    Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Disease Edition: Hepatic Inflammation and Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH)

    Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Alina M. Allen, M.D., M.S. Fat deposits in the liver are quite common and many individuals have no idea they have the condition. A minority of those individuals will develop an associated hepatic inflammation. It’s not entirely clear why some progress to this state, although there are some known risk factors. Steatohepatitis is a potentially serious health problem and can lead to end-stage liver disease. It’s also associated with cardiovascular disease and all of its complications. The topic for today’s podcast is Hepatic Inflammation and Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis. My guest is Alina M. Allen, M.D., M.S., from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at the Mayo Clinic. What are the risk factors for this health problem? Should we be screening patients for its presence and how should it be managed. These are just some of the topics we’ll discuss in this podcast.

    Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Disease Edition: hs-CRP and Cardiovascular Disease

    Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Regis I. Fernandes, M.D. Inflammation commonly occurs as a response to injury or infection but can lead to damage when it develops in healthy tissue. It’s now known that inflammation plays a key role in the development of cardiovascular disease. It produces damage to the endovascular arterial cells allowing plaque to form within the artery leading to stenosis, thereby reducing coronary blood flow. What initiates the inflammatory response as it develops in otherwise healthy arteries? How should we use the hs-CRP in measuring inflammation in cardiovascular disease? Does our management of cardiovascular disease result in a decrease in hs-CRP? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Regis I. Fernandes, M.D., a preventive cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “hs-CRP and Cardiovascular Disease”.

    Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Disease Edition: Type 2 Diabetes as an Inflammatory Disease

    Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Vinaya Simha, M.B.B.S., M.D. Type 2 Diabetes is a commonly seen condition in a general medical practice. It’s estimated that over 38 million adults have the disease. When we think of diabetes, we think of a metabolic condition with patients who have hyperglycemia, often overweight, and occasionally have renal, eye and/or neurologic complications. But, do we ever think of diabetes as an inflammatory disease? How is inflammation associated with diabetes? What are the mediators of inflammation in diabetics and when we treat diabetes, are we reducing the associated inflammation in addition to lowering blood glucose? These are questions I’ll be asking our guest, Vinaya Simha, M.B.B.S., M.D., from the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolic Disease at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Type 2 Diabetes as an Inflammatory Disease”.

    Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Disease Edition: Interplay Between Cholesterol, Inflammation and Thrombosis

    Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Atul Jain, M.D., M.S. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women and it’s responsible for 1 in every 5 deaths. It’s estimated to cost over $250 billion a year, which includes the cost of medical services, medications and lost productivity. Patients with cardiovascular disease are commonly seen in a general medical practice and since it’s such a common health problem, we’re all pretty comfortable managing these patients. But do we know what’s happening pathologically? What’s the role of cholesterol and inflammation in cardiovascular disease?  What causes the inflammation? How do we measure it and most importantly, can we do anything about it? I’ll be asking these questions of our guest, internist Atul Jain, M.D., M.S., from the Division of General Internal Medicine at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss the interplay between cholesterol, inflammation and thrombosis in cardiovascular disease.

    Back to School Edition | Pediatric Mental Health Disorders

    Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Joselyn R. Lebow, Ph.D., L.P. Unfortunately, mental health problems are common in our youth. A recent study by the CDC found that among adolescents aged 12 to 17, just under 21% had experienced a major depressive episode within the past year. Among high school students, more than 35% reported feeling sad or hopeless, with nearly 20% seriously contemplating suicide and mental health disorders are not limited to our teens. Over 17% of children aged 2 through 8 have had a diagnosis of a mental, behavioral or developmental disorder. Are mental health disorders in our youth increasing? How might depression present in a child or adolescent? How common is suicide in our youth and how often are suicide attempts successful? I’ll be asking these questions and more to my guest in today’s podcast on “Pediatric Mental Health Disorders” as part of our “Back to School” podcast series. My guest is child psychologist Joselyn R. Lebow, Ph.D., L.P., from the Mayo Clinic.

    Back to School Edition | Pediatric and Adolescent Ophthalmologic Concerns

    Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Erick D. Bothun, M.D. It’s estimated that more than 1 in 20 preschool-age children and 1 in 4 school-age children have a vision disorder. Since the eyes are the source of sensory input for much of the learning that takes place in our children, these statistics take on real importance. Vision problems in childhood can result in developmental delays and are often misdiagnosed as learning disabilities. As adults, we’re aware of changes and problems with our vision. Children who have never known clear vision may not realize their vision is impaired. What are the most common eye disorders in children? How many of our pre-school children are receiving vision screening? What are common signs a child may have a vision impairment? These are just some of the questions I’ll asking my guest, Erick D. Bothun, M.D., from the Department of Ophthalmology at the Mayo Clinic. As part of our “Back to School” Series, we’ll be discussing “Pediatric and Adolescent Ophthalmologic Concerns”.

    Back to School Edition | Pediatric and Adolescent Sleep Medicine

    Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Julie M. Baughn, M.D. Sleep is very important for a child’s physical and mental health and plays a vital role in the development of cognitive and motor skills.  The American Academy of Pediatrics estimates that up to 50% of children and 40% of adolescents have problems with their sleep, which may manifest as issues in school, mood disorders as well as relationship problems with others. What kind of sleep problems do children and adolescents commonly experience? When should we suspect impaired sleep is causing problems and do children and adolescents have some of the same sleep disorders as adults? I’ll be asking these questions and more as we explore “Pediatric and Adolescent Sleep Medicine” as part of our “Back to School” series of podcasts. My guest is Julie M. Baughn, M.D., a pulmonologist and sleep specialist at the Mayo Clinic.

    Diverticular Disease

    Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guests: Sahil Khanna, M.B.B.S., M.S., and Sherief Shawki, M.B., B.Ch., M.D. Diverticulosis is quite common. Its prevalence varies with age from fewer than 20% at age 40 to 60% by age 60. It's far more common in the left colon and tends to be progressive with both the number and size of the diverticula, both increasing with age. There are potential complications of diverticulosis, with diverticulitis being most common. This also tends to increase in prevalence with age and appears to be increasing with time. Can diverticulitis be prevented? What’s the best way to manage a patient with acute diverticulitis and when is surgery indicated? I’ll be asking these questions and more to my guests, Sahil Khanna, M.B.B.S., M.S., from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology and Sherief Shawki, M.B., B.Ch., M.D., from the Division of Colorectal Surgery at the Mayo Clinic. The topic for this podcast is diverticular disease. Connect with the Mayo Clinic’s School of Continuous Professional Development online at https://ce.mayo.edu/ or on Twitter @MayoMedEd.
