Managing Money for Medical School

(from the February 2019 ACP Internist)

The financing and affordability of a medical school education, never a cheap proposition, appear to be in a period of flux, depending on the outcome of several trends.

ACP Internist provides news and information for internists about the practice of medicine and reports on the policies, products, and activities of ACP.

Advocacy Update

ACP's Advocacy Agenda for 2019: Stabilizing Insurance Markets, Fighting Firearms Violence and Controlling Drug Costs

The 麻豆直播app is facing familiar challenges on the advocacy front as a new legislative season gets underway. However, ACP's top advocacy executive says that 2019 could also bring good news on the pharmaceutical drug cost front and that the Affordable Care Act should hold up against challenges.

The ACP Advocate is a bi-weekly e-newsletter that provides ACP members with news about public policy issues affecting internal medicine and patient care.

The graphic medicine pieces drawn by medical students in this issue show the vulnerability that they face during medical school.

Annals of Internal Medicine is the premier internal medicine academic journal published by the 麻豆直播app (ACP). It is one of the most widely cited and influential specialty medical journals in the world.

Aspirin Protects Heart Against Ischemia-reperfusion Injury Via LKB1-Sestrn2-AMPK Signaling Cascade

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a stress signaling enzyme that orchestrates the regulation of energy pathways. Intrinsic AMPK activation protects the heart against ischemic injury, but whether the pharmacologic AMPK stimulation by aspirin mitigates ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) damage is unknown.
