In the spring of 1956, a doctor in the Japanese village of Minamata reported an outbreak of a troubling new disease. It was seen mainly among children, and it affected the central nervous system. The disease quickly spread, with hundreds of cases reported, then thousands. It took years for scientists to work out the cause: poisoning from industrial pollution in Minamata Bay—the first known case of a disease caused by polluted seawater.A chemical factory was pumping huge amounts of wastewater into the bay. The water was laced with mercury. Some of it was methylmercury—an especially nasty form.Microscopic organisms gobbled the stuff up, then were eaten by larger organisms. The amount of mercury built up to higher and higher levels with each link in the food chain. So the fish and shellfish eaten by people were filled with it. That triggered Minamata disease. Symptoms included numbness, problems with vision and hearing, trouble walking, and tremors. The disease killed hundreds, and may have afflicted millions. And its effects are still being felt.The company dredged the bay to remove contaminated sediments. And the nations of the world crafted a treaty to reduce the amount of methylmercury in the environment. It calls for less mercury in products and manufacturing, fewer emissions of it from coal-fired power plants, and better storage and disposal.Even so, mercury and other chemicals still cause problems as they work their way up the marine food chain.

Today, we go back many millennia in order to protect ourselves for the coming centuries: Emily Hart speaks to two Colombian scientists, Carlos Jaramillo and Camila Martínez, time-travellers of the smallest imaginable time machines: fossilised pollen and tree cells.    Climate change has been a constant feature of Planet Earth: at points in history, the planet has been both much cooler and much warmer than it is today - if we know which plants occupied an ecosystem the last time the Earth was a certain temperature or had a certain level of CO2 in the atmosphere, we can predict what our ecosystems will look like in the conditions that we will soon be living in.  Using tiny fossilised clues, Carlos and Camila are doing exactly this.  The climate change we are currently living through is unprecedented in speed – and water and rain cycles are a major concern for humanity's continued existence on the planet, so one focus of this work is the Amazon rainforest – both Colombia's slice of it and further afield.  Predictive models currently disagree about where the Amazon is headed as the earth warms – some models predict it will get wetter, others say it will become grasslands or scrub. One way to find out is to work out which plants lived in the area the last time conditions changed in the ways they are currently changing, and look at how that ecosystem and its inhabitants changed and adapted during that time.    Drilling deep into the earth to find fossil records from 12 million years ago, Carlos is now studying the fingerprints left by Amazonian life from that time – particularly pollen. Camila is studying fossilised trees, whose cells – frozen in time – can show us how much water was in the environment.     But pollen and other microscopic clues are in such abundance in places like Colombia that there simply isn't enough time in a human life to study and identify all of the species being found. Luckily, artificial intelligence is opening up huge possibilities – Carlos has been digitalising massive fossil collections and training AI to identify and catalogue samples.   So today, we travel from the microscopic fingerprints of a distant ecological past resting in rocks and trees deep underground through to the futuristic methods made possible by new machine learning and digital processing. Carlos and Camila span multiple disciplines and vast timeframes, all in the hopes of getting us the information we need to survive the climate crisis which will change the face of the planet within our lifetimes.   They'll be telling us how - and why it's so important.

The medical system is making you comfortably sick. Comfortable enough that your symptoms are manageable… Sick enough that you always need another prescription, another appointment, another “solution.”  It's a great system for the pharmaceutical industry, but for you not so much. It's not designed to heal you. It's designed to keep you in the system.  Not because doctors are out to get you, but because the system itself was built to reduce symptoms, not create health.And that's the frustrating part.  Because whilst medications can suppress your symptoms, they don't fix the problem.Which means you always need them to feel okay.You'll always be adjusting dosages, managing side effects and adding new prescriptions to the list.You'll always be one flare up away from another (often expensive) GI appointment. And the worst part?The cycle never ends. Until you step outside of it.Real healing doesn't come from managing symptoms. It comes from addressing the root cause. That is what Health Science does. It teaches you what's actually causing your symptoms, and how to *reverse* them, not just suppress them.  It teaches you how to actually heal your body, so you don't need medications, treatments, or specialists anymore.  That's why so many people we've worked with are now *completely* symptom free. No meds. No flares. No GI appointments (unless you count those who have gone back for tests, which have all confirmed that they are miraculously healed and the doctors are in shock, wondering how they did it).  But once you heal? You don't need the system anymore.If you're ready to stop managing symptoms and actually get rid of IBD for life, book a meeting. We'll show you exactly how: https://www.highcarbhealth.com/healthsurvey/

When a sea turtle hatches, it heads toward the light. Under natural conditions, that means the ocean. But if the beach is near a bright city, it might head inland, where it can be nabbed by a predator, hit by a car, or die of exhaustion. Baby turtles aren’t the only sea creatures affected by artificial light. Among its many impacts, the light can throw off the reproductive cycles of corals and others, make it harder for fish to hide from predators, and endanger beds of kelp by providing extra light for the urchins that feed on them. Much of the life in the oceans depends on the light of the Moon and stars – even at depths of hundreds of feet. But the glow of coastal cities, oil rigs, and passing ships can throw things out of whack. Corals, for example, time their spawning by the phases of the Moon. But artificial lights disrupt the timing, endangering coral reefs. Microscopic organisms move up and down in the water as the light changes to find food or avoid predators. But that cycle is disrupted by artificial lights as well. Depending on how clear the water is, the light can penetrate anywhere from a few feet to more than a hundred feet. And bluer light, which is produced by modern LEDs, goes deeper than redder light. Some coastal cities limit outdoor lightning, or build barricades to shield the beaches and the water close to shore – making life a little safer for baby sea turtles and other marine creatures.

Xmas Special: Keep Your Backlog Microscopic - The #NoBacklogs Revolution With Vasco Duarte In the fourth episode of the “5 Wishes for 2025” series, Vasco Duarte takes on a common yet overlooked productivity killer: the monster backlog. With humor, relatable analogies, and practical advice, Vasco shares how organizations can turn their overwhelming backlogs into powerful tools for focus and impact. The Backlog Problem: When More Becomes Too Much “Your backlog should be like your fridge, not your basement – keep only what you'll use soon, not what you might need someday!” Vasco opens by comparing bloated backlogs to storage boxes filled with old cables and chargers: seemingly useful but rarely touched. Sharing the story of Juha, a leader overwhelmed by a five-year backlog of epics, Vasco highlights how backlogs can grow out of control, becoming a source of stress rather than a tool for productivity. A #NoBacklogs Approach to Backlog Management “Your backlog should only contain work for the next 2-3 sprints. That's it!” Vasco introduces a game-changing rule of thumb: Short-Term Focus: Limit the backlog to items that can be completed within the next 2-3 sprints. Medium-Term Planning: Use a problem-centric roadmap to outline key issues to tackle in the next 6-9 months, and a technology strategy to align on longer term tech priorities (more on that in an upcoming episode) Long-Term Vision: Create a clear vision document to connect today's work to future goals. By managing backlogs with these three distinct timelines, teams can regain clarity and focus without sacrificing strategic alignment. The Problem-Centric Roadmap: A Tool for Clarity “Think of it as three zoom levels on your product map – focus on what you need today, tomorrow, and the distant future.” Vasco explains how a problem-centric roadmap helps teams prioritize medium-term goals by focusing on the most critical customer problems. Combined with a clear long-term vision, this roadmap empowers teams to align their efforts without being overwhelmed by irrelevant details. The Hidden Danger of Monster Backlogs “At conferences, I've met teams with 10-year-old backlog items – that's like keeping your Y2K plans ‘just in case'!” Vasco shares surprising stories of teams with decade-old backlog items. These “zombie tasks” highlight the need for a system to prevent backlogs from growing unchecked. Without proper management, backlogs can cause anxiety and hinder teams from delivering value. A Wish for 2025: Make Backlogs Short And Easy To Manage! “Let's turn our backlogs back into the focusing tools they were meant to be.” Vasco's fourth wish for 2025 is to see teams use backlogs as powerful prioritization tools, not bottomless pits of forgotten ideas. By embracing a short-term backlog, medium-term roadmap, and long-term vision, teams can stay focused, aligned, and productive. See It in Action: Global Agile Summit 2025 “Want to learn how real teams are taming their monster backlogs? Join us in Tallinn!” Vasco invites listeners to the Global Agile Summit 2025 in Tallinn, Estonia, where teams will share practical strategies for managing backlogs effectively.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Aaron M. Potretzke, M.D. Today, we're airing a popular episode from Season 2 of Mayo Clinic Talks!  Happy Holidays! Microscopic hematuria, and less commonly gross hematuria, are conditions commonly seen by the primary care provider. Malignancy is the most ominous cause of hematuria. Fortunately, other causes are much more likely. Since this is a relatively common health condition, when should we investigate hematuria and what should the evaluation consist of? How do we evaluate a patient's risk for urinary tract malignancy? Dr. Aaron Potretzke, a urologist at Mayo Clinic, joins us to discuss these questions. Connect with the Mayo Clinic's School of Continuous Professional Development online at https://ce.mayo.edu/ or on Twitter @MayoMedEd. 

I will discuss Effective Field Theories that can originate from microscopic unitary theories, and their relation to moment theory. I will show that massive gravity, theories with isolated massive higher-spin particles, and theories with very irrelevant interactions, don't posses healthy UV completions, and I will show how Vector Meson Dominance follows from such first principles.

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," defense attorney Bob Motta discusses the mistrial in the Karen Read case, emphasizing the difficulty of retrying the case due to the intense public scrutiny and the challenge of finding an impartial jury in Massachusetts. Motta highlights the problematic behavior of Trooper Proctor, whose early judgment and inappropriate comments could undermine the prosecution's case. The conversation touches on the crucial evidence, such as the microscopic tail light fragments found in the victim's clothing, and the importance of understanding the jury's decision-making process from the mistrial. Motta suggests that the defense might need to reconsider their strategy and potentially avoid a third-party culprit theory. He also reflects on the impact of the trial on the victim's family and the broader implications for the justice system. ### Main Points: - The Karen Read trial ended in a mistrial due to the jury's indecision and public scrutiny. - Finding an impartial jury for a retrial in Massachusetts is challenging. - Trooper Proctor's inappropriate comments and early judgment were highlighted as problematic. - Microscopic tail light fragments found in the victim's clothing remain a crucial point of contention. - Understanding the jury's decision-making process from the mistrial is essential for both sides. - The defense might need to reconsider their strategy and avoid a third-party culprit theory. - The impact of the trial on the victim's family and the broader implications for the justice system are noted. ### Relevant Hashtags: #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #BobMotta #DefenseDiaries #TrooperProctor #Mistrial #LegalStrategy Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

When your bulk tank volume takes a plunge through the last bout of heat, do you ever wonder exactly WHY? What is it in the udder that changes to cause the decline? Why do we also commonly see elevated SCC in our tanks too? To best understand the why, the Virgina Tech dairy team collected tissue samples from the mammary gland of cows in controlled environmental chambers. This month we invite Dr. Ben Corl to explain the cellular changes observed in the alveoli, epithelial and even immune cells of the mammary gland of cows undergoing a controlled heat stress challenge.   Additionally, he'll describe the changes in gene expression in those same tissue samples that controls protein production and mammary health.

This week we will discuss Bile acid malabsorption (BAM),  a gastrointestinal disease. It's a common cause of chronic diarrhea. When bile acids aren't properly absorbed in your intestines, they build up, upsetting the chemical balance inside. Excess bile acids trigger your colon to secrete extra water, leading to watery stools. ​ What are bile acids? Bile is a substance your liver makes while filtering your blood. Your liver sorts waste products, such as toxins, dead blood cells and excess cholesterol into bile. Bile acids come from synthesizing these products together. The different acids in bile help to stabilize the lipids in the mix and keep them in a liquid form. Your liver sends bile through your bile ducts to your small intestine to help with digestion. Bile acids in your small intestine help break down fats for absorption. When that work is done, they are supposed to be reabsorbed themselves, returning to your circulation and then your liver to be recycled into bile again. ​ What is malabsorption? Malabsorption is any failure of your intestines to absorb all of the chemicals they're meant to. Malabsorption can be a problem with your intestines themselves, or it may result from a chemical imbalance. For example, you may have too much or too little of a certain chemical for your intestines to absorb. ​ Who does bile acid malabsorption affect? BAM has been historically underdiagnosed due to a lack of accessible ways to test for it. But studies now show that at least 30% of those diagnosed with functional diarrhea disorders may have BAM. Functional disorders are those that have no apparent cause and are likely to go undetected during a medical examination, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). BAM is seen in people with conditions such as: Microscopic colitis. Crohn disease. HIV-related enteritis. Diarrhea that persists after a bacterial infection. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. It can also happen in people who receive certain medical treatments including: Surgical bypass or resection of the ileum, the last section of the small intestine. Gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy). Radiation therapy, especially in the abdominal-pelvic region. Chemotherapy. Metformin, a treatment for type 2 diabetes. ​ What are the symptoms of bile acid malabsorption? Typical symptoms include: Watery diarrhea. Frequent bowel movements. Painful stomach cramps. Urgency and difficulty holding bowel movements in. Some people also have: Abdominal bloating. Gas and gas pain. Steatorrhea (fatty stools.) Indigestion. Long-term symptoms can include: Dehydration. Fatigue. Headaches. Dizziness. Nausea. Weight gain. Weight loss. About half of people have constant symptoms, and the other half only report occasional symptoms. What causes bile acid diarrhea? The symptoms of bile acid malabsorption — primarily, bile acid diarrhea, or BAD — result from the buildup of bile acids in your colon, where food waste turns to poop. Normally, 95% of the bile acids in your small intestine are reabsorbed in the last segment (the ileum) before passing on to your colon. When too many are left over, however, they pass into your large intestine with the rest of the waste. Bile acids in your colon irritate the mucous lining, triggering it to secrete extra fluid and speeding up the muscle contractions that move poop along. This causes frequent, urgent diarrhea and cramping. What causes bile acid malabsorption? What causes bile acids to build up in your intestines is another question. Researchers have classified the possible causes of BAM into four different types. Sometimes they classify BAM as either primary or secondary. ​Primary BAM is caused by your liver overproducing bile acids (types 2 and 4.) ​Secondary BAM is caused by damage to your small intestine due to disease, surgery or radiation treatment (types 1 and 3.) Type 1 BAM is caused by a problem with your ileum itself. This is considered true malabsorption, because the problem begins at absorption stage of the bile acid cycle. You may have type 1 BAM if you've had the last part of your small intestine surgically removed, altered or bypassed to treat another condition. Certain diseases, such as Crohn's disease, and treatments such as radiation therapy can also damage the ileum. Significant damage impairs its ability to absorb. ​Type 2 BAM has sometimes been called “idiopathic,” which means that it happens spontaneously or for unknown reasons. However, current research suggests that it's a problem with the chemical signaling between your intestines and your liver. This signaling is what normally regulates your bile acid cycle (enterohepatic circulation.) Chemicals in your blood signal when your liver should produce and deliver more bile acids and when it's time to stop, reabsorb and recycle them. But with type 2 BAM, your liver doesn't get the memo to stop. So, it keeps sending bile acids — too many for your ileum to absorb. ​Type 3 BAM is caused by gastrointestinal diseases that can affect your ileum along with other parts of your digestive system. These include celiac disease, chronic pancreatitis and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). ​Type 4 BAM is caused by excessive bile acid production as a side effect of taking Metformin.

Microscopic hydras will trap and paralyze their prey. The next step usually is to stuff their mouths, only hydras usually don't have mouths.

In September of this year, routine testing turned up the presence of a microscopic parasite called cryptosporidium in Baltimore's water supply. Johns Hopkins environmental health scientist Natalie Exum returns to the podcast to speak with Lindsay Smith Rogers about what the parasite's presence means for the larger water system, and why it's critical to repair and replace aging infrastructure throughout the US. Note: This podcast was recorded in November. Since then, President Biden has proposed a new plan to remove all lead water pipes across the country.

Many dog owners have learned to recognize the telltale signs of an ear infection: whining, scratching, and head shaking are often the first symptoms of the problem. Ear infections are common conditions in dogs, especially those with floppy ears such as Basset Hounds and Cocker Spaniels. An estimated 20 percent of dogs have some form of ear disease, which may affect one or both ears. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to reduce the length and severity of these episodes for your dog. There are dog ear care products to help prevent issues from reoccurring. There are three types of ear infections, known formally as otitis externa, media, and interna. The most common is otitis externa, in which inflammation affects the layer of cells lining the external portion of the ear canal. Otitis media and interna refer to infections of the middle and inner ear canal, respectively. These infections often result from the spread of infection from the external ear. Otitis media and interna can be very serious and may result in deafness, facial paralysis, and vestibular signs. That's why it's important to prevent infections and seek early treatment when problems arise. Symptoms of Dog Ear Infections Some dogs show no symptoms of ear infection aside from a buildup of wax and discharge in the ear canal. But ear infections often cause significant discomfort and affected dogs may show signs such as: Head shaking Scratching at the affected ear Dark discharge Odor Redness and swelling of the ear canal Pain Itchiness Crusting or scabs in the ears What Causes Ear Infections in Dogs? The canine ear canal is more vertical than that of a human, forming an L-shape that tends to hold in fluid. This makes dogs more prone to ear infections. Ear infections are typically caused by bacteria, yeast, or a combination of both. In puppies, ear mites can also be a source of infection. Factors that may predispose your dog to ear infections include: Moisture, which can create a prime growing environment for bacteria and yeast Allergies, which lead to ear disease in about 50 percent of dogs with allergic skin disease and 80 percent of dogs with food sensitivities Endocrine disorders, such as thyroid disease Autoimmune disorders Wax buildup Foreign bodies Injury to the ear canal Excessive cleaning Precise Diagnosis Needed for a Dog's Ear Infections If your dog is showing any of the common signs of ear infections, it's important to consult with your veterinarian as soon as possible. Quick treatment is necessary not only for your dog's comfort (these conditions can be painful!), but also to prevent the spread of infection to the middle and inner ear. Don't try to treat ear infections at home. Be prepared to provide your vet with a thorough history of the problem. This is especially important for first-time infections, or if you are seeing a new veterinarian. Your vet will want to know the following: Duration of any symptoms, such as pain, swelling, discharge, and odor If your dog has any allergies or other underlying medical conditions If your dog is on medication What your dog has been eating How often you clean your dog's ears and which dog ear cleaning products you use If you've trimmed or plucked the hair in your dog's ears Recent activities, such as baths, grooming, or swimming If your dog has a history of ear infections, when they occurred, and how they were treated After obtaining your dog's history, your veterinarian will perform a physical examination. In severe cases, your vet may also recommend sedating your dog to facilitate examination deep within the ear canal. Your vet will evaluate both ears, and the exam may include: Visual assessment to look for signs such as redness, swelling, and discharge Examination with an otoscope, which allows evaluation of the ear canal and eardrum Gentle palpation of the ear to assess level of pain Microscopic examination of samples taken by swabbing the ear Culture of samples from the ear Biopsies or X-rays in severe or chronic cases How are Dog Ear Infections Treated? Your veterinarian will thoroughly clean your dog's ears using a medicated ear cleanser. Your vet may also prescribe your dog prescription ear drops for you to use at home. In severe cases of dog ear infections, your vet may prescribe oral antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications. Most uncomplicated ear infections resolve within 1–2 weeks, once appropriate treatment begins. But severe infections or those due to underlying conditions may take months to resolve, or may become chronic problems. In cases of severe chronic disease where other treatments have failed, your veterinarian may recommend surgery such as a Total Ear Canal Ablation (TECA). A TECA surgery removes the ear canal, thus removing the diseased tissue and preventing the recurrence of infection. It is important to follow your veterinarian's instructions closely and return to the veterinary hospital for any recommended recheck appointments. Lapses in your dog's treatment may lead to the recurrence of the infection. It is especially important that you finish the full course of your dog's medication, even if your dog appears to be getting better. Failure to finish the full course of treatment may lead to additional problems such as resistant infections. Can You Prevent Ear Infections in Dogs? As with most diseases, prevention is always best. Excess moisture is a common cause of ear infections, so be sure to thoroughly dry your dog's ears after swimming and bathing. Ask your veterinarian if a dog ear powder would be a good option for helping keep your dog's ears dry. If your dog is prone to chronic or recurrent ear infections, identifying and managing any underlying causes such as allergies can also help prevent new infections from occurring. Cleaning your dog's ears at home can also help prevent ear infections. Jeff Grognet, DVM, a columnist for AKC Family Dog, advises the following steps for ear cleaning: “First, fill the canal with a dog ear cleaning solution and massage the vertical ear canal from the outside. Wipe out the canal with absorbent gauze. Don't use paper towels or cotton because these may leave fibers behind, and those could cause irritation.” Cotton swabs may also be useful for cleaning your dog's pinnae (the external ear flaps) but avoid using them in the ear canal, which may inadvertently push debris deeper into the canal. You can also find dog ear cleaning wipes that are helpful for clearing away dirt and debris from the external ear flaps. Ear infections are a common and often recurrent problem in many dogs, but, with your veterinarian's help, you can keep your dog's ears clean and comfortable. If your dog is showing signs of an ear infection, always talk to your vet and seek treatment right away to ensure the problem does not become serious. Visit your local Veterinarian if you have any of these symptoms.
