Talk just now on risk of endocarditis (heart valve infection) in Staph aureus bloodstream infection. Various scoring systems exist, and the worst was the one developed by machine learning, which omitted several major risk factors.

TL:DR don't let a computer hallucinate your clinical tools.

Some fascinating bone and joint infection cases in this session - Bacteroides in a neonate, tularaemia in a rural Spanish patient's hip, and a severe multifocal Burkholderia osteomyelitis in tibia and ankle requiring extensive drainage and debridement.

The last one, exposed through farming in the Philippines, recovered superbly, as shown by a video of him dad dancing with his son, just 12 weeks after surgical drainage.

Interesting update from EUCAST this morning: there are newer beta-lactamase inhibitors in development which not only break down bacterial enzymes that stop beta-lactam antibiotics (e.g penicillin) from working, but also have direct bactericidal activity against the bacteria. Shield and sword dual wield, in effect. #ESCMID #ESCMID2026

Patient priorities are vital. For instance, a younger fitter person may not mind some limited side-effects if it gets them out of the hospital and back to work / life more promptly.

A frail older person with little reserve might instead prioritise treatment with the lowest risk of side-effects, which could be more problematic in the long run, even if treatment takes longer.

Really interesting session this morning on outcome measurements in antibiotic therapy: mortality, or simple "cure vs not cure" measures are not always useful.

For instance, two patients might be cured with antibiotics, but one might suffer a life-threatening adverse event (e.g. C diff) and spend much longer in hospital, with functional decline and long-term consequences.

Alternative, stratified outcomes are sometimes more helpful.

Today, I experienced, simultaneously, sunshine so bright it hurt my eyes, semi-sleet that stung my cheeks, and a penetrating wind that gave me an ice-cream headache.

Two minutes later I had to take off my jumper because the sun was too hot.

Never change, Scotland.

"We could row a boat out to where the river meets the sea. What if we get caught in a whirlpool? And what about sharks? The only sharks round here are basking sharks. They might swallow us whole and we will get slowly digestived and turned into poo. And our blood will turn into pee."

- 5yo's pre-bed stream of consciousness.
