New clinical trial (phase 3) in metastatic colorectal cancer:

Adding tumor debulking surgery to standard palliative chemotherapy did not significantly improve survival.

Median survival:(382 pts)
• Chemo alone: 27.5 months
• Chemo + surgery: 30 months

👉 Takeaway: Surgery may not add clear survival benefit in patients with multiorgan metastases.

Before I followed #MedTwitter, I started with #MedBlr in Tumblr which has been a sort of refuge for me during my medical education and training years.. MedBlr is still fun and engaging. I'm still there.

Now, I'm on the #Fediverse and it already feels like a new home 💗😊

Hello friends on my phone!

I wonder if other #medtwitter (RIP) participants feel like they are living in a simulation, or is it just me?

Going to try to recapture some of the old magic that was #MedTwitter and #SciTwitter back in the day!

I'm Adam, an internal medicine physician, historian, author, and artificial intelligence researcher. I study how people and machines make decisions together. Great to meet everyone!

3/4 Privatization doesn’t create doctors or nurses. It siphons them from public hospitals and inflates costs. Countries with better systems didn’t privatize—they invested in capacity. #HealthFunding #HealthcarePolicy #MedTwitter

Nothing says 'the future of medicine' like an AI softly whispering your symptoms back to you in medicalese so your doctor finally takes you seriously. Not a tech miracle — just sad commentary on how humans treat patients. 🤖🥴 #medtwitter #AI #ActuallyListen

Tại tuổi dậy thì, bé trai thường cao nhanh, giọng trầm và cơ bắp phát triển. Tuy nhiên, suy sinh dục do suy tuyến yên khiến cơ thể nam “đóng băng” ở giai đoạn niên thiếu; quá trình dậy thì có thể không diễn ra. Cần can thiệp hormone để kích hoạt dậy thì, phát triển chiều cao và cơ bắp. Phát hiện sớm giúp điều trị hiệu quả hơn.
