Pasta intussusception. A well-known and potentially serious complication of penne-rigatoni interactions.

@BradSpellberg @boulware_dr While I obv share your world view on this and many things...to be fair, if you removed guns (+/- opiates) from the picture, the US healthcare value equation (life expectancy/$$ spent) wouldn't be *so* abysmal...

@boulware_dr Here’s another one. If i told you $4 trillion per year paid for healthcare for Americans, resulting in life spans that are shorter than every other wealthy nation in the world, at a cost per person that is double those other countries, would you say that’s a good value?

@AltMiddlePeds @EmpiricGame (2/2) Relatively poor PPV for flu ICD codes previously described (see refs). Unclear why outcomes worse for misclassified. But can imagine that conflation with h flu has something to do with it (h flu most often diagnosed when found from ET tube, i.e. in really sick kids).

@AltMiddlePeds @EmpiricGame (1/2) See table. Good chunk of kids get tamiflu prior to admission. And, a lot of it comes from paraflu and h flu which of course have some linguistic similarities. So, presumably hospital coder sees "parainfluenza" and mistakenly enters influenza into admin database.

@EmpiricGame you got it right! (And, misclassified kids have worse outcomes, which likely explains the apparent benefit seen in at least 4 prior studies using administrative data)

@sgdambrauskas Wow, thank you! For those interested but who do not speak Spanish - you can use the youtube translate function. With permission I might have to quote you on "don't play Nostradamus"...;)

@adamsonjon @mommimaya Another interpretation of Figure 1 is that most (over half) kids *aren’t* admitted on day 3-4. More importantly, day of admission is not the same as day of peak illness.
