Up to 82% of pregnant surgeons experience miscarriage, preterm delivery, and intrauterine growth restriction. Occupational hazards, including prolonged standing, physical exertion, overnight shifts, and teratogenic exposure, contribute to these risks. ja.ma/4eUXVQn

🚨 Exciting news for #ACS2024! Our latest study explores how AI, specifically large language models (LLMs), can help surgical trainees. We trained trauma-focused LLMs, EAST-GPT and ACS-GPT, to tackle surgical board-style questions with expert-level accuracy! 🧠🔪 #SurgEd #AI

There’s gotta be a correlation between gym + anime + medicine. Too many of us are huge fans of atleast 2/3 😂 #MedTwitter

Interested in studying data from Planned Parenthood or any datasets from state family planning programs, particularly demographics of services. Anyone have any guidance for how I can get started? @PPAOhio @PPFA @MSFC

One year ago I was a security guard 👻 Thanks to some of these big initial supporters. Wouldn’t be where I am now!

#Browns RB Nick Chubb’s prognosis is far more optimistic than it originally appeared. Sources say he suffered a torn MCL and while there is damage to the ACL, it’s not a given it’ll need to be fully repaired. He plans on a full recovery. My story: nfl.com/news/browns-rb…

When an athlete is told to run at 85% they run faster than if they're told to run at 100%. It's called the 85% rule and here's why it works: Carl Lewis was a 9 time Olympic gold medalist who was known as a master finisher but a slow starter. He began races 2nd to last but usually ended up finishing first. It became known that he's wasn't performing at full throttle. He was going at 85% the whole time. Why 85%? When you have your best performances it's never when you're trying your hardest. Instead the task usually feels easy & effortless. Going at 85% is a mindset about relaxation & performing at a high level while being in flow. It's about pacing, form & finishing. At 85% you're not striving or straining by operating at the very limit of your ability. You have room to think, focus & adapt. Applying the 85% rule helps you balance intensity while being focused & relaxed. Here's a few example of how to do it: At work: Instead of going full throttle, take your time, release the pressure & focus. Put an emphasis on optimizing your systems & adopt a mentality of expending 85% of your mental energy towards a task. Your perception of energy is the biggest component to your productivity. In your diet: Instead of trying to be perfect aim to get 85% of your food choices right. This takes the pressure off of you and gets you away from an "all or nothing" mindset. You want to be adaptable to any situation and hitting 85% is enough to get your body in shape. In your workouts: Instead of going to failure for every exercise aim for 85% intensity so you can focus on good form & keep your body injury free. We have a rule to keep 1-2 reps in the tank when lifting and this fits perfectly into it. Keys to the 85% rule: 1) Relax 2) Focus on form 3) Set your mind to 85% intensity 4) Work just below your maximum threshold 5) Stop when you feel close to 100% of your mental/physical capacity Instead of putting the pressure by trying to go 100 aim for 85% instead. Doing so might help you unlock new levels of performance.

Reflecting on my one week of emergency medicine, I was impressed by the residents of @MetroHealth_EM who continually held each other accountable to be "teaching the med student." Really appreciated how they valued my time and presence!

This discovery has the potential to help doctors improve the ways they treat and prevent hearing loss, and the research could also have larger implications for the field of cell biology. Congratulations, and thanks, to these UVA researchers. news.virginia.edu/content/uva-sc…

Poorly controlled diabetic with recurrent perineal abscess for over a decade. Recently admitted with sepsis. Most surprising was the thickness and the epithelialization of this periurethral abscess sac!! 😶‍🌫️ Of course we'll come back to fix the stricture... @CaseUrology

@amyfaithho I had an Ortho attending ask me why the heart exists during training and the answer he was looking for…”to pump the Ancef.”

Need your gallbladder taken out electively? Too late (waiting for auth), now you’re in the ED with cholecystitis. Had a “nodule” seen on a CT, but couldn’t get a repeat scan authorized…ever? Now it’s metastatic and you’re in the ED for crippling pain. DVT? No problem, started you on blood thinners. Oh, but your insurance wouldn’t cover it? Wait for it…now you’re hypoxic with submassive PEs. You’ve been having severe migraines, and insurance requires you to do a “trial of meds” before getting a MRI. The meds don’t cut it, you’re in the ED and turns out, you have an aneurysm. And it’s bleeding. The examples go on.
