Another busy day at @ASNKidney #KidneyWk, notably with @LauraAponteBe presenting her work on Individual Treatment Effect Modeling for AKI Alerts: A Randomized Trial as a High Impact Clinical Trial on the big stage this morning! 👏
Wonderful week in the MICU with a very talented team. Here's to making sure we’re willing to challenge assumptions and stay curious.
Check out the latest edition of 'MICU Pebbles' by Dr. @MarkDSiegel1, part 2 is packed with pearls! 🩺✨

Congratulations to all our amazing graduates tonight! What a fun night with our @YaleNephrology family! What a great group of people, and a great way to spend the evening!
Such a wonderful evening celebrating our fantastic graduates at the beautiful @Yale Schwarzman Center, filled with a lot of smiles and laughs.
So fun to honor a group (aka flock of bar-tailed godwits, @brewster_ursula) we are so proud of!!🪽
Congratulations to our graduates!!

The GLP-1 receptor agonists (like Ozempic and Mounjaro) are wildly effective weight-loss agents. But are they COST-effective? That's a trickier question. And a new study just out in JAMA Health Forum provides an answer. A resounding "no."

This week, I've been thinking about pain. And David Lynch.
The former, because of a very cool study in @JAMANeurology which I'll tell you about in a second.
The latter because Dune 1984 and Twin Peaks were transformative to my childhood.

1/ As my global health rotation through @YaleNephrology @YaleGH & @Makerere in Uganda comes to an end, I am extremely grateful for this life changing experience. 🌟
A major highlight was having the opportunity to experience @ACCESS_UG
🧵
3/💡The practice of Medicine is to always put patients first, to have their best interest at heart and work hard to alleviate their needs. Thank you, Dr. Kalyesubula @rkalyes1, for showing the 🌍 that our profession goes beyond the needs encountered in healthcare facilities.
🧵
4/ Thank you @rkalyes1 for teaching us that putting patients first is also thinking of them as members of a community, hence working hard for its wellness and sustainability.
