Can Artificial Intelligence make medical research easier to understand? This AI-generated content (we hesitate to call it a traditional "podcast") was brought to our attention by one of Dr. Blevins' patients, who discovered it in a Facebook patient group. The creator used a well-known AI platform to analyze one of Dr. Blevins' recently published papers on PWN, translating the complex medical language into plain English with more accessible terms and less technical jargon. As you will hear, the platform generated a dialog. The goal was simply to better understand the content. You can read Dr. Blevins' original paper, "The Evolution of Our Understanding of the Nuances of Pathologic Cortisol Secretion," [here]. After carefully reviewing the AI-generated content for accuracy, Dr. Blevins found that the platform did an excellent job of simplifying the material and making the language more approachable for patients and general audiences. Following thorough consideration, we decided to publish it on PWN—and here it is! We Want to Hear From You What are your thoughts on AI-generated medical content? Does this approach help bridge the communication gap between complex research and patient understanding? Please share your opinions with us at info@pituitaryworldnews.com or comment on this article.

They can fly by before you even hear them - those sleek two wheeled battery powered scooters. They are transforming city sidewalks, bike lanes and roads, often bypassing traffic jams and drawing riders with a quick zip to their destination. But beyond the breezy rides there's a growing concern. Emergency room doctors are sounding the alarm - injuries linked to e-scooters have surged 32% in just one year, according to the latest data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information. Head trauma, shattered bones, sudden emergency department visits from what seems like a quick, fun ride. Sales are booming, sidewalks are crowding, and city planners and politicians are scrambling to figure out where they belong. Our question: Are e-scooters revolutionizing your daily commute or are they an accident waiting to happen?
As electric scooters gain popularity, the Canadian Institute of Health Information reports a rise in related injuries. It found nearly 1,000 people were hospitalized from scooter or e-scooter incidents over the course of a year. HUB Cycling is offering courses on using e-scooters and road safety. Its executive director, Rose Gardner, joins the show as we ask viewers about their experiences with e-scooters.

A new study coauthored by Dr. Vibeke Manniche shows birth rates plummeted in 2022. The Czech study reveals women vaccinated for COVID-19 had significantly lower conception rates than unvaccinated women from June 2021 to 2023. Using nationwide data from the Institute of Health Information and Statistics, researchers analyzed 1.3 million women aged 18-39. By late 2021, 70% were vaccinated, mostly with Pfizer or Moderna mRNA shots. By 2022, conception rates were 1.5 times higher in unvaccinated women.

Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat, the podcast where we cut through the noise and myths swirling around modern healthcare—one evidence-based conversation at a time. I'm Dr. Mark Bonta, and in today's episode, get ready to hear from one of our returning guests: Dr. Samira Jeimy, allergist, immunologist, associate professor, and the straight-talking force behind Allergies Explained.Dr. Jeimy is here to tackle her “Top 10 Propaganda Pieces” as an allergy expert—the big healthcare myths, media soundbites, and outright scams that drive her up the wall. From debunking the so-called ‘immunity debt' theory and the raw milk craze, to exposing the truth behind pricey food intolerance tests and the seductive marketing of wellness supplements, she brings a blend of humor, clinical wisdom, and no-nonsense clarity.You'll hear why “natural” doesn't always mean safe, how supplement and testing industries prey on patient anxiety, and why stories—more than science—often shape the health choices we make. Dr. Jeimy also takes us inside the real conversations she has with patients confused by allergy myths, and how she helps untangle fact from fiction, one appointment at a time.Whether you're a healthcare professional, a chronic allergy sufferer, a concerned parent, or just tired of being bamboozled in the supplement aisle, this episode brings fresh perspective, sharp debunking, and a dose of laughter to your feed. So cozy up and get ready to ditch the misinformation, as we dive into the truth behind the top allergy and immunology myths with Dr. Samira Jeimy.Episode HighlightsImmunity Debt Myth Don't believe the narrative that lack of infection "weakens" your immune system; real harm comes from infections, not their absence.Food Intolerance Tests Are Useless Expensive food intolerance tests measure exposure, not intolerance, leading to wasted money and unnecessary diet restrictions.Natural Isn't Always Safe “Natural” products (like raw milk, plant oils) aren't automatically safe—many can cause harm or severe allergic reactions.Eczema Not About Food Eliminating foods often doesn't cure eczema; the real issue is inflammation of the skin, not food allergies.Overtesting Creates False Allergies Unnecessary allergy testing leads to false positives, unhelpful labels, and dangerous food restrictions.Episode Timestamps 4:16 — Influencer Impact on Health Information 6:35 — "Storytelling's Impact in Tech and Health" 12:51 — Health Concerns or Misdirection? 16:52 — Food Desensitization and Lifestyle Changes 20:07 — Countering Misinformation on Allergies 21:46 — Dietary Restrictions and Relationship Strain 25:24 — Immune System Overreaction Dangers 27:48 — Benadryl: Canada's Sole IV Antihistamine 31:12 — Dairy, Sugar, and Skin Health 35:08 — Unreported Complementary Health Treatments 38:52 — The Limitations of Unvalidated Diagnostic Tests 42:46 — Dr. Jamie: Compassionate Healthcare AdvocateDISCLAMER >>>>>> The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

Vikram Bhaskran, CEO and Co-Founder, and Dr. Rohan Ramakrishna, Chief Medical Officer and Co-Founder of Roon, have taken on the mission to provide trustworthy and personalized medical information to patients and caregivers. Leveraging technology and the expertise of medical professionals, Roon has created a comprehensive resource for navigating medical challenges. They emphasize the importance of addressing misinformation and providing accurate, science-based information. The platform is not intended to replace doctors, but to supplement relevant information and enable better communication with healthcare providers and improve patient outcomes. Vikram explains, "Our mission is to be the best place online for anyone navigating any health condition. I started the company really through my own journey as a caregiver to my dad, who had ALS. And in that journey, I had two insights. One is that the biggest tech companies fail us. And in this moment of crisis, most people navigating any health condition will turn to "Doctor Google" and Facebook groups, which can be an overwhelming experience. And so I felt we could do better as someone coming from the tech world. I was at Pinterest before this, and my second insight was that there's a finite number of doctors. And so the experience of health today for really anyone is that you spend a ton of time in waiting rooms. You spend a ton of time waiting for someone to answer your health questions. And so Roon was born out of those two insights. And our goal is to be the best online platform to scale the world's best medical experts and their knowledge." Rohan elaborates, "The doctors are from more than 70 different academic medical institutions, and the number is growing. They represent all the experts who have expertise to share alongside the health journeys we've launched. So as of today, we've launched brain cancer, ALS, dementia, Fertility and Family Building, PCOS, endometriosis, menopause, and we are soon to launch several other conditions related to women's health, including gynecological health. Our experts span the doctors you would expect, such as oncologists, neurologists, and OBGYNs, among others, but also social workers, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, and legal and financial counselors - really anyone who has real expertise that they can lend to the experience of a journey. So much of dementia care, for example, is not driven by your neurologist, but by the experience of caring for someone who needs help, whether it's at a memory care facility or a skilled nursing facility, dealing with issues that doctors typically don't have a great answer for." #Roon #HealthcareInformation #MedAI #HealthcareOutcomes #DigitalHealth roon.com Download the transcript here

They discuss the significance of the final rule on Section 1557 and nondiscrimination in the use of patient care decision support tools, legal frameworks that apply to the use of health AI, how the “deliberate indifference” standard might be applied, how hospitals and health systems can demonstrate they are not being deliberately indifferent to potential discrimination risks in their AI tools, and enforcement trends.

A peer reviewed study from the University of British Columbia analyzed the most popular ADHD-related videos on TikTok and found that very few of them contain information that aligns with medical diagnostics. Even more interesting, people who consume this kind of content perceive the diagnosis to be far more widespread - and symptoms far more intense - than in reality. Social media is warping our sense of reality and self?! Inconceivable! Plus: New bi-partisan legislation aims to repeal Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. The 1996 law shields websites from litigation if their users upload harmful content. This protection is integral to how the modern Web functions, and erasing it could lead to over-moderation and fear-based censorship. While harmful user content is always a concern, the true problem with social media is not that the content exists, but its weaponization by tech companies in the name of profit. In this case, Congress is fixing the wrong problem, and the consequences could damage online speech for years to come.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Paul Offit discuss the MMR vaccine, the history of it, and the current decay of measles herd immunity today. Many parents are refusing to vaccinate their children, referencing politicians, actors, and social activists who lack correct information regarding the vaccine. Even if an unvaccinated child recovers from measles, they may, years later, develop a fatal encephalitis from the measles virus that has hidden in their brains. Dr. Offit thus discusses not only the serious potential complications of measles during the illness but the risks of later and seemingly unrelated fatalities in the unvaccinated. Key Takeaways: School vaccine mandates were born in the mid-1970s, especially in big cities, as outbreaks were often spread in schools. In a portion of children who recover from measles, the measles virus still remains hidden in the brain and can result in encephalitis. You have the right to make decisions about your own health, but you don't have the right to make your child a martyr for your cause. Many of those activating against vaccinations are still referencing an invalidated and retracted paper from 1998. "Medicine's hard enough – there is so much we can't do - but this we can do! We can prevent this disease, so watching parents, knowingly, put their children in harm's way, and putting those their children come in contact with in harm's way, has been very hard to watch." — Dr. Paul Offit Connect with Dr. Paul Offit: Professional Bio: https://www.chop.edu/doctors/offit-paul-a Book: Bad Advice: Or Why Celebrities, Politicians, and Activists Aren't Your Best Source of Health Information and More!
