What do the KGB and the former CEO of Cincinnati Children's Hospital have in common? At different times, they’ve each looked to a guy named Eugene Litvak for help. He only said yes to Cincinnati — but he saved that hospital more than a hundred million dollars a year. For the last few decades, Litvak – a Soviet émigré with a PhD in math – has been on a mission: save U.S. hospitals from financial ruin, and improve the lives of doctors, nurses, and patients. He says he has just the formula to do it, lots of prominent experts agree, and he’s documented impressive results so far: Financial savings, fewer hospital-related deaths, lower staff turnover, and shorter wait times. But Litvak and his allies are still struggling to convince more hospital CEOs to try his method. We talk with Litvak about his wild life story and how he found the fix that he says could revolutionize American hospitals. And we speak with experts to determine why more hospitals don’t try it. Here’s a transcript of this episode. Send your stories and questions. Or call 724 ARM-N-LEG. Of course we’d love for you to support this show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kim and marc discuss a deeply troubling case where a 12-year-old girl, who has been receiving treatment at Cincinnati Children's Hospital for nearly a decade, is denied a heart transplant because she isn't vaccinated against COVID-19 and the flu. The family, which has already adopted the girl with a known heart condition, is devastated by the policy, which is framed as a safety measure despite mounting evidence against the COVID vaccine's effectiveness. The situation also draws attention to the broader implications of COVID-era policies still affecting healthcare decisions and the connection between vaccine mandates, big pharma, and hospital systems.

Good Morning from the Marc Cox Morning Show! This hour, Marc & Kim unpack the latest scandal involving Biden's EPA, revealing how $20 billion in taxpayer money was quietly funneled into outside financial institutions, including $7 billion to the Climate United Fund. Was this a last-minute cash grab before Trump took office? Plus, they dive into the troubling case of a 12-year-old girl denied a heart transplant at Cincinnati Children's Hospital due to COVID-19 and flu vaccination requirements. With growing concerns over the efficacy of the COVID vaccine, the situation sheds light on the lasting impact of government policies on healthcare decisions. Finally, Marc & Kim discuss the disappointment in Republicans voting against President Trump's cabinet nominees, and Trump's bold move to downsize the federal workforce. #GovernmentCorruption #BidenBudget #HeartlessHospitals #COVIDPolicy #TrumpNominees #RepublicanLeadership #ConservativePodcast #TaxpayerFunds #MedicalMandates #SaveTheChildren

Co-hosts Ryan Piansky, a graduate student and patient advocate living with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and eosinophilic asthma, and Holly Knotowicz, a speech-language pathologist living with EoE who serves on APFED's Health Sciences Advisory Council, interview Dr. Margaret Collins, a professor of pathology at the University of Cincinnati and a staff pathologist at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. Dr. Collins was a member of the task force that produced the Guidelines on Childhood EGIDs Beyond EoE. In this interview, Dr. Collins discusses the guidelines and how they were created and shares some of the results, including an algorithm for diagnosing non-EoE EGIDs. She shares why she specialized in EGIDs and what her hopes are for the future development of the guidelines. Disclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is designed to support, not replace the relationship that exists between listeners and their healthcare providers. Opinions, information, and recommendations shared in this podcast are not a substitute for medical advice. Decisions related to medical care should be made with your healthcare provider. Opinions and views of guests and co-hosts are their own.   Key Takeaways: [:49] Ryan Piansky introduces the episode, brought to you thanks to the support of Education Partners Bristol Myers Squibb, GSK, Sanofi, and Regeneron, and co-host, Holly Knotowicz.   [1:13] Holly introduces today's topic, guidelines for childhood eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGIDs) beyond eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).   [1:27] Holly introduces today's guest, Dr. Margaret Collins, a professor of pathology at the University of Cincinnati and a staff pathologist at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.   [1:38] Dr. Collins specializes in the pathology of pediatric gastrointestinal disease, especially EGIDs, and is a central pathology reviewer for the Consortium of Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Researchers (CEGIR), as well as a member of APFED's Health Sciences Advisory Council.   [2:11] As a pathologist, Dr. Collins examines biopsies microscopically. For EGIDs, she determines the peak count of eosinophils per high-power field, or reports the numbers of eosinophils in multiple high-power fields, and analyzes the tissue for additional abnormalities.   [2:33] Dr. Collins then issues a report that becomes part of the patient's medical record and is provided to the patient's doctor.   [2:41] The biopsies Dr. Collins examines may be the first biopsies for a diagnosis, or follow-up biopsies to determine response to therapy, or as part of ongoing monitoring to determine if inflammation has returned even if the patient has no symptoms.   [3:07] Dr. Collins was inspired to specialize in EGIDs after speaking with patients with EGIDs. She used to give tours of the pathology lab at Cincinnati Children's Hospital. She met affected children and their caregivers. Their courage and gratitude moved her.   [3:43] Ryan mentions the wonderful patients and their families in the APFED community. Holly says that as a patient, it's fascinating to meet a pathologist. Pathologists are generally behind the scenes.   [4:42] Dr. Collins specializes in GI pathology, including eosinophilic-related conditions in the GI tract. EoE, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic enteritis, and eosinophilic colitis.   [5:16] In January 2024, “Guidelines on Childhood EGIDs Beyond EoE” were published in the Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition. Dr. Collins served on the task force that prepared the guidelines.   [5:35] Non-EoE EGIDs affect all sites of the GI tract except the esophagus. All sites of the GI tract except the esophagus normally have eosinophils in the mucosa, which complicates the diagnosis.   [6:03] Like EoE, the diagnosis of non-EoE EGIDs is made after known causes of tissue eosinophilia are excluded.   [6:28] Consensus guidelines help bring attention to best practices and encourage uniformity of practices.    [6:50] This is especially important for rare diseases and for centers that see fewer patients with rare diseases than the more specialized centers. Guidelines based on the best information available help these centers.   [8:03] The best distribution of guidelines is to publish them in the medical literature and sometimes in multiple journals to target audiences of allergists, gastroenterologists, and pathologists. Guidelines may be presented at national meetings to increase awareness.   [8:36] Several specialties are involved in the care of patients who have EGIDs. If patients or caregivers learn of published guidelines, they can also inform their providers.   [9:23] Insurance is a big issue for so many patients. Getting coverage for both diagnostic and treatment options can be complex.    [9:50] The guidelines may be helpful to insurance companies to accept that a certain drug is needed by a patient with a certain condition. However, if the sequence suggested in the guidelines is not followed, there may be difficulty getting coverage in the U.S.   [11:11] Patients can advocate for themselves with insurance companies by explaining that the order of testing is not important but getting the recommended tests done is important.    [11:55] The greatest challenge the task force faced was the lack of large clinical studies and quality research reports. We're making progress in this field but we're at the beginning. Dr. Collins is hopeful that progress will be made in the next two to three years.   [12:24] When there were knowledge gaps, the task force filled them in with their published research and their own experiences. It's always reassuring to have a well-conducted clinical study that verifies that your thinking is correct.   [13:29] How long did it take the task force to create these guidelines? Longer than they wanted it to take! The years they put into composing these guidelines were greater due to the interruption caused by the [COVID] pandemic. They all felt good when they finished.   [14:18] The guidelines were written by 26 authors from five continents. These are international guidelines.   [14:44] Dr. Collins highlights the pathology. The guidelines state that non-EoE EGIDs should be considered clinicopathologic diagnoses, as EoE is, meaning that biopsies from the affected site in the bowel must show excess eosinophils.   [15:10] The guidelines, for the first time, recommend threshold eosinophil values for a diagnosis in the parts of the GI tract other than the esophagus. For a diagnosis of EoE, a threshold value of greater than or equal to 15 eosinophils per high-power field.    [15:36] The guidelines now recommend that for a diagnosis of eosinophilic gastritis, a threshold value of greater than or equal to 30 eosinophils per high-power field is present.   [15:48] For a diagnosis of eosinophilic duodenitis, a threshold value of greater than or equal to 50 eosinophils per high-power field. For a diagnosis of eosinophilic ileitis, a threshold value of greater than or equal to 60 eosinophils per high-power field.   [16:03] For a diagnosis of eosinophilic colitis in the right colon, a threshold value of greater than or equal to 100 eosinophils per high-power field. For a diagnosis of eosinophilic colitis in the transverse and descending colon, a threshold value of greater than or equal to 80 eosinophils per high-power field. [16:12] For a diagnosis in the rectosigmoid, a threshold of greater than or equal to 60 eosinophils per high-power field.   [16:18] These numbers may change over time. One or more thresholds will likely change as we gain more experience with these diseases. The pattern won't change.   [16:29] Several studies have shown that the normal pattern of eosinophil presence in the mucosa in the GI tract is that the number increases from the stomach to the right colon and then decreases throughout the colon to the rectosigmoid.   [17:40] When giving tours of the hospital, Dr. Collins found that people understood better when they knew the numbers and could see the slides of their biopsies.   [18:48] Dr. Collins found literature reviews that suggested that the GI mucosa was often normal in non-EoE EGIDs. She believes that in the next few years, as we publish more and gain more experience, we will realize that is not the case.   [19:14] There is already a method for scoring the mucosa in the stomach in eosinophilic gastritis (EoG) and there are abnormalities found in a majority of patients. We have to work on the rest of the GI tract.   [19:35] Dr. Collins was surprised that there's not very good information about the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) in eosinophilic gastritis and eosinophilic duodenitis. There haven't been studies about that. We need to work on that, too.   [20:47] Dr. Collins isn't sure we can recognize misconceptions about non-EoE EGIDs at this point. It might be premature to label any belief as a misconception. We thought that eosinophils were responsible for all symptoms in EoE, but we know now that is not true.   [21:10] Dr. Collins thinks we need to wait a bit before we decide that we know for sure all about non-EoE EGIDs. Ryan is excited to learn what the research will show us next.   [21:44] Holly loved learning about the algorithm in the guidelines.   [22:01] Dr. Collins says this is the first effort to create uniformity in the way in which non-EoE EGIDs are diagnosed. This algorithm can change over time. It provides signposts for the diagnosis, based on the information we have currently.   [22:20] The diagnosis of non-EoE EGIDs should rest on symptoms and the detection of dense eosinophilic inflammation in the mucosa by biopsy and the absence of evidence of other diseases, such as parasitic and other diseases, that might cause dense eosinophilic inflammation in the GI tract.   [22:46] The algorithm suggests that the particular anatomic site or sites in the GI tract responsible for the symptoms should be determined, for example, eosinophilic gastritis or eosinophilic colitis.   [23:03] The algorithm also suggests that the involved part of the wall in the involved anatomic site should be identified.   [23:13] For example, if the symptoms are suggestive of mucosal disease, without deeper mural or wall involvement, the clinical investigation can proceed directly to endoscopy.   [23:26] However, if symptoms suggest partial or complete bowel obstruction, which is typical of deep muscular involvement, then imaging studies should be considered before proceeding to endoscopy, to confirm or refute that there is a bowel obstruction.   [23:47] If the obstruction is identified, a full-thickness biopsy of the bowel wall may be indicated, possibly requiring a non-endoscopic surgical procedure. If obstruction is not identified, then the investigation can proceed to endoscopy.   [24:05] If there is abdominal distension, suggestive of fluid accumulation, consideration should be given to sampling the fluid, using a needle to pull some fluid out to determine if there are numerous eosinophils in the fluid that would indicate eosinophilic ascites, with the eosinophilic inflammation involving the outer lining of the bowel wall.   [24:41] The signposts are a little involved. They are a reasonable way to approach working up a diagnosis of non-EoE EGIDs.   [25:34] How is EoE ruled out before using this algorithm? It's sometimes difficult to distinguish symptoms that are relevant only to the esophagus and symptoms that are relevant only to the stomach.   [26:26] Someone with upper tract symptoms only will have an upper tract endoscopy, especially if that person has mucosal symptoms that seem to be relevant to the mucosa only. The best thing is to take biopsies of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum to be sure where the eosinophil infiltrate is.   [27:06] If the person has lower tract involvement only, such as diarrhea and lower abdominal pain, and no upper tract symptoms, a transnasal endoscopy could be used to determine if there is EoE in addition to the non-EoE EGIDs. Each case is different.   [29:12] As a pathologist, Dr. Collins has seen the guidelines for treating eosinophilic conditions evolve. They've become more specific as our knowledge of the data concerning the disease has increased. PPIs are now considered a treatment for EoE.   [30:12] Dr. Collins says we need clinical trials testing therapies in children and adults with non-EoE EGIDs. We need to determine which patients have single-site disease and will only have single-site disease, and which patients may develop multi-site EGIDs.   [30:42] Those aspects will be addressed in the next version of CEGIR, if it's funded.   [30:49] Ryan tells Dr. Collins it's been fantastic having her on the show. This has been a good overview of non-EoE EGIDs and the new methods clinicians are looking into to help people get a better diagnosis and treatment.   [31:11] Dr. Collins says we don't have validated instruments yet to measure symptoms, evaluate the mucosa, and evaluate the biopsies under the microscopes. We need to create those validated tools to help us determine the significance of our findings.   [31:31] Some data strongly suggest that eosinophilic colitis is different from the rest of the EGIDs; certainly from the upper tract EGIDs. We need to move more deeply into what eosinophilic colitis actually is.   [32:05] For our listeners, feel free to check out the article we've been mentioning in the show notes. We'll include a link to it.   [32:11] For those of you who would like to learn more about eosinophilic disorders, please visit APFED.org and check out the links in the show notes.   [32:18] If you're looking to find a specialist who treats eosinophilic disorders, we encourage you to use APFED's Specialist Finder at APFED.org/specialist.   [32:27] If you'd like to connect with others impacted by eosinophilic diseases, please join APFED's online community on the Inspire Network at APFED.org/connections.   [32:36] Ryan thanks Dr. Collins for joining us today for this great conversation.

Collins   “We don't have validated instruments yet to measure symptoms [for non-EoE EGIDs], evaluate the mucosa, and evaluate the biopsies under the microscopes.
