Journal-Clubbing Our Way Through Internal Medicine
Do you also find it hard to follow the medical literature?
Newsletters with tables of contents are hard to get through after having written all your notes and maybe having done a chart dissection.
Welcome to IM Journal Club!
Our mission: to guide you through some of the most interesting internal medicine studies published in the last few weeks and months that you WOULD have liked to or SHOULD have heard about
Target groups: physicians and other clinicians in general internal or family medicine – hospital medicine and primary care – or in an internal medicine subspecialty; biostatisticians, epidemiologists, or data scientists; journal club enthusiasts!
Hidden agenda: to shed some lights on the studies’ methods AND on the context (what was known before, how do the new results change things – so what does this all mean?). We will give you episodes with primers on particularly difficult methods.
We will come out with a new episode every one to two weeks - we'll upload early on Fridays - so you can listen on your commute or on the weekend.
Please subscribe in your favorite podcast app or to our YouTube channel .
Please let us know what we can do better, or what new study we could cover: You can leave a review in your podcasting app, a comment on YouTube, or drop us a line at hello@imjournalclub.com
We are also on social; our email newsletter will be on Twitter: https://twitter.com/IMJournalClub

The NordICC Study is the first randomized controlled trial to test colonoscopy as a screening modality for colorectal cancer. The effect of colonoscopy was lower than previously thought.
We talk with the P.I., Dr. Michael Bretthauer, what to make of the study and whether (and in which areas) we should remain doubtful. Dr. Bretthauer is a professor of medicine at the University of Oslo.
