In November of 1988, 17 year old high school student Junko Furuta was cycling home from her part-time job when she was kicked off by a passing motorcyclist. Shortly thereafter, 18-year old teenage boy Hiroshi Miyano came across Furuta and helped her get back on her feet, even offering to walk her home as it was quite late at night. Unbeknownst to Furuta however, Miyano had actually orchestrated this seemingly chance encounter, and she would soon come to learn the true extent of his depravity.

Description: Co-hosts Ryan Piansky, a graduate student and patient advocate living with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and eosinophilic asthma, and Holly Knotowicz, a speech-language pathologist living with EoE who serves on APFED's Health Sciences Advisory Council, interview Dr. Dan Atkins about Children's Hospital Colorado's multidisciplinary treatment program for eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGIDs).   In this episode, Ryan and Holly interview their friend, Dr. Dan Atkins. Ryan was a long-time patient of Dr. Atkins and Holly worked as a feeding specialist with Dr. Atkins at Children's Hospital Colorado. Together, Dr. Atkins and Dr. Glen Furuta developed the Gastrointestinal Eosinophilic Disease Program at Children's Hospital Colorado as a multidisciplinary treatment center for pediatric patients impacted by eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. They discuss how treatments and medicines have developed over the years. The clinic started with local patients but now also receives referrals from around the United States. Listen in for tips on identifying EGIDs and using multidisciplinary treatment.

The last rotation was with an incredible allergist, Dr. Lenny Hoffman, in Houston. Dr. Atkins loved seeing patients with asthma, eczema, allergic rhinitis, food allergies, and anaphylaxis.   [2:59] The thing Dr. Atkins liked about it was he could take kids who had potentially life-threatening conditions, work with them, and stabilize things, and they did really well. He could see a change in their quality of life. That got him started.   [3:22] Dr. Atkins did an allergy and immunology fellowship in Buffalo, New York with Dr. Elliott Ellis and Dr. Elliott Middleton who had just written the Allergy: Principles and Practice text. They were incredible, brilliant mentors and wonderful people.   [3:55] Dr. Atkins went to the National Institutes of Health to do basic science research after learning of a double-blind, placebo-controlled food challenge by Dr. Allan Bock and Dr. May in Denver.   [4:27] Dr. Atkins did a clinical project on food allergy with Dr. Dean Metcalf, which was one of the first double-blind, placebo-controlled food challenges in adults. They published two papers on it.   [4:47] Then Dr. Atkins went to work on the faculty of National Jewish Health. He was there for 25 years.   [5:04] Dr. Atkins was invited to join the Children's Hospital of Colorado because they wanted to start an allergy program there.   [5:21] Dr. Atkins got interested in eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases in 2006 after he saw a patient who had had difficulty eating, eosinophils in his esophagus, and food allergies. In another state, a doctor had put him on an elimination diet and he got better.   [5:42] The patient moved to Denver. Dr. Atkins saw him and found the case to be interesting. He looked in the literature and found an article on eosinophilic esophagitis by Dr. Alex Straumann.   [5:53] A gastroenterologist, Dr. Glen Furuta, came to Children's Hospital, looking to work with an allergist. Dr. Atkins met with him and they hit it off. They saw the need for a multidisciplinary program to take care of these patients.   [6:31] Dr. Atkins has always been interested in diseases that led to eosinophilia. Most of them were allergic diseases. Eosinophilic esophagitis and other eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases came along with much more of a focus on eosinophils in the gut.   [6:45] The first case of eosinophilic esophagitis that Dr. Atkins treated was a patient in 2006. He believes he probably missed earlier cases just by not asking the right question, which is, “Does your child eat slower than everybody else?”   [7:18] Once Dr. Atkins started asking patients that question, it stunned him to find out how many patients said that was part of the issue. He followed up with testing and, sure enough, they had eosinophilic esophagitis.   [7:45] Dr. Atkins says that, in general, eosinophils are present in allergic conditions. If you look at “allergic snot,” and stain it up, it's full of eosinophils. If you have eosinophilic esophagitis and allergic rhinitis, if you swallow snot, it will impact your EoE.   [8:40] Dr. Atkins tends to be more aggressive with using a topical nasal steroid spray with patients who have allergic rhinitis because that decreases the eosinophils in the nose.   [8:50] Dr. Atkins says since eosinophils are on their way to areas that are involved in allergic inflammation, that's how Dr. Atkins got interested in eosinophils. It played out with the multidisciplinary group and eosinophilic esophagitis.    [9:07] Ryan went to see Drs. Atkins and Furuta when he was eight. Ryan is so thankful he was able to go to their clinic and is grateful that the doctors helped to create one of the first programs dedicated to treating EGIDs in the U.S.   [9:40] Dr. Atkins credits Dr. Furuta with the multidisciplinary program. They discussed who needed to be part of it. A gastroenterologist first but Dr. Atkins thought an allergist was also necessary. Treating other allergies helps the patient's eosinophilic condition.   [10:51] They decided they needed excellent nurses who loved working with kids. A lot of the kids had trouble eating, so the group needed feeding therapists and dieticians because these kids have a limited diet. They also needed a pathologist to read the slides.   [12:59] Because this is a burdensome disease, they needed psychologists for the child and the family. Learning coping mechanisms is a big part of the experience.   [14:20] As the program progressed, they saw they needed an endocrinologist to look at the children who weren't growing as expected. In clinic, they needed a child health person who could play games with the kids and keep them engaged during the long visits.   [14:44] That was how the program evolved. They had an idea but they had to show people it would be an active clinic that would grow and they had enough patients to warrant the program. It happened quickly.   [14:54] The program is fortunate to have a wonderful group of people who get along well and check their egos at the door. There are lots of conversations. Everybody's willing to listen and put their heads together. They compare notes and histories.   [15:46] Holly had been working as a feeding specialist at the hospital. Someone was on leave so Holly was put into the clinic. She had never heard of EoE; she didn't know she had it! Her first meeting was a roomful of professionals comparing notes on patients.   [16:31] Holly was in disbelief that these medical professionals met together for an hour weekly to discuss their patients with each other. Later, Holly followed a patient with Dr. Atkins, then Dr. Furuta, then a dietician, and then a nurse. [17:01] As she followed the patient, Holly listened and recognized the symptoms. She thought that she might have EoE! She introduced herself to Dr. Atkins and asked for a referral for a diagnosis. She was diagnosed that year with EoE.   [17:25] Holly sees many unique things about the program. She was impressed that they had the foresight to include a feeding specialist, not a common specialty at the time. Holly also thinks it's neat that the clinic sees patients from all over the country. [18:01] Dr. Atkins says the availability of care is improving across the country. When the program began, people had not heard of eosinophilic esophagitis, not even the local pediatricians. Allergists were just becoming aware of it. They had to be educated.   [18:29] There were people in other communities who didn't have access to multidisciplinary care. Over time the word has spread. Pediatricians are referring patients to the clinic for diagnosis. Care availability has improved.   [18:55] Not every patient needs a multidisciplinary program. If you have mild to moderate eosinophilic esophagitis and you're responding to a current therapy, are doing well, and are communicating well with your provider, that's great!   [19:10] If you need a second opinion or if you have a complicated case, there are some benefits to multidisciplinary care.   [19:33] The providers at the clinic listen to the children as well as to the parents. When a food is removed, a dietician can suggest an alternative the child might like.   [20:07] The clinic wanted to treat local patients but go beyond that, as well. They learn a lot from seeing patients from all over the country with different exposures and being treated by different doctors.   [20:17] When Ryan was young, he would go from his home in Georgia to Denver, yearly. He reflected it felt like summer camp. He got a scope one day and saw the full team of specialists the next few days. It was different from how he was treated before.   [21:06] Ryan says he was listened to and heard, and it was such a great experience for him as a patient to be seen in Dr. Atkins's clinic.   [21:46] Dr. Atkins says they are trying to teach children to be their own advocates. If the doctor does not listen to what the patients have to say, why should they be involved?   [22:50] A patient experience at the clinic starts with somebody deciding they need to go there and get a second opinion or a diagnosis. They get a referral to the clinic. Dr. Atkins mentions the need for administrative staff as part of the clinic team.   [23:40] The patient fills out forms and gives their records to be reviewed by a physician before being seen to see if the clinic is a good fit for them. If it is, the patient is scheduled with an appointment for each doctor and professional in the clinic.   [24:02] The patient records are seen by each professional on the team for how they relate to the professional's specialty. They decide what tests need to be done and if they are covered by insurance.    [24:27] The care team meets before clinic to talk about all new and follow-up patients. Then the patient comes in to see the providers, one after another. Patients don't see all the providers in the same order. The endocrinologist and psychologist are not in the clinic.   [25:39] The clinic visit takes three to four hours. It may involve skin testing for allergies or spirometry for lung function. The patient is scheduled for an endoscopy. When appropriate, they offer transnasal endoscopy, which takes only eight minutes and does not require anesthesia.   [27:11] If the patient has a stricture and the esophagus needs to be dilated, the patient is asleep for that. There is also the esophageal string test, developed by Dr. Furuta. It takes a little over an hour and tells whether there is active disease or not.   [28:02] Care has been made easier. Patients have different options for testing. Holly points out that the family is a part of the team and they are involved in every process and decision. Dr. Atkins says that shared decision-making is a cornerstone of care.   [29:31] Dr. Atkins says what happens in the room is the care provider and patient connect and the patient talks about their problems with somebody they trust. To get the patient to do what they need to do, they have to understand and feel understood.   [31:03] When Dr. Atkins started treating patients with asthma at National Jewish, patients came for a long evaluation, sometimes months. The only treatments were theophylline and steroids. There were side effects to those medications.   [31:39] Dr. Atkins says it has been wonderful to be involved while new treatments have evolved. For eosinophilic esophagitis, when diet works for people, it works. He shares the experience of a teen who is doing great on a diet eliminating milk and eggs.   [32:56] Don't discount diet. It's still up front. On the other hand, that doesn't work for some people. A metered dose inhaler with the puff swallowed may work for some. That's ideal for teenagers. There are other treatment choices like budesonide.   [34:14] Swallowed steroids go to the liver, where they are metabolized. Now biologics are revolutionizing treatment. Not everyone needs biologics but they're a great choice for some.   [35:30] A patient starting out doesn't need biologics as a first treatment. Other therapies may be effective and cheaper. If a patient doesn't respond, they can go to a biologic. More treatments are being developed.   [36:42] Dr. Atkins wishes for a way to determine the food trigger with a simple test.   [38:00] Dr. Altkins remembers Ryan as a little kid who should have gotten off of milk but he just wouldn't do it. He also recalls a patient who thrived when he was put on the right elimination diet, giving up only a couple of foods.   [38:33] Dr. Atkins doesn't want to diminish any of his patients. Every patient is an individual. It's so much fun working through the problems, the goal, and the adjustments to get there and how the patient is dealing with it, and then watching them do better!   [40:35] The hard part about eosinophilic esophagitis is that very few people outgrow it. It tends to be lifelong. But in the lifetime of patients he is seeing now, Dr. Atkins thinks we will see a cure, or at least, much easier, better treatments.   [40:56] In the population Dr. Atkins treats, they start treatment and all of a sudden, they're not having trouble swallowing. Everyone who had a dilation said they would do it again when needed. They can swallow better.   [41:44] But then, they have to maintain control of the inflammation. When people feel better, their impetus to take the medication drops off. If they stop taking their medications, a month later, they can't swallow their bagels.   [42:18] There are holidays, such as Halloween, that are challenging for kids who are on elimination diets. If they collect candy but can't eat any of it, that may be a problem.   [42:48] People who don't have EoE don't understand not being able to swallow. Dr. Atkins sees dads who have this but don't want to go get checked out. He tells them they need to be examples for their children and go get endoscopies to know if the condition is familial.   [43:53] Dr. Atkins says there are a number of other excellent programs in the country.   [44:24] Holly thanks Dr. Dan Atkins for sharing his expertise to help others and continually teaching the medical community how to recognize eosinophilic diseases and optimize care for all patients.   [44:40] Eosinophilic diseases are not going away. Allergists need to learn the ins and outs of all different eosinophilic disorders. The medications available to treat those disorders are increasing.    [45:02] Early in your career as an allergist, learn as much immunology as you can and how the biologics work and the newer medications coming out. Follow side effects so you know what to say to your patients and what to look for.   [45:20] A lot of EoE patients get picked up in the allergist's office because they have other allergic diseases. As an allergist, ask if the child or parent eats slower than everybody else.   [45:57] Ryan thanks Dr. Dan Atkins for joining today and personally, for all he has done to treat Ryan over the years. He thanks Dr. Atkins on behalf of APFED and for being instrumental in many APFED conferences and educational materials.   [46:30] Dr. Atkins's biggest hope is that people sort out the pathways that lead to eosinophilic esophagitis and that we will have an array of targeted treatments for individual patients to cure that disorder for that patient without side effects.   [47:50] Dr. Atkins thanks Ryan and Holly again for the opportunity to join them. It's been such a pleasure. He thanks APFED again. He has been a big fan for years. Giving patients a voice to share their stories is incredibly important.   [47:34] For our listeners who would like to learn more about eosinophilic disorders, please visit APFED.org and check out the links below.   [47:41] If you're looking to find a specialist who treats eosinophilic disorders, you can use APFED's Specialist Finder at APFED.org/specialist.   [47:51] If you'd like to connect with others impacted by eosinophilic diseases, please join APFED's online community on the Inspire Network at APFED.org/connections/.   [48:07] Holly thanks Dan and also thanks APFED's Education Partner Bristol Myers Squibb, GSK, Sanofi, and Regeneron, who supported this episode.   Mentioned in This Episode: Dr. Dan Atkins, pediatric allergist Children's Hospital Colorado National Institutes of Health National Jewish Health Allergy: Principles and Practice, by Elliott Middleton Jr., Charles E.

Description: Co-host Ryan Piansky, a graduate student and patient advocate living with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and eosinophilic asthma, and Holly Knotowicz, a speech-language pathologist and feeding specialist living with EoE who serves on APFED's Health Sciences Advisory Council, talk with Drs. Robin Shandas and Steven Ackerman, are scientists who work together at EnteroTrack. In this episode, Ryan and Holly interview Drs. Shandas and Ackerman about the development of the esophageal string test (EST), or simply the string test. They discuss the initial concept and the work that led to the development of the string test to collect samples from the upper gastrointestinal mucosa. The test involves swallowing a capsule, similar in size to a TicTacⓇ, with a string attached. It began as an overnight test, and today is a one-hour test. During the conversation, the researchers explained the use of the string test as a monitoring device for EoE, not as a diagnostic device. They describe how the test is administered with no endoscope, no anesthesia, no recovery time, and only minor discomfort for some patients. They discuss the age range for using the device (as young as 4) and the advantages it offers over traditional endoscopy and biopsy for frequent monitoring of eosinophilic esophagitis. Finally, they advise patients on how to access the test: Ask your clinician about it!   Disclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is designed to support, not replace the relationship that exists between listeners and their healthcare providers.

Opinions and views of guests and co-hosts are their own.   Key Takeaways: [:50] Co-host Ryan Piansky welcomes co-host Holly Knotowicz. Holly introduces the topic of a new unsedated diagnostic tool for EoE, the esophageal string test, or for the purposes of today's podcast episode, the string test.   [1:34] Holly introduces Drs. Robin Shandas and Steven Ackerman, are professional scientists who work together at EnteroTrack. Dr. Shandas is the Chief Executive Officer and Dr. Ackerman is the Chief Science Officer.   [1:48] Drs. Shandas and Ackerman, with a team of entrepreneurs, engineers, medical doctors, and scientists, developed the EnteroTracker®, the esophageal string test, a new method for collecting and sampling upper gastrointestinal mucosa.   [2:00] Holly thanks Drs. Shandas and Ackerman for joining us today.   [2:19] Dr. Ackerman has worked on the biology and the roles of eosinophils in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases, including asthma, eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders, and other hypereosinophilic syndromes for the past 40 years, starting when he was a post-doctoral fellow at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.   [2:44] About 18 years ago, Dr. Ackerman transitioned his lab to do more clinical translational research in eosinophilic GI diseases. His lab developed and validated the string test and the biomarkers and immunoassays that they use to evaluate the results.   [3:10] Dr. Ackerman was also interested in studying how the eosinophil participates in tissue remodeling and fibrosis of the esophagus in EoE and other eosinophil-associated diseases. Notably, this started with a small research grant from APFED in 2007 to 2008, which was followed by a more substantial APFED grant in 2011.   [3:51] Ryan was involved in APFED in 2007 and he remembers hearing about the early work that was going on for this new test. He thought it would be fantastic to have a test without anesthesia or a scope down his throat. It was exciting to hear about the development over time.   [4:23] Dr. Ackerman and Dr. Glenn Furuta, a pediatric gastroenterologist, initially conducted eosinophilic disease research together at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Ackerman eventually went to Chicago but continued to interact with Dr. Furuta. They published papers together on eosinophils and their roles in GI diseases.   [4:47] Dr. Ackerman was inspired to develop the string test when Dr. Furuta pointed out to him the tremendous need for a minimally-invasive or non-invasive test for EoE that would remove the need for children to have multiple repeat endoscopies and biopsies under sedation. [5:11] The endoscopies and biopsies were done to follow patient responses to treatment, especially food elimination diets. Dr. Ackerman's goal was to provide a way to evaluate disease activity in children with EoE in a minimally invasive or non-invasive fashion.   [5:42] Dr. Shandas is a biomedical engineer, entrepreneur, and educator. He has been a scientist for over 30 years. He is a Distinguished Professor of Bioengineering at The University of Colorado. His passion is to take ideas that he thinks can help people and go through the work. It's really, really hard work to bring those ideas to the clinic!   [6:07] Dr. Shandas has been working on the string test for some time. He started eight companies to support this type of activity. The idea of the string test, a simple, non-invasive way to collect samples from the esophagus to support frequent and granular monitoring of disease activity, was compelling when Drs. Furuta and Ackerman presented it to him.   [6:38] After Drs. Furuta and Ackerman received funding from APFED they did a lot of basic science research to develop the foundation of the string test. They approached Dr. Shandas to see if he could take the idea and figure out how they could help patients with it. That was compelling to him. He learned a lot about GI and EoE in the process.   [7:30] Dr. Ackerman and Dr. Furuta started working on the string test in 2006. It took more than 16 years from concept and pre-clinical lab studies to its marketing and adoption for routine clinical use. It was officially in the clinic at the beginning of 2023.   [8:01] Holly Knotowicz was a clinical fellow at Children's Hospital Colorado in 2010 where they were talking about this and she recognized this would be life-changing for patients in all populations not to have to participate in sedation to get updated information.   [8:32] The esophageal mucosa has biological information that may reflect the status of the disease in the esophagus. The conventional way of evaluating what is happening in the esophagus is to put a scope down the throat, pinch out a biopsy from the esophagus, and analyze that tissue for inflammatory cells and inflammatory markers.   [9:19] Dr. Shandas learned that the mucosa lining the esophagus has a lot of biological information. Because it is a barrier between the outside and your body it has a lot of biochemical reactions; it may be exposed to environmental allergens or food issues. These things interact with your body through the mucosal layer. It's a complex layer.   [10:08] Scientists are just starting to figure out the number of things that go on in the esophageal mucosal layer. The string test samples the esophageal mucosa from the throat down to the stomach, for the entire length of the esophagus. The mucosa is the repository of information on how your body interacts with EoE.   [10:39] The molecules that the body releases as a function of the reaction that's taking place are expressed in the mucosal layer. The string test collects samples of that mucosal layer. It's a simple, non-painful, non-traditional method of sampling.    [11:10] The researchers figured out there's a lot of biological information in the mucosa. Dr. Furuta and Dr. Ackerman have both done clinical studies comparing the string test against traditional biopsies to show that there are great correlations. So they set out to develop a clinically available test.   [11:30] For the past eight years, EnteroTrack has done work to answer questions such as: What is the process of swallowing the device and getting the sample? What is the process of analyzing the sample? And how do we put all of that into the framework of a clinical product that can be available to patients and clinicians?   [11:49] The string test is a phenomenally simple, easy way to sample mucosal content and analyze it for biomarkers, with no need for any sedation or anything to help you swallow the device. It's a very simple technique.   [12:32] Dr. Ackerman was a skeptic when Dr. Furuta first approached him with the idea. He agreed on the need to sample at the site of inflammation. He was surprised at how good the test was in the 16-hour overnight format, compared to endoscopy and biopsy. It was hard to tell the figures apart between the two tests.   [13:14] Dr. Ackerman learned they only needed to measure one eosinophil-specific biomarker, major basic protein-1, for a 16-hour test, but when they changed it to a one-hour test, they needed to measure two biomarkers to get enough of a sample. The second biomarker is eotaxin-3, which attracts the eosinophils into the esophagus.   [14:18] Dr. Ackerman tells of clinical validation. After multiple applications to the FDA Rare Diseases Program, they were able to get substantial funding to do a Stage 2 clinical evaluation. It was a four-year grant but it took six years to recruit all the patients. They completed and published it in 2019 as the basis for the string test and EoE score.   [15:03] Today, the string test is a one-hour test. The visit takes about 90 minutes, including the test, preparation, and removal of the string. The sample is sent to a reference lab. They analyze it and in about 10 days, send your doctor a report that describes the EoE score and the magnitude of the disease.   [16:43] There is no recommended frequency for the string test. It can be done as often as your doctor wants to keep track of changes in your disease. Until the string test, there hasn't been a real solution to monitor the disease, with samples every week, two weeks, or four weeks. The researchers encourage patients to ask their clinicians for the string test.   [18:19] After setting a baseline, the frequency of tests can be determined by the patient's progress and the clinician's findings.   [18:45] The string test is not a replacement for endoscopy. Endoscopy plays an important role in definitively diagnosing the disease and getting a comprehensive sense of what's going on with the disease. The string test is a complement to endoscopy.    [19:23] An endoscopic pinch biopsy samples a tiny fraction of the esophageal surface area. EoE is a patchy disease. It can manifest in different places in your esophagus. You may need to do multiple biopsies to make sure you're covering the esophagus nicely and identify a location where the disease manifests.   [20:01] An advantage of the string test is that in one test, you get a sample from your throat to your stomach, the entire length of the esophagus. That allows you to get a very comprehensive evaluation of your esophagus. The ease, cost, time savings, out-patient setting, no endoscopy suite, no endoscopist, and no anesthesiologist, are advantages.   [20:39] EnteroTrack is pursuing the possibility of doing point-of-care in-home use of the string test. This would be a significant advantage over the traditional way of monitoring the disease.   [21:08] A string test cannot be used instead of an endoscopy to make the initial diagnosis of EoE. It's intended as a monitoring tool. Its clinical indication is not as a diagnostic test but for monitoring the disease, in combination with a lab analysis of the assay. Endoscopy is used for the diagnosis.   [21:45] In areas where endoscopy and biopsy are not locally available, doctors might use the string test to screen patients to consider referring them to a center where they can get an endoscopy and a biopsy as an initial diagnostic tool.   [22:49] Holly is excited to have access to the string test for patients on elimination diets, to test more frequently as foods are reintroduced one at a time to the diet, without putting the patient under anesthesia for a traditional endoscopy.   [23:58] During the monitoring of EoE, if the doctor sees the data is trending in a certain way, it may be useful to get an endoscopy and biopsy to get additional information.   [24:28] Ryan has had dozens of traditional endoscopies and biopsies so he's always excited to hear about new tests. He's been putting off an endoscopy and he needs one soon. Is Ryan, an adult, a candidate for this procedure at his local hospital? Yes! He has been diagnosed with EoE, so he can be monitored by the string test.   [25:12] The youngest patient to swallow the device was a four-year-old and they did great with it; the test was very successful. EnteroTrack recommends that parents talk to their child's physician about the option to use this device. The key is if the patient, parent, and clinicians all feel that the patient can swallow the device.   [25:35] The string test device is about the size of a TicTac®. It's important for the swallowing procedure to be successful. EnteroTrack works with clinical groups to give them tips on how best to ensure that the procedure is successful.   [25:56] Holly is a feeding specialist. One of the things she helps people with eosinophilic diseases to learn is how to swallow pills. She helps them practice with different kinds of candies and capsules.    [26:40] The clinical validation study included patients aged seven and older. Now that the product is released, clinicians, parents, and patients can together make the decision if they can swallow it. EnteroTrack looks at de-identified data to evaluate how the string test is doing. They are seeing younger age groups successfully swallow it.   [27:25] There are factors that contribute to successful swallowing. One is the parental motivation of their children. Also, practice swallowing something the size of the device.   [27:39] EnteroTrack is providing training to physicians and nurses at the centers that are adopting the test. They are aware of how to make the swallowing part of this test as successful as possible with the least amount of stress.   [28:02] The EnteroTracker® is considered a minimal-risk device, and minimal-risk procedure. If you are anxious about swallowing, or you have challenges as you swallow it, you may gag a little bit.   [28:37] In the Phase 2 data, there was a small percentage who had challenges in terms of gagging, when swallowing the device. All of those issues were resolved. Even if the patient gags, the clinician has tips to help the patient get through that. Repeated gulps of water can help bring the capsule down and alleviate those issues.   [29:37] In the clinical validation studies, there were hundreds of string tests performed and there were no serious adverse reactions or problems other than the minor problem of some gagging. During the 16-hour tests, there was one patient who chewed through the string while sleeping and swallowed it. The string just passed through the GI tract.   [32:47] Dr. Shandas has personally swallowed about 50 string tests to understand the patient experience. After the swallow, when the string is in the esophagus, there is a feeling of tickling in the side of the throat in the beginning, but that resolves in a couple of minutes and it is not noticed at all. It helps if the patient has something to occupy their attention.   [34:05] The nurses and clinicians are trained to pull the device out, not fast and not slow. It should take three to five seconds. There is some discomfort as the string is coming out. It may feel like burning in the throat but it happens quickly and it resolves immediately. They have not seen big challenges with this, much less than in swallowing.   [34:50] The string has two parts. The part that goes from your mouth down your throat is like dental floss. It's connected to the collection string that goes down the esophagus to the stomach. That collection string is a thicker nylon yarn designed to optimally collect mucosal samples. It would be uncomfortable in the throat, but not in the esophagus.   [36:06] EnteroTrack has gotten a Medicare code for the assay and a Medicare reimbursement for the assay. The next step is getting private insurers to pay for the test. EnteroTrack is working on that. It will require educating insurance companies about the value of the test. Patients, clinicians, and groups like APFED can help.   [37:51] The string test is clearly less expensive than doing an endoscopy and biopsy. That should be one of the motivating factors for insurance companies. It is significantly lower cost than the test that is used as the standard of care.   [38:38] Some large centers have begun using the esophageal string test, including Denver, Phoenix, Tampa, Dallas, and Chicago. EnteroTrack has received interest from clinicians and patients around the country.   [39:04] Patients and parents, let your clinicians know if you are interested in the esophageal string test (EST). Your doctor can contact EnteroTrack and ask how to get the test to their clinic. It's a simple process and the clinical training is very straightforward.   [39:35] APFED plans to add information about the esophageal string test to its Specialist Finder at apfed.org/specialist to help patients find clinicians offering this test.   [39:53] Drs. Ackerman and Shandas anticipate that the number of centers offering this test will grow exponentially as people see that it's working for early adopters.   [40:10] Ryan and Holly thank Drs. Shandas and Ackerman for sharing their expertise to help others today in the podcast. Dr. Shandas thanks Ryan, Holly, and APFED for the opportunity to talk about the string test.   [40:35] As entrepreneurs and researchers, they are constantly innovating, including looking for other applications for the string test. They have clinical trials going on to use the string test for esophageal issues, gastric issues, and small intestinal issues, analyzing the contents for different biomarkers that have correlations with a lot of upper GI diseases.   [41:22] To learn more about eosinophilic esophagitis, visit apfed.org/eoe, to access the Specialist Finder, visit apfed.org/specialists, and to connect with patients and families living with eosinophilic disorders, visit apfed.org/eos-connections.

Becky Furuta was pregnant with her second child and racing her bike for a domestic elite team based out of Boulder, Colorado when she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The then 28-year-old's family has a history of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, so when Furuta first experienced the symptoms of the condition, she called her doctor and requested an early screening for gestational diabetes. Her midwife performed a routine glucose tolerance test. The results sent her straight to the emergency room.

Junko Furuta was a 17 year old student at Yashio-Minami High School. She was a good student who had high hopes for the future as she was saving for a trip post graduation and had a job lined up. On the night of November 25, 1988, Furuta was on her way home from work when she was kicked off her bike by and unknown teenaged boy. A few seconds later, another teenaged boy appeared and helped her. He offered to walk her home. Unbeknownst to Furuta, both boys (Hiroshi Miyano and Shinji Minato) were friends who planned this out. Miyano lead Furuta to a warehouse, where she was beaten and raped. She was held captive at Misato's home for 40 days. Miyano, Minato and two of their friends, Jō Ogura and Yasushi Watanabe beat, tortured and raped Furuta. Minato's family never reported the crimes as they feared their son and his friends. Furuta succumbed to her injuries on January 4, 1989. Fearing the consequences, the boys wrapped Furuta's body in blankets and placed her in a metal drum, which was then filled with wet concrete. Over the next four months, the boys continued to commit more violent crimes. After being arrested for an unrelated crime, Miyano confessed to killing Furuta and dumping her body after thinking Ogura confessed as well. The four boys were arrested and charged with murder. They all served anywhere from 5 to 20 years in prison. Furuta's family and the public believed the sentences were too light. Once they got out, most of them continued to commit crimes.

Junko Furuta was just 17 years old when she was raped, beaten, and killed by four teenage boys in 1980s Japan. . . And up until her kidnapping at age 17, she was a normal, happy and sweet girl. Furuta was known for being pretty, bright, and getting good grades at Yashio-Minami High School. Despite her “good girl” reputation — she didn't drink, smoke, or use drugs — she was quite popular at school and seemingly had a bright future ahead of her. So why was she viciously beaten, tortured, raped and made o suffer the most inhumane treatment anyone could imagine?

Le 25 novembre 1988, Furuta Junko, une lycéenne de 17 ans, était enlevée par 4 jeunes apprentis yakuza qui lui firent vivre 39 jours de cauchemar et d'agonie avant une mort libératrice.

Als die 17-jährige Junko Furuta die Frage von Hiroshi bekommt, ob sie mit ihm ausgehen möchte, ist sie zunächst erstaunt darüber. Doch weil sie seinen Ruf kennt, lehnt sie höflich ab. Mit dieser Zurückweisung unterschreibt die Jugendliche ihr eigenes Todesurteil. Sie wird von einer Gruppe Jugendlicher entführt, gefangen gehalten und gefoltert. Obwohl einige Leute das mitbekamen, unternahm niemand etwas, um Junko zu helfen...

Furuta was born in Misato, Saitama Prefecture. She lived with her parents, her elder brother, and her younger brother.As a teenager, she attended Yashio-Minami High School and worked part-time at a plastic molding factory during after-school hours since October 1988. She did this to save up money for a graduation plan she had arranged. Furuta also accepted a job at an electronics retailer, where she planned on working after graduation. At high school, Furuta was well-liked by her classmates, with high grades and very infrequent absences. The perpetrators were four teenage boys: Hiroshi Miyano (宮野裕史, Miyano Hiroshi, 18 years old), Jō Ogura (小倉譲, Ogura Jō, 17), Shinji Minato (湊伸治, Minato Shinji, 16), and Yasushi Watanabe (渡邊恭史, Watanabe Yasushi, 17), who were respectively referred to as "A", "B", "C", and "D" in court documents. At the time of the crime, they used the second floor of Minato's house as a hangout, and had, as chimpira, previously engaged in crimes including purse snatching, extortion, and rape. On 25 November 1988, Miyano and Minato wandered around Misato with the intention of robbing and raping local women. At 8:30 p.m., they spotted Furuta riding her bike home after she had finished a shift at her job. Under Miyano's orders, Minato kicked Furuta off her bike and fled the scene. Miyano, under the pretence of witnessing the attack by coincidence, approached Furuta and offered to walk her home safely. Furuta, accepting this offer, was unaware that Miyano was leading her to a nearby warehouse, where he revealed his yakuza connections. He raped her in the warehouse and again in a nearby hotel, threatening to kill her. From the hotel, Miyano called Minato and his other friends, Jō Ogura and Yasushi Watanabe, and bragged to them about the rape. Ogura reportedly asked Miyano to keep her in captivity in order to allow numerous people to sexually assault her. The group had a history of gang rape and had recently kidnapped and raped another girl, whom they released afterward. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thes3podcast/message

In the 8th episode of Season 3, your host JD Horror brings you two more extremely disturbing tales as we give you part 5 of our series on Sexual Sadists.WARNING: The following episode continues graphic and disturbing depictions of sexual torture and violence. This episode is definitely not for the faint of heart. Listener discretion is strongly advised. You’ve been warned.Case #1: 44 Days of Hell - Four Japanese teenagers abducted 17 year old Junko Furuta, and for 44 days she was subjected to every form of torture imaginable. Known in the Japanese media as the "Concrete Encased School Girl Murder Case", this is definitely one of the most brutal and heinous crimes in all of human history. (The Murder of Junko Furuta, Japan)Case #2: The Collector - Bob Berdella, better known as "The Kansas City Butcher" who take his inspiration from a 1963 novel as a teen. The brutality of his crimes would eclipse anything that author John Fowles could have imagined when he wrote the story. Berdella would be convicted of the rape, torture, and murder of six men... But could there have been more? (B. Berdella, Kansas City, OH, USA)If you like what you hear here on True Crime Horror Story please subscribe and give us a 5 star review.

In this episode of Bowel Sounds, hosts Drs. Peter Lu, Jennifer Lee, and Jason Silverman talk to Dr. Glenn Furuta about eosinophilic esophagitis. We discuss how our understanding of eosinophilic esophagitis has evolved over time and the key role the pediatric GI community played in studying this disease. We discuss some of the more challenging aspects of its diagnosis and treatment, including the role of proton pump inhibitors and how to encourage compliance with dietary and pharmacological treatment. We also discuss recent innovations that will address barriers our patients currently face. Finally, Dr. Furuta reflects on his career and passes along advice that has helped him become a leader in this field.As always, the discussion, views, and recommendations in this podcast are the sole responsibility of the hosts and guests and are subject to change over time with advances in the field.Produced by: Peter LuSpecial requests:Thank you to everyone for listening to our podcast.

The case of Junko Furuta is one of the most tragic and horrifying stories of abduction and torture out there. Furuta was abducted, held captive, and killed by her Japanese gangster classmates for 44 days. During that time she suffered an incredible amount of abuse. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/conspiracies-and-mysterie/support

The Junko Furuta case is one of the most horrific in true crime history. It involves a 17yo Japanese school girl who was abducted and imprisoned by 4 teenage boys, who committed unfathomable acts of cruelty and violence against her. This is one of the most requested cases we receive, and we truly hope we did it justice. It is a very difficult case to discuss. Disclaimer: It is GRAPHIC. We will return with Lori Vallow news and updates next week, continuing our deep-dive into the cast of characters. ---------------------------------------------We would like to thank our Executive Producers:Ashley MChristy KIan MCristi RAshley BFaye SAmy SIris-Dora SKathleen HLeeAnn MShawna SYlana MTamara R...as well as all of our other Patrons!

In young children, many of the symptoms of eosinophilic esophagitis resemble those of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)—including feeding disorders and poor weight gain—so the child may be mistakenly diagnosed with GERD. In today’s episode we talk to Glenn Furuta, MD about the importance of a proper diagnosis of esophagitis in children, signs/symptoms to look for and effective treatment options. Dr. Furuta is the La Cache Endowed Chair for GI Allergic and Immunologic Diseases, the Director of Gastrointestinal Eosinophilic Diseases Program at Children’s Colorado and a Professor of Pediatrics in Gastroenterology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.

When Becky Furuta was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, her doctor told her it was the end of her professional cycling career. But, having initially taken up cycling as a daily escape from childhood poverty, Becky wasn't about to take the news lying down. A little more than a decade later, she's an ambassador for Team Novo Nordisk – the world's first all-diabetes pro-cycling team - and can reflect on a career at the pinnacle of professional bike racing.

Happy 2019 everyone! May the coming year be full of joy and laughter and all the good stuff for you and everyone you know! Time to breakdown the events of the Junko Furuta case. not for the feint of heart, it's very immature and inappropriate, and kind of annoying... To be perfectly honest. Then, seeing as we feel we did a pretty weak job with this breakdown (it's Christmas/ New Years and we've been on other sides of the country and a bit lazy with the holidays etc etc) we recorded a "Jack and Shaun watch: The Belko Experiment" usually these are exclusive for our Patrons, but we messed this one up, so we're giving out to everyone instead! Enjoy! We'll be back to our much more organized and professional selves as of the next episode, I mean... it's the holidays yo!

Mary Adams Urashima is a historian, former journalist and freelance writer, with thirty years in media, governmental and public affairs, and author of Historic Wintersburg in Huntington Beach (History Press). She chairs the grassroots preservation effort to save the Furuta Gold Fish Farm and Wintersburg Japanese Mission property in Huntington Beach, known as Historic Wintersburg. Mary identified and named the historic property, which was designated one of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places in 2014 and one of America’s National Treasures in 2015. Mary has been researching and working to save Historic Wintersburg for almost nine years. Historic Wintersburg marks more than a century of Japanese American history and represents pioneer arrival and settlement in the American West, Orange County’s agricultural history, pioneer achievement, and the struggle for civil liberties. Everyone associated with the Furuta farm and Wintersburg Japanese Mission faced alien land laws and was forcibly removed from California and incarcerated during World War II.

The story of Junko Furuta is a tragic one to say the least. Most people assume that torturing another human being is something only a minority are capable of doing. When someone tortures just, for the sake of it... That's when we are forced to explore the darkest aspects of what we are capable of doing to one another, when we seem to lose all remnants of what it means to be a civilized member of society.

There are good films, bad films, and Cult films.  Well, two out of three ain't bad.  Today on GeekFest Rants Carlos will look at the  Michael Mann WWII horror film, The Keep.  Even the greatest of film makers have a skeleton in their closet and this one might be it for Michael Mann.  Even with a superb cast like Scott Glenn, Gabriel Byrne, Jürgen Prochnow, and Ian McKellen, this one misses the mark.  But is there something good about it that we might want to take a second look at?  Then we'll look at Star Trek toy ships.  From brands like Micro Machines, Furuta, Hallmark, Hot Wheels, and Eaglemoss.  So many choices, so little money.

Our second episode of August is here, as prophecy hath foretold!  On this outing, our protagonists Anthony and Paul (and demi-antihero Jeremy) change up the formula a bit! We lead off with our "listening party" segment, and Shatter by Jeramiah "Module" Holmes gets us into a groove with the much-beloved soundtrack to the 2009 brick-breaker. We hope you like music, because we have a LOT of Shatter to share.  Our second feature is an ambivalent pick from Anthony: Square Enix' Chrono Trigger & Chrono Cross Arrangement Album, by Yasunori Mitsuda and Millennial Fair, which wobbles back and forth over that line of "good adaptations." The crew loves a good musical, but we discuss some interesting choices that leave us a bit… conflicted. In our switch-up second segment, Paul gives the grand tour of the last two weeks' news. It's not a financially-overwhelming segment (this time!) but we have a few special highlights that you won't want to miss. How will we ever fit our mandatory Vita mention into this episode? You'll see! Finally, in the third segment, the crew decides it's high time to discuss the art and science of caring for that lovingly-collected vinyl library you've been nurturing. How do we store our records? What's the best way to clean them? Does it make a difference if you change the needle on your record player? How can you make a quick buck cleaning everyone else's records? We cover it all! Join in and share us with your friends! Let us know if you prefer the new format, the old, or if it's no matter!
