The 1st of 2 new articles in CID critical of clinical guideline process is out. See

It is long past time clinical guidelines incorporate the humility of uncertainty & stop creating standards of care absent of reproducible prospective studies.

Presented today at #LIVES2026:
Among patients with #SepticShock, a hospital-level strategy recommending #Vasopressin initiation at a lower dose threshold of other vasopressors did not reduce 28-day mortality vs a higher threshold strategy. Kidney replacement therapy–free days were also similar, indicating no outcome advantage for the lower-threshold strategy in routine practice.

ESR tells you that inflammation has left a slow systemic footprint.
CRP tells you that the liver is actively responding to cytokines
Procalcitonin tells you that the inflammatory programme may be bacterial or septic in nature.
They are not interchangeable clocks.
They are different biological readouts.

By age 70, 40% of men have mosaic loss of Y chromosome (mLOY); about 20% exhibit Y loss in at least 10% of their blood cells.
mLOY carries a significant risk for cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer's, and autoimmunity. But we don't measure it!

ALT The toolkit of a successful opportunistic pathogen. A. baumannii relies on a limited yet highly integrated set of traits that collectively enable persistence in clinical environments and opportunistic infection. These include antibiotic resistance (A), stress responses involved in the success of A. baumannii in hospital settings (B), genomic plasticity (C), and host interaction and virulence strategies (D). aa, amino acids; ATB, antibiotics; IS, insertion sequences; LOS, lipooligosaccharide; PAA, phenylacetic acid; T1SS, type 1 secretion system; T2SS, type 2 secretion system; TCS, two-component systems; Tn, transposons.
