The episode features Dr. David Bartlett, a retired GP and neuroendocrine cancer patient, offering a dual perspective as both clinician and patient.Key Learnings from this episode.Patient Experience and Diagnostic ChallengesDr. Bartlett's symptoms began with severe, intermittent abdominal pain, starting in 2001, but he did not seek medical help for several years due to a combination of stoicism, not wanting to trouble others, and a belief in the commonality of benign causes. Over 15 years, he experienced repeated misdiagnoses, primarily being labeled as having irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) despite atypical features (severe pain, minimal bowel habit change, and no systemic symptoms). Multiple opinions and investigations (including ultrasounds and CT scans) failed to identify the underlying cause, with a key scan being misread by local radiologists. The correct diagnosis of a small bowel neuroendocrine tumour was only made after a tertiary centre re-examined previous scans, highlighting the importance of specialist review and persistence in unexplained cases.Clinical Red Flags and SymptomatologyDr. Bartlett's case underscores that neuroendocrine tumors can present with isolated, severe abdominal pain without classic red flags (vomiting, weight loss, significant bowel changes)[1]. He retrospectively identified subtle signs of carcinoid syndrome (flushing, one episode of profound diarrhoea, and skin changes), which are present in only about 10% of small bowel neuroendocrine tumour cases. The lack of awareness about neuroendocrine tumors, even among experienced clinicians, contributed to the diagnostic delay[1].Lessons for Primary Care and CliniciansThe story illustrates the risk of anchoring on common diagnoses (like IBS) and the need to reconsider the diagnosis when symptoms are severe, persistent, or atypical. It highlights the value of listening to the patient's narrative, especially when symptoms do not fit classic patterns, and the importance of considering rare conditions in the differential diagnosis. The episode emphasises the need for ongoing education about neuroendocrine tumours and the importance of keeping rare but serious conditions on the diagnostic radar in primary care.Management InsightsStandard treatment for small bowel neuroendocrine tumours often includes monthly somatostatin analog injections (e.g., lanreotide). Surgical intervention may be considered, but it carries specific risks such as carcinoid crisis, requiring specialised perioperative management. The decision for surgery is individualised, weighing potential symptomatic improvement against procedural risks.Systemic and Human FactorsDr. Bartlett's experience reflects how personal traits (stoicism, reluctance to seek help) and systemic issues (misinterpretation of scans, diagnostic inertia) can delay diagnosis. The narrative also demonstrates the importance of patient advocacy, persistence, and the value of second (or third) opinions, especially in complex or unresolved cases.Educational ValueThe episode serves as a reminder for clinicians to maintain a broad differential, revisit diagnoses when the clinical picture changes, and to be aware of their own cognitive biases. It also advocates for the inclusion of patient voices in medical education to better understand the lived experience and challenges of rare diseases like neuroendocrine cancer.Summary Table: Key LearningsThemeKey PointsDiagnostic Delay15 years from symptom onset t...

ABOUT THIS EPISODEWhat is radiation oncology, and how is it used for neuroendocrine cancer? UCSF radiation oncologists Dr. Will Chen and Dr. Alexandra Hotca-Cho describe external radiation therapy (SBRT) and how, when, and where it may be used for select patients with neuroendocrine cancers. They address common concerns about the planning process, safety concerns, and treatment sequencing.TOP TEN QUESTIONS ABOUT EXTERNAL RADIATION THERAPY FOR NEUROENDOCRINE CANCERS:1. What is radiation oncology? How does it work? How is it different from other types of radiation?2. What are the types of radiation therapies used for neuroendocrine cancer? 3. Which neuroendocrine cancers are they used for, and when are they used? How do you decide who is a good candidate and if it will be effective?Where in the body can SBRT be used? (bone, liver, pancreas, rectal?) Where can it not be used in the body, and when is SBRT NOT used?Is there a number or size limit of the tumor(s)?4. For Bone: How do NETs affect the bones? Are they “on” or “in” the bone, and does the tumor tend to weaken it?If given to the bone, does SBRT weaken the bone? What are the chances of fracture with radiation to the bone? Does it matter which area of the bone/body is treated? What other factors influence fracture risk? (age, dose, number of treatments)? Should patients have a bone density scan before SBRT?If bone lesions are causing pain, how soon after treatment might a patient expect to have pain alleviated?How common is increased pain after treatment to the bone? What causes that?5. Safety: How much radiation is given with these procedures? Is there a concern about radiation safety following the procedures? (Do patients need to avoid others in the hours or days after the treatment?)Is there a lifetime limit to the amount of radiation one can receive, especially considering surveillance CT & PET scans?How often can these procedures be repeated? Does it damage other tissues or organs? How common are secondary cancers? What types and how treatable are they?Is there a risk with fertility?What other risks are there?6. How do these therapies compare to PRRT or radioembolization in terms of safety? If someone has had PRRT or radioembolization, can they also receive radiation therapy to the liver or bones? Is there increased risks if someone has had PRRT, radioembolization or CAPTEM or alkylating agents? 7. Is there an optimal sequence for treatments? 8. What is SBRT like for patients? What is the planning and preparation process? How do you determine how many treatments and what dose to give?9. What does the patient experience during and after the procedure? Does it hurt? What are the side effects? How much time do I need to take off of work? 10. How effective is SBRT in terms of managing symptoms? How effective is SBRT in controlling or destroying the tumor?  How do you know if the treatment “worked”?Bonus: What is the future of radiation therapy in neuroendocrine cancer treatment?For more information, visit LACNETS.org.

Menstruation, pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, motherhood, menopause… let's do this.In today's episode Jessica and Madeleine demystify the neuroendocrine system, and explain the interconnectedness of a woman's hormones and her nervous system throughout the various stages of her life.Weaving neuroscience research together with our own personal experiences, the conversation delves into the female menstrual cycle and its influence on the brain and nervous system. We also discuss the hormonal changes that take place during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as well as the social factors that can make the early months of parenthood so challenging, especially when returning to work.We explore many facets of childbirth including the importance of birth education, the experience of pain, the different states of the nervous system at play, spiritual perspectives, and the importance of the mother-baby dyad.Until recently there's been very little research into the brain changes that occur during menopause. We discuss the emerging research and some methods to better understand, validate and support women's experiences during this important rite of passage. Takeaways•The female brain is dynamic, and there is a need for a shift in perspective on women's health and well-being, recognizing the interconnectedness of the neuroendocrine system•The female menstrual cycle has a significant impact on the female nervous system, with fluctuating hormones influencing brain function and behavior.•Returning to work after maternity leave can be challenging for women, as hormonal changes and fatigue can affect cognitive function and memory.•During pregnancy and birth, the body undergoes profound hormonal changes that support the bonding process between mother and baby. Touch and connection are crucial for babies' healthy development, particularly in the areas of attachment and regulation.•The social factors impacting parenting have changed, with many women lacking the support of extended family and facing the challenges of balancing work and parenting.•Postpartum hormonal changes can both have a significant impact on women's well-being, and it is important to recognize and support women during this time.•Menopause is a significant transition that affects the neuroendocrine system, and it is important to understand and support women during this phase of life.•The biopsychosocial model of health provides a framework for understanding the biological, psychological, and social factors that influence women's health.•The conversation around women's health is evolving, and there is a growing recognition of the importance of addressing the unique needs and challenges faced by women.If you'd like to learn more about cultivating interoceptive accuracy to support yourself through times of change and transition, head to nervoussystemschool.com/female to access your free worksheet.If you enjoy our work, we'd love it if you could take a minute to follow us wherever you get your podcasts, and leave a rating and review.

Neuroendocrine Tumours could be described as an impassable obstacle, more complicated the more you research.

Michael provides a brilliant overview of this well-differentiated cohort and the lack of efficacy platinum chemotherapies have, while Josh discusses CAPTEM (temozolomide and capecitabine) through a systematic review. Interestingly many of the current data is retrospectively collected, highlighting how challenging it is to collect enough patients to pursue meaningful research.Note- there is a quote from Lance Armstrong, who was stripped of his titles due to illegal doping (which we do not endorse); he did start the Livestrong Foundation to support those affected by cancer.Links to studies discussed in this episode (subscription may be required):1.

"We go to the moon and other places not because they are easy, but because they are hard." So spoke US President John F. Kennedy, in a speech that galvanised the American public and fostered widespread support for the space race and the Apollo space program that would culminate in Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landing on the Moon on July 20, 1969. A similar approach must be taken to the treatment of neuroendocrine tumours, a rare and difficult-to-treat cancer type requiring inventiveness, preparation and lateral thinking (almost) on the level of the Apollo and Soyuz astronauts.Last week, Michael and Josh discussed the front-line treatment of low-grade, well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumours.

Neuroendocrine tumours (commonly referred to as NETs) is the topic for this week's episode of Oncology for the Inquisitive Mind. Michael and Josh thought it could be easily covered in a single episode, but they were wrong. This is not dissimilar to the recurrent cancellation of Futurama, a television series with nine lives saved by every network in existence.Neuroendocrine tumours are a diverse, heterogeneous, rare group of cancers that can occur throughout the body. The most common location is the gastrointestinal tract, lung, and pancreas. Of course, these aren't the only locations with NETs forming in the thymus, prostate, breast and skin. To complicate things further, the classification of NETs has changed multiple times over the past two decades.This first episode of our four-part "tour de force" will summarise well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumours and the pivotal studies of lanreotide and PRRT (peptide receptor radionucleotide therapy) with lutetium dotatate.Links to studies discussed in this episode (subscription may be required):1.

Get ready to take notes!  Tip 1: B9 Vitamin Intake^1,2^ Vitamin B9 plays a crucial role in the synthesis of serotonin and dopamine, the neurotransmitters that regulate mood^1^. It's associated with psychiatric symptoms, and its neuroprotective benefits are lost when patients lack a specific genetic enzyme, which converts folate/folic acid to its most usable form, L-methylfolate. This allows for the synthesis of the three major neurochemicals-serotonin, nor-epinephrine, and dopamine-across the blood-brain barrier^2^.  Studies:  1.

The Senescence-Associated Secretory Phenotype Induces Neuroendocrine Transdifferentiation

A new editorial paper was published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 8, entitled, “The senescence-associated secretory phenotype induces neuroendocrine transdifferentiation.” In this editorial, researchers Anda Huna, Nadine Martin and David Bernard from the Université de Lyon discuss the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP, in addition to stable proliferation arrest, is one of the most remarkable characteristics of senescent cells. Indeed, these cells secrete a variety of factors including cytokines, growth factors and matrix metalloproteases among others. In response to stress, through their SASP, senescent cells are able to modify and instruct their microenvironment. “The SASP is known to have several, sometimes contradictory, effects on phenotypes, including the induction or reinforcement of senescence in neighboring cells, promotion or inhibition of stemness, modification of extracellular matrix, activation or inhibition of immune responses and induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition and cell migration.” Although cellular senescence and its SASP can initially display some beneficial effects, for instance favoring wound healing or blocking tumor initiation, accumulation of senescent cells and their secretome during aging or chronic stresses (tobacco, obesity, alcohol among others) plays a significant role in promoting aging-associated features and pathologies, like fibrosis, steatosis, chronic inflammation or cancer. In the context of cancer, senescence initially has an antitumoral role, as it promotes proliferation arrest and favors an anti-tumoral immune surveillance in response to oncogenic stress or DNA damage accumulation. However, SASP plays a dual role in tumor initiation and progression, as it first has a tumor suppressive action by reinforcing senescence in neighboring cells and recruiting immune cells, but also plays a tumor promoting role by promoting stemness, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and cell migration and by inhibiting immune responses. “Overall our work reveals a new effect of senescent cells and their SASP in tumors and offers new insights into NED [neuroendocrine transdifferentiation] in breast and prostate cancer biology. It also provides a new vision of the contribution of senescent cells and their SASP to aging-related pathologies, which could involve NED induction in some contexts.” DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.204669 Corresponding author - David Bernard - david.bernard@lyon.unicancer.fr Sign up for free Altmetric alerts about this article - https://aging.altmetric.com/details/email_updates?id=10.18632%2Faging.204669 Subscribe for free publication alerts from Aging - https://www.aging-us.com/subscribe-to-toc-alerts Keywords - aging, cellular senescence, aging, cancer, NF-κB, calcium signaling About Aging-US Launched in 2009, Aging-US publishes papers of general interest and biological significance in all fields of aging research and age-related diseases, including cancer—and now, with a special focus on COVID-19 vulnerability as an age-dependent syndrome.

#132 Grief and Stress with Dr. Doni

How Humans Heal

In today's podcast we talk about stress related to grief. One of the greatest stresses that we experience as humans and that is the loss of a loved one. Loss, stress and grief can also be related to the end of a relationship for example because of a divorce or a breakup or even the end of a friendship. It could be related to the loss of a job, needing to move homes or the loss of a pet.   The stages of grief are not necessarily linear; we can even go through all of them in a day.   We may feel denial, being in shock, anger, guilt and fear. We may also experience depression and sadness.    It's also important to allow ourselves to experience grief the way that it happens for each of us individually.   I want to share with you more about the research related to how loss and grief create stress on our bodies. In a study from 2012 they found there is definitely a change in our cortisol and adrenaline levels when we experience loss.1   One of the areas that I have been researching for over 20 years is measuring cortisol and adrenaline levels in myself and my patients and understanding how we are all unique in terms of how our cortisol and adrenaline shifts when we're under stress.   I find it very interesting that the studies on loss and death of a loved one showed that it's more common for cortisol and adrenaline to be elevated in the first two weeks to six months after the loss. A year after the loss, if people continue to have symptoms of grief, they are more likely to have low cortisol levels.    It's really important to know how your body is responding because then we can do something about it and recover. We can start regulating our adrenaline and cortisol levels so this doesn't become a long term or permanent issue.    We can work to reset the HPA Axis (hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis) to tell our bodies to produce more or less cortisol and adrenaline and regulate our stress response.   Studies also show that when a person experiences loss, it can increase the likelihood of experiencing anxiety and depression. Also, our immune system can be affected, and we can experience higher levels of inflammation in the body.2   Many other health problems can develop when under high stress, such as insomnia, heart attacks, strokes, cancer, increased susceptibility to viruses, such as HPV, and other infections. There is even a condition known as broken heart syndrome, or Takotsubo, when the heart muscle is weakened from grief and severe stress.3   When we're in a grieving process that has disrupted our neuroendocrine (nervous system and hormones) is when we need to have our cortisol and adrenaline levels measured.    This is not done in the standard medical office so that's why I offer these tests through my office, so you can do them yourself at home. You can find these on the links below. Then you and I can meet, and I can help you understand your results and how to address them and use the right protocol of nutrients and herbs for you.   https://doctordoni.com/product/assess-your-stress-type/    And this is not a one-size-fits-all treatment. Not everyone needs the same nutrients and herbs. It is crucial that we understand how our bodies respond to stress as an individual, and what doses and supplements are needed for our bodies to start healing.     In my latest book “Master Your Stress, Reset Your Health” (https://doctordoni.com/master-your-stress/) I identified the correct sequence for helping you to get your cortisol, adrenaline and neurotransmitters back to optimal again, and it's based on what I refer to as your unique Stress Type.    Once we know your Stress Type, we can help you to efficiently implement the nutrients and herbs that will help bring your levels back to optimal.    -   You can find which is your unique Stress Type by taking my Stress Quiz here: https://doctordoni.com/quiz      I have also set up the stress type supplement bundles where you can get just the right supplements for your specific stress type. You can find these bundles in my store here: https://doctordoni.com/product-category/dr-doni-products/dr-doni-packages/    This is how passionate I am about helping you to recover from stress, including stress from loss of a loved one, so you can prevent the health issues associated with grief and so that you can be thriving in your life.    If I can be of more assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to me to set up a one-on-one appointment if you prefer: https://doctordoni.com/work-with-me/    You can also check out my most recent free masterclass: Transform Your Life: Get to the Root of Anxiety and Depression: https://doctordoni.com/transformanxiety/#blank-1    We're here to help you!   -   References:    Buckley T, Sunari D, Marshall A, Bartrop R, McKinley S, Tofler G.
