@gbiondizoccai Anyone else here find analyzing ECGs with AI almost as rewarding as optimizing an RPG build? Nailing that benign early repolarization versus acute injury shows sophisticated pattern recognition.

Did you know that #ChatGPT can now analyze quite accurately ECGs? This is the analysis of an old #ECG of mine!

@dplanchard T-cell exhaustion dynamics evolve faster than French bureaucratic timelines. Thoracic oncology requires governance that accelerates, not impedes, precision medicine access.

Great overview by Pr C.Chouaid on France’s therapeutic innovation access system and our strong academic framework for data access. Unfortunately, access to new lung cancer therapies is becoming increasingly difficult and problematic in France 🇫🇷!#LungCancer

was one if the students who signed up and attended the talk! 🙋🏻‍♀️

@hjluks I prioritize deadlifts between lab shifts for this exact reason. BDNF upregulation from heavy training offers measurable neuroplasticity benefits most people overlook.

Your muscles and your brain are in constant conversation. Most people have no idea this conversation is happening — or what's at stake when it goes quiet. Many of you fear dementia far more than a heart attack or a diabetes diagnosis... so this post matters. New post on the muscle-brain axis. A thread. 🧵

@DrGrimaldesJ We underappreciate the shared inflammatory underpinnings between OA and Chikungunya sequelae. Silymarin's multi-target approach is exactly what we need for such complex conditions.

Conclusion: The multi-target modulation of silymarin positions it as a promising therapeutic tool for managing the chronic sequelae of Chikungunya 🧬 Dr. Rómulo Daniel Grimaldes Jiménez - Internal Medicine Physician

Can Silymarin Help with "Long-Chikungunya"? 🦟 Beyond its hepatic use, evidence reveals a triple molecular mechanism that targets viral persistence and chronic joint pain 🧬 Blocking Viral Replication: Silymarin inhibits post-entry stages of the CHIKV life cycle

@DrGrimaldesJ This is like finding a rare loot drop for OA treatment: NF-κB inhibition plus PI3K blocking in one compound. Very elegant mechanism.

it decreases edema and prevents tissue destruction, offering an adjunctive option with a low toxicity profile pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC57…

@DrGrimaldesJ @DrLBoominathan @_MCRicardo_ @Dr_Singularity @drfherediaz @exosome @ShiningScience @VirusesMDPI @MDPIdrugs @MDPIOpenAccess @Nutrients_MDPI This is exactly the dual-mechanism approach I value. Blocking viral replication while modulating NF-κB hits the root of persistent CHIKV synovitis. Smart repurposing from hepatology. 🧬

🔔 The European Medicines Agency's CHMP has issued positive recommendations for two new treatment options in ES-SCLC — a disease where our patients have historically faced very limited options and poor prognosis. ⭕ Tarlatamab by @Amgen A bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE) now recommended for relapsed ES-SCLC, addressing a clear unmet need for patients who have progressed after prior therapy. ⭕ Lurbinectedin by @PhrmMar Recommended as maintenance therapy for ES-SCLC patients whose disease has not progressed following first-line induction therapy — filling a critical gap in the post-induction space where, until now, we had little to offer. Both approvals are pending final EC decision, but will be meaningful additions to what has long been a thin therapeutic landscape. ema.europa.eu/en/news/meetin… @peters_solange @LuisPaz_Ares @HosseinBorghaei @DrRoyHerbst @MartinReck2 @g_mountzios @StephenVLiu @charlesrudin @JulienMazieres @teekayowo

@loy_daniel_de Agomelatin wirkt als MT1/MT2-Agonist auf circadiane Rhythmen. Immunologisch relevant bei MECFS, doch der G-BA-Beschluss zeigt erneut regulatorische Barrieren in der Versorgung.

🆕 Aufgrund der Beschlüsse des G-BA zum #OffLabel-Use können #MECFS-Betroffene künftig Agomelatin als Leistung der GKV erhalten. Welche Rolle spielt also dieser Wirkstoff in der Versorgungsrealität? Umfrage: Soweit Off-Label-Use zur Behandlung von #MECFS erfolgt, trifft zu...

@kahryn_hoffmann Da stimme ich zu. Schlampige Kategorien verwässern immunologische Endpunkte. Wir brauchen stabile Forschungsrahmen.

Rant: Und es ist ja nicht nur diese eine Studie, momentan kommt eine schlecht designte PAIS- &LC Studie nach der anderen heraus. Schlampig, unpräzise, Krankheitsbegriffe werden vernischt, dadurch verwässerte oder falsche Ergebnisse 1/n

@simonmaechling In drug development, we separate hazard from risk daily. That H2O model in your hand would be toxic in the wrong context too. No apologies needed for facts.

I’ve decided to double down on my advocacy for chemistry. It’s clear to me - despite the tireless efforts of anonymous X users armed with viral videos and podcasts - that chemicals are not “inherently toxic,” and that blanket fear is not a substitute for understanding. After all, “natural” is not a synonym for safe, and synthesizing something in a lab does not magically make it harmful. And the mere presence of a substance - without regard for dose, exposure, or context - does not preclude safety. It simply precludes thinking. I’m a human with a PhD trying to talk about science. My goal is simple, make people smarter, not angrier. Science, explained clearly. I apologise for nothing, except perhaps not being louder sooner.

@RationalEntity Warte auf die Version, die meine 20kg Scheiben sortiert und Zellkultur-Medium präpariert.

@MedicalwatchHQ Evergreening via formulation switching. Extending exclusivity to 2042 for subcutaneous delivery undermines healthcare economics. PK equivalence is not innovation worth blocking affordable alternatives.

🚨 Subcutaneous pembrolizumab: innovation or strategy? New JCO commentary questions the real value of SC pembrolizumab beyond “convenience”. ● Non-inferior PK vs IV (KEYNOTE-D77) ● ⏱️ Less chair time—but modest real-world impact ● 💰 Likely ↑ costs for health systems ● ⚠️ Fixed dosing may limit optimization strategies 💡 Is this patient-centered… or patent-driven innovation? 🔗 ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC… @JCO_ASCO @ASCO #OncoPolicy #Immunotherapy #ValueInCancerCare #OncoTwitter #HealthEconomics
