On July 21st 2025, the FDA convened a hearing on maternal use of antidepressants during pregnancy and the impact this use has on fetal development. Around 400,000 children in the United States are born each year whose mothers took antidepressants while pregnant, and so it's easy to see the societal importance of this topic. What are the risks to the fetus, the newborn, and the long-term development of that child? Adam Urato and Joanna Moncrieff were members of that FDA panel, and so too were several others well-known to MIA readers, including David Healy and Joseph Witt-Doerring. The purpose of the panel was to assess whether the FDA needed to put a warning on antidepressants related to their use in pregnancy, and most on the panel spoke of research that told of the need to do so. However, after the panel concluded, the American Psychiatric Association and other medical associations, most notably the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, responded with what can only be described as howls of outrage, issuing press releases and telling the public that the panel was biased and that the real risk during pregnancy was untreated mental illness. These medical organizations asserted that the increased risk of adverse outcomes for children born to depressed mothers is due to the illness and not the drug, and that there was plenty of evidence that antidepressants were a helpful and even life-saving treatment for maternal depression. Here is where we are today. That FDA hearing put two narratives on public display, and most media reports embraced the narrative put forth by the medical organizations. What we will do today is review the evidence that exists on this topic and the response by the medical guilds to a public airing of that evidence. Dr. Adam Urato is Chief of Maternal and Fetal Medicine at the Metro West Medical Center in Framingham, Massachusetts, and he has been speaking and writing about the risk of medications used during pregnancy for years. Dr. Joanna Moncrieff is a UK psychiatrist and researcher who was a co-founder of the Critical Psychiatry Network and is well known for her research on the safety and efficacy of psychiatric drugs. *** Thank you for being with us to listen to the podcast and read our articles this year.

If you're a healthcare provider, patient, or just interested in the role of empathy and self-awareness in medicine, you won't want to miss this episode.I'm thrilled to be joined once again by Dr. Mickey Liebowitz—an accomplished endocrinologist, author, and a true champion for bringing emotional intelligence into the world of healthcare.Dr. Liebowitz and I talk about the current state of the U.S. healthcare system—not just looking at the advancements in medicine and technology, but focusing on something that's often overlooked: the human connection between doctors and patients. Together, we discuss how easy it is for that critical relationship to become transactional with the ongoing pressures of the business side of medicine, and why that matters for both patients and practitioners.Dr. Liebowitz shares some powerful stories from his decades of experience that really drive home just how important emotional intelligence is in creating trust, hope, and better outcomes. We also discuss his brand new book, "The EQ Prescription," and his concept of the Emotional Intelligence Zone—a tool that can help both professionals and patients foster real, meaningful connections in healthcare.We share real-life scenarios, practical advice, and the reasons why optimism and the willingness to change can make such a difference in our health journeys.Mickey Lebowitz, originally from Brooklyn, New York, is a graduate of SUNY-Oswego (magna cum laude and student athlete of the year) and Upstate Medical University and a board-certified endocrinologist/diabetologist (Fellow, American College of Endocrinology).

Sometimes you hear something that makes you just stop and say, “What did you say?!”. Yep, in this episode we will give evidence-based answers to three questions that I heard TODAY that made me stop and ask, “What did you say?”. In this episode we will cover: 1. Umbilical cord blood collection from a monochorionic twin gestation, 2. Predictability of the mBPP compared to full BPP, and 3. Breastfeeding during postpartum cannabis use (this last one is not so intuitive as you would think, and there is new ACOG guidance on this which we will review). Listen in for details!1.

California Passes Law Allowing State to Set Its Own Vaccine Guidance In a landmark move, California has passed a new law (AB 144, signed by Governor Gavin Newsom on September 17, 2025) that gives the state authority to establish its own vaccine schedules and related policies — rather than being bound by federal guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).  Here's a breakdown of what the law does, why it was enacted, and how it fits into a broader trend among U.S. states. Key Provisions of the Law Some of the main changes under AB 144: It establishes a baseline for vaccine coverage based on the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendations as of January 1, 2025. It authorizes the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) to modify or supplement those baseline recommendations, using guidance from independent medical organizations (like the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, etc.). It requires that state-regulated insurance plans (including Medi-Cal) cover vaccines that the state health department endorses under its guidance — meaning no copays for many Californians under those plans for state-recommended vaccines. It gives CA authority to act more independently of federal advisory bodies when those are perceived by state leadership to be compromised or less trustworthy. Why This Law Was Enacted Several reasons motivated the push for this law: Concerns over federal changes: The law reflects growing concern in California (and some other states) that recent shifts at the federal level — including reconstitution of advisory panels, changes in vaccine eligibility criteria, and what state officials view as politicization of public health — have undermined trust in the CDC's recommendations...

Alors, voici un rapide aperçu des déclarations, disons non scientifiques, de Donald Trump sur le paracétamol, l'autisme et les vaccins.So, here's a quick overview of Donald Trump's, let's say, non-scientific statements about paracetamol, autism, and vaccines.Tout ça vient de déclarations où Trump affirmait vouloir révéler les causes de l'autisme.This all comes from statements where Trump claimed he wanted to reveal the causes of autism.Un sujet aussi brassé par Robert F. Kennedy Junior qui lui parle carrément d'épidémie d'autisme.A subject also stirred up by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. who, for his part, outright speaks of an autism epidemic.Pendant ce temps, la science, elle explique la hausse des diagnostics par un meilleur dépistage, tout simplement.Meanwhile, science explains the rise in diagnoses simply by better screening.Voyons les points clés de cette affaire.Let's look at the key points of this matter.D'abord, Trump a fait un lien sans aucune preuve d'ailleurs entre prendre du paracétamol pendant la grossesse et l'autisme.First, Trump made a link, without any proof by the way, between taking paracetamol during pregnancy and autism.Il a carrément conseillé aux femmes enceintes de l'éviter autant que possible.He outright advised pregnant women to avoid it as much as possible.Alors que bon, c'est justement le médicament qu'on recommande pendant la grossesse.Whereas, well, it's precisely the medication that is recommended during pregnancy.Il a même poussé pour que la FDA, l'agence américaine du médicament, ajoute un avertissement sur les boîtes.He even pushed for the FDA, the American drug agency, to add a warning to the boxes.Ensuite, et bien, le monde médical a réagi, et assez vivement.Then, the medical world reacted, and quite strongly.Le Collège américain des obstétriciens et gynécologues a trouvé ça, je cite, irresponsable et dangereux.The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists found it, and I quote, irresponsible and dangerous.Même le fabricant du Tylenol a défendu son produit, en soulignant les dangers d'une fièvre qu'on ne traiterait pas chez une femme enceinte.Even the manufacturer of Tylenol defended its product, by highlighting the dangers of a fever that would not be treated in a pregnant woman.Et enfin, Trump a remis sur le tapis de vieilles théories du complot, celles qui lient vaccins et autisme.And finally, Trump brought up old conspiracy theories again, those that link vaccines and autism.Il a prétendu, là encore sans fondement, que certains groupes non vaccinés, ou même des pays comme Cuba, n'avaient pas d'autisme.He claimed, again without basis, that certain unvaccinated groups, or even countries like Cuba, did not have autism.Il a aussi critiqué le calendrier des vaccins, suggérant de retarder celui contre l'hépatite B, en se fiant, dit-il, à son "bon sens" plutôt qu'aux médecins.He also criticized the vaccination schedule, suggesting delaying the one for hepatitis B, by relying, he said, on his "common sense" rather than on doctors.

On Monday, President Donald Trump warned pregnant women not to take Tylenol, claiming without evidence that it was a cause of autism. Veronica Gillispie-Bell, MD, board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist and vice chair of American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' Clinical Practice Guidelines Committee of Obstetrics, breaks down what the science says about painkiller use during pregnancy and listeners call in to share how they've been navigating new Trump administration guidelines for pregnant women.

Earlier this week, President Trump and his Administration made claims about the correlation between autism and Tylenol or acetaminophen use during pregnancy, warning pregnant women not to use the drug. A mounting backlash has followed with medical and autism experts alike disagreeing with Trump's claims. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the American Academy of Pediatrics continue to recommend acetaminophen in pregnancy and childhood when used at the lowest dose for the shortest duration.

David has operated several clinics, including a practice in Kathmandu serving the Tibetan and Nepalese communities as well as international travelers, and practices in California in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Monterey, and in Ashland, Oregon. David currently serves people from all over the world through his telemedicine practice. David is a passionate medical researcher and educator of state-of-the-art herbal medicine, and an authority on the safe uses of herbs and essential oils. He avoids the popular trends of market-driven internet medicine and relies instead on documented research and traditional ethnobotanical wisdom and methods.

In this episode, Lillian Erdahl, MD, FACS, is joined by Jordan Rook, MD, from UCLA, and Lorraine Kelley-Quon, MD, FACS, from Children's Hospital Los Angeles and Keck School of Medicine of USC. They discuss Drs Rook and Kelley-Quon's recent article, “Expanding the Public Health Role of Pediatric Trauma Centers: Drug Screening for Adolescent Trauma Patients,” in which the authors found that biochemical drug screening for injured adolescents is decreasing at pediatric trauma centers, despite increasing national adolescent overdose deaths. Given high rates of substance use among injured adolescents, this is a missed opportunity to intervene on problematic substance use and prevent future adolescent overdose deaths.   Disclosure Information: Drs Rook, Kelley-Quon, and Erdahl have nothing to disclose.

In this episode, we review the newly published 2025 ACC/AHA hypertension guidelines. Key Concepts Instead of the Pooled Cohort Equations (PCE) from 2013, the 2025 hypertension guidelines recommend a new risk equation called PREVENT, which incorporates new risk factors and does not include race as part of the risk calculation. The guidelines recommend starting two antihypertensive medications for initial therapy in stage II hypertension and one antihypertensive medication for stage I hypertension. The guidelines no longer recommend specific first-line therapies for black patients. Instead, all patients without compelling indications should be initiated on a thiazide, ACE inhibitor, ARB, or dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker regardless of race/ethnicity. All patients should have a blood pressure goal of < 130/80 mmHg. Some patients may consider a more stringent goal of < 120/80 if they have diabetes or are at a higher risk of future ASCVD events.

My guest for this episode is Carolyn Swinton, who is an Executive Coach and consultant, and who also happens to be one of my former clients. We worked together years ago when she was the Chief Nursing Officer of a large hospital organization. We've stayed in touch over the years, and more than once, after we had a meaningful conversation, I hung up thinking “We should have recorded that for a podcast.” Well, we finally did it!  This conversation touched on a number of themes – everything from making the distinction between knowledge and wisdom to learning to take nothing personally to finding hope when everything seems out of kilter. Carolyn has a way of empowering people to live a purpose driven life, and that was one of the core themes of this conversation. She emphasizes the value of learning to be present, something that is much easier said than done, and yet it becomes very possible when talks about it. Here's more about Carolyn: Carolyn Swinton is an Executive Coach and consultant drawing on her 30+ years' experience as a C- suite executive. Guidance is often needed to unleash the power and potential that lies within us all. Carolyn's purpose is to guide and support individuals and organizations in their journeys to achieve their full potential and live their best lives. She utilizes the proven practices of traditional and directed coaching, powerful questions, reflective practices, and deep empathy to support a deepening self-awareness, effective communication, and the cultivation of meaningful relationships to help clients awaken to their truth.  Carolyn has coached middle and senior leaders in the healthcare and business sectors and is the right fit for clients ready to deepen their self-awareness and master the tools they need to effectively communicate, resolve conflict, and achieve operational and cultural transformation. Most recently, she served as a Chief Nurse Executive for the largest healthcare system in South Carolina. In addition to her executive coaching, she also serves as Affiliate Faculty at the University of South Carolina College of Nursing, and Affiliate Clinical Associate Professor at the Clemson University School of Nursing. Carolyn has coached leaders utilizing the Leadership Circle 360 and Leadership Maturity Assessment Profiles as guides to support leaders in developing an understanding of themselves and others. Coaching in alignment with the principles of vertical development, Carolyn supports leaders in transforming their way of thinking, speaking and being to achieve sustainable change.  Carolyn is a Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives, Fellow of the Riley Institute Diversity Leaders Fellowship Program, and an ANCC Board-Certified Nurse Executive.

Please join HRS Digital Education Committee Vice-Chair, Tina Baykaner, MD, MPH, of Stanford University, as she is joined by Heart Rhythm Society President Mina K. Chung, MD, FHRS, of the Cleveland Clinic, and Konstantinos C. Siontis, MD, FHRS of the May Clinic. The three met up in Altanta at HRX 2025 for this stimulating coversation. This study evaluated whether artificial intelligence applied to single-lead ambulatory ECGs could predict imminent sustained ventricular arrhythmias. Using deep learning models, the researchers demonstrated that AI could identify subtle ECG features preceding arrhythmic events, enabling accurate short-term risk prediction. The findings suggest a potential role for AI-enhanced ECG monitoring to improve early detection and prevention of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.

Listen in to hear Jamie share: How deepening her understanding of herself and her identity as a Korean immigrant woman helped her become a better self-advocate when she realized she was being significantly underpaid at work How our development of self-advocacy is not just about us, but also an act of service How she overcame the assumption that women need to earn their power in order to see that women actually need to claim their power The connection between self-advocacy, shame, and power How women can use anger to activate motivation The science of successful negotiation by decentering yourself How to use Zen practices and neuroscience to inform to rewrite your internal narratives and unlock your greatest potential  Links Mentioned: Connect with Jamie: https://www.jamieleecoach.com Jamie on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leejieunjamie Jamie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieleecoach Listen to Jamie's interview with Sara on Risky Conversations: https://podcast.jamieleecoach.com/ Book: The Heart Sutra Book: Open Focus Brain Connect with Sara: saradean.com Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

David Waldman catches us up on the multiple disasters since Friday. Greg Dworkin catches us up on the multiple disasters since Thursday. Boooo! Trump was booooooooed at the US Open. If they don't want to hear boos, they shouldn't invite Trump. Or Winsome Earle-Sears. Tiny hands, deep throat, Donald K. Trump was an FBI Snitch according to Mike Johnson, the last guy anyone would trust to keep a secret. The Miami Herald and New York Times seek to unseal records on Jeffrey Epstein's estate, while we all know that Jeffrey Epstein and everyone on the Epstein list has been brought to you by capitalism.  Zohran Mamdanimentum continues as Americans are beginning to see capitalism about as badly as they do Trump. LG Energy specialists squeezed into 90+ day rotations to set up a Hyundai battery plant in Georgia were caught in violation of that “+” part, were belly-chained and hauled out of the country. The plant they were setting up won't be hiring Americans any time soon, thanks to Karen-Republican Mar-a-Lago wannabe Tori Branum. Don't expect to hear more from Branum but do expect a lot more plants to be shut down. The Department of War begins its Midway Blitz, which is not a war, it is simply a police action. Why do so many Republicans think Trump is more liberal than he is? If people die in Florida because of lack of vaccines, it will be a surprise to Florida Surgeon General Ladapo. RFK Jr. will have seen it all coming, as he always does a year or so later. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists will save lives in the future by ignoring the CDC today. Ironically, the owner of one of the most punchable faces in politics, Scott Bessent, keeps wanting to punch others in their faces. This time it was the quite punchable Bill Pulte and for the same reason as Scott picked ever punchable Elon Musk. Scott heard both were bad mouthing him to Donald. Scott almost took Bill out, back there on the cement slab they have over the White House septic tank. E. Jean Carroll won her judgement against Trump again.

If you're interested in boosting your cardiovascular fitness, I've got three steps for you to do.  Your cardiovascular fitness - VO2 max - is the most powerful predictor of longevity. Together with your lower body strength, they will tell the story of your future.    What is VO2 max? Oxygen consumed in milliliters per kilogram per minute. Strongest predictor of longevity, alongside lower body strength. VO2 Max and muscle mass peaks typically at age 25, with studies suggesting an average annual reduction of about 1% after.   Increasing your VO2 max can significantly increase your longevity. It can reduce all-cause mortality by 10-25%. Just going from low to above-average fitness levels can reduce mortality risk by 60-70% over a decade.    The 3 Steps to Improve Cardio Fitness 1. Long slow aerobic exercise  Walking, hiking, biking, swimming. Work just below threshold (can talk, slightly breathy). 80% of the time will be spent here. 20% should be spent doing HIIT or strength training. 2. High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)  10-15% improvement in 5-10 weeks 15–30 seconds of breathless effort (sprinting effect). Breathless in 30 seconds or less. 3. Strength training Improves muscle, may enhance your body composition or weight    Improving both your fitness (oxygen delivery and use) and reducing weight means your ml/kg/min will go up as you consume more oxygen with less body weight .. and even if you don't lose weight your muscle is metabolically active and consumes oxygen while fat doesn't.    So let's come back to the value of VO2 for reducing all cause mortality.  A modest increase of 3.5 ml/kg/min (1 MET) is all it takes to reduce all-cause mortality by up to 25%.    How do you know your Cardio Fitness is improving?    Short of getting a VO2 max test, you can measure in other ways:  Resting heart rate – first thing in morning  Recovery heart rate at end of interval and one minute later One-mile walk test   Why Muscle Still Matters? More muscle = higher oxygen demand → better VO2 Max. Fat mass doesn't contribute to oxygen use. Muscle quality declines with age → requires smarter training, especially during menopause.   Watch this episode on Flipping50TV YouTube.   References:  Journal of American College of Cardiology. 2018, PMID: 30384883.
