About this episode: For some people with a high risk of ovarian cancer, a standard approach has been full removal of the reproductive organs. But new research points to a far less invasive procedure called a salpingectomy, or removal of the fallopian tubes, as a potential “game changer” in ovarian cancer. In this episode: understanding high grade serous carcinoma—the most common type of ovarian cancer—the lack of screening tools, and why fallopian tube removal isn't yet available to more people. Guest: Dr. Rebecca Stone is an OBGYN, a professor in the Johns Hopkins Medicine Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, and the director of The Kelly Gynecologic Oncology Service. Host: Stephanie Desmon, MA, is a former journalist, author, and the director of public relations and communications for the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs, the largest center at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

In this episode of "Ditch the Lab Coat," Dr. Mark Bonta welcomes Dr. Behnam Banihashemi, a cardiologist specializing in cardiovascular prevention, wellness, and longevity. Dr. Banihashemi discusses the concept of Medicine 2.0, which includes advancements in pharmaceuticals and interventions that have extended life expectancy in the Western world, along with a focus on improving lifestyle choices to further enhance longevity. However, he emphasizes that the real key to living a longer, healthier life lies in addressing lifestyle factors such as fitness, nutrition, sleep, and mental health.Dr. Banihashemi explains that although cardiac procedures like stents can be life-saving during heart attacks, they do not necessarily improve life expectancy for those with stable angina. Instead, lifestyle changes have a more significant impact. He highlights the influence of pharmaceutical funding on medical research and practice, leading to an emphasis on treatments rather than preventive care.The conversation also covers the limitations of the Canadian healthcare system, which does not incentivize primary prevention, and the potential benefits of certain quick fixes like metformin or supplements like protein and creatine. Dr. Banihashemi stresses that small, consistent actions, despite not being marketable, are essential for longevity and that the healthcare system often focuses more on managing diseases than preventing them. Ultimately, individuals hold the power to take charge of their health through day-by-day lifestyle decisions, adding life to their years, not just years to their lives.Get Dr. Banihashemi's 8 Steps to Conquer Chronic Pain: A Doctor's Guide to Lifelong Relief : https://www.amazon.ca/Steps-Conquer-Chronic-Pain-Lifelong/dp/0778807118 Episode Highlights:Longevity Myths Debunked: Dr. Ben sheds light on the widespread misconception that a magic pill exists for living longer. Spoiler alert: it doesn't! Discover the habits that truly make a difference in extending not only your lifespan but also your health span.Four Pillars of Health: Learn about the core areas that Dr. Ben advocates for—Fitness, Nutrition, Sleep, and Mental Health—and how these simple, intentional choices can vastly improve your quality of life.Real Talk on Medical Interventions: Are cardiac stents the ultimate fix? Dr. Ben discusses the harsh realities of current medical practices focused on quick fixes and how lifestyle changes offer more significant benefits.The Canadian Healthcare Perspective: Ever wondered how the Canadian healthcare system affects patient care?

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Thomas C. Gerber, M.D., Ph.D. The heart is an amazing organ. At rest, the average heart beats approximately 4500 times per hour, slightly over 100,000 times per day. It's quite a reliable organ and unlike our kidneys, lungs and eyes, we only have one heart. We expect a lot from it, if it stops working for even a minute, everything else in our body shuts down. Like an automobile engine, it runs longer and better if it's well cared for. What can we recommend to our patients and what can we do for ourselves to keep the heart healthy? My guest for today's podcast is Thomas C. Gerber, M.D., Ph.D., a preventive cardiologist from the Department of Cardiovascular Diseases at the Mayo Clinic and we're going to discuss preventive strategies to maintain a healthy heart.

Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses the February 2025 issue of JACC, which focuses on advancements in heart failure research. The discussion covers five key sections: heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, cardiac amyloidosis, standardization of kidney function, and ICD therapy for primary prevention in heart failure patients. Experts explore emerging therapies, diagnostic thresholds, and the potential impact of blood pressure and genetics on patient outcomes, underscoring the need for comprehensive approaches in managing these complex conditions.

Welcome to "Ditch the Lab Coat," the podcast where we break down complex medical topics with leading experts shaping the future of healthcare. In today's episode, we're diving into the nuanced and critical conversation surrounding Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) with our distinguished guest, Dr. Susan Rich. With a career spanning decades, Dr. Rich is a trailblazer in child and adolescent psychiatry and an ardent advocate for public health. She's here to shine a light on prenatal alcohol exposure's often overlooked impacts on brain development. Did you know that not only alcohol consumed during pregnancy but even prior to conception can lead to multigenerational health issues? Dr. Rich unpacks how prevalent this is, affecting 1 in 20 children, yet remains largely unrecognized. Throughout our discussion, we'll explore systemic challenges, the myths perpetuated by the alcoholic beverage industry, and most importantly, the critical steps we need to take for prevention and support. Whether you're a healthcare professional, a parent, or just intrigued by one of public health's hidden crises, this episode promises to be both enlightening and empowering. Get ready for a thought-provoking journey as we seek a healthier future for the generations to come.Key Takeaways :The Hidden Impact of Alcohol on Fetal Development Dr. Susan Rich explains that fetal alcohol spectrum disorder affects approximately 1 in 20 children (5% of the population), with far-reaching consequences beyond the commonly known physical characteristics.Early Pregnancy Vulnerability Critical developmental impacts occur as early as the third to fourth week post-conception, often before women know they're pregnant. About 13.5% of childbearing age women in America binge drink, and approximately 50% of pregnancies are unplanned.Beyond Traditional Understanding While medical education traditionally focused on severe cases with facial deformities and intellectual disabilities, Dr. Rich reveals that only 10-15% of affected children show these classic features. The majority have neurodevelopmental issues without obvious physical signs.Male Factor Contribution Alcohol consumption by men up to three months before conception can affect sperm quality through epigenetic modifications, potentially making the embryo more susceptible to alcohol exposure during pregnancy.Economic and Social Impact The alcohol industry generates approximately $220 billion annually, while the cost of caring for just those with full fetal alcohol syndrome (not including the entire spectrum) was estimated at $5.4 billion as of 2003 data.Prevention and Treatment Approaches Dr. Rich advocates for better public health messaging, comprehensive support systems for affected children, and the need for healthcare providers to better understand and recognize the full spectrum of alcohol-related developmental disorders.03:14 - Alcohol's multigenerational impact explained.08:27 - Alcohol's epigenetic effects on offspring.13:17 - Unplanned pregnancies and fetal alcohol syndrome.15:33 - Neural crest and facial development.19:18 - Fetal alcohol, nutrition, and growth.23:04 - Dr. Kathleen Sulick's contributions.25:26 - Alcohol's impact on family events.28:38 - Alcohol's cultural role and societal effects.30:57 - Alcohol's toxicity and informed consent.34:05 - Liquor profits and education funding.37:35 - Rethinking alcohol's role in society.42:56 - Global epidemic: Fetal alcohol impact.45:05 - Supporting neurodivergent youth transitions.47:50 - Taxing alcohol to aid impoverished children.51:01 - Alcohol's Hidden Health Impacts.54:12 - Rethinking alcohol's impact on children.DISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.
