“Children with… open fractures, partial amputations, open chest wounds, horrendous lacerations… and burns. And that was every day.” Dr Deborah Harrington recently spent 2 weeks in a Gaza hospital. “I feel ashamed and shocked that we’re doing this to fellow humans,” she told me.


Religion is innocent of these crimes.


You do not have to be Palestinian or Muslim to feel the pain. You only have to be human. Remember: we will have to answer for our deeds when we meet our Creator on Judgement Day.

DOACS are better than warfarin for pulmonary embolism. The ONLY time warfarin is used instead of DOACs in pulmonary embolism is in the setting of...? Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH)!


Tumor lysis syndrome can happen with chemo AND radiation. Not just chemo!


Carcinoid directly causes vitamin B3 loss. Niacin deficiency is the KEY to order HIAA for diagnosis.


Cirrhosis (with or without ascites) + Upper GI bleed = Antibiotics for 7-days
