Can body fat promote chronic gut inflammation? A study by #CharitéBerlin suggests it can: fat tissue not only stores energy, but may also worsen inflammation in the gut. This could help explain why severe overweight raises Crohn’s disease risk.

Help, my AI has a delirium 😵💫
Last week I asked an AI "who is Simon Mooijaart?" It gave me a confident, detailed answer... about someone else entirely 🙃
As a geriatrician, this instantly reminded me of delirium - a condition I see daily. Both AI and delirium can produce convincing, yet completely wrong realities.
🧵 Thread below on why this matters for healthcare... (1/3)

🧠 Hohe Wirksamkeit, wenig Nebeneffekte: Eine neuartige Zelltherapie, entwickelt von Forschenden der #CharitéBerlin, soll eine schwere Form der autoimmunen Gehirnentzündung künftig behandelbar machen. Dank Unterstützung der #EKFStiftung kann sie nun die letzte Hürde zur klinischen Studie nehmen. 👇

[3/5] Im Projekt „FLIM-Akne“ sollen Akne-spezifische Bakterien in der #Haut mit Hilfe der Zwei-Photonen-FLIM Technik sichtbar gemacht und resistenzfrei per Fern-UVC -Strahlung eingedämmt werden. Projektpartner an der #chariteberlin ist das das Centrum für Experimentelle und Angewandte Physiologie der Haut (CCP).

CW: CW talking about nosebleed on waking up
Ok, so... sometimes I wake up to a nosebleed in the middle of the night or sometime in the morning. (My morning can be early day for my timezone or 8 to 12 hours after I fell asleep -- or both! For once.)
Today's fun was: both nostrils, a blood clot (sized the area of my middle finger nail or slightly more), and I am STILL spitting blood hours later.
The spit ups are the area of my pinkie finger nail. I spit them up every 5 or 10 minutes.I'm pretty sure this was a posterior nose bleed, judging from where the itchy congestion feeling is, since the nose part stopped. (Posterior means toward back; anterior means towards nose.) It feels like it's way at the back of my throat, maybe near my uvula.
Period soon, so maybe I should take some iron pills. At least the Kyleena IUS coil (omfg?!) reduces heavy period flow a bit. Mirena IUS coil can stop periods, 'Amenorrhea', due to more progestogen in it. I love that, but I didn't realise a lower dose one was available, so the mood alterations should be better this time, too.

Holy shit. LITERALLY JUST BELIEVE WOMEN AND AFAB PEOPLE WHAT THE FUCK
https://medicalxpress.com/news/2017-04-symptoms-cystitis-bacterial-infection-negative.html
(More generally believe femmes too, but I'm not sure how to word this in a way that doesn't overly emphasise length of urethra, although AFAIK that is the main factor for the infections, but not the societal stigma.)

On a mission to cure #HIV: Prof. Christian Gaebler, an HIV researcher at #CharitéBerlin and @bih_charite, aims to find out why the immune systems of some people with HIV can keep the virus in check themselves – and wants to devise new treatments based on the results. He has now received an #ERC Starting Grant for his work. Congratulations! 👏

A lot of well meaning advice is given after orthopaedic fractures in older people.
Non weight bearing for a prolonged period can result in a person never walking again. Could we sometimes do better?

Improving treatment of #MS: An international consortium headed by #CharitéBerlin plans to develop an #AI-supported online platform that can predict the course of multiple sclerosis on an individual basis to make it easier to identify the best treatment for specific patients. @IHI 🇪🇺 is providing almost 10 million euros to support the project.

#Dementia is a global problem. Over 50 million people worldwide currently live with dementia. This number is projected to increase to over 150 million by the year 2050.
It is one of the leading causes of disability and dependency among the older #population worldwide.
Although it is a global issue, low and middle-income countries are disproportionately affected. These countries are home to approximately 60% of dementia patients, and this figure is expected to rise to 71% by 2050. It also has a disproportionate impact on #women, besides the #labor of #caregiving.
We believe that dementia and cognitive decline are normal parts of #aging, but they are NOT.
Currently, there is no cure for dementia. Risk reduction is the best method that we have to address the projected prevalence and incidence of dementia with population #ageing.
There are many online resources to build your knowledge of the major risk factors for dementia and to learn about the #interventions and various initiatives for the #prevention of cognitive impairment.
I will be posting the resources I come across, and likewise please share any resources that you have, so that we can all better educate ourselves about dementia.

#HCWvsHunger🍎 starts tomorrow so using #MyFirstToot to intro myself and @EShaughnessyMD as #KidVengers captains on #MedMastodon 🦸🏻♀️🦸♀️
No GIFs sadly, but will still keep it fun and try to out-raise all the better paid teams 😜

And that’s learning objective 1, pseudohyperkalemia done! Let me know if you have feed back #nephsim #nephmastodon #medmastodon

I posted a poll on the bird app a few days ago regarding tweetorial/tootorial topics, and #hyperkalemia won. The #tootorial will be published in stages, with each set of toots covering a learning objective. It’s catered to #medical_students and first-year #residents. This is my first proper contribution to #medmastodon, and #nephmastodon, so constructive feedback is appreciated! This will be cross-posted on the bird app as well. Here’s the first one!

@speechwoman @CarolineBowen this *is* #QuiteInteresting! I was wondering what delete and redraft would look like. I also found out that diff instances have their own emojis. I'm very jealous of #Medmastodon emojis.
