Jeffrey Epstein’s Lawyer Announces He Feels Safer as a Republican

I need a comprehensive list of medications that impair creatinine excretion
Following the publication of this study in JASN, there was an interesting correspondence (see Pabla et al JASN 2024 and authors reply Pyne et al JASN 2024). Pabla et al point out that the organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2, encoded by the SLC22A2 gene) is involved in the basolateral tubular uptake and subsequent secretion of creatinine. PPIs may inhibit OCT2 (Nies et al PLoS One 2011). So Pyne et al, in their reply, present some additional analyses that suggest that the effect of pantoprazole compared with placebo on rate of eGFR change was attenuated in patients who discontinued treatment before eGFR reassessment (−0.04 ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year, 95% CI, −0.26 to 0.17) compared with those who remained on treatment (−0.60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year, 95% CI, −0.85 to −0.34). This disparity could support a reversible effect of pantoprazole on eGFR, possibly due to inhibition of creatinine secretion, or reflect a dose-response or threshold exposure effect. The case for PPIs causing kidney churn becomes even more weaker. For a longer explanation, see Lonnie Pyne’s rounds here.
Do PPIs cause kidney damage?

"Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial: Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later."
Dave Mathews in a keffiyeh holding up signs that say STOP THE GENOCIDE and STOP KILLING CHILDREN at a concert
This is not a knock on DMB but if you had told me twenty years ago that Dave Mathews would be this outspoken on an issue that Radiohead completely shat the bed on, well... I would've been surprised!
The US used to be Gavi’s largest funder—but last year RFK Jr suspended US funding to Gavi, falsely accusing Gavi of ignoring science & spouting entirely trumped-up, baseless accusations about the organization—an organization that estimates it has saved over 20.6 million lives since the yr 2000.
9/n
It's crucial to remember that RFK Jr isn't just doing all he can to roll back vaccination & drive up childhood infectious diseases in the US but also WORLWIDE & he's especially targeting children in the lowest income countries
He has suspended US funding to Gavi, which supports global vaccination

It’s not that much money considering all the inflation he’s caused
The fact that Mamdani just seems like a cheerful normal guy who's policies are things like "we're going to tax second homes to fund pothole repairs" or whatever and yet this generates panicked responses like "This is basically Stalin's great purge turned up to eleven" is... telling. It tells things.
One of the most reprehensible humans alive
Modeling by Brooke Nichols at Boston University estimates that dismantling USAID led to 762,000 deaths, including >500,000 children
Charles Kenny & Justin Sandefur at the Center for Global Development estimate the number to be between 500,000 & 1 million
This is an 18 minute and 37 second brutal takedown and non-stop zinger-fest of a video disguised as a car review, and I'm totally here for it. I loved every moment, and nearly spat out my drink more then a couple of times. Enjoy!
I agree. Wakefield & his biggest booster—RFK Jr—have unleashed genuine horrors upon the world. I STILL find it hard to wrap my head around the fact that RFK Jr runs America’s health system, with the help of, um, PHYSICIANS like Bhattacharya, Makary, Oz & Høeg 🤯—who took an oath to “first do no harm”
I think this is the most likely explanation for what unfolded after the fact. #DonaldJChrist
