Distinguished professor Victor Nizet (@nizet.bsky.social) spoke to @nbcnews.com about the recent CDC study in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) showing that invasive #strep infections have more than doubled in the U.S. over the past nine years. Story link ➡️ rebrand.ly/ab029b

NBC News Invasive strep infections have more than doubled in the U.S., CDC study finds. "Within 24 to 48 hours you could have very, very rapid deterioration. [Cases can transition from' "seeming like a routine flue-like illness to rushing the patient to the ICU, fearing for their recovery."

A new study co-authored by Professor Pieter Dorrestein shows that sending microbes to space may improve #astronaut health—and could inform care in ultra-clean environments on Earth such as hospitals and submarines ➡️ rebrand.ly/85irwwj #BehindEveryBreakthrough @pieterdorrestein.bsky.social

Here you will digest the complex information about dietary hyperoxaluria and learn what an anti-nutrient like oxalate is doing in our salad. Beware of oxalate nephropathy as it can cause or exacerbate chronic kidney disease! #NephMadness bit.ly/NM25OxalateOffenders

For patients on dialysis who develop a DVT or PE, are you using apixaban? Are you employing a loading dose (10 mg bid) and standard dose (5 mg bid) or a reduced dose 2.5 mg bid?

I’m presenting on Anticoagulation in CKD. We need to do better studying the PK of high risk drugs in vulnerable dialysis dependent patients. PK studies of <10 patients are not enough for our source of drug exposure data. Hope you can attend. ucsd.cloud-cme.com/course/cours...

Ok a third bleetorial or skeetorial of another preprint. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... in this case Nina, our exposome expert, Kine, our expert pharmacist, Corinna, the MS/MS guru, wanted to identify medication exposures from untargeted metabolomics data. Why? - aren’t there good medical records?
