A.I. generated clinic notes from ambient out-patient visits helps clinicians in many ways, across 6 health systems jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

My latest Substack: As OpenEvidence sprinted past UpToDate to become medicine's best AI-enabled point-of-care tool, I've been waiting for UTD's response. Now it's here, raising fascinating questions about which knowledge base should be our source of truth. robertwachter.substack.com/p/medicines-...

Dr. Amanda Ombrello talking about autoinflammatory diseases

Always great to hear Dr. Marcela Ferrada speak about relapsing polychondtitis.

"LLMs have "dead reasoning zones" — areas in their weights where logic doesn't work. Humans have dead knowledge zones (things we don't know), but not dead reasoning zones. Asking questions outside the training distribution is almost like an adversarial attack on the model."

Retrospective review of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and BMI≥27 prescribed GLP-1RA (semaglutide or tirzepatide) showed improved disease activity & cardiovascular risk factors vs controls. Nearly one-third of GLP-1RA group discontinued during study period ACROR doi.org/10.1002/acr2... #Medsky

Understanding why hallucinations happen gives ways to avoid them. I expect this will happen quickly (like everything else in AI).

I've wanted this feature for a while and hope all the models add this soon.

Have been thinking about doing something with #RheumJC. Seems like something like Discord or Slack could be more useful for a journal club chat. (Or others, like Telegram, Whatsapp). Anyone have preferences?

So far the best use of AI in medicine is ambient documentation. I’ve tried several and currently using one called Heidi Health. After some setup tweaks, it reduces my documentation time probably 80%. Article about this on @rheumnow.bsky.social: rheumnow.com/news/ambient...

I updated this so that you don't need to modify permissions via Terminal. Will look into putting this on the Chrome Web Store.

I updated website for The COVID–19 Global Rheumatology Alliance so that the full GRA curriculum vitae is on the main page: rheum-covid.org

I made a Chrome extension to save the current tab (or text selection) to OmniFocus. github.com/psufka/chrom... For whatever reason, Google removed prior extensions from the Chrome Store that did this, so you'll need to install this using dev mode, but the instructions are pretty straightforward.
