This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik It focuses specifically on the many points in the novel, after the surprise attack on Glen Runciter, Joe Chip, and the entire team of the inertials, where a seemingly dead and in cold-pac Runciter breaks through into the "reality" of those who think themselves survivors. At first this happens through strange written interventions, like a matchbook cover, graffiti, and notes, and through Runciter appearing on currency. As time goes on, the manifestations extend to video and even a meeting between Joe Chip and Glen Runciter.

Send us a textAdd this episode to your Helpful file. Have you been in rooms like David uncomfortably endured in a recent Great Clips experience? His skilled hair-stylist lacked read-the-room-awareness or a voice that didn't make his skin crawl. Intervention was needed. So we unpacked it. And we probed how new grandpa David's son gently corrected his clumsy baby-holding skills. Intervention well done.
Dr. Josh Mitteldorf summarizes his #research perspective #published in Volume 17, Issue 5 of Aging (Aging-US), titled “Methylation clocks for evaluation of anti-aging interventions.” DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.206245 Corresponding author - Josh Mitteldorf - aging.advice@gmail.com Author interview - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efgNvr5ezTk Video short - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjUvpqMzCGc Abstract Methylation clocks have found their way into the community of aging research as a way to test anti-aging interventions without having to wait for mortality statistics. But methylation is a primary means of epigenetic control, and presumably has evolved under strong selection. Hence, if methylation patterns change consistently at late ages it must mean one of two things. Either (1) the body is evolved to destroy itself (with inflammation, autoimmunity, etc.), and the observed methylation changes are a means to this end; or (2) the body detects accumulated damage, and is ramping up repair mechanisms in a campaign to rescue itself. My thesis herein is that both Type 1 and Type 2 changes are occurring, but that only Type 1 changes are useful in constructing methylation clocks to evaluate anti-aging interventions. This is because a therapy that sets back Type 1 changes to an earlier age state has stopped the body from destroying itself; but a therapy that sets back Type 2 changes has stopped the body from repairing itself. Thus, a major challenge before the community of epigenetic clock developers is to distinguish Type 2 from Type 1. The existence of Type 1 epigenetic changes is in conflict with conventional Darwinian thinking, and this has prompted some researchers to explore the possibility that Type 1 changes might be a form of stochastic epigenetic drift. I argue herein that what seems like directed epigenetic change really is directed epigenetic change. Of five recent articles on “stochastic methylation clocks,” only one (from the Conboy lab) is based on truly stochastic changes. Using the Conboy methodology and a methylation database, I construct a measure of true methylation drift, and show that its correlation with age is too low to be useful.

In this episode of the Autism Little Learners Podcast, I sit down with Alex Lamoreaux—a mom of three, including two autistic boys—to talk about her personal and powerful journey with autism. From receiving a late diagnosis herself to navigating complex medical advice, Alex shares how she shifted from fear to confidence in parenting. We dive into what it really means to trust your gut as a parent and honor the unique needs of each child. This heartfelt conversation explores the emotional ups and downs of advocating for autistic kids and highlights the power of intuition, self-advocacy, and community. You won't want to miss Alex's inspiring and relatable story. Bio Alex Lamoreaux is a late-diagnosed neurodivergent mom of three young boys and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in addiction recovery and trauma treatment. After two of her sons were diagnosed with autism, she dove into learning—and unlearning—what it really means to support autistic children. Now in the thick of parenting and advocacy, Alex shares practical, real-life insights with honesty and heart, hoping to spark connection and offer support to fellow parents on similar journeys. Alex's TikTok Account https://www.tiktok.com/@alex.lamx?_t=ZT-8xBXQBH46la&_r=1 Takeaways Late diagnosis can provide clarity and reduce shame over past differences. Parents often feel overwhelmed by the amount of information available. Shifting from panic to empowerment is crucial in parenting. Each autistic child is unique and requires different interventions. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to autism. Trusting parental instincts is essential for effective parenting. You do not have to fill your child's day with therapy. Trust your gut feelings about your child's needs. Parents often know their children best, despite professional opinions. Medical professionals may not always have the latest information on autism. Advocating for your child can be challenging, but it is essential. Bringing a list to meetings can help parents stay focused. Cognitive dissonance is common when navigating medical advice. Parents should feel empowered to change providers if necessary. Finding clarity amidst overwhelming information is crucial for parents.

More than 3 million young people aged 15-24 in South Africa are not in employment, education, or training (NEET). They have fallen through the cracks, shut out of learning and earning prospects because they haven’t completed matric, or don’t have post-school qualifications or general work experience. This lack of opportunity has a devastating effect: continued unemployment leads to financial hardship, worsening mental health, exposure to crime and violence and social isolation, both in their community and wider society.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, host Dennis engages with Andy Fisher to discuss the controversial topic of needle decompression in Individual First Aid Kits (IFACs). They explore the historical context of IFAC contents, the effectiveness of needle decompression, and the challenges in identifying tension pneumothorax in the pre-hospital setting. The conversation also delves into the training and decision-making processes in combat medicine, assessment techniques for pneumothorax, and potential alternatives to needle decompression. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the evolving perspectives on thoracostomy and its application in pre-hospital settings, particularly in combat medicine. They discuss the implications of tension physiology in hemothorax and the prevalence of massive hemothorax in recent years. The conversation also revisits treatment protocols for chest injuries, emphasizing the need for a shift towards simple thoracostomy over needle decompression. Finally, they evaluate the use of pigtail catheters versus traditional chest tubes, weighing the pros and cons of each in emergency situations.TakeawaysNeedle decompression is debated in the context of IFACs.Historical context shows that needle decompression was not originally included in official DOD lists.Hemorrhage is the leading cause of mortality in trauma cases.Tension pneumothorax is rare, occurring in only 1.1% of cases.Identifying tension pneumothorax in pre-hospital settings is challenging.Medics should rely on objective data for decision-making.Training often prioritizes speed over thorough assessment.Prophylactic interventions for tension pneumothorax may not be effective.Chest tubes are not always life-saving interventions.Exploring alternatives like finger thoracostomy may be beneficial. Evolving views on thoracostomy emphasize its selective use.Needle decompression may be overused in practice.Tension physiology can occur with blood accumulation in the chest.Massive hemothorax is increasingly recognized in trauma cases.Up to 49% of combat casualties require chest tubes.Simple thoracostomy should be prioritized over needle decompression.Patient monitoring is crucial in pre-hospital settings.Pigtail catheters may not be suitable for pre-hospital use.Chest tubes are preferred for their reliability in emergencies.Comfort for the patient is important but should not compromise urgent care.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Guest01:01 Debate on Needle Decompression in IFACs03:20 Historical Context of IFAC Contents06:40 Effectiveness of Needle Decompression09:09 Challenges in Identifying Tension Pneumothorax12:00 Training and Decision-Making in Combat Medicine16:21 Assessment Techniques for Pneumothorax21:29 Interventions for Tension Pneumothorax25:19 Exploring Alternatives to Needle Decompression25:50 Evolving Perspectives on Thoracostomy31:38 Understanding Tension Physiology in Hemothorax36:41 Revisiting Treatment Protocols for Chest Injuries43:12 Evaluating Pigtail Catheters vs. Chest TubesThank you to Delta Development Team for in part, sponsoring this podcast.deltadevteam.comFor more content, go to www.prolongedfieldcare.orgConsider supporting us: patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective or www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care

Brent Minchew is Co-Founder, Executive Director, and Chief Scientist at Arête Glacier Initiative, a new nonprofit launched to close the gap between frontier glaciology research and actionable sea-level forecasts—and to probe whether “brake-tapping” inside Antarctic glaciers can slow their slide into the sea. Brent explains why current models still span 1–6 feet of rise by 2100—even if Paris targets are met—and how melting glaciers, especially Antarctica's so-called “Doomsday Glacier,” drive that uncertainty. He details why glaciology remains drastically underfunded, how sea-level changes already threaten coastal economies via insurance markets, and where Arête's first $5 million in philanthropic capital is going. He also walks through early-stage solutions—from thermo-siphons that passively refreeze ice to pumping sub-glacial water—that could “hit the brakes” on glacier flow and buy humanity time for deep decarbonization.In this episode, we cover: [03:45] Launching Arête to bridge glacier science and solutions[05:38] Inside the “doomsday glacier” and its global risk[07:18] Why Thwaites may collapse even if we hit climate goals[09:51] Sea level rise: Millions displaced per inch[12:41] The silent crisis of glacial melt[13:28] Economic ripple effects of rising seas[15:53] What Larsen B's collapse taught us[20:04] Arête's model: Philanthropy + global research[22:51] Advancing glacier tech through TRL stages[25:45] How Antarctica is governed[35:28] Refreezing glaciers with thermo-siphons[45:00] Drilling costs vs. seawalls: Where's the value?Episode recorded on May 14, 2025 (Published on June 2, 2025) Enjoyed this episode?

Jamie Hartmann-Boyce and Nicola Lindson discuss emerging evidence in e-cigarette research and interview Steve Cook from the University of Michigan USA about the importance of correctly interpreting and assessing the available data. Associate Professor Jamie Hartmann-Boyce and Associate Professor Nicola Lindson discuss the new evidence in e-cigarette research and interview Dr Steven Cook from the Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health University of Michigan and the Centre for Assessment of Tobacco Regulations, University of Michigan. In the May podcast Steve Cook discusses the methodological problems of cross-sectional data on the health effects of e-cigarette use a topic he addressed at the May 2025 EC Summit, Washington DC. Steve Cook underlines why all cross-sectional health effects studies should be interpreted with extreme caution unless they examine dose-response relationships and account for temporality and cigarette smoking confounding. Dr Cook emphasises the importance of other information such as smoking histories and health histories and the importance of developing a best practice to ensure that we minimize the risks associated with spurious association and maximise predictive accuracy. Steven Cook receives National Institute for Health (NIH) and Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) funding. This is not deemed a conflict of interest.

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, Tyler Lesher, head athletic trainer for UCLA men's basketball, discusses the current state of athletic training in the US, the importance of gut health in recovery, and the challenges faced by athletic trainers. He emphasizes the need for a balance between research and clinical practice, the gut-brain connection, and practical interventions for improving gut health. Tyler also shares insights on assessing gut health and the significance of testing for athletes. Main talking points: • Athletic training jobs are declining due to various factors. • Gut health is crucial for overall recovery and performance. • Research can often be biased and not applicable to real-world scenarios. • Chronic inflammation can hinder recovery processes. • Fasting and cold water immersion can improve gut health. • The gut-brain axis significantly affects mental health. • Personalized testing is essential for understanding individual gut health. • Athletes should keep a food and symptom journal to identify triggers. • Interventions for gut health should be tailored to the individual. • Communication with athletes about nutrition is vital for their performance.

Episode 54 concludes a four-episode arc, within the Unit Supervision Pathway, that presents the 10 techniques that make up the Hierarchy of Interventions. This episode focuses on how to implement these interventions in a way that goes beyond surface behavior management to supporting the development of self-regulation in children and youth. This episode particularly focuses on the Forced-Choice and related Weighted-Choice techniques. These interventions leverage a program's consequence system to help child-clients make choices that determine whether or not they receive a consequence for any misbehaviors. That, in turn, supports the development of self-regulation over their own impluses and emotional-reasoning. These techniques are also a very effective way to help kids who struggle with taking responsibility for their own feelings, thoughts, and especially behaviors to mature. They are also excellent techniques for ending pointless control-battles between a staff person and a client. Centering Breaks are similar to Time Outs, however, they add structures to the time that move the intervention beyond simply removing a client from an over-stimulating or triggering situation. These structures are individualized to the needs and abilities of individual kids, but are strategically intended to help each child or youth become emotionally, cognitively, behaviorally, and physiologically centered. The Support Center structure and intervention is used by many multi-unit residential programs and schools to completely separate misbehaving kids from their peers. Typically, separate counselors staff the Support Center, providing a change of face as well as a Change-of-Environment. Ideally, Support Center counselors also Process the incidents that resulted in a child or youth being separated from the group. A structured approach to Processing is presented in prior podcast episodes. Physical Interventions, including physical restraint, are techniques used in residential treatment programs to safely de-escalate or contain extreme behaviors. Processing afterwards is key for moving these interventions beyond behavior management to supporting the development of self-regulation in kids.

BUFFALO, NY — May 23, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 4, on April 1, 2025, titled “Examining frailty phenotypes of community-dwelling older adults in Taiwan using the falls risk for older people in the community – Taiwan version (Tw-FROP-Com).” A research team led by first author Ya-Mei Tzeng and corresponding authors Yu-Tien Chang and Yaw-Wen Chang from the National Defense Medical Center studied older adults in Taiwan and found that unintentional weight loss is the most significant individual predictor of fall risk among the common signs of frailty. This finding highlights the importance of early detection and tailored interventions to reduce fall-related injuries among aging populations. Falls are a major cause of injury-related death in seniors, especially in low- and middle-income countries. In Taiwan, they rank as the second leading cause of accidental death among those aged 65 and older. The researchers evaluated five signs of frailty—weakness, slowness, exhaustion, low physical activity, and unintentional weight loss—using a locally adapted fall risk screening tool, Tw-FROP-Com. Frailty is a condition marked by reduced strength, stamina, and resilience, making older adults more vulnerable to accidents and illness. The study analyzed data from 375 older adults participating in a fall prevention program in Keelung City. Of these, 18.7% were classified as frail, and nearly one-third had experienced a fall in the past year. All five frailty signs were associated with increased fall risk, but statistical analysis showed that unintentional weight loss had the strongest association, even after adjusting for factors like age and previous falls. Rather than relying on a broad frailty label, this study found that analyzing each frailty feature individually provided more accurate predictions of fall risk. Weight loss, in particular, was also associated with conditions such as malnutrition, muscle decline, or chronic illness. “Treating frailty as five distinct components provided a more precise prediction of fall risk than using a dichotomous frailty measure (Yes/No).” The findings support the use of accessible screening tools like Tw-FROP-Com in everyday healthcare settings. Because it does not require complex equipment or physical testing, it can be widely applied to identify older adults at risk. Interventions such as nutritional support, physical activity, and weight monitoring can then be offered before a fall occurs. The researchers recommend that public health programs and healthcare providers focus on each specific frailty sign, especially unintentional weight loss, rather than relying only on overall frailty status. As the global population ages, targeted fall prevention strategies like these may help older adults live healthier, more independent lives.

As BCBAs, each day we walk a fine line between keeping children safe while ensuring our interventions are compassionate, ethical, and effective. Prioritizing safety in behavior management is a non-negotiable and it doesn't have to come at the expense of empathy. Here, we discuss the best ways to balance safety and compassion in our interventions and how to ensure that the individuals we serve are not only protected but also respected and empowered. When developing interventions, it's important to use the least intrusive, most effective strategies. We discuss how to build a foundation of trust and antecedent-based intervention as proactive strategies. We also cover the importance of regulation for both ourselves and our learners, how to determine whether corrective behavior is essential, and how to hold appropriate boundaries.Dr. Hanley's Universal Protocol is a great guideline to have when balancing safety and compassion.

A new MP3 sermon from VCY America is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The Harms of “Transgender” Interventions Subtitle: Crosstalk America Speaker: Jim Schneider Broadcaster: VCY America Event: Current Events Date: 5/12/2025 Length: 53 min.
Dr. Michael Artigues is president of the American College of Pediatricians. Dr. Artigues received his undergraduate degree in Biomedical Engineering from Tulane University in 1988 and medical degree from the University of Mississippi Medical School in 1992 where he also completed his pediatric residency in 1995. He practices general pediatrics in McComb, Mississippi. He has served as a board member and president of the local crisis pregnancy and child advocacy centers and has been a member of the American College of Pediatricians Board since 2014.Children across America have been identifying as transgender in what some have called, "epidemic proportions." In fact, it's almost become a status symbol to be viewed as transgender. Earlier this month, the Department of Health and Human Services released a ground-breaking report which confirms the lack of evidence supporting both the safety and efficacy of transgender interventions both in children and adolescents. This goes against the mantra that's been coming out from many public school systems, as well as the practices of Planned Parenthood and what we've been seeing from Hollywood. This is a many faceted issue that involves aspects such as gender dysphoria, gender affirming care, preferred pronouns, puberty blockers, emotional instability, the suicide factor and more. Review this broadcast and you'll hear these things discussed while listeners called with their opinions both pro and con.

This podcast was created using Notebook LM.Based on a new study, a recent article highlights the potential of non-pharmaceutical interventions for managing chronic pain, offering alternatives or complements to medication.
One in five people in Australia and New Zealand will experience chronic pain at some stage in their lives; and it's recognised as a major global health issue. Unrelieved pain can affect every area of a person's life with major social, financial and emotional consequences. Researchers at the University of New South Wales and Neuroscience Research Australia have done a randomised trial focusing on the experiences of people with chronic pain - and the role emotional processing plays in managing chronic pain conditions. Professor Lorimer Moseley is a professor of Clinical Neurosciences at the University of South Australia and the Chair of PainAdelaide. In this episode of Weekend One on One, he spoke with Peggy Giakoumelos on the role of psychology in chronic pain management.
Dr. Shannon McLaughlin-David discusses the complexities of cervical cancer, HPV, and the role of gynecologic oncology. The dialogue explores the emotional and clinical challenges faced by both patients and clinicians, emphasizing the importance of effective communication and empathy in patient care. The discussion also highlights the various types of gynecologic cancers, surgical interventions, and the difficult decisions patients must make regarding their treatment options. This conversation delves into the complexities of patient autonomy, the emotional challenges faced by oncologists, and the systemic incentives within healthcare that can impact patient care. The discussion also covers the evolution of cervical cancer screening guidelines, the role of HPV in cervical cancer, and the importance of patient advocacy and education regarding vaccination.Resources & Links:This episode was supported by the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) and features the PCORI research study here: https://www.google.com/url?q=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33632649/&sa=D&source=editors&ust=1746483503903350&usg=AOvVaw0SNo_jk-rzoVp85P5E3s6F ‘Effect of 2 Interventions on Cervical Cancer Screening Guideline Adherence'Chapter Codes00:00 Introduction to Cervical Cancer and HPV02:49 The Journey to Gynecologic Oncology05:57 Understanding Gynecologic Cancers09:05 Surgical Interventions in Gynecologic Oncology11:59 The Complexity of Patient Decisions15:07 Patient-Clinician Communication Challenges17:45 The Role of Empathy in Oncology21:05 Navigating Hormonal Treatments and Patient Reactions27:30 Navigating Patient Autonomy and Medical Ethics29:47 The Emotional Toll of Oncology33:00 Understanding the Healthcare System's Incentives35:58 The Role of Patient Advocacy39:05 The Evolution of Cervical Cancer Screening Guidelines51:46 HPV and Its Impact on Cervical Cancer54:48 Current Screening Protocols and HPV VaccinationConnect with Us:Enjoyed this episode?

He has run 10 marathons, with his latest being his fastest. Luke has experienced various running injuries, including hamstring tendinopathy. Hamstring tendinopathy can significantly impact daily life, not just athletic performance. The distinction between overuse and overload injuries is crucial in rehabilitation. Imaging is not always necessary for diagnosing tendinopathy. Hamstring tendinopathy is often under-researched compared to other tendon injuries. Daily activities, such as sitting, can exacerbate hamstring pain. A multifaceted approach is essential for effective rehabilitation. Strengthening exercises, particularly hamstring curls, are vital in recovery. Early hamstring rehabilitation focuses on building capacity and strength. Runners often lack strength training, impacting their recovery. Incorporating heavy lifting and compound movements is crucial. Plyometrics can enhance performance and aid in rehabilitation. Managing running frequency is essential for tendon recovery. Pain levels may not correlate directly with functional improvements. Capacity testing is vital for assessing recovery progress. Long-term recovery from tendinopathy can take over 12 months. Flare-ups during rehab are common and should be managed. Muscle and tendon adaptations should be targeted separately. Running technique significantly impacts proximal hamstring load. Trunk position and over-stride are critical factors in assessment. Flexibility in runners may not always correlate with performance. Rehabilitation strategies should focus on individual needs. Shockwave therapy has mixed results for tendinopathy treatment. Field sports present unique challenges in managing injuries. Distal hamstring tendinopathy is less common but still relevant. Metabolic conditions can trigger various tendinopathies. Continuous learning and adaptation are essential in rehabilitation. AI may play a future role in predicting running injuries.

Joining us this week on Diverse Thinking Different Learning is Dr. Megan Beardmore. Dr. Beardmore is a licensed school psychologist with expertise in assessing and treating children, adolescents, and young adults with neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism, ADHD, and learning disabilities, as well as co-occurring anxiety and depression. She received her training at the University of Arizona, completed a postdoctoral fellowship at The Help Group, and worked at UCLA's Center for Autism Research. She uses evidence-based therapies such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and breathwork to support emotional regulation and foster the mind-body connection. Dr. Beardmore returns from episode 119 to discuss what happens when traditional behavior strategies or even well-known talk therapies simply are not working and to explore what is really going on inside the bodies and brains of neurodivergent kids when emotions run high. Dr. Beardmore helps us unpack the science behind emotional dysregulation. With real-world examples, she breaks down how the autonomic nervous system shapes behavior and why interventions that start with the body rather than the brain can often reach kids when logic and language are not working. Hear how body-based techniques like exhaling, rocking, and self-hugging can offer immediate access to safety and regulation, with our bodies often recognizing safety or danger before our brains even catch up. Also, learn why telling an upset child to “calm down” rarely works. Perhaps most strikingly, Dr. Megan Beardmore shares how small, everyday movements and sensory experiences can help both kids and adults move out of stress and into deeper connection. It's not about elaborate plans or complicated therapies; it's about practical and easily accessible tools that speak the body's language. Whether you're a caregiver, educator, or clinician, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on supporting emotional regulation through science, empathy, and some surprisingly simple strategies. Show Notes: [0:07] - The nervous system greatly influences emotional regulation, especially in neurodivergent students, and Dr. Megan Beardmore joins us to address this. [3:15] - Dr. Beardmore explains that, like a seesaw, the autonomic nervous system seeks balance between stress response and calm. [6:50] - Recognizing behaviors as nervous system responses helps caregivers reframe them as unintentional and not defiant. [8:53] - Since 80% of signals travel body-to-brain, somatic techniques calm emotional overload effectively. [11:38] - Somatic tools, Dr. Beardmore explains, bypass logic, offering kids faster emotional regulation when reasoning is not accessible. [14:27] - Hear how deep breaths and movement-based strategies calm the nervous system by signaling safety. [17:53] - Parents can use these tools to regulate themselves and their child's nervous system during struggles. [18:32] - Learn how adults modeling self-regulation help children through mirror neurons. [19:39] - To emerge from a “freeze state,” movement, grounding, and heat gradually increase energy and activation. [22:48] - Accessible strategies that don't require fancy equipment help provide immediate support for nervous system regulation. [23:12] - Simple actions like humming or gargling stimulate the vagus nerve, improving nervous system regulation. [26:41] - Being mindful integrates body awareness and breathing to help manage stress, allowing thoughts to pass naturally. [29:49] - There are various tools which support nervous system health, tailored to body needs in different stress responses. [31:05] - Dr. Beardmore touches upon how curiosity around body responses assists with self-regulation. [34:26] - Asking “How do you feel?” can help kids connect strategies with emotional regulation. [36:22] - Dr. Beardmore argues that empowerment ultimately comes from regulating stress without external tools.
