What do you do when most trials suggest benefit for an intervention, but then a new trial suggests harm? We thought steroids in pneumonia was a settled question, but REMAP-CAP had other plans!

We also review a new RCT for BP targets in patients with hypertension and diabetes, a new aldosterone synthase inhibitor for hypertension, and reduced dose apixaban for cancer-associated thrombosis.
