Mycoplasma pneumonia infection may seldom lead to cold agglutinin syndrome; learn more about this association by reading @Kev_chevalier et al.'s recent paper on a French multicentre observational study doi.org/10.1002/ajh.70… #hematology

Do not routinely and randomly check for vitamin D levels. If found incidentally low, do not routinely start taking vitamin D supplements. Yes, vitamin D supplement intake increases vitamin D levels (duh!)… …but it does not impact health in any clinically meaningful way in

Peter’s Pearls in vasculitis - Dr Merkel noted: 1. Do NOT follow ANCA titers 2. Anti-PR3 ANCA more likely to relapse 3. ANCA+ EGPA behaves like GPA/MPA 4. Don’t delay is there is Pulm hemorrhage/ RPGN 5. Steroids save lives in the short term #CCRwest Dr. John Cush

🫁New in #CritCare This physiological study compares driving pressure-based vs. oxygenation-based PEEP strategies. Clinical PEEP titration showed better respiratory mechanics and lower lung stress—especially in moderate-severe ARDS. 🔗ccforum.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… Jean-Louis Vincent
