The Third Annotation of a Case of Identity
So often in modern medicine we mistake science for truth. In doing so we have become enamored with the p-value and view it as the major determinant of relevance in scientific inquiry. An almost arbitrary selected value of 0.05 is independently responsible for defining what is considered beneficial, and what will be discarded as medical […]
Dear NEJM: We both know that conflicts of interest matter.
0 Introduction 0 Recently the New England Journal of Medicine launched a media campaign challenging the negative perception of industry conflicts of interests (COI). This was surprising, because it is the opposite of what editors of the NEJM have previously reported (see above books by former NEJM editors, published in 2004 and 2005). Big pharma […]
A Case of Identity Part Two
Our standards for acceptable benefit of antiplatelet agents in the management of ACS have become deplorably low. When ISIS-2 was first published we defined success only by aspirin’s ability to affect mortality. The number commonly cited, 2.4%, only describes aspirin’s absolute benefit to decrease death (1). In the one trial that examined its properties to […]
Pulmcrit – Renoresuscitation, vasopressin, vepinephrine, and VANISH
My goals during sepsis resuscitation focus largely on preservation of renal function and maintence of a reasonable fluid balance (renoresuscitation). The kidney is one of the most fragile organs, which may be rapidly injured by hypoperfusion. Renal failure correlates closely with mortality, participating in a vicious spiral of multi-organ failure. Alternatively, if you can save the kidneys, you’re likely to save the patient too. In this context, any beneficial effect of vasopressin on renal function could be helpful.
