Proud to be part of this pivotal study on persistent severe #AKI in critically ill patients, alongside leading experts in the field. Excited to contribute to research that pushes the boundaries of our understanding of this critical condition!

Love these maps. Puts it into a perspective
Honored and humbled to have been a part of the faculty for the #SCCM #AI PreCourse at #SCCM2025. Grateful for the opportunity to discuss critical role of #AI in resource-constrained settings. Exciting times ahead for innovation in critical care!
Mount Sinai #ICCM alumni dinner at #SCCM2025. Privileged to work with such amazing colleagues and so proud of the spectacular achievements of our fellows- both past and present
Still time left to join our 2-day #pocus program @ SW Nephrology conference in Phoenix 3/20-3/21 @NKFArizona!

$125 discount for trainees!
Guaranteed surfeit of hemodynamic assessment!

Do they identify reasons for increased morality? Delayed labs, orders, chart review etc? #NephJC
Shows the importance of built in redundancies in IT systems (including paper based downtime procedures) #NephJC
That’s like the old times. We do that occasionally during EHR downtimes. Never fun #NephJC
Ankit Sakhuja, intensivist/nephrologist from NYC #nephjc
We have had patients on ECMO
Can carefully developed electronic alerts help with management of #AKI? Yes, but developing an effective alert is both an art and science. Read about our experience in #ACI www.thieme-connect.com/products/ejo...
@girishnadkarni.bsky.social #informatics
Had so much fun discussing how #AI is shaping medicine and sharing the work from our lab at #apexpathshala @akforg.bsky.social @girishnadkarni.bsky.social
Pleasure to be a part of the phenomenal conference #apexpathshala organized by @akforg.bsky.social
Prompting strategies
Zero shot perform a task without examples
Adding examples increases the accuracy
Encourage the model think aloud or follow a logical sequence
Add the prompt “lets think step by step”
Provide context
Who are you talking to
On to transformer models. Much more complex.
Need inputs not only from right now, but from previous time. Short term memory. Recurrent neural network.
What about long-term memory: long Short-Term Memory Network.
Is the issue that there is less demand for nephrologists (and hence we should decrease fellowship spots) or is there a decreased demand for nephrology?
Are #LLMs as good as human coders in extracting ICD codes? Of 6 LLMs we tested, GPT-4 achieved highest agreement with human coder but still only at 15.2%. Read our full study in #ACI at - pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39608761/ @girishnadkarni.bsky.social
#coffeewiththeexperts
Get ready to know more about #AI in nephrology. Are you up-to-date with the new-age tech that keeps changing every quarter moon?

Excited to share our review article, which provides a step-by-step comprehensive overview of reinforcement learning tailored specifically for clinicians, presented in a clear and non-technical manner - www.nature.com/articles/s41... @girishnadkarni.bsky.social #AI #RL

This is great work @chriscarrollmd.bsky.social As the world in general came to a standstill then, curious if you might have access to air pollution data during that time and it’s effect on decrease in asthma exacerbations then?
I agree that rates of ODS are low in general (which is good), but if the pathophysiology ties it to rate of correction of Na, then it should be a #neverevent
That’s the primary issue with retrospective data. But it is likely what happened as clinicians are usually concerned more about patients that are sicker.
This is a great figure Joel. So clinicians were much more concerned for (and hence corrected the serum Na level much slower) for patients that were likely much sicker (and hence had higher mortality)
