For hospitalized patients with opioid use disorder, risk of patient-directed discharge (PDD) was reduced by 29% with each additional 10mg of methadone given within the first 24 hours of care. ja.ma/4rYPtVK

We recently shared our findings describing differences in clinical evaluation for mpox during the 2022 epidemic. Our study examined adherence to CDC guidelines for the care of persons with suspected mpox.

WINNER! Milton W. Hamolsky Awards are presented to junior faculty whose abstracts are "the most outstanding among those submitted to the national meeting." Congrats, Dr. Gupta.🏆 #SGIM24 #HopkinsGIM

New in @JHospMedicine: IM residents were twice as likely to sit at the bedside on units w/ folding chairs. Patients were also more likely to say that residents spent enough time at the bedside + checked for understanding on units with chairs 🪑. …mpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jh…

When my Medicaid patients learn that I study the role of psychedelic therapies in SUD Tx, they often ask when they'll be available. The answer: it depends. Grateful to share this @JAMANeuro perspective on aligning psychedelics research with health equity. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Risk Factors for Hospitalization and Effect of Immunosuppression on Clinical Outcomes Among an Urban Cohort of Patients With Mpox 🔓 Open Access bit.ly/3GRj6mV via @willgarneau

Study in @OFIDJournal (bit.ly/3RtlBBV) by @JHMed_ID, @JHUPath, @JohnsHopkinsDOM & @HopkinsMedicine Emerg Med shows immunosuppression is risk factor for hospitalization with #mpox. Infection in vulnerable populations can be fatal; merits intensive monitoring & treatment.

Thank you to the research team at Johns Hopkins. I look forward to more research to inform practice in order to best serve patients

Yesterday we published a study of outcomes for patients with mpox infections during the 2022 outbreak. Immunosuppression was a strong risk factor for hospitalization.

Congratulations to one of our great Hospitalists @ANiranjanAzadi who was just named Physician of the Year for the @SocietyHospMed MD Chapter!
