Send us Fan MailWe spend enormous amounts of time trying to extend life - but almost no time learning how to deal with the fact that it ends. And that gap is creating enormous suffering for families.Dr. Marianne Matzo, Ph.D., FAAN is a nationally recognized gerontologist, hospice nurse, educator, researcher, and advocate whose career has been devoted to one of the most universal - and often avoided - human experiences: dying.Dr. Matzo is a Fellow of the American Academy of Nursing, one of the profession's highest honors, and served as Professor and the Frances E. and A. Earl Ziegler Chair in Palliative Care Nursing at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. Over a distinguished academic career, she helped shape the field of palliative care education, co-authoring the first palliative care nursing textbook published in the United States, now in its fifth edition.Dr. Matzo's research has explored everything from end-of-life communication and assisted dying to sexual health among people living with serious illness, helping to advance both clinical practice and public understanding.Following her retirement from full-time academia, Dr. Matzo launched the nonprofit organization Everyone Dies ( https://every1dies.org/ ), dedicated to public education about serious illness, dying, death, and bereavement. Through podcasts, educational resources, and children's literature, she is working to transform how Americans think about mortality and helping families navigate some of life's most difficult conversations with greater confidence, compassion, and clarity.Today we'll explore Dr. Matzo's remarkable career, the evolution of hospice and palliative care, why our culture struggles to discuss death, and what it would mean to build a society that approaches the end of life with wisdom rather than fear.#DeathEducation #PalliativeCare #HospiceCare #EndOfLifeCare #GriefSupport #Healthcare #MedicalEthics #Aging #Gerontology #AdvanceCarePlanning #HospiceNurse #PublicHealth #Longevity #DeathPositive #SeriousIllness #Caregiving #Wellness #Medicine #Bioethics #EveryoneDiesSupport the show

Claim your complimentary gift of my exclusive mini weight care guide today!Link: Weight Care Guide — Dr. Francavilla Show (thedrfrancavillashow.com)What if something being talked about as “cutting-edge” in health spaces… isn't actually well understood yet?I'm excited to talk about a topic that keeps coming up everywhere right now — peptides.They're being discussed in clinics, online forums, and social media feeds, often with a mix of confidence and confusion. The problem is, the conversation has gotten so loud that it's hard to separate what's actually known from what's just being repeated. So instead of trying to cover this alone, I wanted to bring in someone who can help ground it in real clinical experience and science.Joining the conversation is Dr. Michael Albert. He's a board-certified internal medicine physician and a diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine. He trained at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, where he served as a Kenmar Fellow and faculty member, and he went on to found the medical weight management program at the Weight Loss Center.He currently serves as a clinical assistant professor of medicine at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center and is the co-founder and chief medical officer of Accomplish Health, a nationwide telehealth practice focused on comprehensive obesity medicine and medical bariatrics. His work is centered on translating medical evidence into practical, patient-centered care and improving how conversations around obesity are handled in clinical settings.Beyond his clinical work, Dr. Albert is also widely known for his educational content online, where he shares clear, science-based explanations to an audience of more than 300,000 people across platforms.So with that context in place, we're breaking down peptides — what they actually are, what the science says, and where the gaps still are.Topics covered in this episode:• What peptides actually are (explained simply)• Why people are starting to trust new, unproven treatments over well-studied ones• Why there's so little reliable human data on popular peptides right now• What “FDA categories” for peptides really mean (and what they don't mean)• Why some peptides can affect more than one system in the body (and why that matters)• Whether it ever makes sense to use peptides in real-world medical situations• The real research history behind BPC-157 and why it keeps coming upIf you want the full breakdown and the reasoning behind each of these points, check out the full episode where we go deeper into how peptides actually work in the body, what the current evidence really shows, and where the biggest gaps in understanding still are.Connect with Dr. Albert:Instagram: michaelalbertmdWebsite: Michael Albert, MDTiktok: www.accomplish.healthYoutube: Michael Albert MDLinkedIn: Michael Albert MDBsky: Michael “Mike” Albert MDConnect with me:Instagram: doctorfrancavillaFacebook: Help Your Patients Lose Weight with Dr. FrancavillaWebsite: Dr. Francavilla ShowYoutube: The Doctor Francavilla Sh

BUFFALO, NY – July 24, 2025 – A new #casereport was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on July 23, 2025, titled “Extracorporeal blood filtration leading to tumor growth arrest and reduced analgesic requirements in Stage IV poorly differentiated pancreatic adenocarcinoma: A case report.” In this report, Susanna Ulahannan from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center and colleagues describe the use of extracorporeal blood filtration in a patient with metastatic pancreatic cancer. The patient experienced clinical improvement, reduced pain, and no signs of new tumor growth over 12 months of follow-up. Metastatic pancreatic cancer is difficult to treat and is often diagnosed at an advanced stage. In this case, a 51-year-old woman with stage IV poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma chose not to undergo standard chemotherapy. Instead, she received extracorporeal blood filtration with the Seraph® 100 device, which is designed to remove circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from the bloodstream. CTCs are thought to contribute to the spread of cancer to other organs. “Circulating tumor cells (CTC's) are tumor cells that are shed from the primary tumor and travel via blood or lymphatic system to form micro metastases in distant organs under a suitable environment.“ The patient received between nine and twelve treatments over the course of a year. These treatments were performed both abroad, where the device is approved for this use, and under a clinical protocol in the United States. Medical imaging showed that her disease remained stable, with no new metastases detected. She also reported improvements in appetite, energy levels, and pain control. Her opioid use was reduced by 90%. Blood samples confirmed a drop in CTC levels after treatment. This observation supports the idea that removing CTCs might help limit cancer progression in some patients. However, given that this is a single case report, larger clinical studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach. The mechanism behind the patient's pain relief is not fully understood. Authors suggest that it may be related to the reduction of tumor cells or inflammatory molecules in the blood. Researchers noted that pro-inflammatory cytokines, known to influence pain, could also have been affected by the filtration process. This is the first documented case of stable disease and reduced symptoms following CTC filtration in advanced pancreatic cancer. While these findings should not be generalized, they highlight an approach outside standard protocols that should be further explored in clinical research. Future studies will be needed to determine whether this method can contribute to symptom management or disease control in other patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Molecular differences in the profiles of low grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC) and high-grade SOC substantiate the need to find unique, differentiated treatment options for each epithelial ovarian cancer subtype, according to Kathleen N. Moore, MD, MS. CancerNetwork® spoke with Moore, Virginia Kerley Cade Endowed Chair of Cancer Development, associate director of Clinical Research at the Stephenson Cancer Center, director of the Oklahoma TSET Phase I Program and professor in the Section of Gynecologic Oncology the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, about distinguishing low grade serous ovarian cancer from other types of ovarian cancer, current treatment options and clinical trials evaluating new regimens, as well as managing treatment in younger patients with or those seeking to preserve fertility. Moore began by differentiating LGSOC from high grade SOC, stating that this disease typically occurred in younger patients and was primarily characterized by MAP kinase alterations, specifically KRAS and BRAF mutations. She then discussed the emergence of endocrine therapies in this indication owing to the presence of estrogen receptors. Additionally, first line treatment was discussed, with the standard of care defined by primary cytoreduction followed by paclitaxel and carboplatin. She then highlighted multiple clinical trials assessing alternative treatment in this indication, particularly involving the use of letrozole (Femara). Other clinical trials evaluated the use of CDK4/6 inhibition plus fulvestrant or BRAF and MEK inhibition with letrozole, with Moore emphasizing the potential for these studies to shift the treatment paradigm in the frontline setting. Furthermore, she suggested that CDK4/6 inhibition may help enhance responses in patients with recurrent LGSOC. Moore then highlighted treatment concerns for younger patients and those seeking to preserve fertility, while expressing the importance of understanding a patient's goals, which may help optimize outcomes. She concluded by reiterating the importance of designing trials and tailoring treatment considering the molecular profile of LGSOC.

Public Health Careers podcast episode with Breanca Merritt, PhD, MA

The Federal Communications Commission, or FCC, considers a new way to alert the public when adults go missing. The tool looks a lot like the Kasey alerts that launched five months ago as a way to address the Missing & Murdered Indigenous People, or MMIP, crisis in Oklahoma. Both are similar to the AMBER alert & Silver alert system. KOSU / OPMX's Sarah Liese reports on how the Kasey alert system is doing & what the new FCC tool could mean for Indigenous Nations throughout the U.S. At the end of April, Governor Kevin Stitt signed Senate Bill 1854 into law, criminalizing homelessness with the potential to incur misdemeanors & face a possible 15 days in jail. The new law, taking effect in November, does not provide new funding for housing Oklahomans without shelter. While Stitt & some Republicans tout the bill as a means for public protection, some Democrats say it will only amplify the problems unhoused Oklahomans face as well as add to already overburdened & overcrowded jails across the state. Shonda Little speaks with State Representative Forrest Bennett & a former unhoused Oklahoman about the law.During the pandemic, schools received a big boost from the federal government through the Elementary & Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund, or ESSER Fund. ESSER Funds are scheduled to end soon. StateImpact's Beth Wallis reports, when that money ends, so may the after-school programs made possible by those funds.The recent recall election of Judd Blevins in Enid, which received national attention for his alleged ties with Nazi & white supremacist groups, led to a win for Republican challenger, Cheryl Patterson. All while Garfield County gears up for elections to be held on June 18. The Garfield County District One Commissioner seat is open- current Commissioner Marc Bolz stepped down. Three candidates are running for that position; Chris Bigbey, Assistant Lead County Foreman & Assistant Volunteer Fire Chief in Covington sat down with Venson Fields, while Joe Kegin & Jamie Hedges did not respond to an interview request. In the race for Garfield County Court Clerk, the current Court Clerk, Janelle Sharp, was run against challenger Kathy Voth, the current Accounts Manager for the Garfield County Criminal Justice Authority. Voth discusses her first campaign experience & what made her decide to run for office with Fields.

Have you ever took longer to achieve something you desired but finishing what you started meant more to you than winning itself? On today's Daily Path Podcast episode Joe Winters Jr. interviews Steve Lovelace, a Motivational Speaker and is proudly known as “The Last Place Winner.” In 1982 Steve had a freak accident that left him paralyzed (spinal cord injury). 4 years later, Steve was completing his first triathlon. While he didn't win the race, he had a much greater victory that day as he would become a triathlete after being told he would never walk again. A desire to succeed and give back led to his 1990 graduation from The University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. A rewarding career as a radiological technologist at Children's Hospital and OU Medical Center followed by a successful and award-winning career in sales at GE Healthcare.

Women's hormone health is one of the most poorly understood areas in medicine, not only among patients but also among practitioners. There is a great deal of misinformation out there and as a result many women end up suffering from their symptoms. One of the conditions that causes the most suffering is Endometriosis, which we discuss today. Endometriosis, a condition in which cells similar to the lining of the uterus grow outside the uterus, causes painful and debilitating symptoms to many women. Oftentimes, an effective solution is not available for these women, prolonging their suffering. Dr. Tassone is one of those people aiming to treat these patients effectively and holistically to improve their quality of life! We discuss: His background, journey into OB/GYN and Functional medicine and why he chose that route? A little background on Estrogen, Progesterone, and Testosterone; their functions and what types of imbalances you normally see with them. What is Endometriosis and why is it caused? What types of symptoms do we see with Endometriosis and how do we diagnose it? Conventional ways of treating Endometriosis vs. Integrative approaches. Brief discussion on bioidentical hormones for the average patient to hear. Guest Bio: Dr. Shawn Tassone, also known as America's holistic gynecologist, is board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology, and by the American Board of Integrative Medicine.

Today, Dr. John M. Flack reminds us that acknowledging the people who have guided us to success does not take away from our accomplishments. He also shares his perspective on work/life balance (Hint: In medical school, there isn't one). And why mentorship is not about getting a pat on the back: We have to be willing to accept constructive criticism. Lastly, he believes the key to staying motivated in medicine is an insatiable appetite for learning. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. An insatiable appetite for learning is the key to staying motivated in medicine. 2. Be open to choosing mentors who are different than you, who can offer you open and honest feedback, and be willing to accept constructive criticism. 3. The “self-made person” is a flawed concept: Be grateful to all of the people who have contributed to your success along your way.

Bryan was making a great living in the energy industry, not totally fulfilled, but also not sure what else he would do with his life. He would drive by the campus of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center and think "man if I could go back I would probably go the medical route". It never felt like a possibility, just a fun idea. He filled the void in his life running, eventually earning 4 IRONMAN titles after starting out with a work-sponsored 5K. He had no idea that the 5K would eventually propel him into leaving a secure, comfortable life in his mid-30s to attend med school. In today's podcast Bryan shares the similarity of training for endurance sports and going through the med school process and how he is a better student later in the game than he would have been in his 20s. We talk about how the distracting chatter of what he "should" do came from himself and the way he combats those thoughts which still come into play today. We talk about how the power of mindset and showing up every day is key when making a big change and how finding your "reset" button will keep you focused and engaged. www.hollykrivo.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soberishuprising/message
