Besides compensation, Dr. Steer points out: "Some fellows I see are very interested in 'work-life' balance and believe that nephrology can't accommodate that interest. I'd tell them that although nephrologists generally work fairly hard and take care of sick people, work-life balance is absolutely attainable in this specialty. I believe work-life balance is more a function of the physician than the specialty.

The top 7 donors in the 2024 election — all GOP — gave a combined $1B to buy Trump a second term.

It's a gigantic amount of money in total — but it's just pocket change to them.

We must get Big Money out of politics.

No one from either party should be able to buy an election.

Usefulness of UPCR Measurements During AKI | Docwire News Researchers assessed whether changes in UPCR during severe AKI episodes are associated with how serum creatinine levels change at the time of sample collection for UPCR estimation.

UPCR measurements during AKI may lack accuracy due to reduced urine creatinine in the denominator. But are UPCRs measured during AKI hospitalizations still useful? #nephrology #nephsky #kidney #upcr #acutekidneyinjury

“They are treating her like a terrorist,” said Merhi. “It is ridiculous. She is an accomplished doctor, she is treating patients, who is treated like a criminal. And she is following all the rules. She is not doing anything wrong. And her Visa is valid.”

This is beyond fucked up

UPDATE: A federal judge broadened the scope of an earlier temporary restraining order, blocking Trump from deporting anyone under the Alien Enemies Act while the case proceeds.

Flights carrying Venezuelan immigrants the DHS attempted to deport were ordered to turn around and return to the U.S.

If Vladimir Putin himself had invaded America and come up with a plan to destroy our economy and wreck the cohesion of our society, he could not have done better than Donald Trump has done on his own with the help of Elon Musk.
