Welcome to the Choosing Wisely Campaign series! This is the fourth episode of a 5-part series exploring the ABIM Foundation's Choosing Wisely Lists. This campaign aims to promote conversations between clinicians and patients to avoid unnecessary medical tests, treatments, and procedures. Our third case-based episode presents a child with fever and cough. After a clear discussion of the case and thoughtful consideration of the etiology and treatment strategies, we use the AAP's Choosing Wisely Hospital Medicine and Infectious Diseases lists to create a resource-conscious care plan that is safe and patient-centered. In the coming episodes, we'll explore the pediatric lists and apply our knowledge to cases of common presentations seen in primary and acute care pediatrics.    Series Learning Objectives: Introduction to the Choosing Wisely Campaign: Understand the origins, historical precedent, and primary goals of the campaign. Case-Based Applications: Explore five common presentations in primary and acute care pediatrics, applying concepts from various Choosing Wisely lists to guide management and resource stewardship. Effective Communication: Learn strategies for engaging in tough conversations with parents and colleagues to create allies and ensure evidence-based practices are followed.

Let's say you were asked to name the greatest health risks facing the planet. Priceton University economist Ramanan Laxminarayan, founder and director of the One Health Trust, would urgently suggest you include anti-microbial resistance near the top of that list. “We're really in the middle of a crisis right now,” he tells interview David Edmonds in this Social Science Bites podcast. “Every year, about 5 million people die of infections that are associated with antibiotic resistance -- 5 million. That's nearly twice the number of people who die of HIV, TB and malaria, put together -- put together. Antibiotic resistance and associated deaths are the third leading cause of death in the world, after heart disease and stroke. So you're talking about something that's really, really big, and this is not in the future. It is right now.” The underlying problem, simply put, is that humans are squandering perhaps the greatest health innovations in the last century by using antibiotics stupidly, allowing pathogens to develop resistance and thus rendering existing antibiotics worthless. For the last 30 years and in particular through One Health Trust and as director of the World Health Organization Collaborating Center for Antimicrobial Resistance, Laxminarayan has labored to make both shine a light on anti-microbial resistance and push for policies to address it. This, he tells Edmonds, is a social science problem even more so than a medical science problem – but not the exclusive province of either. “I think one of the failures of economics,” he says, “in some ways, is that we don't take the trouble to understand the nitty gritty of the actual other field, especially when it deals with health economics or environmental economics.” In addition to his role as a senior research scholar at Princeton, Laxminarayan is an affiliate professor at the University of Washington, a senior associate at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and a visiting professor at the University of Strathclyde.

Bees are an essential part of our food chain, with more than three-quarters of global crops depending on pollinators. A new report for World Bee Day has highlighted emerging threats that mean the insects could struggle to survive. Without them, most of our crops would not grow. But the humble bee has been on the decline for decades. Pesticides and climate change have taken much of the blame for that downward trend. "If the decline in pollinators continues, we are going to see significant food insecurity, because the amount, the quality and the quantity of yield will reduce. But also, pollination plays a huge role in the nutritious value. So, micronutrients in the food are dependent on having good pollination. So not only will we have a reduction in the food quantity that we eat, the quality will also be seriously affected," says the report's co-author, Deepa Senapathi, who is head of the Department of Sustainable Land Management at the University of Reading. Experts identified the top 12 new threats facing bees. Some relate to pollution—artificial light at night has reduced flower visits by nocturnal pollinators by 62 percent. Antibiotic pollution in hives could be affecting bee behavior, such as reducing how often they forage for flowers. Pesticides, air pollution and microplastics also made the list. "We talk about how pollution is a big issue, right? But what we may not really focus on is the actual specifics of what type of pollution. So, for example, diesel and exhaust fumes, for instance, when they pollute the air, they can also disrupt pollinator plant interactions. So, the bees may not be able to kind of identify their best foraging resources. If there's heavy metal pollution in the water or the soil, that may impact behavior of bees. It may even impact their reproductive success survival," says Senapathi. Other problems facing bees are more frequent and fierce wildfires destroying habitats, which can't recover quickly enough afterwards. The report titled Emerging Threats and Opportunities for Conservation of Global Pollinators was commissioned by Bee:wild, a global campaign to save pollinators. World Bee Day is May 20. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Dana was a 29-year-old musician living in Chicago—perfectly fit and healthy. Until she took a routinely prescribed antibiotic for a urinary tract infection.After taking just 6 pills, she began to feel horribly ill. Her limbs tingled and went numb—to the point where Dana had to pull over to the side of Lake Shore Drive using her knees to guide the steering wheel.Her life was never the same.She moved back home to live with her parents because she couldn't possibly continue to work or care for herself. She could barely get out of bed. They had to wash her hair. She became an invalid.All because of an antibiotic.The doctors didn't believe them. It was just an antibiotic. No way could the drug be the cause of Dana's illness!This episode serves as the first in a new series examining drugs most of us consider completely safe, effective, and harmless.Lori Wold joins us to share her daughter's journey to healing. She's spreading the word in hopes others will avoid these toxic medications! Resources: https://mountainsandmustardseedssite.wordpress.com/2017/03/18/this-antibiotic-will-ruin-you/Sponsor:The Wellness CompanyWebsite: ⁠https://www.twc.health/lovelife⁠Code: LOVELIFE for 15% off your order!Dr. Karin & Pastor Elliott AndersonWebsite: http://loveandlifemedia.com/Empowered Dating Playbook: smarturl.it/EmpoweredDatingBookInstagram: @dr.karin | @pastorelliottanderson

NTNU professor Marit Otterlei nearly threw out the contaminated cell culture where she and her colleagues were testing a new cancer drug.The problem arose on a hot summer day, in Trondheim, in a country not known for hot summer days. So they'd opened the lab's windows overnight.When they came back the next day, they found an uninvited guest, snuggled in with their cancer cell culture: Bacteria!!!Here's the thing, though: although the drug had been designed to work on human cancer cells, it looked like it had killed the bacteria, too!That was remarkable, because the cancer drug targeted a specific mechanism that human cells use to replicate. It looked like the drug also targeted the same mechanism in bacteria -- even though the tree of life had branched away from bacteria 3 BILLION years ago! How could that be?Today's podcast takes a peek into the challenging world of what it takes to bring a drug, especially an antibiotic, to market. But it's also an inside look into how some researchers, with their deep curiosity about the nuts and bolts of how life actually works, can come up with startling discoveries that may someday save our lives. Sometimes, the key to saving lives can be hidden in a protein that hasn't changed much over billions of years.Our guests on today's show are Marit Otterlei, a professor at NTNU's Department of Clinical and Molecular Medicine; Siril Skaret Bakke, innovation manager at NTNU's Technology Transfer Office AS, and Christine Årdal , senior researcher at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health.Marit is a part-time CSO at APIM Therapeutics (https://www.apimtherapeutics.com/), which is developing the cancer drug that she was testing back in 2011, when an open window on a hot summer day led her to suspect that her substance might a possible antibiotic, too. That antibiotic, Betatide, is now undergoing testing that pharmaceutical companies require before investing in it.Here's a list of some of the key academic publications:Gilljam, Karin Margaretha; Feyzi, Emadoldin; Aas, Per Arne; Sousa, Mirta; Müller, Rebekka; Vågbø, Cathrine Broberg.

In this solo episode, Brad dives into the challenges of managing mastitis, especially during wet spring and summer conditions. He shares findings from ongoing University of Minnesota research on non-antibiotic treatments for mastitis, highlighting two promising alternatives: Ozolea-Mast, a corn oil-based intramammary product, and Optimum UterFlush, a botanical-based treatment studied in Colorado.Brad discusses how these non-antibiotic tools have performed both in lactating cows with subclinical mastitis and as dry cow therapy. Notable results include a consistent ~30% reduction in somatic cell count in chronic cows and the potential economic benefits of avoiding milk and meat withdrawal. While the Colorado study didn't show significant differences in udder health outcomes, Brad stresses the importance of continuing to evaluate these products as pressure increases to reduce antibiotic use on dairies.Whether you're a producer looking to cut costs or a researcher interested in alternatives to antibiotics, this episode offers valuable insights into mastitis treatment innovation.Ozolea-MastQuestions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

 After 2050, more people will die from infection/inflammation than from cancer.The reasons are that through the antibiotic in the food, the bacteria become more and more resistant to the antibiotic, and the overuse of disinfection.The food industry is feeding our animals with an antibiotic since over 50years.Because through antibiotic the animals grow faster and are protected against diseases. In the meantime, a bacteria (Superbug), has developed that can kill everybody and is resistant to the antibiotic or any other common disinfection. If we are under intense stress or our immune system is weak the Superbug has the chance to grow in our body and to kill us!! In the future, antibiotic will not work anymore because we can't increase the doses of antibiotic anymore and the bacteria become resistant to the antibiotic.    For instance, in Germany dying 14,000 People through a Superbug infection which they got in a hospital… Why? The hospitals grow the Superbug like crazy through the overuse of disinfection and antibiotic. The disinfection and antibiotics kill healthy bacteria and give room for the Superbug.And this also comes true for shrimps farms in Asia….Instead to use clean, purified water they put an antibiotic in the water of the shrimps.  In Canada, they have done a survive for the Superbug in shrimps. Even the Canadian government thought it is enough to check for an antibiotic in our food. It is not allowed in Canada to sell food with an antibiotic. The survive checked for the 1.) Superbug,2.) for bacteria that produce ESBL strains to neutralize antibiotic, and3.) for bacteria that are multi-resistance of a different antibiotic.The results have been shocking!The Sciences bought from the supermarket 50 different packages of frozen shrimps mainly from Asia. And then they tested the packages for bacteria. The results:1.) 17% of the packages contained the Superbug even one product was from an organic farm or was a high certified product. 2.) 33% of the boxes contained bacteria that produce ESBL strains to neutralize antibiotic.3.) 88% of the packages contained bacteria that are multi-resistance of a different antibiotic.What is if you think that you don't care because you cook the shrimps?And now comes the problem…When you prepare the shrimps, the Superbugs are all over the place in the kitchen and maybe also on your body and the bodies of your family…. The Superbug can survive for months on the floor or on the spice containers or on the kitchen cabinet….What is if even in your chicken, poultry, pork, seafood, or beef are the Superbug? Imagine you buy seafood, you cut it, and cut the salad with this knife… Then you can have the Superbug in your salad and finally in your gut!  What is if you eat probiotic as fermented vegetables with this salad? Then the probiotic can kill the Superbug! And this I proof again and again that you have to eat probiotic every day!!!!!!My Video: How the antibiotic can kill us?! https://youtu.be/x-fLN8HqUGo My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/How-the-antibiotic-can-kill-us.mp3

INTERVIEW: Jeremy Dubrulle on using viruses to solve the antibiotic crisis (Thirst 4 Knowledge) by Zac Hoffman on Radio One 91FM Dunedin

Drs. Amy Crockett (@amyhcrockett), Ben Ereshefsky (@brainofbpharm), and Pamela Bailey (@pamipenem) join Dr. Julie Ann Justo (@julie_justo) to discuss new treatment strategies for management of intraamniotic infections, also known as chorioamnionitis. They discuss whether it is time to move away from the combination of ampicillin, gentamicin, and/or clindamycin, alternative antibiotic regimens to consider, and stewardship strategies to approach this practice change at a local level.

Is the human microbiome an endangered species? Dr. Martin Blaser, author of "Missing Microbes: How the Overuse of Antibiotics Is Fueling Our Modern Plagues," has also been featured in a documentary, The Invisible Extinction, that explores the dire consequences of our depleted microbiomes. Antibiotic overuse, C-sections, lack of breast-feeding, ultra-processed food, lack of exposure to nature, and chlorinated water conspire to deplete our bodies of beneficial bacteria; these imbalances in intestinal flora have profound, far-reaching effects, not just on digestive disorders, but on immunity, metabolism, and brain function. Conditions like insulin resistance, obesity, Parkinson's Disease, depression and anxiety, and many more have been linked to microbiome deficits. What lessons do stool samples from indigenous peoples offer us? There may be a transgenerational effect of microbiome depletion. Dr. Blaser has gone so far as to advocate a Microbiome Vault to preserve our bacterial heritage. Are fecal transplants and poop pills the answer? “Vaginal seeding”? What role do high-fiber diets play? Are fermented foods beneficial? What about probiotics? Dr. Blaser describes measures we need to take now to recover our microbial diversity.

MIT professor Thomas Levenson is one of America's most celebrated science writers and filmmakers. In his upcoming new book, So Very Small, Levenson charts the history of germ theory to underline how modern scientific research has changed the world and saved tens of millions of lives. Not surprisingly, then, Levenson expresses deep concern about the Trump administration's attacks on the American scientific establishment, particularly funding cuts affecting critical research. He warns against growing the anti-vaccine ideology, explaining how periods of rapid social change often trigger the kind of anti-expertise attitudes articulated by paranoid reactionaries like RFK Jr. FIVE TAKEAWAYS* Science in America is under assault by the Trump administration through funding cuts to critical research institutions like NIH, which doesn't just affect current work but dismantles research infrastructure that takes years to build.* Levenson's book "So Very Small" traces how humans discovered microbes and developed treatments for infectious diseases, showing both scientific progress and persistent resistance to medical innovations like vaccines.* Anti-vaccine sentiment has grown from fringe to mainstream, with RFK Jr.'s appointment as head of health policy representing a serious threat to public health despite the overwhelming evidence supporting vaccine efficacy.* The COVID pandemic demonstrated both scientific triumph (developing vaccines in record time) and societal division, reflecting a pattern where rapid social change often triggers anti-expertise attitudes.* Antibiotic resistance represents a growing crisis where previously curable infections are becoming untreatable, not because of scientific failure but because of social choices about how we've deployed these medications.Thomas Levenson is a professor of science writing at MIT. He is the author of several books, including So Very Small, Money for Nothing, The Hunt for Vulcan, Einstein in Berlin, and Newton and the Counterfeiter: The Unknown Detective Career of the World's Greatest Scientist. He has also made ten feature-length documentaries (including a two-hour Nova program on Einstein) for which he has won numerous awards.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

SpaceTime Series 28 Episode 43The Astronomy, Space and Science News PodcastExploring Venusian Volcanoes, the End of the Gaia Mission, and SpaceX's Historic Polar Orbit LaunchIn this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into the geological mysteries of Venus, where new research suggests that convection in its crust may explain the planet's numerous volcanoes. Unlike Earth, which supports life, Venus is a harsh environment with extreme temperatures and a crushing atmosphere. We discuss how this convection could indicate a more active geological landscape than previously understood, shedding light on the planet's evolution.The Conclusion of the Gaia MissionNext, we mark the end of an era as the European Space Agency officially powers down the Gaia spacecraft. After over a decade of groundbreaking work mapping the Milky Way, Gaia has provided invaluable data that has transformed our understanding of the galaxy. We highlight the mission's key achievements and the lasting legacy of its extensive data archive that will continue to inform astronomical research for years to come.SpaceX's Manned Polar Orbit MissionAdditionally, we celebrate SpaceX's successful launch of its first manned mission to orbit above the Earth's poles. This historic flight, which included a variety of scientific experiments, showcases the capabilities of modern space travel and the potential for future polar exploration. We detail the mission's objectives, the crew's experiences, and the significance of this achievement in the context of human spaceflight.00:00 Space Time Series 28 Episode 43 for broadcast on 9 April 202500:49 New study on volcanic activity on Venus06:30 Implications of convection in Venus's crust12:15 The end of the Gaia mission and its contributions18:00 Highlights of Gaia's discoveries and data legacy22:45 SpaceX's first manned polar orbit mission27:00 Summary of recent space exploration milestones30:15 Science report: Antibiotic use in livestock and environmental impactswww.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com

Father Marcel Taillon joins Patrick to discuss lying. (3:15) Lying is not a joke, Christ never lied. We all need to tell the truth and know the truth that is Christ (3:41) April Fool's Day done in the right sense is good thing, we just don’t want to scare or hurt someone by lying. (5:39) Peter denied Christ and lied. What might tempt us to not tell the truth. (5:58) St. Thomas Moore remained silent during his trial and so did Jesus. Thomas Moore did not deny his love for the Church or his live for the king. Silence can be a way of not denying the truth and avoiding being overly defensive. (10:54) Part of avoiding lying is to avoid over emphasizing our opinion of someone online and on social media even if it is true (11:15) Social media raises the potential to hurt and confuse people so we must be on guard. (13:06) Lying puts up roadblocks to true reconciliation (19:46) the Antibiotic of lying is mercy (22:17) Break 1 (24:00) Henry - I have a problem with lying. Compulsive lying. I will take stuff and stretch the excuse. My mom always finds out. (28:40) Jim Gaffigan (31:46) Tonya - My husband has a gambling problem. He says everybody lies and everybody tries to con everybody. Is everybody really that way? I don't believe that. (39:01) Break 2 (40:31) Scott - My brother and I were in a feud. I read 1 John 4-20 and that turned it all around for me. We're doing great now and are reconciled. (46:32) Al - My husband and lying. I can't trust him anymore. I ask him if he's lying, but I know he is. It's coming so easy and it's breaking my heart.

In this episode:00:46 Newly discovered molecule shows potent antibiotic activityResearchers have identified a new molecule with antibiotic activity against a range of disease-causing bacteria, including those resistant to existing drugs. The new molecule — isolated from soil samples taken from a laboratory technician's garden — is called lariocidin due to its lasso-shaped structure. The team say that in addition to its potent antibiotic activity, the molecule also shows low toxicity towards human cells, making it a promising molecule in the fight against drug-resistant infections.Research Article: Jangra et al.09:36 Research HighlightsA reduction in ships' sulfur emissions linked to a steep drop in thunderclouds, and the epic sea-voyage that let iguanas reach Fiji.Research Highlight: Ship-pollution cuts have an electrifying effect: less lightning at seaResearch Highlight: Iguanas reached Fiji by floating 8,000 kilometres across the sea13:54 Assessing the nuances of humans' biodiversity impactsA huge study analysing data from thousands of research articles has shown that the human impacts on biodiversity are large but are in some cases context dependent. The new study reveals that at larger scales, communities of living things are becoming more similar due to human influence, but at the smaller scale they are becoming more different. "These are generally unwanted effects on biodiversity," says study author Florian Altermatt, "this is one more very strong argument that stopping and reducing these pressures to halt and reverse biodiversity declines is needed."Research article: Keck et al.21:45 Briefing ChatHow a proposed green-energy facility in Chile could increase light pollution at one of the world's most powerful telescopes, and how a calving Antarctic iceberg revealed an unseen aquatic ecosystem.Nature: Light pollution threatens fleet of world-class telescopes in Atacama DesertScientific American: Stunning Antarctic Sea Creatures Discovered after Iceberg Breaks AwaySubscribe to Nature Briefing, an unmissable daily round-up of science news, opinion and analysis free in your inbox every weekday.

The Aspilia shrub has traditionally been used for treating wounds and stomachaches, but when researchers observed chimpanzees eating the leaves, further discoveries on the Aspilia's antibiotic properties to fight bacteria, fungi, and worms were made. The chimps' remarkable behavior raises the question of how these animals discovered the plant's medicinal qualities in the first place.
