Excellent work from PROFILE supporting top down treatment. Really fantastic clinical trial.
Also fascinating that the CD8 biomarker, which was so impressive in observational work, showed no signal for utility at all. Adds to the cautionary tales about biomarkers.

Twitter in general, and #MedTwitter specifically, has gone of the deep end.
My feed is dominated by engagement-farming accounts sharing threads and images, adverts, and narcissistic self-promoters.
#MedTwitter is 80% anger at PAs.
Most of the fun chats have gone.

A brief window of light with @jfnephlolz returning for more interesting chat and some great poems (thank you!), but it's really not enough to keep me here.
I am tapping out until Spring - here's hoping for some improvement.
