ACP Journal Club is one of the added content features of the Annals of Internal Medicine. It summarizes some of the best new evidence in internal medicine from leading clinical journals, with a clinical impact rating, bottom-line conclusion, and commentary for each article. For example, September 2025’s issue critiques an article from Stroke answering the question, “What is the risk for intracranial hemorrhage with apixaban vs. aspirin used for ischemic stroke prevention?”
Besides the original research one would expect, other features include:
- In the Clinic – focuses on the practical management of common clinical conditions. September’s issue provides an overview of chronic kidney disease, covering diagnosis, treatment, etc.
- Annals Graphic Medicine – short, original graphic narratives on medically relevant topics, like the one from Yujin Kim, an undergraduate student at Brown University, double concentrating in Health and Human Biology and Visual Arts, on the term idiopathic
- Annals Story Slam – doctors share brief stories with an audience in video form, building on the popular Annals’ feature, “On Being a Doctor“
- Annals Consult Guys – videos of a medical consultation “talk show” featuring Drs. Howard Weitz and Geno Merli
- Beyond the Guidelines – multimedia grand rounds discussions on vexing clinical issues
Annals of Internal Medicine is available from the Capozzi Library.
