#GeriMedJC: November 28, 2014

The two articles critically appraised during  #GeriMedJC on November 28 were:

Marcantonio ER, Ngo LH, O'Connor M, Jones RN, Crane PK, Metzger ED, Inouye SK. 3D-CAM: Derivation and Validation of a 3-Minute Diagnostic Interview for CAM-Defined Delirium: A Cross-sectional Diagnostic Test Study. Ann Intern Med. 2014 Oct 21;161(8):554-61.

Ensrud KE, Taylor BC, Peters KW, Gourlay ML, Donaldson MG, Leslie WD, Blackwell TL, Fink HA, Orwoll ES, Schousboe J. Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Study Group. Implications of expanding indications for drug treatment to prevent fracture in older men in United States: cross sectional and longitudinal analysis of prospective cohort study. BMJ. 2014 Jul 3;349:g4120. 

What a great discussion!  Thanks especially to the international expert involvement from @A_MacLullich for the delirium discussion and to local expert involvement from @AngelaMCheung for the osteoporosis discussion.

There were more impressions and participants compared to the last #GeriMedJC! Let's keep this growing! This is what Symplur analytics had to say about the November tweet chat:
