I took a few months off. (Well, not so much off, but as stuck in other EBM rabbit holes.) I am sure some were happy for the empty inbox, but if you enjoy nerdy conversation about subpar medical research, this is your luck day.
Intubation
24 posts
Back for another month of interesting, arcane, important, or baffling articles. As we enter the winter in the Northern hemisphere, and I have little interest in heading outside, I will probably spend more time reading, so these write ups might get longer for the next few months. For now, the […]
Another month, another set of articles. Some clinically relevant. Some just thought provoking. One is more than 100 years old. Yes, I look everywhere for these papers. The BroomeDocs podcast version can be found here: https://broomedocs.com/2024/10/first10em-journal-club-october-2024/
Some big and potentially practice changing articles this month. (I tend to read ridiculous articles in my free time, which I have had very little of, and so there are no intubation in outer space or highly philosophical papers about the language this month. Don’t worry, there is still a […]

Back again with another month’s worth of interesting, inane, or sometimes important emergency medicine literature. As always, podcast version on BroomeDocs or YouTube.
Years ago, this started as the “articles of the month” and was truly a monthly undertaking. In order to become more regular with the BroomeDocs podcast, I am going to try once again to make this a monthly endeavor, although that might mean fewer articles in each edition. For the […]
A true rarity: An RCT demonstrating a mortality benefit, but is it too good to be true? Matchett G, Gasanova I, Riccio CA, Nasir D, Sunna MC, Bravenec BJ, Azizad O, Farrell B, Minhajuddin A, Stewart JW, Liang LW, Moon TS, Fox PE, Ebeling CG, Smith MN, Trousdale D, Ogunnaike […]
Another month, another collection of (hopefully) interesting medical publications. When trial results are too good to be true, think fraud? Sheldrick, K. Evidence of Fabricated Data in a Vitamin C trial by Paul E Marik et al in CHEST. Available at: https://kylesheldrick.blogspot.com/2022/03/evidence-of-fabricated-data-in-vitamin.html This is the first time I have ever […]
