Cool study - an amp of sodium bicarbonate (50 ml 8.4%) raises sodium similar to a boils of 3% - as expected of course!

Always a solid strategy
Orban, Bolsonaro, Trump, and all the rest of these goons want you to believe they are inevitable and, once in power, invincible. They are not.
That said phosphate containing colas are not great #StoneCamp
When it comes to stones, fluids of any kind are helpful but beer and wine are particularly fine #StoneCamp
High oxaluria due to peanuts. Salted peanuts.
Note the phos.
If the 24-hr urine looks clean maybe they cheated, maybe it is an unusual stone. 2,8 dihydroxyadenine stone
A street corner, with a sign reading "Play Area & Cholera Burial Ground".
Saving for "State your mood in one image" threads.
Urine calcium goes up with glucose and caffeine loads. Learning lots at #StoneCamp
I guess you really do lose muscle mass on GLP1ra
Tremendous overlap between stone formers and non stone formers #StoneCamp
About 4% of samples they receive are rejected because patients did not follow the instructions correctly. #StoneSample
The LithoLink preservative has a set amount of K Fluoride in it. They then look at the concentration of fluoride in the aliquot to back calculate the volume! Fucking genius #StoneCamp
Asplin shows his own urine collections. He claims no one in the world has done more 24-hour urines than him. Note the tight variability of urine Cr. He is also the best at collecting 24-hr urines #StoneCamp
And stop worrying about protein intake. It doesn’t matter. #StoneCamp
Look at the N on the y axis. This is all 2-day back-to-back collections where the two collection were within 10% of each other. 20 mg/kg for men, 15 mg/kg for women #StoneCamp
Get an electronic urine pH meter! #StoneCamp
Dipstick urinal pH sucks #StoneCamp
Two consecutive urines, 25% will have at least one variable 50% different
Sundays hit different #StoneCamp
I'm at LithoLink's #StoneCamp. Asplin is explaining that the first rule of stone camp is you don't talk about stone camp. I am tweeting under table. I may get kicked out.

ASN #KidneyWk 2019 might be my favorite ASN. Epic #NephJC party. Chertow sang Give’m the Old Razzle Dazzle during the CAN session, and #Flozins were still ascending!
8 mile run this week. Longest since last summer. Felt good
I want to scream to the world that this is not who we are but we are what we do.
This is embarrassing
Dear GI How are you? Nice story about JE in NY mag. You look great on the picture. I know you are very busy flying all over the world. How was Palm Beach? I cannot wait to go down. Give me a call when you are back in NY. Have a great time! Love, Melania
