In 1980, DeBakey operated on the Shah of Iran. He declares success. Soon, the patient is dead. Reoperation is psychologically brutal: how bias delay truth & what might save us from the same trap. leezhaomd.org/post/the-secon… #MedTwitter #Surgery #MedEd

Ricci et al. used RCT-based modeling to assess minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy. With marginal benefit, much higher costs, laparoscopic and robotic PD were not cost-effective vs open surgery urging caution until stronger evidence emerges

El gobierno nacional demuestra que los TRABAJADORES INFORMALES (+50% del total) y los MICRONEGOCIOS (que son más del 93% del total) no le importan.
1. Los micronegocios, con márgenes mínimos de utilidad, reducirán sus empleados y se moverán más a la informalidad para sobrevivir (ya son más del 80% informales en Colombia).
2. El número de personas que ganan menos de 1 SMLV seguirá en aumento: solo en el último año aumentó en 12% en el país (mientras que los que ganan 1SMLV se reduce en ~40%)
3. El acceso a vivienda VIS y VIP será aún más difícil para los hogares.

Según el autor de este artículo, la avalancha de artículos académicos -impulsada por el famoso “publica o perece”, así como por la globalización (sobre todo China) y el modelo de negocio de las cinco grandes editoriales (Elsevier, Springer Nature, Taylor & Francis, Wiley, Sage)- está ahogando la calidad científica.
Estas editoriales ganan enormes beneficios publicando artículos académicos gracias al modelo de "open access": cobran a los investigadores (o a sus universidades) un cargo por procesamiento de artículo que suele estar entre 1.800 y 2.900 dólares por paper (hasta 11.700 en revistas top), cuando el coste real de publicarlo es solo unos 400 dólares de media. Esto les deja márgenes de beneficio del 30–40 %, similares o superiores a los de gigantes tecnológicos como Google o Microsoft. El dinero para pagar esos cargos sale casi siempre de fondos públicos: subvenciones gubernamentales (como NIH en EE.UU. o fondos europeos) y presupuestos de universidades públicas, financiados con impuestos de los ciudadanos. Así, los contribuyentes estamos pagando indirectamente beneficios privados muy altos, mientras las editoriales multiplican la cantidad de artículos publicados (un 47 % más entre 2016 y 2022) para seguir aumentando ingresos, aunque esto esté bajando la calidad y facilitando la entrada de papers fraudulentos.
El resultado es una crisis en la calidad de los artículos, un debilitamiento de la peer review, proliferación de fraudes y retractaciones masivas. La solución pasa por poner algún tope a las 5 grandes pero sobre todo por un cambio cultural: menos cantidad, más calidad, y menos presión por publicar a cualquier precio.

Forward head posture is common in the OR—but it doesn’t just strain the neck.
It triggers spinal compensation → upper & lower crossed syndromes → neck, shoulder & back pain.
This is a work-design issue, not “bad posture.”

Exciting new evidence in rectal cancer care.
A new multicenter phase 2 trial (NO-CUT) in The Lancet Oncology shows that selected patients with stage II–III pMMR/MSS rectal cancer can safely undergo watch-and-wait after TNT if they achieve a complete response.
30-month distant relapse-free survival was 95% in the non-operative group, supporting safe organ preservation.
Looking forward to insights from the leaders in the field.

Staging laparoscopy 🙈 waste of time or added value!?
🗣️ 617 Surgeons / 76 countries
⏱️ Mostly performed same session laparotomy
🧐 Useful in suspicious radiology / ⬆️ CA 19.9
👉 Does not hurt + increase staging accuracy

The whole medical publishing ecosystem (free content, free peer review, but $$ to publish/read) is a bizarre, exploitative business model.
Even if one believes clinicians owe some degree of unpaid "academic service," it’s absurd publishers profit so massively off our free labor.

Dr. jordan berlin@jordanberlin5
In 2024, Elsevier publishers, parent company of @sciencedirect reported profits of over 3 Billion pounds and @SpringerNature reported over 1.8 billion pounds of profit. All off the work we do for them for free. Hey publishers, pay for reviews.

📌Understanding infrapyloric lymph node dissection by layers
📝The infrapyloric lymph region consists of an “arterial layer” and a “venous layer”, which are attached to the vertical plane formed by the surface of the pancreatic head and the duodenal wall.
