You're not alone—medical training often falls short.In this solo episode of Succeed in Medicine, Dr. Bradley Block shares how to distinguish between colds, bacterial sinusitis, allergies, and sinus migraines. With insights from years of clinical experience, on sinusitis as a secondary bacterial infection following viruses, not allergies or blockages. He covers "second sickness" patterns, why 10-day watchful waiting beats early antibiotics, migraine misdiagnoses, and treatments like nasal steroids for allergies versus surgery for fungal balls. Debunking myths like balloon sinuplasty for migraines. This episode equips physicians with practical tools to avoid overtreatment and improve patient outcomes, learn why facial pressure often points to migraines, when antibiotics are truly needed, and how to spot the “second sickness” pattern of sinus infections. Packed with practical tips and myth-busting, this episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating sinus issues or curious about ENT care.Three Actionable Takeaway:Sinusitis Starts with a Virus: Dr. Block explains bacterial sinusitis as a secondary infection after a cold disrupts sinus mucosa—watch for "second sickness" where symptoms worsen after initial improvement. Hold antibiotics for at least 10 days unless complications like orbital cellulitis arise.Facial Pressure Isn't Always Sinus: Often misdiagnosed as sinusitis, facial pressure (especially weather-related) signals migraines—Dr. Block advises checking for tenderness over sinuses and avoiding unnecessary CT scans or surgery like balloon sinuplasty, which treats mucosa issues poorly.Allergies vs. Sinusitis: Separate Issues: Allergies swell nasal mucosa but don't cause sinus infections due to insufficient allergen entry—treat with nasal steroids or immunotherapy. Fungal balls require surgery, not meds, as they're not true infections. About the Show:Succeed In Medicine  covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Host:Dr. Bradley Block – Dr. Bradley Block is a board-certified otolaryngologist at ENT and Allergy Associates in Garden City, NY.

Send us a textThe surprising link between oral bacteria and heart disease.Episode Summary: Dr. Pekka Karhunen explains the connection between oral bacteria, cholesterol, and cardiovascular disease, discussing how oxidized LDL cholesterol triggers inflammation in arteries, how bacteria from the mouth can infiltrate arterial plaques to form biofilms, and the implications for heart disease prevention through lifestyle changes like better oral hygiene.About the guest: Pekka Karhunen, MD, PhD is a medical doctor and forensic pathologist with decades of experience, specializing in cardiovascular diseases. He has created a unique biobank of coronary arteries from over 10,000 autopsies conducted in Finland. His research focuses on the role of bacteria in atherosclerosis, particularly through studying coronary artery plaques.Discussion Points:Cholesterol is essential for life, but oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is seen as a foreign substance by the immune system, leading to chronic inflammation in coronary arteries.Macrophages ingest oxidized LDL, turning into dysfunctional foam cells that contribute to plaque buildup, known as atheromas, in arteries.Plaque rupture, potentially caused by increased pressure from cholesterol accumulation or hemorrhage within the plaque, can trigger heart attacks.Bacteria, especially from the mouth, can enter arterial plaques via bacteremia (e.g., from dental procedures) and form biofilms, evading immune detection.Biofilms in plaques, made of extracellular matrix like polysaccharides, protect bacteria and may contribute to plaque instability or calcification over time.Poor oral hygiene is linked to higher cardiovascular disease risk, as bacteria from dental infections can enter plaques, suggesting dental care as a preventive measure.Karhunen's research found oral bacteria, like Viridans streptococci, in coronary plaques, with unpublished data also detecting gut and skin bacteria, indicating diverse bacterial involvement.Related content:M&M 247: Cholesterol: Immune Benefits, Heart Health, Statins & Research Malpractice | Uffe Ravnskov*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.

Amy MacIver is joined by Professor Elizabeth Mayne, a specialist haematologist and immunopathologist at the University of Cape Town, to unpack new research revealing how our immune system is influenced by light. A recent study from the University of Auckland found that neutrophils — the body’s most abundant white blood cells — are more effective at killing bacteria during the day, thanks to an internal, light-sensitive circadian clock. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.

What's the problem with antibiotics anyway? On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared passionately answers this question. There is no antibiotic that doesn't cause harm. That's not to say they don't have their place, but as Jared explains, they are almost never necessary and almost always prescribed for common problems like UTI's and sinus infections. You'll learn why many infections don't need, and won't respond to antibiotics, the ramifications of even a single dose of antibiotics, and how antibiotic superbugs are a real problem. Jared delves into why antibiotics are overused, side effects of particularly dangerous forms, and the effects on mental health and the immune system.

In this episode, we dive into the complexities of Bartonella, a genus of gram-negative, facultative intracellular bacteria known for its ability to evade the immune system and persist in host cells such as endothelial cells and erythrocytes. We explore the specific pathogenesis mechanisms of Bartonella henselae, including its interaction with cell adhesion molecules which facilitate its intracellular entry and survival. Additionally, we discuss the clinical manifestations and epidemiological significance of Bartonella as a common co-infection in Lyme disease patients, emphasizing its role in chronic symptoms such as swollen lymph nodes and vascular-related skin lesions. Topics: 1. Introduction - Overview of Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome and biotoxin illness. 2. Overview of Bartonella - Definition and general characteristics of Bartonella as a genus of gram-negative bacteria. - Explanation of facultative intracellular pathogens and their survival mechanisms. 3. Transmission Modes - Common vectors: fleas, lice, ticks, and the role of arthropod vectors in Bartonella transmission. - Other transmission routes: animal scratches/bites (particularly from cats), contaminated needles / blood transfusions. 4. Pathogenesis of Bartonella - Initial entry and dissemination through the circulatory system. - Predilection for endothelial cells and specific mechanisms of endothelial cell invasion. - Role of Bartonella adhesin A and its interaction with fibronectin and integrins. - Signaling pathways and cytoskeletal changes leading to endocytosis. 5. Immune Evasion and Infection Persistence - Intracellular residency in endothelial cells to evade neutrophils. - Ability to infect and persist in red blood cells and macrophages. - Impact on lymph nodes and immune response leading to swollen lymph nodes. 6. Clinical Manifestations - Specific diseases caused by different Bartonella species: - Bartonella henselae: Cat scratch fever - Bartonella quintana: Trench fever - Bartonella bacilliformis: Carrion's disease - Symptoms of Bartonella infections, including swollen lymph nodes, bone pain, and skin markings. - Severe cases leading to Bacillary Angiomatosis and vascular-related skin lesions. 7. Summary and Implications - Recap of Bartonella's impact as a Lyme co-infection. - Reminder of the diversity of Bartonella species and their varied clinical presentations. - Importance of tailored medical guidance due to the complexity of co-infections.

·       Nascentmc.com for medical writing assistance for your company.Visit nascentmc.com/podcast for full show notes Cilta-cel for Myeloma: The FDA approved ciltacabtagene autoleucel (Carvykti; cilta-cel) for adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have tried at least one prior therapy including a proteasome inhibitor and an immunomodulatory agent, and are refractory to lenalidomide. This CAR T-cell therapy, initially approved in 2022, was confirmed effective in the phase 3 CARTITUDE-4 study, showing significant reduction in disease progression or death risk by 59% compared to standard care. Enhertu for HER2-positive Solid Tumors: Fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki (Enhertu) received FDA approval for treating unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive solid tumors in adults who have had previous systemic treatment and lack satisfactory alternative options. This therapy, a conjugate of an anti-HER2 antibody and a cytotoxic drug, was first approved in 2019 and targets HER2-expressing cancer cells to potentially minimize damage to normal tissues. Fanapt for Bipolar: Iloperidone (Fanapt) has been approved for the acute treatment of manic or mixed episodes in adults with bipolar I disorder. Previously approved for schizophrenia, iloperidone targets neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin. It demonstrated efficacy in a pivotal trial, showing significant improvement on the Young Mania Rating Scale. Zevtera for Multiple Bacterial Infections: Ceftobiprole medocaril sodium (Zevtera) was approved for treating adults with Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infections, right-sided infective endocarditis, and acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections. Also approved for pediatric community-acquired bacterial pneumonia, ceftobiprole is a broad-spectrum cephalosporin that combats various bacteria including MRSA. TriClip for Tricuspid Regurgitation: The FDA approved the TriClip™ transcatheter edge-to-edge repair system for treating tricuspid regurgitation. This minimally invasive option clips the tricuspid valve leaflets to improve blood flow and prevent the need for surgery. The TRILUMINATE Pivotal trial showed significant improvements in TR severity and quality of life with a good safety profile. Revumenib for Acute Leukemia: The FDA granted priority review to revumenib (SNDX-5613) for treating adult and pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia with KMT2A rearrangements. As a new therapeutic agent, revumenib inhibits the menin-MLL protein interaction crucial in leukemic transformation. Early trial results show promising remission rates, with a PDUFA action date scheduled for September 26, 2024.

A new, real-world evidence study of patients with Gram-negative infections showed that early intervention with Fetroja® (cefiderocol) significantly reduced in-hospital all-cause mortality. This real-world evidence, drawn from a retrospective analysis of 275 seriously ill patients, emphasizes the critical importance of timely treatment.    The retrospective multicenter observational study showed earlier treatment resulted in a reduction in in-hospital all-cause mortality (IHACM) in patients with Gram-negative infections who previously received other antibiotics, including those with difficult-to-treat pathogens that were resistant to other antibiotics.   Here is a link to the press release with a summary of the results presented by Shionogi at ID Week in October.   We interview Thomas Lodise, PharmD, PhD, Associate Professor, Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, to delve deeper into these results. Dr. Lodise discusses the implications of this study for hospital pharmacists as it sheds light on the potential clinical utility of Fetroja in the treatment of difficult-to-treat adult patients with culture-confirmed Gram-negative infections.
