To find out, Dr. Charles Turck speaks with Dr. Petros Grivas about the key findings from the phase 3 NIAGARA trial. Together, they explore how perioperative durvalumab impacts circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) clearance and clinical outcomes, including event-free and overall survival. Their conversation also highlights the prognostic value of ctDNA and the potential for urinary tumor DNA to more closely correlate with pathologic complete response. Dr. Grivas is a Professor in the Division of Hematology and Oncology at the University of Washington School of Medicine, as well as the Clinical Research Division at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, where he's also the Medical Director of the International Program and of local and regional outreach.
Circulating your sexual energy might sound a bit out there… but this is one of the most powerful things you can learn as a man.Most guys experience sex as a build-up → release → depletion cycle. A few minutes of pleasure… then it's over, and the energy is gone.But when you learn how to circulate that energy instead of just releasing it, everything changes.You can experience full-body orgasms, sustain arousal without losing control, and actually build energy through sex instead of draining yourself.In this video, I go deep into what it really means to circulate sexual energy — not just the beginner-level “breathe it up and down” stuff, but the deeper principles that actually make this work.In this video you'll learn:• What sexual energy actually is (beyond just arousal)• Why most men feel drained after sex• How to redirect sexual energy through your body• The role of the microcosmic orbit and energy channels• Why force-based techniques don't work long-term• How to develop real sensitivity to your body and energy• The shift from mechanical technique → embodied awarenessGet my FREE Ebook - 3 Techniques for Legendary Ejaculation Control:

Circulating around the internet right now, is the bold claim that Israel is bombing Christian villages in Lebanon. The insinuation is that Israel is purposely targeting Christians, because Israel has a particular hatred for anything Christian in the Middle East. And as odd as it might sound, it's actually true. At least the bombing part is. The reason though? Very different from what people are claiming. Also it looks like Israel has eliminated 1,800 Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon, which is incredible.

In this JCO Precision Oncology Article Insights episode, host Dr. Jiasen He summaries the article, "Longitudinal Evaluation of Circulating Tumor DNA as a Prognostic Biomarker to Detect Molecular Residual Disease in Germ Cell Tumors," by Hassoun et al. TRANSCRIPT Jiasen He: Hello, and welcome to the JCO Precision Oncology Article Insights. I'm your host, Jiasen He, and today, we'll be discussing the JCO Precision Oncology article, "Longitudinal Evaluation of Circulating Tumor DNA as a Prognostic Biomarker to Detect Molecular Residual Disease in Germ Cell Tumors," by Dr. Rebecca Hassoun and colleagues. Traditionally, treatment response for solid tumors has relied on imaging, which focuses on visible anatomic changes in the tumor. However, imaging does not always reflect molecular or cellular changes and cannot detect microscopic disease, which is clinically important and often linked to relapse. Liquid biopsy, on the other hand, is minimally invasive and can be used for cancer monitoring by analyzing circulating biomarkers in biofluids such as blood. One type of liquid biopsy is circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA, which measures small fragments of DNA released by tumor cells into the bloodstream. ctDNA can allow precise monitoring of tumor-specific mutations and be a powerful tool for assessing treatment responses. ctDNA has already been applied in clinical settings for cancers such as non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer, etcetera. However, there is still limited data on the use of ctDNA for germ cell tumors. Germ cell tumors are the most common malignancy affecting men aged 15 to 35 years. Accurate risk stratification and disease monitoring is key to risk-adapted therapy, maximizing the chance of cure while minimizing side effects. One unique tool we use currently for diagnosis, staging, and monitoring is serum tumor markers, such as AFP, beta-hCG, and LDH. However, these markers have limitations, including false elevation in certain clinical scenarios, and studies have shown that they can be normal in up to 40 percent of patients with germ cell tumor. This creates an unmet need for other sensitive and specific biomarkers to improve patient care. In this paper, the authors investigated the use of ctDNA in a cohort of patients with germ cell tumor at various disease time points. They compared ctDNA results with traditional serum tumor markers to evaluate whether ctDNA can predict relapse and survival outcomes. This multi-institutional retrospective study included patients with stage I, II, and III germ cell tumors, primarily testicular cancer, who had at least one ctDNA test result. ctDNA was evaluated longitudinally at different time points, including pre-orchiectomy, during the molecular residual disease, or MRD, window, defined as 1 to 12 weeks post-orchiectomy but before primary therapy, and during the surveillance window, defined as more than 12 weeks post-orchiectomy or follow retroperitoneal lymph node dissection or post-chemotherapy. ctDNA analysis was performed using a tumor-informed 16 multiplex PCR next-generation sequencing assay. A total of 324 plasma samples were analyzed from 74 patients in this cohort. The majority had stage I disease, around 40 percent, and nonseminomatous histology, around 70 percent. 15 patients were evaluated in the pre-orchiectomy window, and only one patient tested negative for ctDNA. This patient had stage I disease. The authors further assessed ctDNA positivity in both the MRD window and surveillance window, evaluating its association with event-free survival. They found that ctDNA outperformed serum tumor markers in both settings. ctDNA positivity was associated with significantly worse event-free survival compared with ctDNA-negative patients. Among the 14 patients with stage II to III disease who had ctDNA assessed in both the MRD window and surveillance window, nine patients consistently had a negative ctDNA or converted from positive to negative over time. In contrast, five patients demonstrated persistent ctDNA positivity, and all of these patients subsequently relapsed. Among the 38 patients who had both ctDNA and serum tumor marker tests during the MRD window, nine patients showed discordant biomarker results. Of these, 6 patients were ctDNA-negative but serum tumor marker-positive, and one of them experienced recurrence. Three patients were ctDNA-positive but serum tumor marker-negative, and one of these patients also recurred. During the surveillance window, 46 patients had both biomarkers available, and 10 showed discordant results. Three patients were ctDNA-negative but serum tumor marker-positive, and none of them recurred. In contrast, all seven patients who were ctDNA-positive but serum tumor marker-negative experienced recurrence. This intriguing data strongly support the potential role of ctDNA in patients with stage I, II, and III germ cell tumors. However, as the authors noted, the retrospective nature of the study presents limitations, as treatment approaches, imaging schedules, and the timing of testing were not standardized, and ctDNA testing varies among participating institutions. Larger prospective trials with standardized protocols and long-term follow-up will be essential to validate these findings and determine how ctDNA can be reliably integrated into clinical practice.

The Zone of Proximal Development for money mentors (learning from someone just ahead of you). Fun, fast exercises: "Hot Money Bummers → Wouldn't It Be Nice…," playful income reframes, and saying "thank you, I receive that." Circulating energy: clothing swaps, donating, and finding the money you forgot you had. Book sneak peek: Abundance Mindset Magic—the fun, feminine & magical way to manifest money and open yourself to receive. Try-it-now prompts Compliment practice: For 7 days reply, "Thank you—I receive that." Notice what shifts. Reframe your income: Write the funnest way to describe how you currently make money—and one way you'd love to. Clear & circulate: Unused items → swap/donate to create space for new inflow.

Brock and Salk talk through the elements of what makes a team a Super Bowl team and how much of it the Seahawks have on their roster. They then look at a handful of names that the Mariners could trade for, especially with the MLB Winter Meetings coming up next week. In Blue 88, Brock analyzes more on the Seahawks culture, Mike Macdonald discussing the Vikings defense and the University of Colorado athletic department.
Send us a textHow mitochondria travel between cells and how this hidden communication shapes metabolism, immunity, and even potential therapies.Episode Summary: Dr. Jon Brestoff talks about mitochondrial dynamics inside cells, their transfer between unrelated cells (distinct from inheritance during division), and its roles in adipose tissue communication, macrophage cleanup, and systemic metabolic signaling; they explore how high-fat diets disrupt this process, potential hormetic benefits, therapeutic mitochondria transplantation for diseases like Leigh syndrome and obesity, and broader immunometabolism crosstalk.About the guest: Jon Brestoff, MD, PhD is an associate professor of pathology and immunology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, where he directs the Initiative for Immunometabolism.Discussion Points:Mitochondria per cell range from ~100-5000; they move via fusion/fission, vertical inheritance (cell division), or horizontal transfer without division.Transfer mechanisms: free release, extracellular vesicles, or tunneling nanotubes using cytoskeleton transport.In healthy fat tissue, adipocytes routinely donate mitochondria to macrophages for degradation (quality control); high-fat (lard-based, long-chain FA) diets block macrophage uptake, diverting mitochondria to other organs.Diverted mitochondria may induce “mito-hormesis” (mild oxidative stress boosting antioxidants) or signal adipocyte metabolic status inter-organ.Mitochondria transplantation shows promise in animal models for ischemia-reperfusion, obesity, and mitochondrial diseases.Immune cells prefer glycolysis but have low mitochondrial biomass; transplanted mitochondria tilt T-cells toward anti-inflammatory regulatory phenotype.Circulating cell-free mitochondria rival immune cell numbers.Obesity inflammation stems from dying oversized adipocytes releasing lipids/mitochondria, forming crown-like structures with pro-inflammatory macrophages.Leigh syndrome from genetic mutations disrupting the electron transport chain.Transfer may be an evolutionary relic of endosymbiosis; cells may selectively use exogenous mitochondria like a “generator” during metabolic crisis.Reference Paper:Study: The power and potential of mitochondria transferRelated Episode:M&M 260: Energy Resistance Principle in Life, Healing & Disease | Martin Picard & Nirosha MuruganSupport 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.
