EP21: Common Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Prevention of Lyme Disease

Lyme disease is the most common US tick-borne infection. Learn about early signs like the erythema migrans rash, fever, and headache. Untreated cases can lead to severe complications such as Bell palsy or arthritis. Effective prevention involves early diagnosis, antibiotic treatment, and protective outdoor measures. A new Lyme vaccine candidate is currently in Phase III trials, offering future preventive hope. References: Patel, B., & Malani, P. N. (2025). What Is Lyme Disease?

EP82: Cracking the Feline Cancer Code

Researchers analyzed 493 feline tumor-normal pairs to map the first comprehensive feline "oncogenome". The study reveals that cats share striking genetic similarities with human cancers, particularly involving the TP53 gene and MYC alterations. These findings are a game-changer for precision oncology in pets, enabling targeted therapies once reserved for humans. Reference: Francis, B. A., Ludwig, L., He, C., Dobromylskyj, M., Bertram, C.

EP30: The Protein Craze: Is More Always Better?

Walk into any store, and you'll see protein bars, powders, and even protein popcorn. Social media is flooded with high-protein diet tips promising muscle gain and weight loss [1]. But is this just hype for "Gym Bros"? The science tells a different story. Protein is *crucial*, but maybe not for who you think. It’s a key player in healthy aging, fighting sarcopenia [3, 4], and even supporting modern weight-loss journeys [1, 2]. Let's separate the facts from the fad. References: Lenharo, M.
