From MedPage Today:
- Duplication Error May Make Giants. A duplication in a short stretch of the X chromosome may be responsible for a specific type of gigantism seen in children.
- Lab Work Moves More Quickly to Clinical Setting. A second investigational drug in the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) inhibitor class has demonstrated activity in acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
- ICH Outcome Better with Early Rehab. Starting rehabilitation within 48 hours of an intracerebral hemorrhage was associated with improved survival and functional outcomes at 6 months.
- Unnecessary Chest X-Rays on Kids Common. Too many pediatric chest X-rays are done unnecessarily.
