The Future of Everything presented by Stanford Engineering

Neurobiologist Jamie Zeitzer is an expert on sleep – or, more accurately, an expert on why so many can't sleep. He notes that, ironically, it's often anxiety about sleep that prevents good sleep. In short, we lose sleep over lost sleep. Wearables and other tools can help but only to a point, and medications do not induce natural sleep. Instead, he counsels consistent routines, less stimulation at bedtime, and cognitive behavioral therapy to reduce worry about insomnia. Unfortunately, you can't work harder to get better sleep – you have to learn to relax, Zeitzer tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

Understanding ADHD in Adults

ADHD has been well understood in the classroom. For a long time, ADHD has been well understood in children and treated for optimal growth in their maturing years. What about adults? What does ADHD look like later in life? How should we understand its effect on life and relationships? How do we treat the disorder for optimal living in the mature years?    Show notes:  What is ADHD?  ADHD stands for Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder. It is a brain disorder. Individuals with ADHD might find it difficult to focus, stay on task, calm and quiet themselves.  What is the neuroscience behind ADHD?  ADHD is a delay in brain development. When certain neurotransmitters are unable to be balanced in the brain, ADHD will result. Two significant neurotransmitters out of balance in the ADHD brain are dopamine and norepinephrine. Dopamine promotes focus, motivation and reward. Norepinephrine regulates judgement and control.  When does ADHD show up?  When ADHD is present, it will show up in childhood. However, the disorder does persist into adulthood. How ADHD is manifested through the aging process differs. For example, hyperactivity which manifests itself outward in youth is still present in an adult but is often experienced more inwardly. ADHD adults have an advantage over ADHD children because they have more control over their environment. For example, the classroom is imposed on the life of a child but a career conducive to an ADHD adult is within their control.  How is ADHD diagnosed?  ADHD can be diagnosed at any point in a person's life. Two methods for diagnosis are available:  A clinical diagnosis happens when a professional evaluates the presence of the disorder by interview. Through a holistic battery of questions to the client as well as those who live and work closely with them an ADHD determination can be given.   A neuro-psychological evaluation can be given by a professional. This approach includes cognitive skills assessments.  It is important to note that before “ruling in” ADHD, many things need to be “ruled out.” There are many confounding matters such as anxiety and depression that conflate the ADHD diagnosis.     If someone suspects ADHD, should they get a diagnosis?  Yes and no.  Knowing what is contributing to pain is helpful in working through and finding remedies for it. If what an individual suspects to be ADHD is causing ongoing pain in their relationships and responsibilities, a diagnosis has purpose.   If very mild ADHD is present but not causing ongoing life disruption and pain, then a diagnosis may not be necessary.  What are some “helps” for those with ADHD?  Two routes can be taken for assisting those with ADHD:  Therapy can be helpful in learning good coping, lifestyle management and relationship skills. These skills can help mitigate the pain ADHD can cause.  Because ADHD is an imbalance of neurotransmitters, medication is available to help bring balance where imbalance is present.  Is having ADHD only negative in a person's life?  Fortunately, many have lived well with their ADHD. Their brain is able to take in a lot of stimuli at the same time. Their activated state can produce many benefits such as creativity and ambition.

Send us a text- On-Demand Programme Link - https://mailchi.mp/bb2a7b851246/kairos-centreI like this article by Luke Gilkerson (as long ago as 2012), when he interviewed a Neuroscientist called Dr William Struthers - author of the book "How pornograpghy Hijacks the male brain"Dr Struthers explains what hormones and neurotransmitters are involved in porn addiction. Hope you find this intriguing and interesting:Testosterone: Testosterone drives a man's interest in sex. Fantasizing or viewing images, will release testosterone. This creates an intense and growing desire for sexual release.Norepinephrine: Is the brain's version of adrenaline. It is responsible for making us alert, help us to wake up, fall asleep and to stay alert upon the task in hand. During sexual arousal, it alerts the brain to “Something is about to happen and we need to get ready for it.” It “ramps up” the brain for activity.Serotonin: is a neurotransmitter tied to mood. Low serotonin levels can lead to struggling with depression. Although not specifically tied to sex, when sexual arousal happens, serotonin is released in small packets in the brain. It elevates the overall sense of excitement and enjoyment. Dopamine: Dopamine is not sexually specific (like testosterone). The brain is wired in such a way that it wants to remember where our natural drives are satisfied; Just like when we are thirsty, we know where to find water. The brain is wired to place significance on the place we found it so we can return to that place. Dopamine is the drive-related neurotransmitter that accomplishes this mental focus for us. When we have a dopamine surge, the sense we feel is, “I have got to have this thing. This is what I need right now, and here's where I get it.” Dopamine is the way your brain remembers how sexual craving was satisfied in the past, pushing you to seek out the same thing in the future. For the porn addict, Dopamine creates a sharp focus on finding porn.Endogenous Opiates: The body produces natural forms of opium called endorphins. Endorphins relieve pain. Like opium, it gives a euphoric feeling of well-being. When a man ejaculates, these opiates create a “high” and a wave of pleasure coursing over the body.Oxytocin and Vasopressin: These are hormones released in the brain in response to ejaculation. They help lay down the long-term memories for the cells. They “bind” a person's memories to the object that gave the sexual pleasure. When someone returns to pornography again and again, this cements a “relationship” with what he has seen.So, bringing them all together: As a male goes through his day, testosterone levels begin to increase as he stares at the source of his sexual attraction or fantasizes. He creates a desire for sexual release. Norepinephrine is being released, making his brain more and more primed and ready for action. Serotonin is also released, creating a sense of excitement about the pending sexual “payoff.” Dopamine is focusing the mind, telling the brain, “You have to go back to the attraction where that reliable payoff is at.” As he seeks out the attraction, he masturbates, releasing endogenous opiates into the brain, giving him a rush of euphoria. Oxytocin and vasopressin are released, binding him to the images he sees.Repeat, beckons in the immediate future – when it will all start again and again, and again and again….Until the cycle is interrupted.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis and JP Kolcun, a neurosurgery resident, delve into the complexities of spinal trauma. They discuss the differences between spinal shock and neurogenic shock, the assessment and management of penetrating and blunt spinal injuries, and the critical importance of addressing secondary injuries. The conversation emphasizes the need for timely intervention and the nuances of trauma care in both field and hospital settings. This conversation delves into the complexities of spinal cord injury treatment, emphasizing the importance of timely surgical decompression, understanding spinal cord perfusion, and the role of intrathecal pressure. The discussion highlights the need for optimizing spinal cord perfusion pressure and the implications of using vasopressors. Innovations in treatment, including the potential for intrathecal medication delivery and advancements in brain-computer interfaces, are explored as future avenues for improving patient outcomes. Takeaways Spinal shock is a neurologic phenomenon, while neurogenic shock is hemodynamic. Penetrating spinal cord injuries are often more severe than blunt injuries. Immediate stabilization and ABCs are crucial in trauma care. Understanding the difference between spinal shock and spinal cord injury is vital. Secondary injury can worsen outcomes if not addressed promptly. Timely decompression of the spinal cord can improve recovery chances. Assessment of spinal stability is essential in blunt trauma cases. The presence of a bulbocavernous reflex can indicate spinal cord injury. Norepinephrine is preferred for treating neurogenic shock. Avoid hypotension to prevent further complications in spinal injuries. The timing of surgical decompression can significantly impact recovery. Surgical decisions must consider the overall health of the patient, not just the injury. Spinal cord perfusion is critical for recovery post-injury. Intrathecal pressure varies and can affect spinal cord perfusion. Targeting spinal cord perfusion pressure may improve outcomes over traditional MAP goals. Vasopressors can constrict blood vessels, potentially reducing perfusion to the spinal cord. Innovative treatments, such as lumbar drains, can enhance spinal cord perfusion. Research is ongoing into the use of intrathecal medications for spinal cord injury. The ultimate goal is to improve quality of life for spinal cord injury patients. Advancements in technology may lead to breakthroughs in treating chronic spinal cord injuries.

This week, during the Metabolic Classroom lecture, Dr. Ben Bikman examines the metabolic consequences of medications used for mental health, such as antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs. Ben highlights the close connection between mental health disorders like depression and anxiety with metabolic issues, particularly insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. These medications, while effective for managing mental health symptoms, often lead to metabolic side effects such as weight gain and insulin resistance, complicating the relationship between mental and metabolic health.Dr. Bikman reviews key neurotransmitters—serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine—that influence both mental and metabolic functions. Serotonin helps regulate mood and appetite but can promote fat accumulation and inhibit fat breakdown. Dopamine is associated with pleasure and reward systems but also plays a role in regulating energy expenditure and fat metabolism. Norepinephrine, closely related to adrenaline, is involved in the body's stress response and can stimulate fat breakdown and thermogenesis.The lecture then shifts to the metabolic effects of common mental health medications, such as SSRIs, tricyclic antidepressants, and antipsychotics. While these drugs can stabilize mood, they are often linked to significant metabolic disturbances, including weight gain, insulin resistance, and cravings for carbohydrate-heavy foods. Ben notes that these medications may exacerbate underlying metabolic issues, potentially worsening the mental health conditions they are meant to treat.Dr. Bikman concludes by emphasizing the importance of addressing metabolic health when treating mental health disorders. He highlights the role of brain glucose hypometabolism, where insulin resistance in the brain may contribute to anxiety and depression. He suggests that improving metabolic health through approaches like ketogenic diets could potentially enhance mental health outcomes by better nourishing the brain and restoring neurotransmitter balance.https://www.insuliniq.com Ben's favorite meal-replacement shake: https://gethlth.com (discount: BEN10)Ben's favorite electrolytes (and more): https://redmond.life (discount: BEN15)Ben's favorite allulose source: https://rxsugar.com (discount: BEN20)Ben's favorite health check-up for women: https://choosejoi.co/drben15 (discount: DRBEN15)Ben's favorite health check-up for men: https://blokes.co/drben15 (discount: DRBEN15)References:Due to character length constraints, references are not posted here.

Why are some of us anxious and some of us excited (or a combo platter of both)? And is it possible to turn anxiety, or anger, or shame spirals, into something else?  David and Isabelle swap stories, talk transgenerational trauma, and get curious about how we are socialized to mask and behave...and that perhaps the solution for being overly apologetic lies in the midwestern gem: "ope.”-----Isabelle starts by expanding on the idea of how you think about things, how that inner landscape can connect into tapping into norepinephrine—if you're practicing going “I see you anxiety, I see what you're trying to do, and I'm so grateful I have you because it helps me…” what it means to not shame or blame yourself for having an instinct to worry versus what you do know to be true. Short of someone giving you direct feedback, you don't have data either way, so saying hi to your anxiety or feeling, and taking a few breaths to be grateful. Then when you do have a tough moment, like a hard meeting at work, you won't beat yourself up about it as much. David even says: you can skip the shame spiral. Norepinephrine is so much about the inertia and movement of something. People with kids who have ADHD either have a very very clean room, or very very messy room. For those with a messy room, they're like “where to start? Do I burn it and start over again?” Then you give them one specific thing to do, they earn dopamine from that one thing. So you build momentum by building a feedback loop between dopamine and norepinephrine, because you judge yourself on a very reasonable scale. If you make a broad request, it's like “whaaa?” If you say “pick up your legos” or “Hunt for all the legos you can, you have 7 minutes, you earn 3 snarf points? What's a snarf point? I'll tell you in 7 minutes”—you now have specificity, and time pressure, and reward. Isabelle describes that she lives in the anxious side of the spectrum, and David lives in the excitement of it. If anxiety and excitement are the same physiological symptoms, how can you replace the two things? Isabelle wonders at her anxiety, which she is not bummed about, but knows that it's a part of her, and also knows that it has served her and her people across the generations—like she feels less anxious when she has a very stocked pantry or fridge. How can that be turned into excitement? We're talking about the interplay of epigenetics, and the interplay of how you lean into the anxiety. If you're in the United States, you'd be hard pressed to not have a transgenerational history of trauma, and as men and women (and non-binary folx), we are treated differently and are rewarded for going to anger or anxiety.  Men are traditionally reinforced for getting angry in the U.S.—it's reinforcing for them, and it's not great, and in the same way anxiety may be reinforced for women. Not that it's so cut and dry and binary-based. David elaborates that his impulsivity has been viewed as confidence, whereas for women, it can be viewed as overemotionality, and can be shamed, or put in corners. David had to work really hard to find excitement, he was way more in that angry place, fighting any system, any person he could. When you get angry, you feel yucky afterwards for like two hours, and he met really good friends, had an amazing brother, and had good supports, and a lot of people don't have that. And he had a choice in that moment whether to get anxious or excited. Isabelle is so grateful David shared that about himself and felt so seen, really resonating with the idea that whereas David's impulsivity was viewed as confidence, hers was read as overreacting, or overdramatic. She describes how she makes big gestures and shrieks and has big reactions to things and how often she has to blunt them or try to mask them in her daily life. She also recognizes the layers of privilege she carries as a white, cisgendered woman, that she has gotten a lot of reinforcement for her anxiety. Her asking, let's say, her kid's teacher a detail-oriented question seems almost assumed, that she would be the one who needs to be vigilant about the details of things, whereas her husband, Bobby, is seen as winning the day if he gets the kids to school, even though he is more effective at this. How we're socially viewed impacts how we think about it—perhaps Bobby running late is viewed as he was busy doing important things, whereas Isabelle names she has been conditioned to be extra apologetic and nervous and take it on as some awful thing that she's running late. David goes into Tavistock group dynamics stuff (see show notes below)—based around the work of Wilfred Bion—where people learn how they are in a group. David was in a group and someone came in late and were overly explaining it, the group ended up attacking her about all her apologies—David named there is an art to being late, and it is this: acknowledging the inconvenience, being very small, and apologizing at the end. Don't talk too much or give too many specifics, just say “my bad” and be quiet and wait to figure out what's happening. David and Isabelle both agree that they are habitually late, and hate being late, but will be late because of who they are. They just will be. Isabelle names an old meme: “Sorry I was late, it's because of who I am as a person.” She mentions connecting with her friends, one of whom says instead of saying “I'm so sorry” for being late, reserve sorries for deep relational healing moments where you feel harm was caused, intentionally or not. For example, being late, or accidentally bumping into someone, or dropping something off late—is not always the context for an “I'm sorry,” but instead, you could use the phrase “thank you for your patience.” David agrees, except for the bumping into someone else part—he has to say he's sorry. Isabelle thinks a simple midwestern “ope!” Will suffice, which David recently witnessed himself doing in the wild. Ope: (according to Urban Dictionary) - a midwestern U.S. way of acknowledging another person or thing they have encountered. Ope! Sorry I bumped into you, Jim. Ope, there's my wallet. Ope! I missed my bus! (added by us): Also known as an interjection of surprise and implied apology.DAVID'S DEFINITIONS Epigenetics - from CDC “Epigenetics is the study of how your behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the way your genes work. Unlike genetic changes, epigenetic changes are reversible and do not change your DNA sequence, but they can change how your body reads a DNA sequence.” (source: CDC)Transgenerational trauma: from wikipedia“is the psychological and physiological effects that the trauma experienced by people has on subsequent generations in that group.” (source: Wikipedia) Imagine the collective trauma experienced by groups of people surviving slavery, wars, famine, natural disasters, etc. and the ways in which epigenetic (see definition above) may alter the way even our genes can express themselves and how we adapt and respond to stressors.

In this episode, Doug and Dennis discuss the appropriate use of vasopressors, specifically epinephrine and norepinephrine, in the management of shock. They highlight the importance of fluids in sepsis resuscitation and the potential dangers of using high concentrations of epinephrine. They also discuss the different effects of epinephrine and norepinephrine on heart rate and blood pressure, and the potential side effects of epinephrine, such as arrhythmias and lactic acidosis. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the use of epinephrine in anaphylaxis and the importance of individualizing treatment based on the patient's response. Takeaways Epinephrine is commonly used as a vasopressor in the management of shock, but it should be used with caution due to its potential side effects. Norepinephrine is often preferred over epinephrine in sepsis resuscitation due to its more selective vasoconstrictive effects and lower risk of arrhythmias. Fluid resuscitation is an important component of sepsis management and should be prioritized before initiating vasopressor therapy. Monitoring the patient's response to vasopressor therapy, including blood pressure, heart rate, and organ perfusion, is crucial in determining the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. Individualizing treatment based on the patient's specific needs and response is essential in optimizing outcomes in shock management.

Gina Poe has been working since 1995 on the mechanisms through which sleep serves memory consolidation and restructuring. Dr. Poe is a southern California native who graduated from Stanford University then worked for two post-baccalaureate years at the VA researching Air Force Test Pilots' brainwave signatures under high-G maneuvers. She then earned her PhD in Basic Sleep in the Neuroscience Interdepartmental Program at UCLA under the guidance of Ronald Harper then moved to the University of Arizona for her postdoctoral studies with Carol Barnes and Bruce McNaughtons looking at graceful degradation of hippocampal function in aged rats as well as hippocampal coding in a 3-D maze navigated in the 1998 space shuttle mission. She brought these multiunit teachings to answer a burning question of whether REM sleep were for remembering or forgetting and found that activity of neurons during REM sleep is consistent both with the consolidation of novel memories and the elimination of already consolidated memories from the hippocampus, readying the associative memory network for new learning the next day. Moving first to Washington State University then to the University of Michigan before joining UCLA in 2016, Poe has over 80 undergraduates, 6 graduate students, and 6 postdoctoral scholars, and has served in university faculty governance as well as leading 5 different programs designed to diversify the neuroscience workforce and increase representation of people of the global majority in the STEM fields. At UCLA she continues research and teaching and Directs the COMPASS-Life Sciences and BRI-SURE programs and co-Directs the MARC-U*STAR program. Nationally she is course director of the Marine Biological Lab's SPINES course and co-Directs the Society for Neuroscience's NSP program which earned the nation's highest mentoring honor in 2018. These programs have served over 600 PhD level trainees over the years.The Poe lab investigates the mechanisms by which sleep traits serve learning and memory consolidation. Memories are encoded by the pattern of synaptic connections between neurons. We employ tetrode recording and optogenetic techniques in learning animals to see how neural patterns underlying learning are reactivated during sleep, and how activity during sleep influences the neural memory code. Both strengthening and weakening of synapses is important to the process of sculpting a network when we make new memories and integrate them into old schema. Results from our studies suggest that while synaptic strengthening can be efficiently accomplished during the waking learning process, the synaptic weakening part of memory integration requires conditions unique to sleep. The absence of noradrenaline during sleep spindles and REM sleep as well as the low levels of serotonin during REM sleep allow the brain to integrate new memories and to refresh and renew old synapses so that we are ready to build new associations the next waking period. Memory difficulties involved in post-traumatic stress disorder, Schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease and even autism involve abnormalities in the sleep-dependent memory consolidation process that my lab studies.

How Emotions Affect Your Organs

What goes on in your mind has a profound effect on your body. Thoughts and emotions affect all organs, including the immune, nervous, hormonal, circulatory, and reproductive systems. Emotional wellness is a vital part of your health & total wellness. When our emotions become excessive or repressed for a long time, they negatively impact the energy flow through our meridians. Your Heart and Your Emotions The heart pumps blood to nourish the cells but can get weakened due to anxiety and stress. Anxiety can affect the heart's normal functioning, raising your blood pressure and white blood cell count and increasing blood sugar through the action of adrenalin. Stress affects circulation, the heart, and the nervous system. In early Western medicine, doctors already believed emotions caused diseases. A powerful mind-body connection through which emotional, mental, social, spiritual, and behavioral factors can directly affect our health. Living with fear often leads to depression and negatively impacts health. Learning to unwind before bed and nourishing a grateful heart with optimistic thinking by writing in a gratitude journal is good for your health. Connecting Emotions and Wellness The connection between emotions and the human body has been a core topic throughout the history of science. Research indicates there are close relationships between emotions and bodily reactions during the formation of mental experiences. Physiological responses, such as cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, skeletomuscular, and autonomic nervous systems, trigger emotional experiences. Now, we understand that direct and instantaneous interactions within the body allow an emotion to be a mental recognition and a feeling within the body. The mind and body are within a unified framework. Different functions and components of the bodily system are related to corresponding categorical emotions. A 2017 research on “Understanding Mind-Body Interaction from the Perspective of East Asian Medicine” analyzed relationships between the visceral system and emotions according to the principles of East Asian medicine. The research concluded the following: -anger was related to the liver, -happiness to the heart, -thoughtfulness to the heart and spleen, -sadness to the heart and lungs, -fear to the kidneys, heart, liver, and gallbladder, -surprise to the heart and gallbladder, and -anxiety to the heart and the lungs. The research also demonstrated that specific patterns existed between the visceral system and corresponding emotions, which suggests that each emotion is primarily associated with a connected body system and corresponds to the principles of East Asian medicine. For example, the DongUiBoGam, the Korean book compiled by the royal physician Heo Jun and was first published in 1613, states the following: “The liver is in charge of anger, the heart is in charge of happiness, the spleen is in charge of thoughtfulness, the lungs are in charge of sadness, and the kidneys are in charge of fear.” Imbalances in emotions can lead to illnesses in their corresponding organs, such as -anger damages the liver, -happiness damages the heart, -thoughts damages the spleen, -anxiety damages the lungs, -fear damages the kidneys, and -surprise damages the gallbladder. The relationship between the mind and the body is horizontal, meaning the heart is significantly prevalent in most emotions. Experts consider the heart as common visceral system that influences emotions. The Korean book states the heart stores the mind, and feelings of sadness, thoughtfulness, and worries all damage the heart, signifying the heart's role in processing thoughts and emotions. Western medicine and East Asian medicine have different understanding of emotions and their relationship to the body, which leads to distinct interpretations of illness. Western medicine deals with emotional disorders using neural language, and East Asian medicine uses somatic language. Understanding this difference can offer a comprehensive perspective when healing the human body and its symptoms. Both viewpoints help us understand emotional health. The somatic language uses intuition to unlock your powers to soothe, calm, and heal. From the moment we're born, we instinctively seek ways to help and nourish our human condition. Neuroscience Lense on Emotions Neuroscience offers a look at how emotions impact the body. Neurophysiological factors play a vital role in the process of emotions. In 1985, neuroscientist Candace Pert discovered small proteins known as neuropeptides activate the circuits linked to emotions. Therefore, it's helpful to look at both Western and East Asian medicine approaches and to gain insight into how your body is functioning and take the guesswork out; getting tested with a non-invasive urine test to check over 70 markers, including your neurotransmitters, is essential. Why is it so essential to check neurotransmitters in balancing your emotions? First, conventional doctors never check your markers, so how will they offer the best solution for you? Do you know what your neurotransmitter levels are? Here are some of the important markers that we check with our specialized labs and why it is imperative to check the following markers: Norepinephrine marker: Responsible for the regulation of cardiovascular activity, body temperature, and pain sensation. Research has shown that there is a close link between this marker and anxiety and a relationship between depression and disturbance of norepinephrine in the brain. Serotonin marker: Found in the central nervous system, the gastrointestinal tract, and blood platelets influences biological and neurological processes, such as anxiety, aggression, appetite, sleep, mood, and thermoregulation. Dopamine marker: Responsible for emotion regulation is associated with mood, behavior, and cognition mediation. Recent studies in Western medicine suggest dysregulation of neurotransmitters could be one of the most important causes of emotional issues. Interest in the neuroscientific investigation has increased dramatically in the past few decades, and that's where functional medicine lab testing comes in to provide further insight into your total wellness. Integrating East & West would look into supporting organs while testing for your neurotransmitters and GI health levels with an organic acid test bundle. Support the liver function by balancing the HPA axis, spleen function by aiding the digestive system, and heart function with blood circulation and brain activity regulation. The mind-body connection is natural and scientifically proven, as your body responds to how you think, feel, and act. Your body reacts physically when stressed, anxious, or upset. You may develop high blood pressure or stomachache after a stressful event. Learn to listen to your body and keep a journal of your symptoms and feelings. Take a personal body scan to see if you can feel where your emotions impact your body. How Emotions Affect Your Body Every organ corresponds to a particular emotion. Every disease stems from an organ or meridian/energy channel imbalance. Anger weakens your Liver Grief weakens your Lungs Worry weakens your Stomach Stress weakens your Heart and Brain Fear weakens your Kidneys. Love brings peace and harmony, strengthening your mind and body. Gaining insight into your neurotransmitters brings awareness and understanding. Dive into the East Meets West Approach to Understanding Emotion Dysregulation when you gain insight into your neurotransmitter levels and get them balanced. Bypass the appointment and the drive and get the convenience of lab testing sent to your home. Gain access to a variety of cutting-edge lab tests to get a deep dive into your health.  Your healthcare practitioner should know about your emotional health Discuss with your practitioner if your feelings are causing your physical problems and ways to manage not only your physical symptoms but also your emotional ones.

Trial of the Week: SOAP II Special Guest: Jessica Casey, PharmD, BCPS, BCCP @jmc_cardspharmd   Jessica Casey joins to discuss the April Trial of the Week “Comparison of Dopamine and Norepinephrine in the Treatment of Shock,” the SOAP II study, published in NEJM in 2010. We set the scene by reviewing catecholamine vasopressor receptor physiology, guideline recommendations, and pre-SOAP II research. Then we do a deep dive into the SOAP II trial of the week. Did including all forms of shock help or hurt? How does the mortality in this study compare with others? Would this have been as positive of a study in 2024? What do the guidelines recommend now? Is dopamine dead? Will anyone take norepinephrine's throne? Jessica and I review trial fun facts, stand-out supplementary materials, and much, much more.   Reference list: https://pharmacytodose.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/soap-ii-trial-of-the-week-references.pdf   PharmacyToDose.Com @PharmacyToDose PharmacyToDose@Gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, we delve into the science behind the MAOB gene and monoamine neurotransmitters.  Join us as we explore the crucial role of dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine in regulating mood and cognition.  We dissect the function of the MAOB gene in metabolizing neurotransmitters and discuss the implications of genetic variations on mental health.  From increased breakdown linked to mood disorders to decreased activity associated with elevated neurotransmitter levels, we unravel the complex interplay between genes and mental well-being. - Check out SelfDecode: https://selfdecode.com/ - Join Joe's online community: https://thejoecohenshow.com/

We recently made a significant vasopressor protocol change at MCHD, prioritizing norepinephrine in all shock situations except anaphylaxis and bradycardia. The evidence supporting norepinephrine in septic and even cariogenic shock is relatively solid. However, recent data has emerged suggesting norepinephrine may be safer in post-ROSC shock as well.

In this episode, I explain how medications such as Adderall, Ritalin, Vyvanse and other stimulants work to increase focus and treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I explain the brain circuits involved in focus and the key roles dopamine and norepinephrine play in their regulation. Then I explain how stimulants such as Adderall and Vyvanse can increase focus and reduce hyperactivity in kids or adults with ADHD, and how and why Ritalin and other medications (e.g., Modafinil, Guanfacine) may work better for some. I explain the long-term effects of ADHD medications on height, cardiovascular health, hormones, predisposition to addiction and psychosis, and whether these treatments can be used and then stopped. I also discuss the immense individual variation in dosage sensitivity for these medications and the negative side-effects that occur from recreational use.
