1 of Fallout. One thing that struck me as unrealistic was Vault-Tec’s evil plan: to literally nuke the entire world so they could fundamentally reshape society according to their twisted views.
Anyway, it feels pretty realistic after this week…
NIH has rescinded its scientific integrity policy. Hard to see this as anything other than clearing the way for shoddy research on things like vaccines. Regardless of the rationale, it's bad news for public health.

Pretty strong personal statement tbh

This is the pinnacle of good design.
Person A submits an article. Person B reviews it & rejects it. Then person B changes the author name & submits the article to a different journal where it’s accepted. He claims he attached the wrong file by mistake. 😝
Really great argument for pre-prints!
