In this episode we hear about an emergency presentation to a South Australian hospital, of a 74-year-old male with shortness of breath. The curve ball is that he had undergone ablation for drug-refractory atrial fibrillation less than two weeks prior. This discussion gives an overview of developing technologies for AF treatment and developing knowledge about the possible complications. We also have some multiple choice questions to test your understanding.Guest Dr Shaun Evans, FRACP (Royal Adelaide Hospital; University of Adelaide) HostsAssociate Professor Stephen Bacchi (Massachusetts General Hospital; University of Adelaide)Jasmine Le (University of Adelaide) ProductionProduced by Stephen Bacchi and Mic Cavazzini.

This case report comes to you from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, a huge teaching hospital that serves the Harvad Medical School. The 52-year-old female presented with clumsiness and paresthesia of the right hand that had persisted for several days. She also had a headache and three weeks prior to presentation had undergone a suboccipital craniotomy for a Chiari I malformation. To complicate things, there was a past medical history of migraines and a family history of a Factor V Leiden mutation. The identified diagnosis is one in which evidence is limited for aspects of management, and the topics of uncertainty and mentorship in medicine also arise in this discussion.Guest Galina Gheihman, MD D (Brigham and Women's Hospital; Harvard Medical School) HostsAssociate Professor Stephen Bacchi (Massachusetts General Hospital; University of Adelaide)HaeLynn Gim (Harvard Medical School) ProductionProduced by Stephen Bacchi and Mic Cavazzini.

In 2019 a man was referred to Royal Adelaide Hospital with worsening breathlessness and a productive cough. He was a 47 year old electrician with a history of tobacco smoking who'd been well before the onset of symptoms. Over a couple of admissions the patient's condition progressed to type 2 respiratory failure. While the ultimate explanation for this presentation was a bit of a unicorn, the dramatic escalation of examinations and interventions runs through some textbook respiratory medicine; ECMO, infectious diseases, bronchoscopy, CT, interpretation of blood gases and the alveolar gas equation, stenting and ultimately transplantation. This is discussed in the careful manner expected of a long-case presentation in the physician training exams.GuestDr Thomas Crowhurst FRACP (Northern Adelaide Local Health Network)HostsAssociate Professor Stephen Bacchi (Lyell McEwin Hospital; University of Adelaide)Dr Brandon Stretton (Central Adelaide Local Health Network)ProductionProduced by Stephen Bacchi and Mic Cavazzini.

This case report has been developed by Trainees, to assist their peers with preparation of long-case presentations. It is not a fully-vetted Education resource but a “passion project” from editors of the Pomegranate Health podcasts. The case is that of a 32-year-old woman presenting with constant and dull abdominal pain that had been sudden in onset. The pain is accompanied by nausea and vomiting but bowel habits were unchanged. The patient has a history of type 1 diabetes and a simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant two years prior to the presentation. There is no history of rejection of pancreatitis and serum creatinine appears normal. The attending nephrologist walks through the elimination of differential diagnoses typical of any patient and also of particular relevance to a transplant patient.

Key Reference and learning points (spoiler alert)The Role of Tocilizumab in Glucocorticoid Resistant Giant Cell Arteritis: A Case Series and Literature Review [J Neuroophthalmol. 2023;43(1)] 1. This case underscores the critical nature of timely diagnosis and aggressive treatment in conditions like giant cell arteritis (GCA), where delayed treatment can lead to irreversible complications such as vision loss. Thorough history taking and clinical acumen are still key elements in establishing a diagnosis of GCA.2. The patient's initial response and subsequent decline in vision illustrate the need for ongoing monitoring and readiness to adapt the treatment approach. It also shows the necessity of close monitoring of inflammatory markers and clinical symptoms.3. Amaurosis fugax warrants urgent referral to an ophthalmologist.4. High index of suspicion for GCA and prompt referral of GCA suspects will ensure best outcome for patients.5. Progressive visual loss and elevated inflammatory markers should alert the clinician to glucocorticoid-resistant GCA.6. The effectiveness of tocilizumab in this case highlights its role as a valuable treatment option for refractory GCA, especially when traditional therapies are not sufficiently effective. Targeted biologic agents may open up new treatment approaches in the future particularly in patients with progressive visual loss despite administration of intravenous methylprednisolone. 7. Managing complex cases like GCA often requires a collaborative approach involving rheumatologists, ophthalmologists, and other specialists to ensure comprehensive care and optimal outcomes.8. There is often value in case reports to start the evidence cascade that is required to bring new, life altering treatments to the forefront.

Karthik Soora and Hena Rafiq are two of the co-founders of the They See Blue Texas Chapter. They See Blue is a National organization mobilizing South Asian Americans to help Democrats win races. Hear more about how their organization engages the South Asian community. With less than three months until the election, and amidst a pandemic, they are motivating South Asian Texans to vote for Democrats, and that Texas state races matter in addition to the Presidential and National races, reminding folks that politics is local. WiseUp TX is a non-partisan organization and does not support any political party or candidate.
The smarter politics that is emerging in America recognizes that every elected position has the potential to serve as a platform for transformational change, and that is especially true of city council posts. City councillors govern from the intersection of grassroots engagement and policy. If they do it right, they can remake local, state, and national debates. Few city councilmembers know this better than Austin’s Greg Casar. Casar came to Austin as an activist, he recognized quickly the potential of the city council, and got elected at the age of twenty-five, the youngest city councillor in Austin history. Since then, he has pursued groundbreaking struggles for worker rights, immigrant rights, and economic justice, and there have been amazing victories. This week, Greg Casar is our guest on Next Left.

Blue Texas: The Making of a Multiracial Democratic Coalition in the Civil Rights Era (University of North Carolina Press, 2016) is about the “other” Texas, not the state known for its cowboy conservatism, but a mid-twentieth-century hotbed of community organizing, liberal politics, and civil rights activism. Beginning in the 1930s, the author tells the story of the decades-long struggle for democracy in Texas, when African American, Mexican American, and white labor and community activists gradually came together to empower the states marginalized minorities. At the ballot box and in the streets, these diverse activists demanded not only integration but economic justice, labor rights, and real political power for all. Their efforts gave rise to the Democratic Coalition of the 1960s, a militant, multiracial alliance that would take on and eventually overthrow both Jim Crow and Juan Crow. Using rare archival sources and original oral history interviews, historian Max Krochmal reveals the often-overlooked democratic foundations and liberal tradition of one of our nation's most conservative states. Blue Texas recalls the many forgotten activists who, by crossing racial lines and building coalitions, democratized their cities and state to a degree that would have been unimaginable just a decade earlier and shows why their story still matters today. Max Krochmal is an associate professor of history and founding director of Comparative Race and Ethnic Studies at Texas Christian University. Krochmal is also the founder and director of the Civil Rights in Black and Brown Oral History Project, a statewide collaborative research initiative and digital humanities website that received a collaborative research grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. His research and teaching center on African American and Chicano/a-Latino/a civil rights and labor histories and their present-day ramifications. Krochmal is a native of Reno, Nevada, and attended undergraduate at the University of California at Santa Cruz before earning his M.A. and Ph.D. from Duke University. James P. Stancil II is an educator, multimedia journalist, and writer.

Max Krochmal is an associate professor of history and founding director of Comparative Race and Ethnic Studies at Texas Christian University. Krochmal is also the founder and director of the Civil Rights in Black and Brown Oral History Project, a statewide collaborative research initiative and digital humanities website that received a collaborative research grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. His research and teaching center on African American and Chicano/a-Latino/a civil rights and labor histories and their present-day ramifications. Krochmal is a native of Reno, Nevada, and attended undergraduate at the University of California at Santa Cruz before earning his M.A. and Ph.D. from Duke University. James P. Stancil II is an educator, multimedia journalist, and writer. He is also the President and CEO of Intellect U Well, Inc. a Houston-area NGO dedicated to increasing the joy of reading and media literacy in young people.

Blue Texas: The Making of a Multiracial Democratic Coalition in the Civil Rights Era (University of North Carolina Press, 2016) is about the “other” Texas, not the state known for its cowboy conservatism, but a mid-twentieth-century hotbed of community organizing, liberal politics, and civil rights activism. Beginning in the 1930s, the author tells the story of the decades-long struggle for democracy in Texas, when African American, Mexican American, and white labor and community activists gradually came together to empower the states marginalized minorities. At the ballot box and in the streets, these diverse activists demanded not only integration but economic justice, labor rights, and real political power for all. Their efforts gave rise to the Democratic Coalition of the 1960s, a militant, multiracial alliance that would take on and eventually overthrow both Jim Crow and Juan Crow.
