Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram Nanney.Guest(s): Dr. Sue KresslyTopic: One of the biggest health successes that has occurred in our lifetime is the conquering of severe diseases like small pox, polio, diphtheria, tetanus, measles and others through the development of vaccines. Vaccinations have virtually eradicated many diseases. But recently, due to misleading claims and confusing information, vaccination rates have dropped. There has been the emergence of diseases that we have not seen in 40 years. Today we have Dr. Sue Kressley, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics help us understand why vaccines are the safest and best way to protect our children and ourselves.You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.If you enjoyed listening to this podcast, please consider contributing to MPB: https://donate.mpbfoundation.org/mspb/podcast Hosted on Acast.

Becoming a parent is often described as the happiest time in a person's life. But for many, it's also one of the most vulnerable. Behind the baby showers and birth announcements, there can be deep waves of anxiety, depression, isolation, and fear—feelings that deserve attention, compassion, and care. On today's show, we're shining a light on the mental and emotional well-being of mothers—before, during, and after pregnancyYou can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.

Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyTopic: A grateful public regarded doctors as health care heroes during the COVID 19 pandemic, and many were literally heroes, some of whom died caring for sick and dying patients. Yet here we are 5 years later finding that public trust in physicians is at an all time low. Why the decline? Why are people increasingly disregarding physician's advice and going to social media for, at best, anecdotal medical information? Today on Relatively Speaking we will tackle this to try to understand how to be an active and educated participant in your health care.You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.

Send us a textIn this episode, we are joined by Dr. Manasa Gunturu, a neurology-trained neuro-ophthalmologist and associate professor at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. We discuss the art of detailed history-taking and specialized examination skills, the evaluation of patients with subjective vision loss, double vision, visual field defects, and droopy eyelids – often after they've already seen multiple specialists without answers. We also explore the educational pathways to becoming a neuro-ophthalmologist and the surprising disparity between ophthalmology and neurology training requirements.With only about 600 practicing neuro-ophthalmologists in the United States and some states having just a single specialist, Dr. Gunturu makes a compelling case for why more neurologists should consider this rewarding subspecialty and shares resources for trainees looking to improve their neuro-ophthalmology skills.Dr. Gunturu also serves as Section Editor for the NOVEL NANOS Illustrated Curriculum, and they've been working hard to build a virtual education library!The annual NANOS (North American Neuro-Ophthalmology Society) conference is another fantastic opportunity for students and residents to get more involved in the field of neuro-ophthalmology.  Check out our website at www.theneurotransmitters.com to sign up for emails, classes, and quizzes!

Brain Energy and metabolism appear to play critical roles in the development and treatment of psychiatric disorders like bipolar disorder, depression, and schizophrenia. And emerging research suggests that our gene expression influences how our brain uses energy, thus linking the fields of genetics and metabolism.In this episode, Dr. Harry Pantazopoulos, Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, joins Dr. Bret Scher to discuss fascinating new research into the relationship between gene expression and metabolism in serious mental illness.Dr. Pantazopoulos' study reveals a fascinating insight: while metabolic dysfunction is a common feature of serious mental illnesses, each condition exhibits its own distinct patterns of altered gene expression that impacts metabolic function. This suggests that the underlying metabolic dysfunction in mental illness arises through different mechanisms unique to each disorder.In this interview you will learn: The benefits of studying metabolic function and gene expression of the amygdala Which genes show altered expression in each mental illness, and how these changes affect metabolism How shifting the brain's energy source from glucose to ketones could offer a promising way to address changes in metabolic gene expression How these study findings could translate to targeted clinical careAlthough these findings are not yet ready to directly influence clinical psychiatric care models, they provide a critical foundation for future research aimed at tailoring metabolic therapies to the unique needs of each individual.Expert Featured:Harry Pantazopoulos, MDLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harry-pantazopoulos-04460413/X: @HarryPantazopo1Studies Mentioned:Transcriptomic Analysis of the Amygdala in Subjects with Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder and Major Depressive Disorder Reveals Differentially Altered Metabolic PathwaysDifferentially Altered Metabolic Pathways in the Amygdala of Subjects with Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder and Major Depressive DisorderCMEs Mentioned:Managing Major Mental Illness with Dietary Change: The New Science of HopeBrain Energy: The Metabolic Theory of Mental IllnessFollow our channel for more information and education from Bret Scher, MD, FACC, including interviews with leading experts in Metabolic Psychiatry.Learn more about metabolic psychiatry and find helpful resources at https://metabolicmind.org/About us:Metabolic Mind is a non-profit initiative of Baszucki Group working to transform the study and treatment of mental disorders by exploring the connection between metabolism and brain health.
