En este episodio, profundizamos en uno de los fenómenos más devastadores pero menos comprendidos en neurorrehabilitación: la denervación muscular tras una lesión medular. A través de una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura científica y de la experiencia clínica, abordamos qué ocurre realmente con los músculos que han perdido su inervación, cómo se transforman con el tiempo y qué posibilidades tenemos para intervenir. Hablamos sobre neurofisiología, degeneración axonal, fases de la denervación, y cómo la estimulación eléctrica —especialmente con pulsos largos— puede modificar el curso degenerativo incluso años después de la lesión. Exploramos también el Proyecto RISE, los protocolos clínicos actuales y las implicaciones terapéuticas reales de aplicar electroestimulación en músculos completamente denervados. Si trabajas en neurorrehabilitación o te interesa la ciencia aplicada a la recuperación funcional, este episodio es para ti. Referencias del episodio: 1. Alberty, M., Mayr, W., & Bersch, I. (2023).

Gary discusses several recent examples about people believing absurd things just because of something they saw online. AI is only as good as the database it searches, and if errors exist in the data, the answers the AI gives will always be wrong. People need to learn to be discerning and check information out before repeating it.

The practice of neurology is constantly changing, and the papers in this issue exemplify that trend. On this episode, journal editors Dr. Geraint Fuller and Prof. Philip Smith discuss their highlights from the latest issue of Practical Neurology, for February 2025. They begin with the editors' choice paper on stiff person syndrome, then speak about new guidance from the ABN on disease-modifying treatments for MS. There's also life-improving interventions for posterior cortical atrophy, changing attitudes towards stroke as a career option for neurologists, and management techniques for cryptococcal meningitis - including a resourceful substitute for India ink.  Read the issue: https://pn.bmj.com/content/25/1/1  Please subscribe to the Practical Neurology podcast on your favourite platform to get the latest podcast every month.

About this episode: Hearing declines for everyone as we get older, no matter what we do. As it declines, it can cause health problems like cognitive decline and brain atrophy, and is directly linked with Alzheimer's. But there are ways to understand and reduce these impacts including over-the-counter hearing aids and a new app where people can test their hearing on their smartphone. In this episode: a conversation about a health issue that will impact all of us to some degree, and how technology is helping to address impacts early and upend the stigma of hearing loss. Guest: Dr. Frank Lin is the director of the Cochlear Center for Hearing and Public Health and a professor of otolaryngology, medicine, mental health, and epidemiology at the Johns Hopkins University Schools of Medicine and Public Health. Host: Lindsay Smith Rogers, MA, is the producer of the Public Health On Call podcast, an editor for Expert Insights, and the director of content strategy for the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

Every January, I like to make some predictions about the year ahead. Then, in my final post of the year, which this will probably be, I go back and review them. That's what we are doing today.Before I begin, just a couple of things:* In case you missed it, check out Friday's piece on North American tax loss selling. It has 9 ideas for short-term trades, which could come good by February.* And there is now a video version of "The Chainsaw and the Swamp: A Tale of Two Economies" for your Sunday morning viewing pleasure.Right. Here we go …Predictions are funny things. The more outlandish the prediction, the more entertaining the copy, but the less likely it is to actually happen. What is more important: getting lots of eyeballs or being right?I like this exercise because it demonstrates just how much perspective can change over time. While we can change strategy as events develop, what I wrote a year ago does not, so when you look back at stuff you got wrong, you can look foolish, even if you changed tack in real time. On the other hand, if you got stuff right, people go - well that was obvious.So the rules of my little game are this: I score two points for a direct hit, one for a good call, zero for a miss, and minus one for a "David Lammy on Mastermind" fail.I made 15 predictions. Here they are:1. The Great Decline goes on.I was pleased with this one, even if it was rather negative.“Everywhere the state's tentacles reach remains a drain on productivity. Our once-great institutions continue to fall apart, like zombie meth addicts, stumbling towards dysfunction... The ordinary worker desperately trying to improve his lot is bled dry by taxes, inflation, housing costs, and the voracious state monster. Fiat loses yet more of its purchasing power. The South Africanisation of everything continues.”Gosh, it's depressing and negative. Things may be changing on the other side of the pond, but they are not in Europe. Two points.2. Gold breaks out to new highs and goes to $2,400. And some. $2,790 was the high. We're now at $2,620. Two points.3. Bitcoin goes to new highs as well.Yup. We are at $98,000 as I write. $108,000 was the high. Two points.4. For reasons I don't understand, ethereum outperforms bitcoin.Ethereum always seems to move later in the cycle and by more, hence the prediction. But in 2024 bitcoin outperformed. Zero points.5. The US dollar trends sideways.It didn't. The US Dollar Index began the year at 100 and ended about 8% higher around 108. Another big fat zero.6. Sterling has problems.Cable began the year at around $1.27 and it's now at $1.25, having been as high as $1.34. So it's down a bit. But the eight-year cycle low that I am looking for has not materialized. I'm sure it's coming, but zero points.7. The Tories are eviscerated.Pleased with this one.They had their chance and they blew it. Come the General Election this year, the voters are unforgiving. … The SNP is similarly annihilated. The shortcomings of our political system are there for all to see. But nothing that needs to change does. Roughly 80% of the country did not vote Labour, yet they got 63% of the seats. Incredible. And they call it democracy. Two points.8. Uranium to hit $125/lb.Nope. The highest it got was $105/lb, and that was in January. It spent the rest of the year declining; it's now at $73. Minus one. Totally wrong.9. Fast and processed food companies have problems.I think I am early to this. Let's see what RFK does. But, by way of proxy, McDonald's is flat on the year; Burger King (Restaurant Brands International) is down 14%; KFC is off about 10%.Good call. Two points.Seed oils are losing.10. Good year for the Japanese yen. It has to go up sometime right? It's so cheap.Nope. It went down. Minus one.11. The S&P500 has a good year.I'll say. It's up 25%. Way above expectation. Two points.12. Small caps outperform.Apart from a brief spell in summer, they didn't. It feels like they are starting to, but nope. Zero points.13. UK house prices. Atrophy and stagnation, but no meltdownThat feels about right. About 50% of stuff on the market isn't selling, apparently. I'm not surprised; the cost of moving is so high. Two points.14. Silver. Can it stage a meaningful rally above $30?Nope, I said. It went to $34 in October. Now it's $29. Was that rally meaningful? Well, it did better than I thought it would. Zero points.15. Liverpool win the league; Sheffield United, Burnley, and Luton are relegated.Got the losers right but not the winners. 1 point.All in all, not a great showing. 13 points.Oddly enough, whenever I score low on the predictions, I have a much better year in the portfolio.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Alicja: Hi Dr.Cabral, Thanks to the knowledge you share I was able to improve my thyroid. I took your courses about thyroid and I listen to your podcast regularly. Last year when I tested my thyroid all the markers were in range, except for anty-TG. Having those antibodies still suggest I have Hashimoto. As you said on the podcast it may just take longer for the antibodies to disappear. I waited another year and retested my thyroid again. All looks good except I still test positive for Hashimoto. The latest test show anty-TG at 4.42 IU/ml, whereas the test year ago showed 9.35IU/ml. So there is a definite decline. My question: should I do nothing about it, because it takes years for the antibodies to disappear? Or the fact that I still have those antibodies for so long indicates a problem?     Alicja: Hi again, I also want to ask you about about two other things that were off my chart. I have very high levels of vit.B12. I don't supplement with B vitamins, but I take multivitamin daily. Since I saw very high levels of B12 on my bloodwork a couple of years ago, I decreased dosage of my multi and instead of taking a full dose, I take half dose or 2/3. Despite of that my latest test still shows very high and out of range B12 (654 pg/ml) Can this be toxic to my body? Have you ever heard of very high B12 levels indicating a cancer? Second: my prolactin levels are very low. What causes it and how can I correct that? I'm 41 yo, with improving health but still having some hormonal imbalances.     Madison: Hey Stephen! I got a steroid shot in my hip for a sinus infection 6 months ago, and the injection site is a large dimple now that's about twice the size of a quarter and pretty deep. I assume this is fat atrophy. Is there any way to help this condition? All I've read says fat graphs and Botox. Would red light therapy help? Is there a natural cream to stimulate the cells there to regenerate? Should I try like a detox mask on the area with bentonite clay? I need help I'm worried it will keep growing wider and deeper. Thanks for all you do!     Katie: Hello Dr. Cabral! I will always be a big fan and watch you daily! I feel that I have grown as a Nutritionist and have been able to help more people because of you. Keep fighting the good fight, we need you! I was wondering what your thoughts were on zeolite. I just started it and read that it can also remove parasite along with heavy metals. I did the Equi life metals and minerals test, and it showed high on mercury and aluminum. I am also going to do your heavy metal detox but want to do the maintenance with the zeolite. Always appreciate your feedback. Much love!     Mia: Hello! I discovered you on Mindpump and I love how you run all the tests with Sal, Justin and Adam. A few months ago you ran an epigenetics aging test to see what their biological age is. What test did you use with them?     Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!      - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3193 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Geographic atrophy is an advanced and severe form of dry age-related macular degeneration that, if left untreated, can lead to irreversible vision loss. Hear from guest expert Dr. Veeral Sheth about the latest treatments, research breakthroughs, and how to protect your vision.

Introduction: Kris and Jenn sit down with Karen Rellos, founder of Restored Hope Coaching and Redeeming Love Marriage Ministry. Karen, a certified betrayal trauma coach, joins the conversation to shed light on a topic that affects many relationships—Intimacy Deprivation, also known as Intimacy Atrophy (IA). With her extensive background in helping women navigate betrayal trauma, Karen offers valuable insights into the causes, impacts, and healing journey surrounding intimacy deprivation in relationships.Key Highlights:What is Intimacy Atrophy?Karen explains Intimacy Atrophy as a gradual loss of emotional, physical, or spiritual connection within a relationship. The term highlights the diminishing closeness and vulnerability in relationships, which can deeply impact both partners.Root Causes of Intimacy Deprivation:According to Karen, the root causes of Intimacy Atrophy often lie in unresolved emotional wounds, betrayal trauma, or avoidance of vulnerability. She discusses how individuals who struggle with intimacy deprivation may have past hurts or emotional blockages that prevent them from fully engaging in the relationship.Behaviors and Coping Mechanisms:Karen outlines common behaviors associated with intimacy deprivation, including emotional withdrawal, detachment, or the avoidance of meaningful connection. These coping mechanisms may develop as a way to shield oneself from emotional pain but ultimately contribute to a lack of closeness in the relationship.Impact on the Partner and Relationship:Karen explains how intimacy atrophy can lead to feelings of rejection, loneliness, and frustration in the partner who desires deeper connection, creating further strain and misunderstandings.Healing and Recovery:Karen emphasizes that healing from intimacy deprivation is possible. She describes the recovery process, which involves addressing the root causes, developing emotional awareness, and taking intentional steps toward rebuilding intimacy. A Word of Encouragement:In closing, Karen offers a heartfelt message to listeners, encouraging them to stay committed to the journey of healing and growth. She reminds them that it's possible to rekindle intimacy and build stronger, more fulfilling connections.Connect with Us:Karen Rellos: Restored Hope Coaching and Redeeming Love Marriage Ministry.Watermark CoachHealing with the HowiesFollow us on Instagram: @WatermarkCoachingThank you for listening!

In this video, I'll be sharing the most effective way I've found to work with perimenopausal symptoms using herbs and understanding your unique energetic constitution or tissue state. As a clinical herbalist, I believe that finding the right match can make all the difference. I'll introduce you to American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius)—an herb every woman entering perimenopause should consider for overall vitality, along with specific dosing tips. Plus, I'll dive into the four most common tissue states that often get out of balance during this stage: Excitation, Depression, Tension, and Atrophy. I'll guide you through how to identify these states in your body and share the best herbs to help restore balance, with dosing recommendations for each. I'll also cover commonly used herbs like Black Cohosh, Hops, and Dong Quai, explaining which specific patterns they work best with and how they can support your journey through perimenopause. I keep things lighthearted and easy to understand, so you can quickly discover the herbs that will help you feel more at ease and vibrant through this transition.

    Exploring the Efficacy of Autologous Platelet Leukocyte Rich Plasma Injections in Chronic Low Back Pain & Understanding Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis  Host David Rosenblum, MD  Episode Date: October 25, 2024 In this episode, Dr. David Rosenblum discusses two significant studies related to chronic low back pain and degenerative lumbar conditions. The first study focuses on the use of autologous platelet leukocyte rich plasma (PLRP) injections for treating atrophied lumbar multifidus muscles, while the second study investigates the correlation between muscle atrophy and the severity of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS).  Featured Article 1:  - Effect of Autologous Platelet Leukocyte Rich Plasma Injections on Atrophied Lumbar Multifidus Muscle in Low Back Pain Patients with Monosegmental Degenerative Disc Disease - **Authors:** Mohamed Hussein, Tamer Hussein    Key Points Discussed  1. Background:  Correlation between lumbar multifidus muscle dysfunction and chronic low back pain. 2.  Study Overview: 115 patients treated with weekly PLRP injections for six weeks, followed for 24 months. 3.  Outcome Measures:  Significant improvements in NRS and ODI scores, with high patient satisfaction. 4. Conclusions: PLRP injections into the atrophied multifidus muscle are safe and effective for managing chronic low back pain.  Featured Article 2:  -   Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis  Authors:*  Gen Xia, Xueru Li, Yanbing Shang, Bin Fu, Feng Jiang, Huan Liu, Yongdong Qiao  Key Points Discussed  1. Background:  DLSS is a common condition in older adults, often leading to muscle atrophy and disability. 2. Study Overview: A retrospective analysis involving 232 patients to investigate the correlation between muscle atrophy and spinal stenosis severity. 3.  Results:     - Significant differences in the ratio of fat-free multifidus muscle cross-sectional area between stenotic and non-stenotic segments.    - A strong positive correlation was found between multifidus atrophy and the severity of spinal stenosis.    - The atrophy was more pronounced on symptomatic sides of the spine compared to contralateral sides. 4.  Conclusions:  The findings suggest that more severe spinal stenosis is associated with greater muscle atrophy, emphasizing the importance of addressing muscle health in DLSS patients.  Discussion:  Dr. Rosenblum provides insights into how these studies inform clinical practices for treating chronic low back pain and managing degenerative conditions. He emphasizes the need for comprehensive treatment strategies that consider both muscle health and spinal integrity which may be achieved via peripheral nerve stimulation of the medial branch nerve and multifidus muscle or PRP injection in to the multifidus muscle.  Closing Remarks:  Listeners are encouraged to stay informed about innovative treatment options and the importance of muscle assessment in managing spinal disorders.   **Follow Us:** - Subscribe to the Painexam Podcast for more episodes discussing the latest in pain management research and treatments. - Connect with us on social media [insert social media links].

Summary In this conversation, Pete Taylor and Benjamin Owen delve into the themes of masculinity, wokeism, and the societal implications of these concepts. They discuss the cyclical nature of strength and weakness in society, the importance of strong male role models, and the challenges men face in navigating emotional conversations and setting boundaries. The dialogue emphasizes the need for men to embrace their roles as leaders and protectors while also being emotionally available and supportive. The conversation culminates in a call for continuous personal development and the importance of strong foundations for future generations. Takeaways Hard times create strong men, and this cycle influences society. Wokeism is perceived as failing to achieve true equality. Strong men are essential for creating a balanced society. The absence of strong male role models affects youth development. Emotional intelligence is crucial for modern masculinity. Setting boundaries is a key aspect of effective parenting. Anger can be a healthy expression when managed properly. Men must find a balance between vulnerability and strength. Media representation of masculinity often lacks positive role models. Continuous personal development is necessary for effective leadership.

In this episode, Katie Crane dives into the topic of pelvic floor health for women in menopause and post-menopause. She highlights the importance of recognizing the unique physical changes women experience as they age and how these changes impact pelvic floor health. Katie explains the role of hormonal shifts, particularly the decline in estrogen, which can cause pelvic floor atrophy and symptoms like vaginal dryness, discomfort during intercourse, and urinary issues. She stresses the value of Pilates professionals categorizing women based on age and hormonal stages to offer appropriate support. Additionally, Katie touches on the significance of nutrition, specifically the role of protein, in preserving muscle strength during menopause. Key Takeaways Recognizing bodily changes: It's vital for Pilates professionals to understand the specific physical changes that women face during menopause and post-menopause, particularly how these affect pelvic floor health. Hormonal impact: A decrease in estrogen can result in pelvic floor atrophy, which may lead to symptoms such as vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, and urinary complications. Age and hormonal categorization: Categorizing clients based on their age and hormonal state allows Pilates professionals to tailor their support to improve pelvic floor health. Nutrition's role: Protein intake becomes increasingly important during menopause, as it helps maintain muscle strength. Women may need to boost their protein consumption to meet these needs. Pilates exercises for pelvic health: Exercises focusing on breath work, dynamic core engagement, and working against gravity can effectively strengthen the pelvic floor and improve overall pelvic health.

If you have a pain in the ball of the foot, underneath the base of the toes, that is right where your fat pad cushioning is located.  There is a lot of misunderstanding about what fat pad atrophy really is, particularly when it is related to something like a plantar plate injury. Sometimes runners have true fat pad atrophy, but that is rare.  More often runners have fat pad displacement that feels like atrophy.  I think that fat pad displacement is more common than atrophy, and I am going to try to explain why.  What is the difference between fat pad atrophy and fat pad displacement in runners?  Well, that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.

Dr Steve, Dr Scott, and Tacie discuss: DVT SVT motorcycles and thrombi memory diabetes and dementia somogyi effect half life of psilocybin smelling smoke (phantosmia) HRT and testicle atrophy Summary from the AI (HAHA): Speakers discussed the Fluid community's generosity, with viewers gifting memberships and super chats. They reminisced about the positive, fun atmosphere at the recent Hackamania event, where podcasters who mock others off-air were actually very friendly and welcoming. The speakers also mentioned upcoming events like DabbleCon, where one will be the announcer for the Dabby Awards When it came to addressing viewer questions, there was some back-and-forth, but they ultimately provided advice about tapering off gabapentin for a herniated cervical disc. The speakers discuss the different grades of spinal disc herniations and the various treatment options. For mild herniations, they suggest trying epidurals, gentle stretching, and neck exercises However, for severe herniations, they note that surgical intervention may be necessary. The speakers also address a question about Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), a rare prion disease that can sometimes be transmitted through medical procedures, but is extremely uncommon. They reassure the listener that the risk of contracting CJD from their father's condition is very low The speakers discuss the potential risks of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), a rare and fatal prion disease. They explain that while CJD can sometimes occur sporadically or be inherited, it is unlikely to be spread through casual contact. The son is concerned about being tested, but the speakers advise that a genetic test is available if desired They also touch on the topic of sweating after exercise, noting that the body needs to dissipate the heat generated during physical activity. The speakers discuss the importance of sweating as a way to cool the body and regulate temperature. They also engage in some lighthearted banter, making references to their podcast and upcoming guests The speakers encourage listeners to take care of their health, such as checking for lumps, quitting smoking, and exercising regularly.

In an exhausting week, the Court released a number of long-awaited cases, and we had a consequential presidential debate. We look at several cases that many believe have profound implications for the administrative state; the opinions in SEC v. Jarkesy, and Loper Bright v. Raimondo clearly have the effect of increasing the role of courts and juries, among other things. We look at the opinions, the underlying themes, and the impact.  Meanwhile, following the debate, questions of presidential succession of several types, and of the vice president, are everywhere; these happen to be areas of Prof. Amar's expertise, and so we address them. NOTE: The Presidential Immunity case, Trump v. US, came down after we taped this episode; we have some early but important resources for you on this as well.  CLE credit is available from podcast.njsba.com.

Let me ask you to read 4 words and see how they land on you. Skinny, weak, atrophy, neglect.  As a runner, would you want any of those words used to describe you? When the fat pad cushion between the bones and the skin under the heel or the ball of the foot gets thinner, doctors call it “atrophy.”  But don't take it as an insult.  What really causes more atrophy of the fat pad cushion under the ball the foot in runners…inactivity, or too much activity? Well, that's what we are talking about today on the Doc On the Run Podcast!

If you aren't regularly utilizing your Working Geniuses, you won't be able to take full advantage of your strengths.  This week, Pat and the team discuss atrophy as it relates to the Working Genius model.     To listen to the At the Table Podcast: tinyurl.com/atthetablepodcast
