On this episode of JHLT: The Podcast, the JHLT Digital Media Editors explore two studies from the June issue of The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation. Digital Media Editor Van-Khue Ton, MD, a transplant cardiologist from Massachusetts General Hospital, hosts this episode.   First, Dr. Ton and Digital Media Editor Marty Tam, MD, interview their first guests, first author Matthew Carey, MD, MBA, and senior author Justin Fried, MD, both of the Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York City, on their study “Aortic Root Thrombosis in patients with HeartMate 3 left ventricular assist device support.”   This retrospective study of all patients receiving a HeartMate 3 LVAD at a single center between November 2014 and August 2020. The study evaluated findings related to patients with aortic root thrombosis, classified as having at least 1 echocardiogram or contrast-enhanced CT scan with thrombus. In the population of 197 patients, 19 had aortic root thrombus, which was ultimately associated with an increased risk of developing significant aortic regurgitation during the study period.   Drs. Carey and Fried discuss whether aortic valve opening is associated with increased risk of aortic root thrombus, how to balance the bleeding-thrombosis scale in patients, and how the study fits in the context of prior generations of LVAD.   Next, Dr. Ton joins and Digital Media Editor Erika Lease, MD, FCCP, to interview, Jacqueline DesJardin, MD, a Fellow in the department of medicine at the University of California San Francisco. Dr. DesJardin is first author on the study “Investigating the “sex paradox” in pulmonary arterial hypertension: Results from the Pulmonary Hypertension Association Registry (PHAR).”   PHAR is a multicenter US-based registry of patients with PAH, and this study analyzed 1,891 patients from the registry, 1,425 (75%) of whom were female. At baseline, compared to men, women had worse functional status and worse hemodynamics. Women were more likely to be on triple therapy or parenteral prostacyclin therapies at baseline. Interestingly, women had better survival than men, even after adjusting for numerous variables.   In the discussion, Dr. DesJardin explains what collider stratification bias is, and how it may illuminate the complex epidemiological system that creates this disparity. She shares the three potential causal models posed in the study, and considers how the study might be followed up.   Follow along at www.jhltonline.org/current, or, if you're an ISHLT member, access your Journal membership at www.ishlt.org/jhlt.   Don't already get the Journal and want to read along?

Today on the Mushroom Hour Podcast we have the privilege of speaking with Brian Perry PhD, Associate Professor of Biology at California State University, East Bay. He received his Master's Degree from San Francisco State University under the guidance of Dr. Dennis E. Desjardin, and his Ph.D. from Harvard University where he studied with Dr. Donald H. Pfister. Brian has been studying fungi since 1995, and has published over 45 papers in scientific journals. In addition to studying the evolution of fungal bioluminescence, he also conducts research on mushrooms and other fungi of Vanuatu, the assembly and biogeography of island fungal communities, endophytic fungi of Hawaiian plants, and the systematics of Mycena and allied genera. Brian teaches several mycology courses at Cal State East Bay and the Sierra Nevada Field Campus, and recently launched a Sierra Nevada Mycoflora project.   TOPICS COVERED:   Raised with an Appreciation for Nature  Mycological Influence of Dr. Dennis Desjardin  Why Do Some Mushrooms Glow?  Exploring Evolution of Fungal Bioluminescence  Biochemistry of Bioluminescence  Biology & Ecological Roles of Endophytic Fungi  Applied Use of Endophytes  Fungal Ecology of Tropical Islands  Research in Vanuatu  Vanuatu's Indigenous Culture  Ethnomycology Among Vanuatu's Indigenous Peoples  Tropical Island Phylogeography & Biogeography  Biogeographical Mysteries  Rise of Citizen Mycologists  EPISODE RESOURCES:   Dr. Brian Perry Website: https://www.perrymycolab.com/CSU East Bay Website: https://www.csueastbay.edu/directory/profiles/biol/perrybrian.htmlProf. Dennis Desjardin: https://biology.sfsu.edu/faculty/desjardinMetrosideros polymorpha (plant species): https://www2.hawaii.edu/~eherring/hawnprop/met-poly.htm   Blue Coprinopsis (fungi): https://steveaxford.smugmug.com/Fungi/Basidiomycetes/Coprinoid-fungi/Blue-Coprinopsis/   Schizophyllum commune (fungi): https://www.mushroomexpert.com/schizophyllum_commune.html   Coprinellus disseminatus (fungi): http://www.mushroomexpert.com/coprinellus_disseminatus.html   Mycena californiensis (fungi): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycena_californiensis   

Illuminating Fungi: the Science of Fungal Bioluminescence with Brian Perry PhD Fungal bioluminescence was first described by Aristotle (384-322 B.C.E.), and continues to fascinate and puzzle scientists today. While over 100 species of fungi are known to produce luminescent mushrooms or mycelium, the chemical and genetic basis of the light-producing reaction was only recently discovered, and the reason these fungi glow remains somewhat of a mystery. Come learn about our current understanding of the evolution, ecology and biochemistry of this phenomenon. And yes, there will be lots of pictures of glowing mushrooms!

Today on Mushroom Hour we have the pleasure of learning from Jackie Shay. Jackie is a fungal evolutionary biologist and microbial ecologist fascinated with the intimate history and future significance of symbiotic relationships between plant hosts and their microbial communities. Her goal is to use integrative techniques to explore these interactions in the natural world and learn how we can apply these partnerships to promote conservation and resilience through climate change. Jackie received a master's in Ecology, Evolution, and Conservation Biology from the Desjardin lab at San Francisco State University studying the evolution of wood decaying mushrooms (Marasmius) from Madagascar. She is currently a Ph.D. student in the Sexton and Frank labs in the Quantitative and Systems Biology Program at the University of California, Merced. This interdisciplinary team has set out to uncover the mystery behind the Monkeyflower microbiome and discover whether these microbes influence their plant hosts across its range. Topics Covered: From Urban Dweller to Forest Lover Desjardin Lab at SFSU Marasmius Research in Madagascar Unseen Ecological Importance of Saprobic Fungi Fungal Genetics Importance of "ITS" Region in Fungal Gene Sequencing Discovering New Species of Marasmius Monkeyflower Microbiome Bioinformatics Endophytes Defined Endophytes and Climate Change Mysteries of "Dark" Endophytes We Need More Mycologists!

Today we are joined by Skip Desjardin, author of the book September 1918: War, Plague, and the World Series (Regnery History, 2018). In this work, which blends sports and history together, Desjardin looks at the historic and turbulent events of September 1918 that affected Boston. The Red Sox won their fourth World Series in seven years, but the specter of World War I had shortened the baseball season. Players, disgruntled by the idea that they would be shortchanged in the regular season and the World Series, went on a brief strike before Game 4. A young Babe Ruth was a masterful pitcher but coming into his own as a hitter, but during the World Series, manager Ed Barrow was reluctant to use his left-handed star in the lineup when he was not pitching. Overseas, a Massachusetts volunteer unit led the first unified U.S. fighting unit into battle in France, while teenager David Putnam established himself as America’s flying ace during his short life. At home, an outbreak of Spanish influenza erupted in Boston and its suburbs, causing death at an alarming rate. Desjardin also touches on the women’s suffrage movement, spearheaded by Maud Park, who gained an audience with President Woodrow Wilson; the actions of Massachusetts Lt. Gov. Calvin Coolidge; and baseball players’ exemption from the “work or fight” order until after the World Series. Bob D’Angelo earned his master’s degree in history from Southern New Hampshire University in May 2018. He earned his bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Florida and spent more than three decades as a sportswriter and sports copy editor, including 28 years on the sports copy desk at The Tampa (Fla.) Tribune. He can be reached at bdangelo57@gmail.com. For more information, visit Bob D’Angelo’s Books and Blogs.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

“Stand Firm Ye Boys From Maine” With a new preface and updated maps and illustrations, Stand Firm Ye Boys of Maine offers a compelling account of one of the most crucial small engagements of the Civil War. This powerfully narrated history tells the story of the 20th Maine Regiment, the soldiers who won the battle of Little Round Top. The culmination of years of detailed research, the book uses more than seventy first-hand accounts to bring the personal experiences of the soldiers to life, relating the story from both sides. Thomas Desjardin was born and raised in Maine and did his doctoral work in American History at the University of Maine. He has worked as an interpreter, giving programs on the Gettysburg battlefield for the National Park Service. The author of These Honored Dead: How the Story of Gettysburg Shaped American Memory and Through A Howling Wilderness: Benedict Arnold's March to Quebec, 1775, he is working on a TV documentary on Joshua Chamberlain.

On November 2013 Emily Carr University Library, READ Books and Unit/Pitt Projects brought Arnaud Desjardin to Vancouver. During his residency he worked in the library and presented an artist talk, led a workshop at READ, exhibited at Unit/Pitt Projects and launched his "Book on Books on Artists’ Books" at Satellite Gallery. Desjardin is a French artist, curator and publisher currently based in London. He describes his ongoing publication project The Everyday Press as a “channel for collaborations with artists, curators, writers and academics to produce acts of publication to be considered as art works.
