Highlights from ACP Internist and ACP Hospitalist

ACP Internist January 2017

  • Act early to counter osteoporosis
    After decades of promotion on ways to guard against osteoporosis, recent studies indicate that late-life bone resiliency has been eroding, and newly released clinical guidelines suggest diagnostic and treatment strategies to counteract that slide among women.
     
  • Feeding nutrition into your practice
    Internists routinely ask patients about smoking and drinking, but should they also ask about eating habits?
     
  • Medical schools respond to the opioid epidemic
    Sales of prescription opioids and deaths from prescription opioid overdoses have nearly quadrupled in the United States since 1999, according to the CDC.
