Dr. Bradley Ong discusses a newly FDA-approved nasal powder formulation for treating debilitating migraine attacks.

Hello Poison Friends! We have discussed quite a few heavy metals, but not all of them. While we did mention Antimony awhile back, we did not give it the attention it deserves, so this would be a great time to do so. Before getting too deep into Antimony, however, a review on purging with emetics and the history there concerning the "rebalancing of humors" as well as the more modern "ridding oneself of toxins," is in order. One emetic that is more recent in our history is Ipecac. Technically, or medicinally, it went by the name Syrup of Ipecac. Parents, here in America at least, were told by the American Association of Pediatricians to keep a bottle in their homes at all times in case of children accidentally poisoning themselves. What we have learned since the late 1990s however is that not only is Ipecac not really effective at treating poisoning cases, but it is also toxic and can lead to its own complications including irritation of the GI tract and airways, seizures, and heart problems. There are now more efficient and safe ways to treat cases of poisoning that do not involve forced vomiting. Throughout history, people have leaned on various toxic substances to cause themselves to vomit or that would induce diarrhea as a way of healing or keeping oneself healthy. It doesn't sound pleasant but what they used made it even less so. Antimony does cause GI distress including vomiting and diarrhea and can also lead to muscle weakness, gastric ulcers, seizures, kidney disease, cardiovascular diseases, neurological disease, respiratory distress, and blistering of the skin if topically applied. It has also been found to be carcinogenic. Acute use at high dosages, or chronic use at any dose, could lead to poisoning and death. People used Antimony medicinally (as Tartar emetic, namely) for a number of different ailments including epilepsy, syphilis, tuberculosis, and GI distress of all sorts. It was even used for alcoholism, and in some countries, it still is. In centuries past, they even had accessories to go along with their toxic medicine. So let's go through the history of these substances and you know some interesting and familiar names will pop up along the way including a Biblical character/Babylonian king, Isaac Newton, a King of France, and a founding father with a penchant for excessive bleeding and purging.

After recovering from her battle with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in the late 1990's Shannon Hartey had a number of late effects that bothered her until 2020. By that time Shannon was in her early 30's  and these late effects got so bad, that Shannon was unable to know from day to day whether the intense  pain level that she was receiving in her head for a variety of reasons  combined with other cognitive issues that can happen to her at any time , will allow her to have even a normal day. The alternative, which happens regularly, takes her to a health level that is so difficult, it can make her life totally miserable on many levels. What Shannon has been diagnosed with, all because of her treatment for ALL which she received after this form of Pediatric Blood Cancer was discovered when she was 6 years old in 1994, is known as SMART SYNDROME. These late effects are almost totally unheard of, and have been very difficult for some of the best oncologists and doctors to have an answer for.

Episode 201: AKI Roadmap.  Future Dr. Ayyagari describes the different types of acute kidney injury and shares some elements of management for each category. Dr. Arreaza shares some input about statistics and the importance of drinking water during summer.Written by Tejasvi Ayyagari, MSIV, Ross University School of Medicine. Edits and comments by Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.INTRODUCTION:Dr. Arreaza: Hello everyone, and welcome back to Rio Bravo qWeek — your weekly dose of knowledge. I'm Dr. Arreaza, I am a faculty member and associate program director of the Rio Bravo FM residency program. In Episode 126, we briefly introduced the topic of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), but today, we're taking a deep dive into the matter. I have here alongside my cohost, future Dr. Ayyagari, AKA TJ. Please, TJ, introduce yourself.TJ: Hey everyone, good to be back on the podcast. My name is TJ Ayyagari, and I am currently finishing my last rotation of medical school with Rio Bravo CSV outpatient.  I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.Dr. Arreaza: So, TJ prepared this discussion about acute kidney injury, also known as AKI. This is a critical topic for our Kern community, especially during the summer months when the risk of AKI increases. You will face many patients with AKI on the wards, in the clinic, and especially on your future board exam. Hopefully, by the end of this episode, you all will have more information on AKI, but also the three different types: prerenal, intrinsic, and postrenal. TJ: Without further ado, let's get started, Dr. Arreaza.SECTION 1 – What is AKI?Dr Arreaza: Let's start with the definition. Let's explain what AKI is. TJ: Absolutely.  So, an AKI is not just a bump in the patient's creatinine. According to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) definition, an AKI embodies any of the following criteria:Increase in serum creatinine by ≥0.3 mg/dL within 48 hours, ORIncrease in serum creatinine to ≥1.5 times baseline within the prior 7 days, ORUrine volume 20:1).  There is also a lab value called the Fractional excretion of sodium, otherwise known as FeNa, which will appear as 20:1 — looks like prerenal.FeNa 500 mOsm/kg.In the later phase (after prolonged obstruction → tubular injury):BUN: Cr ratio ~10–15:1 — now looks intrinsic.FeNa >2%.Urine osmolality ~300 mOsm/kg.Dr. Arreaza: BUN:Cr ratio and FeNa are not reliable to diagnose postrenal AKI, so we must rely more in imaging and clinical presentation. Let´s talk about the management of postrenal AKI.TJ: Absolutely!  The main way to treat a post-renal AKI is to relieve the obstruction causing it in the first place, whether it be through surgery, TURP, lithotripsy, etc.Dr. Arreaza: I think the favorite treatment done by urology to relieve obstruction is a ureteral stent, which, remember, needs to be removed later. Typically, 1-2 weeks is sufficient to treat kidney stones. The risk of encrustation and infection increases significantly after 4–6 weeks, and stents should ideally be exchanged within 3 months to minimize complications. SECTION 5 – ClosingDr. Arreaza: I know you've spent a decent amount of time explaining the details of the AKI types with us, TJ, but could you give us a summary?TJ: Viewers, if there's anything to take away from this, remember:Prerenal: Poor perfusion, fix the flow.Intrinsic: Structural damage inside the kidney — think ATN, AIN, GN.Postrenal: Obstruction — relieve the blockage.When you see AKI, think: Before the kidney, in the kidney, or after the kidney? That simple framework can help you move fast and help your patient recover kidney function.Dr. Arreaza, any advice you want to give to the viewers?Dr. Arreaza: Yes,weare in the middle of summer, and we treat a large amount of farm workers, construction workers and people who spend time outdoors, in general, remind your patients to drink water. Water is life, especially for the kidneys, there is no substitute. That's it for today's episode of Rio Bravo qWeek. If you enjoyed this review, share it with a colleague or medical student who could use a quick AKI refresher. And remember — the kidneys may be small, but they're mighty… and they hold grudges when you ignore them. I'm Dr. Arreaza, signing off.TJ: Thank you for tuning in, everyone. Have a nice day!Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser. Thanks for listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast.

In this week's episode we'll learn about targeting NPM1 in acute myeloid leukemia. Researchers report the first clinical evidence of a menin inhibitor inducing complete remissions in AML with a NPM1 mutation. This validates NPM1 as a new therapeutic target in AML, alongside FLT3, IDH1/2, and KMT2A. Also on the podcast: targeting CD137 to prevent graft-versus-host disease. In nonhuman primates, a single dose of a CD137 antibody-drug conjugate provided long-term protection, with one important caveat: the potential for viral reactivation.Featured Articles: Menin inhibition with revumenib for NPM1-mutated relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia: the AUGMENT-101 studyA single dose of a CD137 antibody–drug conjugate protects rhesus macaque allogeneic HCT recipients against acute GVHD

There is no escaping stress but cortisol in menopause changes. With that, your stress response to nearly everything may change.  You don't feel it at first but then there's unexplained weight gain or belly fat. There's less focus or concentration than you used to have. It shows up in different ways for each of us.    My Guest: Sara Banta is a Certified Dietary Supplement Professional and member of the National Association of Nutrition Professionals, helping people take their health into their own hands using cutting-edge natural supplements, DNA-driven nutrition, and real lifestyle solutions.

[00:00:00] What is causing chronic stress? [00:00:00] Why is this so critical to understand what impacts cortisol in menopause? [00:00:00] How does it affect muscle gain and fat loss? [00:00:00] How is the thyroid related to the adrenals? [00:00:00] How can you maintain and build lean muscle while under stress over 50? [00:00:00] What supplements help get your adrenals back on track? [00:00:00] What lifestyle habits either kill or improve cortisol?   Why Cortisol in Menopause Makes Stress Feel Different   Acute vs Chronic Cortisol Acute stress Short-term, natural response to immediate danger. Cortisol helps survival (fight-or-flight). Immune system goes up. Chronic stress Prolonged, ongoing; body never recovers. Chronic stress keeps cortisol elevated → negative health effects.   Causes of Chronic Stress in Midlife & Menopause Perimenopause & menopause: the stressors don't change, but the response to them does. Common triggers: lack of sleep, poor diet, environmental toxins, over-exercise, emotional stress.   Cortisol's Effect on Muscle Gain & Fat Loss Elevated cortisol breaks down muscle tissue. Interferes with protein synthesis, leading to muscle loss. Promotes fat storage, especially visceral (belly) fat. Lowers metabolism → makes weight management harder.   Lifestyle Solutions for Cortisol in Menopause Diet: whole foods, protein-rich, healthy fats, avoid processed sugar. Supplements: adaptogens (ashwagandha, rhodiola), magnesium, vitamin C or Sara Banta's Cortisol Reset Detox Recovery: sleep, restorative exercise (yoga, walking, pilates), breathwork, meditation.   Connect with Sara: Website - Accelerated Health Products and Sara Banta Health Facebook - Accelerated Health Products  Instagram - @acceleratedhealthproducts  X - Sara Banta  YouTube - @AcceleratedHealthSaraBanta  TikTok - @ahpsupplements_    Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - The New Menopause Therapy: Confessions of a Femme Fatale Next Episode - Aging with Power, (Without an Outage) with Vonda Wright More Like This: To Detox and If So How to Detox: Midlife Woman to Midlife Woman Is Your Liver Preventing Muscle Growth in Menopause?

In this episode, I review the book Masters of Uncertainty - The Navy Seal Way to Turn Stress into Success for You and Your Team by Rich Diviney.If you think about it, stress is one of the most powerful assets and liabilities in each one of our lives. It can cause us to focus and be the best version of ourselves. Left unfocused or uncontrolled, it can devastate us or even lead to premature death. In the military, panic is not an option. Panic rarely serves us well, but that is precisely what happens if we cannot control our stress. Acute stress leads to panic. By definition, the military knows that they are putting their men and women in acutely stressful situations. So they have developed a series of techniques to allow there troops to be as calm and as possible to achieve the mission.Diviney shares what he learned in his SEAL training, outlining a series of concrete steps to turn negative stress into an asset to achieve your mission.In this episode, we focus on one part of the book relating to controlling your response in the midst of uncertain and unexpected events.We cover: duration, pathway, and outcome DPO); what is known and controllable in unexpected events; and breathwork to immediately calm the mind when an unexpected event occurs.This is book short; however, its impact is powerful. It has the potential to change your life.Control your stress. Turn it an asset. Optimize the result. Just like the Navy SEALS do. This was a good book!!

This week on the Inside EMS podcast, Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson shine a spotlight on the kidneys and their impact on patient outcomes. What starts as a chat about chronic kidney stones quickly dives into a sharp, clinical breakdown of renal anatomy, physiology and the far-reaching consequences of kidney dysfunction in EMS care. Chris and Kelly unpack the kidneys' role in fluid balance, blood pressure regulation and acid-base stability, including how the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) system can either save a patient … or make things worse. They outline the key types of acute kidney injury (pre-renal, intrinsic, post-renal), tie them back to underlying anatomy, and explain why perfusion matters long before labs confirm failure. With field-focused tips on what to ask (yes, diaper counts matter), what to look for and how to manage critical complications, this episode gives medics the tools to recognize renal red flags early — and act fast. Additional resources: Acute kidney injury assessment and treatment The science behind shock: Why providers must understand the RAAS Caring for the dialysis patient One for the Road: Is this a kidney stone? Memorable quotes “In EMS, we don't really pay attention to the functioning of the kidneys until everything goes south.” “They're not lying when they say the kidneys are the windows to the viscera.” “Kidney problems don't happen in isolation.” Enjoying the show?

Although the proposed rule for the 2026 Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS) has been released by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), mastering the complexities will continue to challenge most coders and coding team members. That is why ICD10monitor producers have asked Dr. James S. Kennedy to join the upcoming edition of Talk Ten Tuesdays: to highlight potentially significant roadblocks that are likely to confront coders as they prepare to implement the new rule that becomes effective Oct. 1, 2025.As a sidebar, Dr. Kennedy, along with nationally recognized coding authority Christine Geiger, will team up for the 2026 IPPS Masterclass series, taking place live Aug. 13, 14, and 15.The popular weekly Internet broadcast will also feature these additional instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:• CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Director of clinical documentation integrity (CDI) for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.• The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.• News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.• MyTalk: Angela Comfort, veteran healthcare subject-matter expert, will co-host the long-running and popular weekly Internet broadcast.

Oral methadone versus sublingual buprenorphine for the treatment of acute opioid withdrawal: A triple-blind, double-dummy, randomized control trial  Drug and Alcohol Dependence Researchers compared oral methadone to sublingual buprenorphine for the management of acute opioid withdrawal. Patients at an inpatient drug treatment center in India were randomly assigned to receive either methadone or buprenorphine titrated over days 1-3 to control opioid withdrawal symptoms. Over days 4-10 medications were tapered and stopped by day 11. Completion of treatment was similar in both groups (83% methadone, 82% buprenorphine). Both subjective (SOWS) and objective (COWS) withdrawal symptoms decreased during the treatment, however the buprenorphine group had significantly greater withdrawal symptoms than the methadone group (p=0.009) at the end of treatment (day 10). Opioid craving also decreased in both groups with no significant difference between groups. Authors conclude that methadone is a safe and effective alternative to buprenorphine for management of opioid withdrawal.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM  

Our Vision is: To see the fame and deeds of God in our time by developing followers of Jesus who are committed to practicing the way of Jesus. This vision is drawn from Habakkuk 3:2 and Matthew 28:18–19—a call to believe God can still act in powerful ways today and to commit to discipleship that actually practices His teachings. ⸻ Reason 1 – We must still believe God can and will act in power today     •    Habakkuk had only heard of God's miracles but prayed to see them in his time.     •    Scripture is filled with examples (Noah, Caleb, Joshua, David, the woman with the issue of blood, Bartimaeus) where belief in God's power preceded experiencing His power.     •    Many Christians stop expecting what they haven't experienced. Their experience becomes the authority rather than Scripture.     •    The more we believe God can work, the more we tend to experience from Him.     •    A.W. Tozer taught that we move toward our mental image of God—if we think He is small, we will live as if He is. ⸻ Reason 2 – God responds to hunger, not apathy     •    Tozer again: Complacency is the deadly foe of spiritual growth—“He waits to be wanted.”     •    Biblical examples (Israel in Egypt, Judges cycle, David's cries, 2 Chronicles 7:14, James 4:8, Matthew 5:6) show that God acts when His people cry out and earnestly seek Him.     •    Hunger means craving, longing for God's presence and work.     •    The lie that “God will do whatever He will do, no matter what” is unbiblical—Scripture calls us to seek Him if we want to experience Him. ⸻ How we pursue this vision – By developing followers of Jesus     •    In Scripture, it was always the committed followers—those who put Jesus' words into practice—who experienced His power.     •    Examples:     •    Peter obeying Jesus to cast nets and catching more fish than he could handle.     •    Lepers healed “as they went.”     •    The early church praying and seeing Peter freed from prison.     •    Stephen, Ananias, Peter—each obeying Jesus and seeing miraculous results.     •    Luke 6:47–49: Those who hear and obey are like houses on rock—secure, strong, and unshaken.     •    Many call themselves Christians without following Jesus, and thus miss experiencing God's power.     •    Jesus calls for disciples, not just “Christians.” Discipleship is not about morality for morality's sake, but about obedience that unlocks God's powerful work.     •    Commands are not rules for being “nice”—they are invitations to experience God's presence and power. ⸻ Call to Response Coleton invited the church to respond in specific ways:     1.    Pray for God's fame and deeds to be repeated today—in healings, conversions, reconciliations, miracles.     2.    Obey any specific word from God—don't delay obedience.     3.    Move from nominal Christianity to true discipleship—repent and follow Jesus fully.     4.    Cultivate hunger for God—because God responds to hunger. ⸻ Men's Discipleship Group Questions     1.    In what areas of your life have you stopped expecting God to move because you haven't experienced Him working there yet?     2.    How does your current “mental image” of God affect the way you pray, act, and take risks for Him?     3.    Men often value results—how can we grow in valuing hunger for God even when results aren't immediate?     4.    What is one concrete step of obedience you believe Jesus is calling you to take this week?     5.    How can we encourage each other to actually practice Jesus' words instead of just talking about them? ⸻ Women's Discipleship Group Questions     1.    Habakkuk prayed, “Repeat Your fame and deeds in our time.” If you prayed that today, what specific things would you ask God to do?     2.    Where in your life has your experience been louder than Scripture in defining what you believe is possible with God?     3.    What does “hungering for God” look like in your season of life right now?     4.    Think of a time you obeyed God despite uncertainty—how did you see Him move through that?     5.    What's one way our group can pray with you for God to “repeat His deeds” in your family, relationships, or community? ⸻ Author Quotes from the Sermon     1.    Abraham Heschel: “Never once in my life did I ask God for success or wisdom or power or fame. I asked for wonder, and he gave it to me.”     2.    A.W. Tozer: “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us. The gravest question before the Church is always God Himself, and what we, deep in our hearts, conceive God to be like. We tend by a secret law of the soul to move toward our mental image of God.”     3.    A.W. Tozer: “I want to deliberately encourage a mighty longing after God. The lack of it has brought the church to our present low estate. The stiff and wooden quality about our spiritual lives is a result of our lack of holy desire. Complacency is a deadly foe of all spiritual growth. Acute desire must be present or there will be no manifestation of Christ to His people. He waits to be wanted.”

Story at-a-glance Stress is one of the most powerful disruptors of sleep. However, recent research shows it also paradoxically triggers sleep instead of insomnia Acute stress sometimes activates brain circuits that promote non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep as recovery This stress-induced sleep is short-lived. With repeated stress, sleep becomes fragmented or suppressed, reflecting patterns seen in stress-related disorders Specific brain regions like the ventral tegmental area orchestrate stress-induced sleep by activating GABAergic neurons that promote sleep while suppressing stress hormones While stress may sometimes trigger sleep, true restorative rest is better achieved through consistent routines like daily exposure to morning sunlight, blocking blue light after sunset, and improving your sleep environment

We're back with another episode of Push Dose Pearls with ED Clinical Pharacist, Haley Burhans! In this episode, we break down the essentials of managing agitation in the ED—starting with why you should avoid diphenhydramine in the elderly and benzodiazepines in the 3 D's: drunk, delirium, and dementia. We discuss how to quickly assess the cause, choose the right medication, and decide between IM and IV routes. And Haley offers some key safety tips and considerations for special populations, including kids and the elderly.  Was this episode helpful? What other medications would you like to learn more about?

What if the stories we tell about stress and adversity are holding us back? What if the most resilient people are not the strongest, but the most adaptable? This episode is an invitation to rethink resilience. Dr. Steven Stein shares how the hardiness mindset shifts our relationship with challenge. A concept born in military research but relevant to artists, entrepreneurs, and everyday heroes. It's not about stoicism or sheer willpower; it's about seeing meaning in difficulty, embracing uncertainty, and committing to a journey bigger than the immediate obstacle. T You'll discover how small shifts in thinking can ripple into profound changes in how you live, work, and connect. Actionable takeaways: Cultivate challenge as a lens for growth, not a reason to retreat. Practice focusing your efforts where you have influence, not where you feel powerless. Let your commitments guide you beyond temporary discomfort. ---- Advertisers BetterHelp The world's largest online therapy provider ⁠⁠⁠⁠BetterHelp.com/GrowthMindset⁠⁠⁠⁠ - 10% off 1st month Liquid I.V.
