00:00:00 - Surf's Up: Season 5 Episode 25 On July 20, Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology released the paper, Expert Panel Recommendations: Practical Clinical Applications for Initiating and Monitoring Resmetirom in Patients with MASH/NASH and Moderate to non-cirrhotic Advanced Fibrosis. Corresponding author Maru Rinella joins the Surfers to share key points from the recommendations and offer her thoughts on what lay behind them.00:02:26 - Introduction and GroundbreakerThe highlight was Louise's groundbreaker: having become a full Fellow in the Roal College of Physicians.00:06:28 - Introducing the paperRoger starts by discussing the importance of this paper and listing the questions the panel will address during the episode. Maru provides a history of developing the paper. Jörn praises its timeliness. 00:08:59 - Treating the "Right" patients; Using the "Right" testsJörh asks why the authors changed the patient definition from a histological one to at-risk MASH patients confirmed by NITs. Maru said the authors sought to follow the FDA guidance on NITs and patient targets. They considered adding liver enzymes or confirmatory VCTE to the protocol, but demurred because not every clinical could execute such a recommendation. Jörn asks whether the authors considered requiring three metabolic risk factors. Roger notes that this question implies a need to prioritize patients, which is a factor in Europe but not the U.S. This paper takes a more U.S-based perspective, which is to set a threshold for use. 00:14:21 - The Decision Not to Discuss CostThe authors did not address costs because they anticipated steep reductions over time. The panel compares the MASH case to HCV. In HCV, the combination of high drug costs and large number of warehoused patients drove prioritization over time. 00:16:34 - Relative paucity of warehoused MASH patients Maru suggests relatively few MASH patients are warehoused. Louise asks whether many U.S. insurers are controlling access by requiring liver biopsy. Maru reports she has not encountered this personally and estimates it might affect ~5% of cases so far. 00:19:05 - Rationale for Patient SelectionMaru explains the rationale for an F2 threshold for patient selection: patients with fibrosis >= F2 show a demonstrable decline in long-term survival. The rationale for excluding cirrhosis patients? Resmetirom is not yet proven to help patients with cirrhosis. Jörn notes, the MAESTRO-OUTCOMES trial is running and will generate consequential data on cirrhosis. 00:22:11 - Value of Stabilizing Disease without ImprovementMaru notes that the paper focused strongly on how to stabilize patients because the drug is safe and stabilization has real-world benefits.. She points out that patient advocates strongly recommend this focus. All this led to the paper's recommendation to discontinue only upon progression. 00:25:12 - The importance of incremental learningThe group agrees that these recommendations comprise a base that will be strengthened over time as individual providers gain experience with the drug. 00:30:06 - Wrapping upPanelists touch briefly on the value of loose discontinuation rules, how patients feel about starting therapy, how to handle drug interactions, and how the paper is used in the US vs. other countries. In closing, the group remembers Stephen Harrison's unique contributions one more time.00:37:55 - Question of the WeekWhich of the paper's two striking recommendations -- using multiple NITs to qualify patients and continuing therapy unless and until a patient shows signs of disease progression -- will have greater impact on how physicians treat patients?00:38:44 - Business ReportSummer schedules, value of the business report, the vault discussion.

This week on Look Forward, Jay and Brad return for a huge episode that covers just an absolutely bizarre week in American politics: Democrats' Success in Elections Linked to Abortion Issue (New York Magazine): Unfortunately, I couldn't access this specific article. However, based on general trends in recent U.S. elections, it's likely that the article discusses how the abortion issue has become a significant factor in recent elections, potentially influencing voter turnout and preferences, particularly after the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.Trump's Georgia Election Racketeering Case: A Georgia judge scheduled an emergency hearing following the release of confidential video evidence in the election-racketeering case against former President Donald Trump. Prosecutors filed an emergency request for a protective order after several videos leaked, detailing evidence provided by former co-defendants who have since pleaded guilty. Trump faces 13 state felony counts in this case, part of 91 total state and federal felony counts he faces in four jurisdictions.Supreme Court Adopts New Ethics Code: The Supreme Court adopted its first code of ethics amidst criticism over undisclosed trips and gifts to some justices.

In 2017, David Josiah Lawson was a student at Humbolt State University with big plans for his future. He was the first in his family to go to college, and was majoring in Criminal Justice with plans to become a lawyer and later enter politics. But before the end of his sophomore year at Humbolt, Josiah Lawson was murdered. He'd been at a party with his girlfriend and some friends, when a fight broke out. At the end of it, Josiah had been fatally stabbed. Everyone knew who he'd been fighting, and it seemed it was very clear who had done this. But the justice system disagreed.

Subscribe to the podcast via RSS, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Stitcher. FEEDBACK Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor (rec’d by Stephanie) Commencement by J. Courtney Sullivan (rec’d by Elizabeth) Tell Me How You Really Feel by Aminah Mae Safi (rec’d by Khadija) The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron (rec’d by Aleks) QUESTIONS 1. Greetings, and thanks in advance for expanding my already out of control TBR list! A friend and I just booked a two-week trip to South Korea for early November (leaving 11/3), and I want to do as much research as possible before I go, because I am SUCH a Hermione. I’m looking for books, fiction or non-fiction, that will provide me with context about the culture, history, food, traditions, and/or landscape of South Korea. I already have Wicked Fox and Pachinko on my list. What else can you recommend that will help me learn as much as I can? I’ve never been anywhere in Asia, and I’m so excited to go. My wheelhouse is pretty broad–I’m a fan of contemporary fiction, sweeping generational sagas, YA, and sci-fi/fantasy (though I’m not so much into high fantasy). For non-fiction I especially love reading memoirs, especially by women and comedians (Bossypants and “Are you Hanging out without Me?” being two of my favorites) and collections of essays. Thanks so much–I love the podcast and I can’t wait to hear your recommendations. -Julia 2. Hi Amanda and Jenn! Over the summer I’ve gotten into a reading kick of books with a certain madcap flair – like everything is bonkers but we’re going with it plotlines. I think Amanda’s recommendation of The Affair of the Mysterious Letter by Alexis Hall is what set me off so I wanted to ask for more please! Other books I’ve read in this vein would be: The Parasol Protectorate by Gail Carriger, Good Omens by Gaiman/Pratchett, The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde, The Hitchhiker’s Guide by Douglas Adams – and I’m noticing a British theme here, which is fine to continue or buck! Thanks in advance. -Kelly 3. Every year for Hanukkah, I send my friend 8 e-books from Thanksgiving until the last day of the holiday. When Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins came out, we both absolutely loved it and read the rest of the books in the series. At the time, we also liked some of the books by Rainbow Rowell. I’ve had trouble finding another whimsical, fun, romantic, but well written series that has the same energy as the Perkins’ books. Any suggestions? Thank you! -Malory 4. I am looking for a book for my mom. She really likes fiction about all kinds of sports in which characters overcome hardships and stereotypes. Which is why she loved the Dairy Queen Trilogy by Catherine Gilbert Murdock. She has now read all three books several times and can’t seem to find anything else quite like it. Can you think of anything along these lines? Thank you! All the best! -Leah 5. I’m a long time listener to the podcast and have got many many recommendations from you both over the years, but I’ve only now come up with my very own personalised request… I’ve recently realised that I read police (and private detective) procedurals as a kind of comfort read/palate cleanser/go to for when I can’t think of anything else to read, or just can’t get into any other books. I’ve read loads of Sarah Paretsky, am obsessed with Tana French and recently really enjoyed the first 2 books in Susie Steiner’s DI Manon Bradshaw series, but I’d really love some recs for this kind of thing that isn’t written by a white woman. I already have IQ by Joe Ides on my radar, have read and loved everything by Attica Locke, and have put the Widows of Malabar Hill on my TBR – do you have any other suggestions for me? Bonus points if it’s a long ass series I can really sink my teeth into and keep going back to when all is lost. I read (and write!) a lot of psychological thrillers so really don’t need any recommendations in that department..it’s police and private eyes I’m after here, I think. -Annie 6. I’m a relatively new Insider, and have been loving your podcast through the past 5 months. Thank you SO much for making my TBR list super-long, and introducing me to so many books I might never have thought to pick up. As a side effect of the Read Harder Challenge, I realized that I love books of essays (who knew?!) in addition to my known-favorites of historical fiction, fantasy, murder mystery, and literary fiction. I just finished reading “Selfish, Shallow and Self-absorbed: 16 Writers on the Decision NOT to have kids”. I had high hopes for this book as a 37 year old veterinarian who has made this decision myself, which tends not to be a popular one with family or peer-group. I was hoping to find my brethren in these essays, but sadly only felt some mild kindred spirits calling from two or three essays. I was wondering if you might be able to help me find a character who speaks to me through a novel? I will say that the “single and driven” female lead intrigues me, but isn’t me. I’m happily married to a man who also doesn’t want children. Also, I do love kids (and truly enjoy my time with my nephews and god-daughter), so kid-haters are also a strong no. Some of my favorite characters thus far have been Kinsey Millhone from Sue Grafton’s alphabet series; Lindsay Boxer from the early part of the Women’s Murder Club series by James Patterson, Claire from the Outlander series, and Jo from Little Women. Thank you in advance! -Jennie 7. I always wondered why I felt no connection to action heroines. Then I read Sabriel and realized that I prefer down-to-earth, sensible protagonists who have a strong sense of duty. Tiffany Aching is the platonic ideal of this. I also recently loved The Bear and the Nightingale. My preferred genres are science fiction and fantasy. I’ve been especially loving “domestic fantasy” lately that takes place around the home, though a good adventure across dangerous lands is always fun too. Thank you! -Julia BOOKS DISCUSSED The Hole by Hye-Young Pyun, translated by Sora Kim-Russell The Birth of Korean Cool by Euny Hong The Invisible Library by Genevieve Cogman Chilling Effect by Valerie Valdes When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon Heroine Complex series by Sarah Kuhn The Flood Girls by Richard Fifield (rec’d by Kathleen) Check, Please!: Book 1: Hockey, by Ngozi Ukazu Shinju by Laura Joh Rowland Rachel Getty & Esa Khattak (The Unquiet Dead #1) by Ausma Zehanat Khan The Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert The Magnificent Spinster by May Sarton Sisters of the Winter Wood by Rena Rossner Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia The Tethered Mage by Melissa Caruso

"My womb has always been empty, but my life is full." - Jeanne Safer Listener Maxine Sims joins Auntie Julia all the way from the UK to discuss the first selection of the Not The Mama Book Club, "Selfish, Shallow and Self Absorbed - Sixteen Writers on the Decision Not to Have Kids" by Meghan Daum. They talk about main themes threaded throughout all of the essays such as self realization, having "it all," and the writers relationships with their own mothers. Maxine and Julia select their favorite essays and discuss them in further detail as well. The decision to not have children isn't always a singular moment in one's life. It can be a series of small choices, realizations, disappointments and victories. February's Not The Mama Book Club selection is "Confessions of a Childfree Woman" by Marcia Drut-Davis.

It is important to love yourself until you follow through until you reach the end of your goals. It may sound corny, but love will help you follow through until you win. Knowing that you deserve to have the best life and going for what you believe you should have will help you to maintain your focus. As you listen to today's show think about the number of time you have given up on your dreams and make the decision to get back in the game.
