High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS): This is a man made sweetener that is cheaper to produce and actually sweeter than sugar. There are actually new commercials touting how healthy HFCS is.

There has long been an argument about pci with the modern era stents and drugs versus cabg in patients with multivessel disease and diabetes but perhaps the Freedom trial (NEJM 2012 doi:10.1056) lays this to rest where patients with multivessel disease and diabetes had better mortality and fewer CVS events at the expense of more strokes.

ALTITUDE Autopsy Shows What Went Wrong With Aliskiren
In its short lifespan the direct renin inhibitor aliskiren (a.k.a., Rasilez or Tekturna) rapidly declined from being a highly promising, first-of-its kind drug to a major failure.

Now the final results of the Aliskiren Trial in Type 2 Diabetes Using Cardiorenal Endpoints have been presented at Kidney Week 2012 in San Diego and simultaneously published in the New England Journal of Medicine. 8,561 type 2 diabetics at high risk f...

These things are very cool to me and one of the reasons I think I would enjoy the work. However, those type of things seem to overlap a lot with orthopedic surgeons. What factors decide if podiatry or ortho get called to foot trauma? Is it possible/common to work in a hospital where these injuries are always left to ortho?

Lay perspectives on hypertension and drug adherence: systematic review of qualitative research
Conclusions Non-adherence to hypertension treatment often resulted from patients’ understanding of the causes and effects of hypertension; particularly relying on the presence of stress or symptoms to determine if blood pressure was raised. These beliefs were remarkably similar across ethnic and geographical groups; calls for culturally specific education for individual ethnic groups may therefore not be justified. To improve adherence, clinicians and educational interventions must better understand and engage with patients’ ideas about causality, experiences of symptoms, and concerns about drug side effects.
