Jamie Hartmann-Boyce and Nicola Lindson discuss emerging evidence in e-cigarette research and interview Ryan Courtney from the University of New South Wales, Australia. Associate Professor Jamie Hartmann-Boyce and Associate Professor Nicola Lindson discuss the new evidence in e-cigarette research and interview Associate Professor Ryan Courtney from the National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia In the September podcast Ryan Courtney talks about his recent randomised controlled trial looking at vaporised nicotine products (VNP, e-cigarettes) compared to nicotine replacement therapy (gum/ lozenges) for smoking cessation among people experiencing social disadvantage. This study was funded by Australian National Health and Medical Research Council and included 1045 people at the start of the study with 866 people completing follow up. The verified 6-month continuous abstinence rate was 28.4% (148 of 522) in the e-cigarette group and 9.6% (50 of 523) in the NRT group. Their findings indicate that e-cigarettes are more effective than NRT for smoking cessation in this population. Given the challenges for cessation among these socially disadvantaged populations, the authors of the study consider that e-cigarettes present a promising treatment option for this priority group. This podcast is a companion to the electronic cigarettes Cochrane living systematic review and Interventions for quitting vaping review and shares the evidence from the monthly searches. Our searches for the EC for smoking cessation review carried out on 1st August and 1st September 2025 found four new studies (10.7326/ANNALS-24-03531 by Courtney et al discussed in this podcast; 10.1016/S2468-2667(25)00101-X; 10.1186/s12916-025-04167-y; 10.1016/j.ypmed.2025.108389). The searches found six papers linked studies included in the review (10.57187/s.4571; 10.1186/s13063-025-08954-z; 10.1111/add.70115; 10.1016/j.ypmed.2025.108353; 10.1016/j.drugalcdep.2025.112821; 10.3310/JHFR0841). Our search for our interventions for quitting vaping review carried out 1st August and 1st September 2025 found two new ongoing studies (NCT07040566; ISRCTN11383698), and one linked paper (10.1016/S2468-2667(25)00145-8).

In this episode of Bionic Planet, we delve into the pressing issue of climate change and its profound impact on coastal ecosystems, particularly focusing on blue carbon. We kick off the discussion by highlighting Indonesia's monumental decision to relocate its capital from Jakarta to Borneo due to the city sinking under the dual pressures of climate change and land subsidence. This serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need to address climate change, which is reshaping our world in ways that often go unnoticed. Our guest today is Dr. Steve Crooks, a leading expert in coastal ecosystems and blue carbon. He shares insights into the critical role that mangroves, salt marshes, and seagrasses play in mitigating climate change by sequestering carbon and acting as natural buffers against rising sea levels. We explore the unique characteristics of mangrove forests, which can sequester up to four times more carbon per hectare than traditional forests, and discuss the importance of preserving these ecosystems to combat climate change. Dr. Crooks also provides an overview of the blue carbon system, a term that has gained traction over the past decade. He explains how coastal ecosystems have historically been overlooked in climate discussions, with a predominant focus on terrestrial forests. However, recent developments, including the recognition of blue carbon in international climate agreements like the Paris Agreement, have opened new avenues for conservation and management. Throughout our conversation, we touch on various projects aimed at restoring and managing coastal ecosystems, including the Indus Delta Red Plus mangrove project in Pakistan, which aims to restore 350,000 hectares of degraded mangrove forest. Dr. Crooks emphasizes the importance of using verified methodologies to ensure the success of such initiatives, contrasting them with less rigorous tree-planting efforts that may not yield lasting benefits. As we navigate through the complexities of blue carbon, we also discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by marine protected areas and the potential for mariculture to contribute to carbon sequestration. Dr. Crooks highlights the need for integrated management strategies that consider both adaptation and mitigation in the face of climate change. In the second half of the episode, we take a virtual flyover of the Indus Delta project, where Dr. Crooks shares insights from his experiences and observations. We discuss the delicate balance between local livelihoods and environmental conservation, as well as the importance of community involvement in these initiatives. This episode serves as a call to action, urging listeners to recognize the significance of coastal ecosystems in the fight against climate change and to support efforts aimed at their preservation and restoration. Join us as we explore the interconnectedness of our planet's ecosystems and the vital role they play in creating a sustainable future.

In this episode of Mind The Kids, host Mark Tebbs speaks with Dr. Lucy Tully and Dr. Simon Rice about the development and impact of "Family Man," an innovative, online, father-inclusive parenting program designed to reduce child conduct problems. Findings can be found in ACAMH's  Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry – JCPP - ‘An online, father-inclusive parenting intervention for reducing child conduct problems: a randomised controlled trial of family man' https://doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.14068 Dr. Tully, a senior lecturer and clinical researcher, shares her passion for early intervention in child mental health and her commitment to making evidence-based parenting support accessible. She highlights a key gap in the field: most parenting programs are designed for and tested with mothers, leaving fathers underrepresented and under-engaged. The conversation explores the barriers fathers face in accessing traditional parenting programs—such as cost, work commitments, lack of awareness, and persistent gender stereotypes—and how Family Man was purpose-built to address these issues. Developed in partnership with the Movember Institute, Family Man is a brief, self-directed, animated program that uses humor and relatable scenarios to engage fathers (and mothers) in learning effective strategies for managing children's challenging behaviors. A randomized controlled trial found that parents who completed Family Man reported significant improvements in their child's conduct, parenting practices, and family wellbeing—benefits that were sustained over time and equally experienced by both mothers and fathers. The program's online, accessible format and father-focused branding were key to its success. Dr. Rice emphasizes the importance of policy changes to support father involvement, such as better paternity leave and organizational practices that actively engage dads. Both guests call for ongoing research, longer-term follow-up, and a cultural shift to make father engagement "core business" in child mental health. Listeners are encouraged to try Family Man for free, regardless of whether they have concerns about their child's behavior, and to share the resource widely. This episode is essential for parents, practitioners, and anyone interested in advancing inclusive, accessible, and effective support for families.

Whether it's a bump, a blow, or a moment of confusion, concussions in kids don't always look dramatic, but the impact can be significant. When parents start to worry and question what injury lies beneath the surface, pediatricians are typically the first phone call or visit. With evolving guidelines and pressure to clear kids for school and sports, what is the right call? In this episode, we will break down what every clinician should know about concussions including how to spot them, how to manage them and how to guide families through recovery with confidence. To understand the current status of concussions, we are joined by Kristina Wilson, MD. Dr. Wilson is the Medical Director of the Sports Medicine Center at Children's Hospital Colorado and is an Associate professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.

What is Reciprocal Imitation Training (RIT), and how can it support social communication skills? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Jessica Osos, BCBA, to explore the definition and application of RIT—a naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention (NDBI) designed to teach learners to imitate spontaneously through ongoing, play-based social interaction. Unlike structured drills, RIT is child-led and play-focused, helping to build social skills that go far beyond imitation.For many SLPs and BCBAs, this is a new approach. Dr. Osos explains how the back-and-forth of imitation highlights the value in what the child is doing and how strategies like Sports Casting (narrating the interaction) can enrich play. Expanding play might mean introducing more toys, exploring new play schemas, or creating deeper sequences.Key factors for successful RIT involve simple language, emphasizing important words, being repetitive, and expanding language by copying and adding. Focusing on goals beyond imitation? RIT doesn't have to be a “this or that” choice. This child-led expansive approach works with a variety of social communication, like joint attention and more! #autism #speechtherapy What's Inside:Naturalistic Intervention using Reciprocal Imitation Training.What is RIT?Expanding play for a variety of social, communication, and leisure skills. Mentioned In This Episode:Episode #146: Early Intervention and Project Impact with Anna Dvortcsak and Dr. Brook Ingersoll - ABA SpeechSpeech Membership - ABA Speech  ABA Speech: Home

Send us a textThe global markets are in constant motion, shaped by powerful forces that smart investors must navigate with precision. Today we dive deep into three critical market movers that are reshaping the business landscape and creating ripples across industries worldwide.Fresh sanctions targeting Iran's shipping and energy sectors signal that geopolitical risk remains a major factor in global markets. These measures don't just affect U.S.-Iran relations – they create complex ripple effects through supply chains, squeeze oil markets, and strain relationships with European and Asian trading partners. For business owners and investors, this serves as a powerful reminder to factor geopolitical tensions into strategic planning.Meanwhile, diesel prices are climbing in a rally that Bloomberg reports could extend well into fall, especially if the Fed implements anticipated rate cuts. Lower rates typically boost economic activity across freight transportation, construction, and manufacturing – all heavy diesel consumers. With already tight inventories and refinery bottlenecks, businesses face higher costs throughout supply chains. This perfect storm of economic conditions creates both challenges and opportunities for the strategic investor.We also examine a significant federal court ruling blocking troop deployment in California, which introduces new layers of uncertainty into one of the world's largest economies. Beyond the political implications, this legal development creates planning hurdles for businesses navigating California's complex regulatory landscape. The ruling highlights deeper questions about crime, homelessness, and government intervention in major cities – issues that directly impact real estate values, labor markets, and daily business operations.Join me on Instagram @EliteStrategist where I'm breaking down real-time deal flows, wealth-building tactics, and market plays we don't share anywhere else.

If there are few or no branching veins between the access and stenosis, thrombosis could occur   Etiology The most common etiology is venous stenosis caused by a history of vessel wall trauma by centrally-inserted venous devices such as tunneled and non-tunneled dialysis catheters, central lines, pacemakers, or defibrillator. In a study performed at a large academic medical center1, new hemodynamically significant central venous stenosis was associated with the duration of catheter dependence (26% in patients with CVCs for more than 6 months, versus 11% in patients with CVCs for less than 6 months). PICC lines can directly damage cephalic and basilic veins Venous stenosis can often go undetected until AV access creation occurs   Patient Presentation Symptoms of venous insufficiency will be present– most commonly regional edema, in the area of venous stenosis. If there are patent venous branches between the AV anastomosis and the stenotic area, swelling can occur throughout the arm. Pigmentation, induration, dermatosclerosis, and ulceration may also be observed. An extensive collateral network of veins may be visible throughout anterior chest, shoulder, or flank SVC obstruction can result in swelling of the head, neck and shoulders, as well as a feeling of head and neck fullness, airway compromise, and visual problems Normal palpable thrill can be replaced by a strong pulse Dialysis can be complicated by difficulty with needle access, recirculation syndrome, and arm swelling after dialysis sessions. Workup  Central vein thrombosis can be hard to detect on ultrasound because clavicle and sternum can block transmission Venography is essential to determine the presence and severity of venous stenosis or occlusion.   Prevention The ideal scenario is to avoid central dialysis catheters completely, and this involves evaluating CKD patients and placing AVF or AVG before the need for dialysis arises.  If a patient presents placement of an AVF/AVG, it is important to perform venography if a patient has a history of a central venous catheter or clinical signs of venous hypertension. A history of SVC obstruction from any cause can preclude permanent AV access creation in both upper extremities Treatment Endovascular approaches to venous outflow stenosis can be first-line treatment options, due to their minimal risk. They can also be performed at the same time as a diagnostic venogram. Angioplasty alone or with stenting are the endovascular options. In a study by Bakken et al2 that compared primary high-pressure balloon angioplasty versus stenting, primary patency was equivalent between groups, with 30-day rates of 76% for both groups and 12-month rates of 29% for angioplasty and 21% for stenting. Assisted primary patency was also equivalent with a 30-day patency rate of 81% and 12-month rate of 73% for the angioplasty group,  84% at 30 days, and 46% at 12 months for the stenting group. This study, along with others, shows that the major downside of endovascular interventions, whether angioplasty or stenting, often require repeat intervention and have poor long-term patency. For subclavian vein stenosis, angioplasty alone is appropriate due to its anatomical location that can put a stent at risk for extrinsic compression from the first rib and clavicle. Surgical bypass can be performed Possible bypasses include axillary-axillary, axillary-jugular, axillary-right atrial, and axillary-femoral. In these bypasses, the preferred conduits are autogenous saphenous or femoral veins. In cases where the proximal subclavian vein is obstructed, a jugular vein turndown can be performed. In this procedure the distal jugular vein is transected, sewed end-to-side at the distal subclavian vein, effectively acting as a bypass route for that obstructed segment. The Hemoaccess Reliable Outflow (HeRO) Vascular Access Device can be used as a hybrid approach, combining endovascular and open surgical techniques to bypass a central venous occlusion  and provide a reliable outflow for dialysis.  This device has a PTFE inflow limb that is sewn end-to-side onto the brachial artery. This limb is tunneled subcutaneously and connected to a silicone-coated nitinol outflow catheter that is inserted into a central vein and tracked directly into the right atrium. This effectively bypasses central venous stenoses. In the largest study to date on HeRO access grafts placed in 167 patients,3 HeRO primary and secondary patency was 48.8% and 90.8%, respectively, at 12 months. Interventions to maintain or re-establish patency were required in 71.3% of patients resulting in an intervention rate of 1.5/year. Access-related infections were reported in 4.3% patients. The authors concluded that HeRO device had performed comparably to standard AVGs and had proven superior to tunneled dialysis catheters in terms of patency, intervention, and infection rates. If no treatment options for venous hypertension or outflow obstruction  are available, an alternate AV access site can be created, either in the contralateral arm if the SVC is uninvolved, or through placement of femoral AV access or a peritoneal dialysis catheter.   Bleeding Access Site   Etiology and Risk Factors Bleeding can be caused by high venous pressure after dialysis, pseudoaneurysm rupture, or trauma. Patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) have a baseline elevated risk of bleeding due to uremia-induced platelet dysfunction and use of systemic anticoagulation within the hemodialysis circuit. Additional risk factors include dialysis through an AV graft, hypertension, longer duration of access use, and compromised integrity of the vascular access due to complications (clotting, infection) or invasive procedures. Dual antiplatelet therapy is also associated with overall bleeding events in ESRD patients. Dialysis patients could be on antiplatelet therapy for management of comorbid cardiovascular risk and/or patency of AV graft Patients with bleeding fistulas often present from their dialysis unit when standard digital pressure at the cannulation site fails to stop the bleeding. This is a very serious condition since most mature fistulas have high blood flow and the patients are at risk for hemorrhagic shock and death.    Initial Management  The first step of management is to obtain hemostasis. Elevate the limb above the level of the heart and apply firm and directed pressure at the site of bleeding using gauze for at least 30-40 minutes Milosevic et al4 reviewed non-operative management of bleeding fistulas and grafts and found that compared to standard dressings, the use of specialized hemostatic dressings decreased bleeding time at arterial and venous cannulation sites. These hemostatic materials included the IRIS compression bandage and cellulose-based, chitosan-based, poly-N-acetyl glucosamine-based, and thrombin-soaked dressings. There has been a “bottlecap method” described where the hollow side of a bottlecap is pressed on top of the puncture site. Maintaining pressure on the cap will cause the cap to fill with blood and clot, which tamponades the bleeding. The provider can also place a shallow figure-of-8 or purse string stitch just below the skin surface to aid in hemostasis. It is important to avoid placing the suture too deep as this can cause inadvertent fistula ligation. During this process, an assistant applies pressure just proximal and distal to the bleeding site to stop blood flow so the sutures can be placed. If these methods fail to achieve hemostasis, apply a tourniquet proximal to the fistula and tighten it until bleeding stops and the radial pulse is lost. This signifies complete occlusion of arterial inflow to the fistula. Tourniquet use should be limited to 3 hours or less, since limb ischemia beyond this timepoint is associated with permanent neuromuscular damage. Regardless of the method used for initial hemostasis, the patient is at risk for repeat hemorrhage, hematoma formation, vessel stenosis, and thrombosis. They should be evaluated by a vascular surgeon as soon as possible.  Definitive Management Definitive management depends on etiology of each case, and there are a variety of interventions that can be pursued (i.e. aneurysmorrhaphy for aneurysmal bleeding) If skin erosion over the conduit is present, it should be assumed that the AV access is infected and emergency intervention should be pursued. A jump graft can be placed through with healthy tissue.  A covered stent could be introduced through a separate percutaneous puncture site Finally, coagulopathy can be addressed by administering cryoprecipitate, DDAVP, erythropoietin, estrogen, tranexamic acid. Aneurysms and Pseudoaneurysms   Definition and Etiology Aneurysms involve all three layers of the vessel wall and they develop due to hemodynamic changes causing remodeling of the vein wall in an AV fistula. This is necessary for vein maturation, but becomes problematic if the post-anastomotic vein continues to dilate and becomes aneurysmal.  Aneurysms can also occur at anastomosis sites due to technical aspects of the surgery. Pseudoaneurysms only involve some layers of the vessel wall caused by repeated puncture for hemodialysis.  Both aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms can enlarge due to venous outflow stenosis causing increased intraluminal pressures. Both true aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms can lead to overlying skin erosion and subsequent hemorrhage, pain, AV access dysfunction, and cannulation difficulties.  Dialysis cannulation should be avoided at the aneurysmal sites to prevent bleeding complications. Diagnosis They can be diagnosed on ultrasound, which also provide information on flow rates, presence inflow/outflow/stenoses, and vessel diameters.  Indications for Treatment Treatment is indicated for aneurysms that are rapidly expanding or ulcerating through the skin surface. These are at high risk for rupture and hemorrhage, which is life-threatening. Treatment is also indicated when the aneurysm occurs at the anastomotic site of the AV fistula, the patient has a cosmetic concern, cannulation becomes difficult, there is concern for infection, or the patient has high-output heart failure that could be exacerbated by high flow through the fistula. Treatment is not indicated in asymptomatic aneurysms, regardless of their size. True  aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms are not prone to spontaneous rupture.   Treatment Options Aneurysmorrhaphy is the most common treatment. It involves the resection of the aneurysmal vein wall to restore a normal diameter and removal of excess skin. Anastomosis is performed along the lateral wall to prevent issues with cannulation along the suture line. Aneurysm resection with interposition grafting is also possible. If multiple aneurysmal segments require treatment, staging their repairs can allow for continuation of dialysis without needing to place a temporary dialysis catheter. AV access ligation is an appropriate alternative to AV access salvage in certain situations but usually requires excision of the aneurysm/pseudoaneurysm due to the potential to develop thrombophlebitis and the cosmetic appearance of the thrombosed segment. If there is concern for an infected pseudoaneurysm or aneurysm, surgery should include removal of all infected material. References   1. Al-Balas A, Almehmi A, Varma R, Al-Balas H, Allon M.

Louis Ruggiero grew up in New York City with privilege and connections — his mother, Rosanna Scotto, is a famous Fox News anchor, and his father is an attorney. But behind the perfect image, Louis was spiraling into addiction. College introduced him to Xanax, which quickly led to harder drugs, arrests, and trouble that was often swept away by his family's influence. His life took a shocking turn when a close friend confessed a murder to him, forcing Louis to testify in a high-profile trial. In this interview, Louis reveals his struggles with drugs, what it was like to be caught up in a murder case, and how he's working to turn his life around. #LouisRuggiero #RosannaScotto #AddictionRecovery #MurderTrial #DrugAddiction #NYCStories #TrueCrimePodcast #lockedinpodcast Connect with Louis Ruggiero: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NothingsOffTheTable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nothingsoffpod/?hl=en TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nothingsoffpod Website: https://linktr.ee/nothingsoffthetable Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 A Dark Confession and Introduction 00:52 Meet Lewis: Background and Podcast 02:26 Twelve Years of Chaos 03:03 Growing Up Privileged in New York 04:42 Life with a Famous Mother 06:26 Spotlight Pressure and Acting Out 08:18 Rebellion and Early Signs 10:24 Parents' Presence and Family Dynamics 11:37 The Straight-Laced Sister 12:29 Making Amends and Lifelong Change 13:10 Hazy Future Plans and Pressure 14:31 High School Troubles and Africa Experience 16:03 Xanax: The Real Start of Addiction 17:56 Family History and the Addictive Personality 18:33 Barstar: College, Drugs, and Escalation 19:23 Interventions and Denial 20:54 Deceit, Probation, and Court-Ordered Programs 23:18 A Violent Encounter and New Addictions 24:22 Losing Friends and Facing the Law 26:06 White Privilege and Justice 27:41 Revolving Door of Addiction and Jail 28:58 Relapse and Deeper Descent 30:32 Confession of a Murder 35:01 After the Confession: Investigation and Fallout 39:05 Rock Bottom and Family Intervention 41:03 Rehab, FBI Subpoena, and Trial 44:52 Testifying in a Murder Case 47:56 Staying Sober Through Chaos 48:55 Falling Back and the Battle for Sobriety 49:54 Daily Recovery Work and Lasting Change 51:01 Living Amends and Generational Healing 54:05 Enabling, Gambling, and Hard Lessons 57:04 Gambling: Vegas, Apps, and Addiction 01:00:32 Reflection: Parental Trust and Actions 01:03:32 Integrity, Character, and Redemption 01:05:00 Advice to My Younger Self 01:05:16 Wrapping Up and Looking Ahead Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

Discover how eschatology drives discipleship and what it means to live with the expectation of the Messiah's imminent return. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that challenges our understanding of prophecy and the times we live in.

Much of Angela Washko's work begins with a simple question: What if we took the media we consume every day — the video games, the reality shows, the online chatrooms — as seriously as we take traditional art spaces? What if we examined them not just as distractions or products but as public arenas where identity, power and belonging are actively negotiated?With a practice that spans performance, social engagement, video games and film, Angela has spent more than a decade doing just that. Her work doesn't just critique digital culture from the outside; it embeds itself within it, creating space for dialogue in places not usually known for nuance. Whether she's convening feminist councils in the fantasy worlds of online gaming or crafting interactive experiences from the textures of real life, her projects ask how we behave when no one — or everyone — is watching. In 2012 she launched The Council on Gender Sensitivity and Behavioral Awareness in World of Warcraft, an in-game social practice project that sparked multi-hour dialogues between initially hostile players. Later she created The Game: The Game, an RPG in which a player could try to negotiate a bar packed full of male pickup artists following the same seduction playbook. And just last year, fascinated by the allure and promises of reality television, she directed her first documentary, “Workhorse Queen,” about a few members of the tightknit drag community in Rochester, NY and their complicated relationship with “RuPaul's Drag Race” and the commerce of 21st century drag celebrity.In this interview, Angela, now a full professor and the MFA Program Director at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan, reflects on how she found her voice as an artist inside a male-dominated gaming culture, why she continues to work in and not against the media she critiques and how becoming a mother during a global crisis reshaped her ideas of creativity, care and time.https://angelawashko.com/home.html

Happy Wednesday, Women of Strength! Today we are joined by our friend, Nichole, from Nevada who shares her SEVEN birth stories. Nichole has had a wild ride when it comes to birth. Every story is so different and so unique. This episode is jam-packed with things like placental abruption, NICU time, preeclampsia, a surprise HBA2C, induced VBA2C, changing providers, and two VBA3C stories. Her last birth, a 2VBA3C, sparks an important conversation about how interventions can sometimes be a necessary part of a successful VBAC. Knowing the general pros and cons of interventions is just the first step. We all then have to apply what we've learned to our specific situations, adapt, and do what feels best to us!Needed Website: Code VBAC20 for 20% OffCoterie Diapers - Use code VBAC20 for 20% OffThe Ultimate VBAC Prep Course for ParentsOnline VBAC Doula TrainingSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-vbac-link/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

In this episode, Eric traces his scientific journey from studying viruses and histone deacetylases (HDACs) to leading aging research at the Buck Institute, offering insights into how aging impairs immune and nervous system function—including thymic shrinkage, chronic inflammation, and reduced vaccine response—and how these changes impact lifespan. He explores the metabolic underpinnings of aging, such as oxidative stress and insulin and IGF-1 signaling, and he discusses practical tools like zone 2 cardio, ketogenic diets, and GLP-1 drugs. The conversation also covers declining NAD levels with age, the roles of NAD-consuming enzymes such as sirtuins and CD38, and what current NAD-boosting strategies (like NMN, NR, and IV NAD) can and can't accomplish. Eric weighs in on promising longevity interventions including rapamycin, growth hormone for thymic regeneration, and anti-inflammatory therapies, while also examining the promise and limitations of current biological age tests and the potential of combining epigenetic, proteomic, and organ-specific metrics with wearables to guide personalized longevity care. We discuss: Eric's scientific journey from virology to the field of geroscience [2:45]; How dysfunction in the immune system and central nervous system can drive aging throughout the body [5:00]; The role of metabolism and oxidative stress in aging, and why antioxidant strategies have failed to deliver clear benefits [8:45]; Other aspects of metabolism linked to aging: mitochondrial efficiency, fuel utilization, and glucose-modulating drugs [16:30]; How inefficient glucose metabolism drives insulin, IGF-1 signaling, and accelerates aging [21:45]; The metabolic effects of GLP-1 agonists, and the need to move beyond crude metrics like BMI in favor of more precise assessments of metabolic health [27:00]; The case for immune health as a “fifth horseman” [36:00]; How the innate and adaptive immune systems work together to build immune memory [39:45]; Why vaccines lose effectiveness with age: shrinking of the thymus gland and diminished T-cell diversity [44:15]; Exploring growth hormone, thymic regeneration, and the role of exercise in slowing immune aging [48:45]; The challenges of identifying reliable biomarkers for immune function, and the potential of rapamycin analogs to enhance vaccine response in older adults [57:45]; How rapamycin's effects on the immune system vary dramatically by dosage and frequency [1:03:30]; The limitations of mouse models in aging research and the need for cautious interpretation of rapamycin's benefits in humans [1:08:15]; NAD, sirtuins, and aging: scientific promise amid commercial hype [1:15:45]; How CD38 drives age-related NAD decline, influences immune function, and may impact longevity [1:23:45]; How NMN and NR supplementation interact with CD38 and NAD metabolism, and potential risks like homocysteine elevation and one-carbon cycle depletion [1:31:00]; Intravenous NAD: limited evidence and serious risks [1:37:00]; Interleukin-11 (IL-11) as a new target in immune aging, the dual role of chronic inflammation in aging, and the need for better biomarkers to guide interventions [1:43:00]; Biological aging clocks: types of clocks, promise, major limitations, and future outlook [1:48:30]; The potential of proteomics-based aging clocks for detecting organ-specific decline and frailty [2:00:45]; and More.
