Our students @harvardmed @TuftsMedSchool were wondering if there were opportunities for med student networking at #DDW2024. If not, maybe at a future DDW? @DDWMeeting

Congrats @GuadagnoliLivia and team! So proud of you!
Our paper is out in @Gut_BMJ ! We challenge the belief that psych sxs are exclusive to #DGBI. Using Bayesian, frequentist, & machine learning approaches, we show psych doesn’t discriminate between reflux phenotypes along the functional-organic #GERD spectrum. #Gastropsych

More P-CABs! Now moving on to tegoprazan to rapidly treat erosive #esophagitis from Dr Shin and colleagues - slightly better than lansoprazole at 2 weeks, much better at 4 weeks, and also for severe esophagitis #gerd #reflux #DDW2023
