This week we go back in time to 2022 to re-enter the world of cardiogenetics and electrophysiology when we review the topic of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Is there a 'best' beta blocker for the treatment of this condition? Why is one better than others? How should one manage the patient who is intolerant of beta blockade but needs it for prevention of arrhythmia? What is the role of flecainide, sympathectomy or even ICD's for these patients? PhD candidate and physician Dr. Puck Peltenburg and CPVT world authority, Dr. Christian van der Werf (both of University of Amsterdam) share their deep insights this week. doi: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.056018.

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Dr. Joseph Ecker from the Salk Institute about his work on high-resolution genome-wide mapping technologies, specifically how the regulation of gene expression is influenced by DNA methylation, chromatin accessibility, and non-coding RNAs across various cell types and developmental stages. During our conversation, we delve into Dr. Ecker's contributions to the characterization of the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana, a project pivotal in the plant genomics field, where he collaborated on the early sequencing efforts that dramatically outpaced expectations. He highlights the technological advancements that enabled such efficient sequencing and how this foundational work opened new avenues for exploring transcriptional activity. We also discuss Dr. Ecker's pivotal work on the comprehensive DNA methylation map of Arabidopsis, which he developed in collaboration with other researchers. This groundbreaking study established the links between methylation patterns and gene expression, paving the way for further research into how these epigenetic marks influence over gene regulation. He elaborates on the significance of transitioning from traditional methods to more sophisticated techniques, such as RNA-seq, and the lessons learned from sequencing projects that have since been applied to human biology. Dr. Ecker's transition to studying human cells is further explored as he discusses the profiling of DNA methylation in induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), revealing how epigenetic memory can influence cellular differentiation and development. He underscores the importance of understanding these methylation patterns, particularly as they relate to conditions like Alzheimer's disease and stem cell biology, where he examines potential applications of his findings in medical research. As our conversation progresses, we touch upon Dr. Ecker's ongoing projects that utilize advanced multi-omic techniques to investigate the epigenomes of the human brain, focusing on how DNA methylation and gene expression change with age and in the context of neurodegenerative diseases. He details the collaboration efforts with various consortia aimed at cataloging gene regulatory networks and understanding the complex interactions that take place within the brain throughout different life stages.   References Mozo T, Dewar K, Dunn P, Ecker JR, Fischer S, Kloska S, Lehrach H, Marra M, Martienssen R, Meier-Ewert S, Altmann T.

Does it feel like scoliosis has made you shorter? The reality is that's probably the case but you're not stuck that way.In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, I'm breaking down why scoliosis can reduce your height and, more importantly, what you can do to change that. You'll learn the three biggest contributors to height loss with scoliosis and what steps you can take to address each one.You'll hear how things like dehydrated fascia, wedged discs, and poor decompression strategies play a major role—and why just stretching or strength training isn't enough.Plus, I'll share how one Scoliosis Strength Collective member actually gained a full inch of height in her 60s and how you can apply the same approach.Living with scoliosis doesn't mean giving up on strength, mobility, or even your height. This episode is a great place to start taking it back.Resources Mentioned:Google Review From Scoliosis Strength Collective Member Who Gained 1 Inch!Check Out The Fascia Comparison Photo HereSchedule a Discovery Call w/ MeghanMy Virtual Scoliosis Coaching ServicesMy WebsiteFREE At-Home Exercises For ScoliosisResearch Studies Mentioned:Sarma A, Barman B, Das GC, Saikia H, Momin AD.

What's best for skin closure at C-Section? Staples or suture? This debate has raged for over 20 years. Past data has shown greater odds of wound complications with metal staples compared to suture. But new a meta-analysis from June 2025 is challenging the prior results. In this episode, we will explore the data from 2010 to present day.

Death Anxiety: Dani Chammas & Keri Brenner

What is death anxiety?  We spend the first 15 minutes of the podcast addressing this question.  And maybe this was unfair to our guests, the fabulous dynamic duo of palliative psychiatrists Dani Chammas and Keri Brenner (listen to their prior podcasts on therapeutic presence and the angry patient).  After all, we invited them on to our podcast to discuss death anxiety, then Eric and I immediately questioned if death anxiety was the best term for what we want to discuss! Several key points stood out to me from this podcast, your key points may differ: The “anxiety” in “death anxiety” is not a pathological phenomenon or a DSM diagnosis;  it references an existential concern that is fundamental to the human experience .  To me,” awareness of mortality” might be a better term, but in fairness, the idea of “death anxiety” was coined well before the formal establishment of “anxiety disorders.” The ways in which death anxiety manifests in our patient's choices and behaviors varies tremendously, and our responses as clinicians must be individualized. There is no “one size fits all” approach. In one example Dani discusses, a pain level of 1.5/10 might be overwhelming, because for a patient  in remission from cancer any pain might signal return of cancer.  Some manifestations of death anxiety can be debilitating, others lead to tremendous personal growth, connection to others, and a drive toward finding meaning in their illness experience.   Death anxiety impacts us as clinicians, not only through countertransference, that word that I still can't define (sorry Dani and Keri!), but also through our own unexamined fears about death. As clinicians who regularly care for people who are dying, we might find ourselves becoming “used to” death. Is this a sign that we are inured to the banality of death, and less able to empathize with the death anxiety experienced by our patients or their families? Or could it reflect our acceptance of the finitude of life, prompting us to live in the present moment? Perhaps it is something else entirely. The key is that looking inwards to understanding our own unique relationship with mortality can deepen our ability to authentically accompany the experiences of our patients. I mean, don't fear the reaper, right?  Sorry, no cowbell in my version, but you do get my son Kai, home from college, on guitar for the audio only podcast version.

We have covered Low Dose Aspirin (LDA) for pre-natal preeclampsia prevention MANY times before. But here's a good clinical question: Since preeclampsia can also pop-up in the first 6 weeks postpartum (pp), should we continue it in the immediate pp interval? There is a new publication, an RCT, in the AJOG that looked to answer this- and we will highlight that publication in this episode. PLUS, we will briefly summarize a separate publication from the American J Perinatology back in 2023 that also provided some clinical insights on this topic. Listen in for details.1.

Discover the future of pain management on this episode of Atomic Anesthesia as we explore a major breakthrough: the FDA approval of suzetrigine, a first-in-class, nonopioid pain medication. Guided by cutting-edge research and expert editorial insight from Anesthesiology, we dig into how suzetrigine works—targeting the NaV1.8 sodium channel in peripheral nerves—and what this means for patients and providers facing acute pain. You'll hear about the pivotal NAVIGATE clinical trials, real-world patient experiences, and the medication's advantages over traditional opioids, including fewer side effects and no risk of addiction. Whether you're a healthcare professional, patient, or someone passionate about medical innovation, join us to learn how suzetrigine is poised to reshape pain relief and help bridge the gap left by the opioid crisis.References:Bertoch T, D'Aunno D, McCoun J, Solanki D, Taber L, Urban J, Oswald J, Swisher MW, Tian S, Miao X, Correll DJ, Negulescu P, Bozic C, Weiner SG.

This episode of Bioethics in the Margins features a panel of bioethicists: Danielle Pacia of The Hastings Center, Sana Baban of UMass Chan Medical School, J. Wesley Boyd of Harvard Medical School, and Ryan Dougherty of Kaiser Permanente. They are the co-authors of a national survey exploring the role of social justice in their field, published in the American Journal of Bioethics: Empirical Bioethics. In this conversation, the authors discuss their key findings on what social justice obligations bioethicists feel they have, the concept of "social bioethics," and the duty of the field to address systemic injustice. We start by defining the term "social justice" and discussing how it relates to the four principles of bioethics. We spend some time unpacking the methods of the study including strengths and limitations. The main finding - that >80% of bioethicists surveyed believe that social justice should be part of their work - is contextualized by exploring how social justice can add information and objectivity to our work. The episode ends with some reflections by the authors on how we can move forward in the field with these important tools.Work cited in this episode: Pacia DM, Baban SS, Fletcher FE, Mithani Aziz Z, Cooper JF, Boyd JW, Dougherty RJ.

You are called to assess a pregnant woman who presents to your hospital complaining of shortness of breath. She is 36 weeks pregnant with twins and tells you she had been getting progressively short of breath over the last month but put it down to the physical effects of the twin pregnancy in her abdomen. However last night she couldn't get her breath lying flat, had to sleep sitting up on 3-4 pillows and feels that "it is much worse". On examination she has a respiratory rate of 24/min, SpO2 = 92%, HR 105/min, BP 95/45 and you can hear crepitations in both lung fields. Her initial blood tests come back showing a raised plasma BNP and a bedside ECHO is done by a helpful colleague - who says "subjectively her LV isn't contracting very well". Hi everyone, This week I sit down with Dr Faith Njue the most qualified person here in WA to discuss the rare but important disease - peripartum cardiomyopathy. (See Faith's Bio below). Join us in our wide ranging discussion which touches on the diagnostic challenges, demographics, proposed mechanisms and general principles involved in managing these complex patients. Thanks Faith for a great discussion! Dr Faith Njue - Bio Faith Njue graduated from the University of Western Australia and completed cardiology training in Perth. She undertook further subspeciality training in advanced heart failure/ heart transplantation at Fiona Stanley Hospital and the University of Ottawa Heart Institute in Canada. Thereafter, she undertook further fellowship in cardio-obstetrics at the John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford (UK). She has special interest in women's cardiovascular health, heart disease in pregnancy and heart failure. Faith runs the dedicated Western Cardiology cardio-obstetrics clinic, designed to support women at risk of or with pre-existing heart conditions, through preconception counselling, pregnancy and into the post-partum period. Cardio-obstetrics is an expanding subspecialty that focuses on prevention, early detection, and appropriate management of cardiovascular disease in pregnancy. She holds public consultant positions at Sir Charles Gairdner and Fiona Stanley hospitals. She is part of the Advanced heart Failure and Cardiac Transplant team at FSH. She is the cardiology clinical lead for High Risk pregnancy at FSH. References Anaesthesia and peripartum cardiomyopathy Chapman, K. Njue F, Rucklidge M.

Contributor: Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: How do we risk-stratify chest-pain patients? One option is the HEART score This score predicts a patient's 6-week risk of a major adverse cardiac event. Ex. Cath procedure, CABG, PCI, death H stands for History Ask 1) Was the patient diaphoretic? 2) Did they have nausea and/or vomiting? 3) Did the pain radiate down the right or left arm? 4) Was it exertional? Yes to one = one point. Two or more = two points. E stands for EKG One point for left ventricular hypertrophy, t-wave inversions, new bundle-branch blocks. No points for first degree AV block, benign early repolarization, or QT-prolongation Two points for ST-depression A stands for Age >65 gets two points 45-64 gets one point R stands for Risk factors Hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity, family history, smoking, previous MI, previous CABG, stroke, peripheral arterial disease 1-2 risk factors get 1 point More than two risk factors gets two points T stands for Troponin 1-3x upper limit of normal gets one point >3x upper limit of normal gets two points This gives you a score between zero and ten 0-3 points, patients have a ~2% chance of an adverse event These patients likely go home 4-6 points, patients have a ~20% chance of an adverse event These patients get admitted or expedited outpatient stress test/echo 7-10 points, patients have a ~60% chance of an adverse event Admit and call cardiology.

In this episode, Professor Asim Surani, shares how his extensive research has significantly advanced the understanding of how the mammalian germline is specified, the mechanisms governing epigenetic reprogramming, and the critical conditions that maintain genomic integrity during early development. The discussion, led by Dr. Stefan Dillinger, provides an overview of Surani's journey into biology, the evolution of his research interests, and the pivotal discoveries that have shaped the field of epigenetics. Dr. Surani discusses the groundbreaking experiment he co-conducted in 1984 that led to the discovery of genomic imprinting. Initially a student involved in in vitro fertilization at Cambridge, he became intrigued by the implications of parthenogenesis in mammals. Challenging the prevailing cytoplasmic theory of development, Surani and his collaborators demonstrated that normal mammalian development requires contributions from both parental genomes, leading to the introduction of the concept of genomic imprinting—a term Surani defended to describe the phenomenon that he and his team observed. Surani's research then evolved toward understanding the mechanisms of genomic imprinting, particularly the role of DNA methylation. Throughout the interview, he details specific experiments that elucidated how genes could exhibit imprinted expression depending on the parental lineage, highlighting the importance of epigenetic factors in gene regulation. The revelation that DNA methylation marks were responsible for imprinting solidified the connection between genetic information and epigenetic influence in development. The conversation dives deeper into the mechanisms involved in germline specification and epigenetic reprogramming. Surani explains his transition into studying mammalian germline development and the intricacies of primordial germ cell specification. Working with his team, he utilized single-cell approaches to investigate gene expression profiles specific to germ cells, identifying critical factors like PRDM1 and PRDM14 that repress somatic gene programs while initiating germline-specific pathways. This work underscored the complex interplay of genetic and epigenetic factors that govern the development of germ cells. Another focus of the interview is the comparison of epigenetic resetting between mouse and human germlines. Surani addresses key differences in the timing and mechanisms of epigenetic reprogramming in humans, particularly the involvement of specific factors such as SOX17, which emerged as a crucial player in human germline specification, contrary to his earlier expectations. The discussion also highlights the technical challenges researchers face when studying human embryos due to ethical constraints, driving innovation in model systems such as stem cells to explore germline development.   References Surani MA, Barton SC, Norris ML.

Welcome to the podcast with Dr. Brendan McCarthy!   In this deeply personal episode, he shares why lab work—especially testing FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone)—is non-negotiable in hormone replacement therapy.   This is not about gatekeeping. It's about understanding. It's about caring. Dr. McCarthy recounts a formative memory of meeting a woman who underwent surgical menopause and was never told what would happen to her body afterward. That moment shaped his lifelong mission to treat women with comprehensive, individualized care—not cookie-cutter patches or “blind firing” estrogen without context. In this episode, he explains:

Content warning:  arson, assault, fetal abduction, kidnapping, attempted murder, murder, substance use, and substance use disorder. As shared in part one, Angelique Robledo is an incredible mother and survivor living in Arizona. She was born in Southern California, but after a pivotal move nearly four hundred miles east in her middle school years, she found herself having trouble fitting in. Several years later, and not long after finding out she was pregnant, Angelique was introduced (by a mutual friend) to a Maricopa newcomer who she seemed to have a lot in common with. Over the next several months she would get to know the also-18-year-old via text and social media; they would discuss their pregnancies and build what Angelique considered a friendship. But everything changed on February 16, 2011, when their burgeoning relationship became nearly lethal. The Broken Cycle Media team is deeply honored and grateful that Angelique was willing to so rawly share about her experiences and all that came next for her after courageously surviving an alleged attempted fetal abduction and attempted arson.
