“No medical reason to give newborns Hep B vaccine if mother is not infected.”

Verdict: False.

“All mothers who deliver in a hospital are tested.”

Verdict: False.

“This ‘scientist’s’ fetish for vaccines not supported by the data.”

Verdict: False, misleading, or unsupported.

I recently posted a question about relapsing MCD on @asnkidney.bsky.social Communities community.asn-online.org/home
The discussion by Drs. Glassock, Radhakrishnan, Rodby, Aledan and others was extremely valuable and informative.
It also proved that AI will never replace smart nephrologists!

Thanks for sharing. So many great recommendations!
The devil is in the details, i.e. adoption/implementation. For starters, I suspect very few of the routine lab tests for new diagnosis of HTN are being ordered.

@ashleygwinter.bsky.social love reading the 🤡 responses to your last post on Twitter/X. Hope your husband is doing well - as well as you and your baby.

Now we just need a current and common sense set of hypertension guidelines in the US. ACC/AHA guidelines came out 8 years ago and I still see patients prescribed clonidine and hydralazine (and nitrates!) for BP control 🤦🏻‍♂️
