Semaglutide, branded as Ozempic or Wegovy, is an analogue of glucagon-like peptide 1 which has glucose-dependent effects on insulin secretion. In this episode we discuss how semaglutide performs as an antihyperglycaemic agent compared to previous GLP-1 analogues and the soon-to-be launched tirzepatide. This dual agonist also binds receptors to glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, GIP.GLP-1 and GIP are incretin hormones, secreted after food intake and involved in regulating gastric motility and appetite. The analogue therapies have resulted in weight loss of 10 to 20 percent in trials on patients with obesity or other weight-related comorbidities. For various reasons, however, they remain unsubsidised by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme. This hasn't stopped social media influencers driving up off-label demand from the wider public, creating a problem for regulators and the diabetic patients most in need.GuestsProfessor Chris Rayner MBBS PhD FRACP (Gwendolyn Michell Professor, Adelaide Medical School; Consultant Gastroenterologist, Royal Adelaide Hospital) Professor Gary Wittert MBBch, MD, FRACP (Mortlock Professor, Adelaide Medical School; Senior Consultant Endocrinologist, Royal Adelaide Hospital)ProductionProduced by Mic Cavazzini DPhil.

In this episode of the Data Malarkey podcast, data storyteller Sam Knowles talks to Tim Jobson, a consultant gastroenterologist at the Somerset NHS Foundation Trust in South West England. Tim truly is a product of Oxbridge, having studied Natural Sciences at Cambridge for three years and then Medicine at Oxford for a further three. He went on to take a PhD in Medicine from Nottingham University, and he is a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians. Tim is an expert in what's sometimes rather unglamorously known as “internal medicine”, and one of his specialist organs is the liver. Since 2021, he's been the Medical Director and Chief Investigator of a pioneering, data-driven business called Predictive Health Intelligence which is taking a fresh approach to analysing historical blood test data and identifying patients at risk of liver disease. As he considers the role that data plays in diagnosis of different chronic and acute medical conditions and diseases, Tim zooms in from the stories patients tell their doctors to the results of specific tests and biopsies. By accumulating relevant evidence, healthcare professionals can identify the relative risk or probability that a particular patient is suffering from a particular disease. We focus on metabolic syndrome – the cluster of conditions that result from the excess of modern life: cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and hypertension. When we take in more fruit sugar – fructose – than we need, our liver store this as fat. This was fine as recently as 10,000 years ago, before agricultural, industrial, and consumer revolutions, when our ancestors lived a life of feast and famine. But when fatty, salty, sugary foods – particularly those laden with High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) – are so readily available, piled high and sold cheap in supermarkets, this sets us up for metabolic syndrome. Something that at least a third of the Western world suffers from today. One major and silent killer in this cluster of conditions is non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. As the clinical lead in a partnership with his local National Health Service Trust and healthcare IT experts, Tim and his colleagues at Predictive Health Intelligence have developed and are rolling-out a case-finding search engine (HepatoSIGHT) which uses the results from historical blood tests taken over a patient's life to predict whether – without them knowing it – they are suffering from this silent killer. The annual toll of this disease is eye-watering: it costs £7-13bn a year, causes 30,000 premature deaths, and robs the UK population of more than 100,000 years of healthy life each year. We discuss how HepatoSIGHT could dramatically reduce these numbers and how the same, super-smart approach to using existing health data could help identify other, costly, silent killers, too.

Surfing NASH is joined by Tim Jobson, founder of Predictive Health Intelligence, to discuss applying analytics to sieve through and distill invaluable data otherwise dormant in the NHS record systems. Tim, a Consultant Gastroenterologist and Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, has firsthand experience with the shortcomings and frustrations around undiagnosed liver disease. Illustrating the pursuit of a solution, he walks us through the journey of developing a simple tool that can identify patients at risk of liver disease by analyzing the results of blood tests given throughout their lives. Also featuring in this session are Surfers Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green, who pose compelling questions and share insightful perspectives on this particularly pertinent subject to the podcast.Tim begins by providing his background and how he came to partner with expert clinicians and specialists in healthcare IT to address how we can better identify patients. A pivotal validation came in the form of funding from the National Institute for Health Research to establish Predictive Health Intelligence and create a software and system that works quickly and straightforwardly. He notes that this project is a “combined informatics and clinical program simultaneously,” where the building of new clinical pathways is a key part of their process and aims. An important idea emerges: instead of waiting for inbound referrals, Tim is focused on how to proactively engage in outreach to those who likely may not come to attention until presenting with decompensated cirrhosis. At this point, the challenge around collecting patient data is acknowledged but explored in more detail later in the conversation. Once approved, the task targets organizing, curating and systematizing this data in a way that enables end users to search for, identify and investigate patterns of blood tests. This approach offers tremendous value in its ability to analyze cumulative results as opposed to deriving insights from a single point in time. By demonstrating area under the curve and introducing trend lines in an easily deployed case-finding search engine, frontline treaters are better equipped to pick up patients. From here, the other panelists inject a series of thought-provoking questions, starting with Jörn's focus on the patient response to this new pathway. Thus far, Tim is pleased to have received positive feedback and expects to conduct a comparative analysis as outreach expands. Jörn next prompts a thorough look into the computational components of this project. Tim explains a key to the system lies in “prepping the data” so that queries can generate cohorts of interest in mere seconds. This is an evolving effort that he works on closely with developers to craft bespoke technological solutions. Louise asks about what barriers, financial or otherwise, stand in the way of outreach efforts. Tim states that specifically financial barriers are being combatted with economic analysis to demonstrate the massive potential savings NHS can experience by adopting these preventative measures. Discussion segues back to computational power and the integration of assessing for the wider metabolic spectrum. Roger suggests that such a technology can offer an effective optical validity test before he shifts thoughts toward integration with other pathways. As the session continues, Tim fields numerous prompts which delve into patient engagement, elements of data privacy, physician responses, the future of this project and much more. This is yet another eye-catching profile of an innovative technology in the Fatty Liver space contending to solve an immensely relevant challenge.

Dr Pran Yoganathan is a Sydney based Consultant Gastroenterologist and Hepatologist who practices and preaches an animal based diet for himself and his patients.

This has shown huge benefits to both himself, his patients, and his growing family.

And for this very special moment, I am thrilled to bring you one of the most notable plant-based gastroenterologists in the world: bestselling author, and public health expert, Dr. Alan Desmond. I get, like, super nerd excited about speaking to docs who are into nutrition. As a dietitian who's worked in digestive health for a decade, I've encountered plenty of gastros who downplay the role that nutrition can have in supporting digestive disease, so it got me wondering: Why do some doctors develop an interest in nutrition as a therapeutic tool while others don't?
