This year is the 50th anniversary of the first transcatheter ASD closure in a human. To celebrate this achievement, this week we air a live interview from PICS 2025 in Chicago (conducted 8/26/25) with living interventional cardiology legend Dr. Terry King speaking about the events surrounding his landmark intervention as the first person to ever perform a transcatheter ASD closure with his partner, surgeon Dr. Noel Mills. In this one on one interview, Dr. King discusses how he came up with this idea with Dr. Mills and how he found a patient in which to proceed. He reviews what 'informed consent' was in 1975 and also how he and Dr. Mills accurately estimated ASD size in an era that preceded 2D echocardiography. Dr. King speaks about the role of family in his life and offers advice to the next generation. Finally, he shares with us what he is up to today and why he does not believe in retirement. Prepare to be excited and inspired by this wonderful figure in our field.

Send us a textThe potential link between acetaminophen (Tylenol) and autism, with a surprise phone call from RFK partway through.Episode Summary: Dr. William Parker talks about autism spectrum disorder (ASD), its rising prevalence since the 1980s, and the controversial hypothesis that acetaminophen exposure in susceptible infants and children triggers most cases via oxidative stress. They discuss ASD's clinical definition; historical misconceptions like the "refrigerator mother" theory; genetic susceptibilities; acetaminophen's metabolism, which produces toxic byproducts in underdeveloped livers, leading to brain effects.About the guest: William Parker, PhD spent nearly 30 years as a professor at Duke University researching underlying causes of chronic conditions, including discovering the immune function of the human appendix and pioneering studies on immune systems in wild animals.Discussion Points:Autism is a spectrum disorder with core symptoms like social deficits, repetitive behaviors, and aversion to new stimuli.Parker argues overwhelming evidence points to acetaminophen as the primary trigger in susceptible individuals, causing oxidative stress via toxic metabolite NAPQI.Acetaminophen, marketed as Tylenol or paracetamol, was not tested for neurodevelopmental effects in neonatal animals until 2014, despite widespread use since 1886; it's metabolized differently in babies, whose livers lack mature detox pathways.Susceptibility factors include low glutathione (an antioxidant), poor sulfation/glucuronidation metabolism, folate receptor autoantibodies, and events like immune reactions that prompt acetaminophen use during oxidative stress.Regressive autism, where children lose milestones after seeming normal, often follows acetaminophen given for fevers or illnesses, explaining parental vaccine suspicions (as shots coincide with drug use).Adult acetaminophen is generally safe but causes liver toxicity in overdoses or with alcohol; antidote is NAC to boost glutathione.Parker has suggested to policymakers that we should avoid acetaminophen during pregnancy, birth, and early childhood (under age 3-5); parents should plan ahead for fevers/pain without it, but seek medical help for unusual symptoms.*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

We discuss:The songs we featured during the recap: Overture and Girl Dad (It Takes Such a Long Time) by Roh Young Sim.Our delightful Zoom meet and greet with listeners, where many shared their love of Extraordinary Attorney Woo as their gateway into K Dramas.The varied opinions on Lee Jun-ho, from the fantasy of a perfect green-flag partner to the critique that he's bland or too idealized.The heartbreaking case of a North Korean defector, Gye Hyang-sim, and how it highlights issues of motherhood, justice, and societal prejudice.The dangerous and emotionally devastating journey of North Korean defectors and how the South Korean government processes and supports them.The emotionally raw parallels between Gye Hang-sim's pain and Woo Young Woo's deep empathy for Gye Hyang-sim, especially Woo Young Woo's moving whale metaphor, where she likens Gye Hyang-sim to a mother whale who refuses to abandon her child even at the cost of her life.The shocking moment when CSY and WYW barge into the judge's chambers, and how their family pedigrees become unexpectedly relevant to the judge's view of them.The meaning of bongwan (ancestral clan origin), and how it reflects deeply ingrained class and social cues in Korean legal and elite circles.The surprise ending of the case, where the judge suspends Gye Hyang-sim's prison sentence due to her confession, lack of a criminal record, and unfamiliarity with South Korean law.The subtly developing triangle between Woo Young Woo, Lee Jun Ho, and Choi Soo Yeon, fueled by Kwon Min-woo's manipulative suggestion that Lee Jun Ho likes Choi Soo Yeon.The emotional theme of mothers throughout the episode, culminating in the poignant department store scene where Tae Soo-mi almost crosses paths with her daughter WYW. Our admiration for Attorney Jung, who quietly supports his junior attorneys and upholds justice, even at the cost of corporate clients.ReferencesAndong - WikipediaAndong Kim clan - WikipediaBaby Boxes on South Korea: A Controversial But Effective Way To Save LivesThe story of Tahlequah, the orca North Korean defectors - Wikipedia

Systemic Maternal Inflammation and Neurodevelopment: The Role of IL-6 and IFN-γ in Autism Spectrum Disorder I just returned from Estes Park, Colorado where I presented a lecture on the Growing Brain/Mind - a tour through the underpinnings of childhood neurological changes that we call Autism. The timing is perfect for this article to be written. In an era when chronic disease in children is rising at an unprecedented pace, the search for root causes must include an honest inquiry into the conditions present during fetal development. The review article by Majerczyk and colleagues, Systemic Maternal Inflammation Promotes ASD via IL-6 and IFN-γ, brings forward a critical piece in this puzzle that I began to explore a few years ago when writing a book. It connects the dots between maternal immune dysregulation and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes, specifically autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Through a synthesis of clinical data and animal research, the authors make a compelling case for the centrality of two inflammatory messengers, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), in shaping fetal brain development during gestational stress. The key words here being GESTATIONAL STRESS, the recurring scientific theme for ASD development, not vaccines... and some literature reviews. Dr. M

This episode explores the understanding of the intersection of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and sexual violence prevention—including breaking stigmas, clarifying neurodiverse experiences in relationships, and promoting safety and respect. Individuals with ASD and neurodivergence experience the world in a unique way. However, they also face disproportionate rates of marginalization, discrimination and violence. Additionally, this group is more than 3 times as likely to experience sexual violence compared to those without disabilities. At VSC, we aim to understand the nuances of neurodivergence and how we can all be a part of protecting and supporting this community. In our first segment, we're joined by Maria Torres, a volunteer for the Autism Society of Florida, an educator in the field and a parent of a child affected by autism spectrum disorder. Maria shares some of the safety challenges that she see's children with autism struggling with today – including wandering and being drawn to water, which increases the risk of drowning. Also, Maria discusses the importance of families seeking support groups and community. In the second segment, we're joined by Michelle Zeman, a neurodivergent self-advocate, Board Certified Behavior Analyst, and co-host of the REACH podcast—an initiative from the Autism Society of Florida. Michelle uses both personal experience and professional insight to uplift neurodivergent voices, challenge stigma, and expand the conversation around relationships, communication, and safety.In the third segment, we're joined by Catharine Warren, an Autism Specialist with the UCF Center for Autism and Related Disabilities. Catharine will share how CARD supports individuals, families and professionals in creating safer, more inclusive spaces for people on the autism spectrum. For many neurodivergent individuals, safety is a concern. Catharine shares some of the practical safety strategies that have been effective in supporting neurodivergent people and protecting their family.Guest SpeakersMarria Torres: volunteer, educator, parent and volunteer at Autism Society of FloridaMichelle Zeman: Host of the REACH PodcastOrganization: Autism Society of Florida.

​In the case identified as Case Number CR01-24-31665, defendant Bryan C. Kohberger's legal team has filed a motion titled "Motion to Strike Death Penalty RE: Autism Spectrum Disorder." This motion asserts that Kohberger's diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diminishes his culpability, undermines the retributive and deterrent objectives of capital punishment, and increases the risk of wrongful conviction and sentencing. The defense emphasizes that ASD impairs communication, reasoning, social skills, and impulse control, factors that should be considered when determining appropriate sentencing.The motion further argues that executing individuals with ASD contradicts evolving standards of decency and that such defendants may struggle to effectively assist in their defense or convey remorse, potentially leading to unfair sentencing. The defense highlights the heightened need for reliability in capital cases and contends that ASD-related impairments could result in misinterpretations by jurors, thereby increasing the likelihood of an erroneous death sentence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:022425-Motion-Strike-Death-Penalty-RE-Autism-Spectrum-Disorder.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

I'd like to hear what you have to say about living without hope. My therapist and I have been... 00:01:18 2. Hey Kati, I'm a 25F with ASD. I have been abused by over 50 people (after reaching 50 I stopped counting) in almost every way imaginable, even by people who were supposed to love and/or protect me, even by therapists and teachers, from when I was 4 years old until recently. I don't even really know what the word “safe” means. I have helped or held space for many people dealing with pain and grief, but I never learned how to receive help for myself. I was shamed and physically punished by my parents for even the smallest acts of self-care, self-soothing or my ASD symptoms themselves... 00:09:27 3. How do I get past the fact that therapy itself requires an imbalance of intimacy and sharing and just overall is not an organic give and take relationship? 00:18:07 4. How to stop obsessing over the world we live in….and how scary it's becoming for our children. 00:25:12 5. I feel like I have nothing exciting to look forward to. This has been ongoing for years. 00:29:38 6. How can you cope with re traumatisation when you can't get out of the situation? 00:33:49 7. Is it possible for untreated mental illness to be traumatizing? I think I had a period of depression for a few months when I was 12-13ish, but I never told anyone and would always say I was fine when asked. I was functional enough to shower, eat, do school... 00:33:49 My new book is available for pre-order: Why Do I Keep Doing This? → https://geni.us/XoyLSQ If you've ever felt stuck, this book is for you.
