Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP Guest: Hank Mayer, MD Patients with neuromuscular conditions often exhibit respiratory symptoms that impact their airway clearance and gas exchange, making it increasingly difficult for them to breathe. However, effective assessment techniques and early intervention can help mitigate the progression of this dysfunction, potentially keeping patients from needing extended recovery time or even inpatient care. Joining Dr. Charles Turck to discuss the importance of informed, proactive intervention for respiratory symptoms in patients with neuromuscular conditions is Dr. Hank Mayer. Dr. Mayer is the Medical Director of the Pulmonary Function Laboratory at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and a Professor of Clinical Pediatrics at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine.

A 2019 report showed that police violence is a leading cost of death for young Black men in the United States. About one in every 1,000 Black men can expect to be killed by the police, with the highest risk amongst all ethnic groups and genders between the ages of 20 and 35 years old. Police violence has been identified as a public health issue among public health experts as well as advocates and activists. What role, then, do doctors and pediatricians have in preparing patients and their families to be aware of this public health risk? On today's show, we're in conversation with two pediatricians who led the research of a recent peer-reviewed research letter, titled “Pediatrician Perspectives on Incorporating Discussion of Police Encounters Into Anticipatory Guidance for Black Youth and Their Caregivers“. Dr Jeffrey Eugene is a pediatrician and adolescent medicine specialist, working with the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia as well as Philadelphia FIGHT Community Health Centers. His clinical expertise is in adolescent and young adult primary care, gender affirming medical care, sexual and reproductive health, medical care for youth living with HIV, and eating disorders. Dr George Dalembert, is a pediatrician at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and an Assistant Professor of Clinical Pediatrics at the Perelman School of Medicine. Additionally, he serves on the Governance as well as Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committees of the Pennsylvania chapter of American Academy of Pediatrics. He is also an author on the report that we're discussing today.

Solo en 2019, cuatro de las diez películas más taquilleras del año fueron de esta temática. Pero, ¿cuál es el mensaje que transmiten estas películas?En un artículo publicado en 2017 en la revista Clinical Pediatrics, los científicos analizaron los temas abordados en 30 películas de superhéroes. Aunque se presentan temas positivos, como el trabajo en equipo y la ayuda a quienes están en peligro, los investigadores concluyeron que los temas negativos son mucho más frecuentes e incluyen violencia, acoso e intimidación.En Hebreos 11, Pablo presenta una lista de superhéroes reales que, aunque también tuvieron puntos negativos, lograron por la fe realizar hazañas inimaginables. En esta lista se menciona a personas como David y Daniel, que aun siendo adolescentes hicieron cosas increíbles. A pesar de la diversidad presentada en Hebreos, todos los héroes tenían algo en común: ¡la fuente de su poder! Sabían que eran pecadores como tú y como yo, pero tenían fe en el poder de Dios.LA FE ES UN SUPERPODER que nos ayuda a hacer cosas asombrosas para honra y gloria de Dios. Con ella, podemos ser una bendición para el mundo, llevando liberación y salvación a las personas que nos rodean.La fe no es un superpoder nuestro por naturaleza, sino que es concedida por Dios a todo aquel que la reclama. ¿Quieres ser un superhéroe y ayudar a salvar a muchas personas del pecado? Pídele a Dios que te conceda fe, ¡y verás que sucederán cosas maravillosas!

The Hidden Dangers of High-Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) in Halloween Candy: Most processed foods, including candies, contain HFCS, and the average American consumes about 50 grams daily12. HFCS is created when enzymes are added to corn syrup, converting glucose to fructose3. Fructose triggers the production of fats in the liver[^5^][^6^][^9^][^10^][^11^]. Excessive fructose consumption may cause a leaky gut leading to fatty liver disease[^10^][^11^]. Some sources also indicate the presence of mercury in HFCS.   2. ADHD Links to Artificial Colors in Candy: The increase in ADHD cases may be linked to synthetic food dyes1. Around 33% of children with ADHD might respond positively to a dietary intervention.   3. Effects of Candy Ingredients on Memory and Brain Health: Blue No. 1, used for artificial blue coloring, is permeable to the blood-brain barrier1. Certain chemicals used in candies have been linked to cancer.   4. Artificial Sweeteners & Mental Health: High-aspartame diets have been linked to mood issues and impaired spatial orientation1. Aspartame exposure can produce anxiety-like behavior in mice. 5. Migraines Triggered by Candy Ingredients: Migraines may be triggered by formaldehyde, a byproduct of aspartame.   Give Your Liver the Boost It Deserves!

Kathryn interviews Author Shelly Vaziri Flais, MD.When author Shelly Vaziri Flais MD – a Persian American raised in a home where her father taught her she was equal to males – was pregnant with her twin sons (with a toddler boy already at home), the thought of raising three future men led her to wonder, “What steps can I take as a parent to defy prevalent generational and societal messages like male stereotypes and toxic masculinity? How can I help my sons not only become full humans in touch with their creative, nurturing sides, as much as their athletic, physical sides, but also become empathic, educated allies?” She now shares conversation-starting questions, age-based suggestions for books to read and movies to watch and discuss together and tips for addressing specific hurdles like division of physical labor and of emotional labor.

Tasked with giving a eulogy for a man he hardly knows, Danny sets out to uncover his dad's past--an immigrant's tale of mid-twentieth-century America and the harsh realities of WWII lived in stark contrast to Frank Sinatra's famously extravagant life. Along the way, Danny's own demons nearly destroy him as he struggles to accept his father's deepest secret--a journey that takes him into the heart of darkness before he learns to live in the light.
