Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions Impact of Menstrual Cycle and Menopause on Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain and introduction to a proposed new syndrome, the Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause.This episode delves into the connection between hormones, fibromyalgia, and other chronic pain conditions like migraines and endometriosis, emphasizing the significant impact of a woman's menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and menopause on chronic pain. Various studies and polls on symptom severity during different menstrual phases and post-menopause are discussed. The crucial role of estrogen in maintaining musculoskeletal health is elaborated, along with the negative consequences of estrogen decline, such as increased inflammation, bone loss, muscle weakness, and osteoarthritis. The episode also covers the benefits and risks of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in alleviating these issues, touching on the historical trends and evolving practices in HRT usage. A comprehensive approach to managing menopause-related symptoms, including nutrition, exercise, and personalized medical advice, is encouraged. The episode concludes by highlighting upcoming discussions on studies involving hormone therapy for fibromyalgia patients.00:00 Introduction to Fibromyalgia and Hormones00:20 Impact of Menstrual Cycle on Chronic Pain01:16 Fibromyalgia and Menopause01:27 Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause02:36 Estrogen's Role in Musculoskeletal Health06:39 Managing Sarcopenia and Muscle Loss08:41 Osteoporosis and Bone Health13:58 Hormone Replacement Therapy Trends17:15 Hormone Therapy Risks and Benefits26:06 Hormone Therapy and Mental Health28:32 Conclusion and Upcoming Topics Click here for the Fibromyalgia 101 link.Click here to connect with Joy Lenz. Support the showWhen I started this podcast—and the book that came before it—I had my patients in mind. Office visits are short, but understanding complex, often misunderstood conditions like fibromyalgia takes time. That's why I created this space: to offer education, validation, and hope. If you've been told fibromyalgia “isn't real” or that it's “all in your head,” know this—I see you. I believe you. You're not alone. This podcast aims to affirm your experience and explain the science behind it. Whether you live with fibromyalgia, care for someone who does, or are a healthcare professional looking to better support patients, you'll find trusted, evidence-based insights here, drawn from my 28+ years as an MD. Please remember to talk with your doctor about your symptoms and care. This content doesn't replace personal medical advice.* ...

Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine.  She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause.  Why is it that we so often find ourselves achey, sore, stiff all of the sudden in our forties?  This seems to get worse as we move through menopause - we lose muscle, bone density and flexibility.  It makes us think of our loved ones - the elder females who might have broken a hip, lack strength and thus, their independance.   Not on my watch, I say!  Listen in as I explain the Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause (the MSM).  The MSM looks like this:

Non-orthopedic causes of pain can present in an orthopedic urgent care or clinic setting and it's important to recognize when a patient needs to be referred to another provider. When it comes to the pelvis and the hip joint, what other things might present as musculoskeletal pain? Sam and Chuck discuss some experiences.

Glucose is the main source of energy for all forms of life, but it isn't usually stored as individual C6H12O6 molecules. Animals use glycogen to do that job. Glycogen is a large branched polymer of glucose molecules, linked together by α-1,4 and α-1,6 glycosidic bonds. The liver and muscles break down the stored glycogen whenever the body needs an extra boost of glucose. Glycogen storage diseases are genetic defects in glycogen metabolism resulting in accumulation of glycogen. What happens when macromolecules accumulate in cells? Cell damage and dysfunction. Because the liver and muscles are the two main organs that use glycogen, they are also the two most affected by glycogen storage diseases. In the liver, glycogen accumulation leads to hypoglycemia since the glycogen can't be broken down to glucose. Damage to the liver from extra glycogen can also lead to liver failure or even liver cancers. In the muscles, glycogen accumulation causes weakness, exercise intolerance, and potentially heart failure. There are at least 12 distinct glycogen storage diseases, but we'll cover only the 4 most common ones. After listening to this Audio Brick, you should be able to: Identify the most common glycogen storage diseases: von Gierke disease (type 1), Pompe disease (type 2), Cori disease (type 3), and McArdle disease (type 5). Identify the enzymes deficient in each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. Describe the clinical manifestations of each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. Describe management for each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. You can also check out the original brick from our Cellular and Molecular Biology collection, which is available for free.

We discuss the evaluation of and treatment options for acute back pain. Hosts: Benjamin Friedman, MD Brian Gilberti, MD https://media.blubrry.com/coreem/content.blubrry.com/coreem/Acute_Back_Pain.mp3 Download Leave a Comment Tags: Musculoskeletal, Orthopaedics Show Notes **Please fill out this quick survey to help us develop additional resources for our listeners: Core EM Survey** Clinical Evaluation: Primary Goal: Distinguish benign musculoskeletal pain from serious pathology. Red Flags: Look for indicators of spinal infection, spinal bleed, or space-occupying lesions (e.g., tumors, large herniated discs). Assessment: A thorough history and neurological exam (strength testing, gait) is essential. Additional Tools: Use bedside ultrasound for post-void residual assessment in suspected cauda equina syndrome Imaging Guidelines: Routine Imaging: Generally not indicated for young, healthy patients without red flags. ACEP Recommendations: Avoid lumbar X-rays in patients under 50 without risk factors, as they do not change management and may increase costs and ED time. Advanced Imaging: Reserve MRI for patients with red flags, neurological deficits, or suspected cauda equina syndrome; CRP may be a part of your calculus when evaluating for infectious causes of back pain Treatment Options: Evidence-Based First-Line: NSAIDs offer modest benefit.

Non-orthopedic causes of pain can present in an orthopedic urgent care or clinic setting and it's important to know what to include in your differential. When do you refer out or send to the Emergency Department? In Part 2, Sam and Chuck discuss pain symptoms from the low back to cervical spine.

Musculoskeletal embolization is generating significant excitement in the field of chronic pain management. In this episode, Dr. Jacob Fleming hosts a discussion with Dr. Yuji Okuno from Japan, a pioneer in both basic science and clinical practice within the field of musculoskeletal embolization. --- This podcast is supported by: Medtronic MVP https://www.medtronic.com/mvp --- SYNPOSIS The conversation delves into Dr. Okuno's groundbreaking work using embolization to treat chronic pain from conditions such as frozen shoulder, knee osteoarthritis, plantar fasciitis, and various sports injuries. Dr. Okuno discusses the development of new temporary embolic agents and compares different approaches to embolization treatments, including the innovative use of antibiotics as embolic material. The doctors also cover the intriguing concept of differential recanalization, where abnormal inflammatory vessels are less likely to recanalize than normal vessels after embolic treatment.

On each of these mini episodes, we chat about a new article or new surgical technique in the field of sports medicine. We'll give you our quick take on the most recent data and how this data will be impacting our practice.Today, we're talking about graft choice for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, and specifically how that impacts psychological readiness to return to play. Now, we've spoken extensively about ACL injury on this podcast.On our first ever episode with Dr. Mary Mulcahey was two-part segment all about ACL tears. Since then, we have gone on to discuss risks factors for ACL tears, ACL reconstruction, augmentation with lateral extra-articular tenodesis, revision ACL surgery and more! We also did an entire Game Plan episode on ACL graft choice and an Overtime episode “update” on ACL graft choice – the latter is episode #81 if you want to check it out.We also touched upon psychological readiness to return to play after ACL reconstruction in episode #16. Musculoskeletal injuries, in particular ACL injuries, can take a tremendous psychological toll on our athletes. Depression, a common experience for injured athletes, has been associated with worse patient- reported outcomes, higher levels of pain, and increased rates of postop complications.Unfortunately, caring for the mental side of the injured athlete remains a huge gap in our field of orthopedics and sports medicine. For this reason, Catherine and her colleague Emily Perrin created The Unbroken Athlete – a resource containing comprehensive mental and physical programs for athletes to enhance their recovery journey and performance. Catherine will speak a bit more about this during the episode.Our paper today is titled “Association Between Autograft Choice and Psychological Readiness to Return to Sport After ACL Reconstruction.” This level 3 retrospective cohort study was performed at the Mayo Clinic in Arizona. It sought to evaluate the relationship between an athlete psychological readiness to return to sport, as defined by the ACL-RSI score, and autograft choice – either quadriceps tendon, hamstring tendon or bone-patellar-tendon-bone.

Early in fetal development, the precursors of the major systems in the body are outlined. The three germ layers (endoderm, mesoderm, ectoderm) are formed during the third week of development. We'll focus on the ectoderm, from which the entire nervous system (central and peripheral) forms. But first, let's back up to review the anatomy of the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) so that we know what the end products of their development are. The CNS comprises the brain and spinal cord; the PNS is composed of the 31 pairs of spinal and 12 pairs of cranial nerves and all the ganglia. After listening to this AudioBrick, you should be able to: List the derivatives of ectoderm. Define neurulation and explain how it occurs, including closure and the dates of neuropore closure. Describe the origin, migration, and fate of neural crest cells, particularly those that form the peripheral nervous system. Explain how the neural tube is organized into three layers. Describe how the spinal cord develops from the neural tube, and describe the contributions of each to these layers to the structure of the mature spinal cord, with emphasis on the alar and basal plates. Describe the development of the brain, including the five brain vesicles, the brainstem, and the cerebral cortex.

Ballooning wait times, overworked and burnt out staff. No doubt you're only too familiar with the signs of a health system that's under serious strain. And not just since the Covid-19 pandemic. Simon Lafrance, physiotherapist and researcher from the University of Montreal, explains musculoskeletal care models that flip the traditional medical model of the doctor as the first contact point a patient has with the health system, to a musculoskeletal specialist, like a physical therapist, leading instead. Simon's clinical work and research work merge as he works to develop and evaluate advance practice physiotherapy models. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Trial of single vs. multiple sessions of advanced practice physiotherapy: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2024.12618

What are topical steroids? Often prescribed for chronic skin conditions, I'll bet you've probably used them at some point during your treatment.Sure, they work quickly, but are they without side effects? To answer that question, we need to talk about glucocorticoids, which are hormones naturally produced by the adrenal glands as part of the stress response.Topical steroids fall under the glucocorticoids category, and due to those who've experienced something called topical steroid withdrawal, some people are described by physicians as “steroid phobic.”While there are serious downsides, glucocorticoids can have some incredible anti-inflammatory effects on various health conditions. That's why it's crucial for us to have a nuanced conversation about this!Dr. Luis Franco joins me to discuss everything you've wanted to know about topical steroids, types of glucocorticoids, and concerns about side effects from using topical steroids.Dr. Luis Franco is a Tenure-Track Investigator at the National Institute of Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS). He was born in Colombia and grew up between Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, and the United States. He attended medical school in Colombia before returning to the United States, initially as a postdoctoral fellow at Duke University. Dr. Franco attended Baylor College of Medicine for specialty training in internal medicine and medical genetics. In 2014, he moved to the National Institute of Health (NIH).In This Episode:What are topical steroids versus glucocorticoids?Are topical steroids + glucocorticoids bad?Cortisone vs cortisol (and glucocorticoids examples by name)Side effects of glucocorticoidsWhat is topical steroid withdrawal?How glucocorticoids modulate your immune systemQuotes“Glucocorticoids exist naturally. They are hormones that are produced by our bodies. And they're produced by this very particular gland that's above our kidneys, that's called the adrenal gland or the suprarenal gland. And so our adrenal glands produce these chemicals called glucocorticoids. And those chemicals have many, many roles in biology and the one that is sort of best understood is that they are part of the stress response.”“I think the side effects that are important to know for topical glucocorticoids are one, something called skin atrophy, which is kind of a thinning of the skin that people notice when they've been applying glucocorticoids for a long time. Some people also notice little, kind of red, blood vessels that come up. These are called telangiectasias. These are like reddish blood vessels that become very visible on the skin of people who have used topical glucocorticoids.”LinksFind Dr. Franco onlineHealthy Skin Show ep. 344: NEW RESEARCH On Topical Steroid Withdrawal Symptoms + TSW Red Skin TriggerTopical Steroids Potency ChartImmune regulation by glucocorticoids can be linked to cell type–dependent transcriptional responsesGlucocorticoid-induced eosinopenia results from CXCR4-dependent bone marrow migration

Epithelium is one of the four basic tissue types (the other three are muscle tissue, nerve tissue, and connective tissue). It is found throughout the body—covering it; lining organs, vessels, and cavities; and forming glands. It absorbs nutrients, transports electrolytes, secretes hormones, and regulates body temperature by producing sweat. We begin with some general principles of how epithelial tissue is organized, and then we describe its various components. After listening to this AudioBrick, you should be able to: List the two types of epithelium (covering/lining and glandular) and describe their functions. Describe the structure and histologic features of epithelial tissue. Explain how covering/lining epithelium is classified. Describe the histologic features of glandular epithelium.

Tumor embolization is a versatile procedure that can provide symptomatic and long-term benefits for patients. In this episode of BackTable MSK, host Dr. Michael Barraza discusses musculoskeletal tumor embolizations with Dr. Gina Landinez from the Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute, where she is helping to grow the MSK interventions program. --- This podcast is supported by: Accountable Physician Advisors http://www.accountablephysicianadvisors.com/ --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Landinez explains that the main indications for embolization are preoperative tumor shrinkage and pain palliation. Embolization decreases hemorrhagic risk and procedure time during surgical resection and leads to better surgical margins. Pain palliation can also be achieved due to tumor size reduction and decreased pressure on surrounding nerves and tissue. Dr. Landinez explains that lesions well-suited embolization are hypervascular, large, not sensitive to radiation, and painful. She also describes the risks of off-target skin and muscle embolization and the importance of exercising caution with vertebral tumors. Finally, Dr. Landinez shares valuable practice-building tips about developing relationships with orthopedic surgeons and providing adequate follow up care. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 03:51 - Indications for Embolization 08:08 - Building Referral Networks 13:45 - Preoperative Planning 18:34 - Technical Aspects of Embolization 27:25 - Challenges and Considerations 31:23 - Importance of Outpatient Follow Up

Dr. Vonda Wright discusses the musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause and the importance of recognizing and addressing the symptoms. She emphasizes the need for doctors to listen to women's concerns and provide appropriate care. Dr. Wright also highlights the role of hormones in musculoskeletal health and the potential benefits of hormone replacement therapy. She advocates for a proactive approach to bone health and overall well-being, emphasizing the importance of mobility and exercise. Dr. Wright encourages women to be active participants in their healthcare and to advocate for themselves. Takeaways The musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause affects 70-80% of women in perimenopause and can manifest in various musculoskeletal symptoms. Women often face challenges in getting a proper diagnosis and treatment for their symptoms, with many being told that their symptoms are all in their head or simply a part of aging. Hormone replacement therapy can be effective in reducing symptoms and improving musculoskeletal health in menopausal women. Preventive measures, such as anti-inflammatory nutrition, building lean muscle mass, and maintaining mobility, can help support musculoskeletal health. Women should be active participants in their healthcare and advocate for themselves, seeking out doctors who are knowledgeable about menopause and its impact on musculoskeletal health. https://www.instagram.com/drvondawright/ Dr. Wright's Health Summit Read Dr. Wright's article here Thanks to our sponsor Sprout Pharmaceuticals.
