Saying the product of the kidneys is urine is like saying the product of a factory is pollution. Urine is a by-product. The product is homeostasis COI: link👇🏼

I have personally served on the ASN Council nomination committee as a private practice nephrologist. I do think if we can rally behind a private practice physician- we will reach our goals quickly! @kidney_boy I hope we can achieve that goal soon!

The first Democrat physician in the senate. And she’s a pediatrician. Love this for us bc we’ve had enough doctors in high office as enemies of social progress! (And for her cuz she’s probably getting a raise.)

I believe this to be absolutely true. But that is not a methodologic flaw in the study.
This is not the first time this has been found. I suspect it is true. It must merely be an association with gender. What is it that actually translates into better outcomes and how can we teach capture that for patients?
Even conceding these identity studies are true, which given quasi randomization here I do believe, I still don't care for these studies
Scores political and cultural points of the time but advances little else. The opposite could never be published
You can't modify the exposure in practice except through discrimination
There will be more variation within men and women than between. Yes there are amazing male doctors and lousy female ones, and vice versa
And it leaves the elusive question of what is good doctoring unmeasured, which is the core implications of this line of work. Skip the gender part and let's figure that out

Forget the afterparties. The coolest #KidneyWk gathering is still #NephJC 🎤
Being there for a live @FreelyFiltered recording was a whole different vibe. Be honest... which LBCT already has a half-written draft sitting in your notes?

One of my M2 medical students has died. Terrible
