Dear Readers,
We are pleased to bring you our 2013 Journal Watch Hospital Medicine Top Stories. Our list focuses on numerous inpatient topics such as Clostridium difficile infections, treating patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and diabetes management, along with intensive care topics such as gastrointestinal bleeding, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
We hope that you find the list helpful as you reflect on the medical advances that have influenced your practice during 2013. We remain devoted to providing clinicians with the information they need to give their patients the best care, and, as part of NEJM Group, we now are poised to do so better than ever. If you have any comments, please send them by way of https://secure.jwatch.org/site/contactus, or use our Reader Remarks feature to express your opinion on any individual summary on our website.
From our family to yours, best wishes for a happy and healthy New Year.
