    TLDR Monitor methotrexate side effects, research cannabis treatments, and use mycophenolate mofetil for lupus nephritis.
    The "Annals for Educators - 17 March 2020" covered several key topics in clinical practice and medical education. It included a randomized trial on the adverse effects of low-dose methotrexate, highlighting the importance of monitoring for potential side effects such as megaloblastic anemia. A systematic review on pharmacotherapy for cannabis use disorder (CUD) found no FDA-approved treatments, emphasizing the need for further research. A case report on the Hamman sign provided a teaching tool with an audio recording of abnormal chest sounds. An essay on handling agitated patients discussed the emotional challenges faced by healthcare providers. Additionally, a historical perspective on hospital wards was presented, and educational questions on methotrexate-induced anemia and treatment for lupus nephritis were included, recommending mycophenolate mofetil for the latter.
