Nice summary!
By Shani F. on 06. September 2018 for Differential Diagnoses – Hyperthyroidism (Thyrotoxicosis)

This is a really good overview of the previous discussions. The small mistake about radio-iodine uptake is Hashitoxicosis should be fixed, but the rest is pretty great.

 
Decent but flesh out the management
By Hamed S. on 16. March 2017 for Ischemic Stroke: Treatment

I enjoyed the series on ischaemic stroke but it would have been great to discuss in more depth the secondary management of stroke in particular blood pressure targets and agents with the most supportive evidence for use (e.g ACE-I). I also note that there was an omission about the best way to manage BP in the acutely hypertensive patient post stroke. Despite theses as always good taster of the topic. I appreciate the challenge of work that goes into producing these contents

 
Omission of subsequent investigaitons
By Hamed S. on 19. February 2017 for Differential Diagnoses – Hyperthyroidism (Thyrotoxicosis)

Good table but a discussion of subsequent investigations to further characterise the nodule is warranted. For example following up a cold nodule with U/S guided FNA . The algorithm wasn't took clear for example starting with thyroid function test, followed by iodine uptake and further imaging/biopsy
