Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions This episode dives into the complex relationship between migraines and hormonal changes, particularly focusing on estrogen. The discussion covers the prevalence of migraines, the distinction between migraines with and without aura, and the significant impact of reproductive hormones on migraine patterns, especially in women. Key topics include the discovery of the estrogen threshold, the influence of estrogen on neurotransmitter systems like serotonin and glutamate, and the potential of hormone-based treatments. The episode also examines the role of the trigeminal vascular system, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), and the impact of oral contraceptives on migraine frequency and intensity. Practical strategies for managing menstrual migraines and the importance of using headache diaries for accurate diagnosis are highlighted.00:00 Introduction to Migraines00:20 Types of Migraines and Auras00:42 Sex Differences in Migraine Prevalence00:59 Hormonal Influence on Migraines01:53 Estrogen's Role in Menstrual Migraines02:05 Historical Breakthroughs in Migraine Research02:35 Estrogen Threshold and Migraine Triggers04:10 Estrogen's Impact on Brain Function07:29 Neurotransmitters and Migraine Pathways11:15 Oxytocin and Migraine Prevention13:20 Trigeminal Vascular System and Migraines16:46 Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide and Inflammation20:38 Oral Contraceptives and Migraine Management24:59 The Importance of Headache Diaries26:45 Conclusion and Future Research 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.* ...

Tendons are part of a muscle-tendon-bone complex. Tendon strain is the relative change in length compared to its original length. Tendons have their own metabolism, albeit at a lower scale than muscles. The hierarchical structure of tendons serves to protect against stress. Tendon stiffness can increase with load and speed of movement. Creep occurs under constant load, affecting tendon length over time. Mechanotransduction requires time for effective cellular response. Pediatric tendon development may lead to imbalances with muscle strength. Strength training is more effective for tendon adaptation than plyometrics. Tendon behavior involves both elasticity and viscosity simultaneously. There is a sweet spot for tendon strain duration, ideally between 3 to 15 seconds. Longer isometric holds may not benefit healthy tendons. Blood flow restriction (BFR) may not have unique benefits over traditional training. Tendon compliance can be improved by reducing resistance training. Passive stretching may yield some adaptation in untrained individuals. Training age influences tendon stiffness and adaptation. Sex differences exist in tendon adaptation, with females gaining stiffness at lower force levels. The relationship between training volume and tendon adaptation is complex and requires more research. Understanding how tendons perceive strain is crucial for future studies.    Notes: https://jackedathlete.com/podcast-130-tendons-with-gerard-mcmahon/

The scientific literature has shown that females demonstrate more aversion to risk-taking than males. Studies have also demonstrated that the basal lateral amygdala, or BLA, is a critical hub for processing risk and reward information. And yet further research has shown that activity in the amygdala differs between males and females, and that the expression of particular dopamine receptors called D2 receptors are greater in females than in males. The authors hypothesized that one mediating mechanism that leads to greater risk aversion in females is differential activity of dopamine in the basal lateral amygdala.

In 2022, women in the United States earn 82 cents for every dollar men earn. This has been called the Gener Wage Gap or the Gender Pay Gap. This gap appears to be potentially higher for women physicians, and persists even after controlling for age, experience, specialty and other factors. Over a simulated 40 year career, women physician are estimated to earn $2 million less than male physicians. Women are also more likely to decrease work or give up work in order to take care of children. This puts women at a disadvantage for building wealth compared to men. This episode explores the evidence behind the gender pay gap and talks about things you can start doing now to close the gap for yourself.  ReferencesUS Census Bureauhttps://www.gao.gov/products/gao-23-106041 US Census Bureau Diversity in Medicine: Facts and Figures 2019 Figure 12.

Send us a Text Message.In this episode of the Incubator, At the bench, we talk with Dr. Krithika Lingappan who is a neonatologist and physician-scientist at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the University of Pennsylvania. Join us as we hear what inspired Dr. Lingappan to build her cutting-edge research program investigating sex-specific differences in preterm lung disease. She explains that every cell in the lung shows sex bias, including epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and immune cells. She explores the role of the X and Y chromosomes in determining susceptibility to lung diseases and the ongoing research to understand the dosage of the X chromosome and genes on the Y chromosome. Dr. Lingappan also discusses the use of multi-omics approaches, such as single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, to study lung development and disease. We are fortunate to learn from her experiences including finding mentorship, building a research career that addresses a common clinical question, and establishing and then moving a research group. Dr. Lingappan also discusses her work promoting neonatology physician-scientist career development. We are thrilled to bring you this inside look into what it takes to become a neonatology physician-scientist!As always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

“So it's not that our brain constrains the activities we can engage in and the behaviors that we have. It's the other way around. The behaviors we engage in change the brain we have.” Dr. Victoria Leavitt is an assistant professor of neuropsychology at Columbia University who studies brain resilience, brain reserve, and cognitive reserve, companion theories that help us understand individual differences in our ability to maintain brain function over the lifespan. She and Rebecca discuss the arc of evolution, the effect biologial dictates have on our brains, the challenges of thinking about difference, and the promise (and limits) of precision medicine.   Mentioned in this episode: E.

Commentary by Dr. Valentin Fuster

Talking points: evolution, psychology, relationships, sexuality The field of evolutionary psychology has been on my mind a lot lately, but it can be hard to separate the real science from the stuff with an agenda. To that end, I sat down with David C. Geary to dig into the basics, and how even a little knowledge about things like sexual dimorphism and intrasexual aggression can bring a better understanding to modern relationships. Listen to this one if you want a solid intro to the existence and effects evolution might have on selecting a partner, friendships, overall culture, and more. (00:00:00) - Intro, defining evolutionary psychology, and what it has to offer in the context of modern relationships(00:04:59) - The main pillars of sexual selection(00:09:01) - Describing human sexual dimorphism, brain differences, and possible evolutionary benefits (00:21:07) - Why boys tend to be more interested in how objects work in space(00:28:22) - Why would men have evolved a larger lung capacity? (00:30:38) - We don't compete for mates in the same ways anymore, but are attraction cues the same?(00:35:06) - Defining intrasexual aggression(00:44:28) - The evolutionary case for vulnerability(00:49:28) - David's take on modern dating(00:56:29) - What an evolutionary vulnerability really means(01:02:25) - How are dating and relationships going to shift in the future? David C. Geary is a cognitive scientist and evolutionary psychologist with interests in mathematical cognition and learning as well as the biological bases of sex differences. After receiving his Ph.D. in 1986 from the University of California at Riverside, he held faculty positions at the University of Texas at El Paso and the University of Missouri, first at the Rolla campus and then in Columbia. Dr. Geary is currently a Curators' Distinguished Professor and a Thomas Jefferson Fellow in the Department of Psychological Sciences and Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program. Dr. Geary has written four sole-authored books; Children's mathematical development (1994), Male, female: The evolution of human sex differences (1998, second edition, 2010, third edition 2021), The origin of mind: Evolution of brain, cognition, and general intelligence (2005), and Evolution of vulnerability: Implications for sex differences in health and development (2015), as well as one co-authored book, Sex differences: Summarizing more than a century of scientific research (Ellis et al., 2008).

Some sports use different rules and equipment in the women's game; some do not. We consider the distinction through the lenses of professional football and rugby. Scientific questions of relative performance lead to those of player safety, and ultimately to philosophy: what do varying opinions about changing women's game reveal about the purpose of sport in society?Arve Vorland Pedersen, a sports scientist at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, calculates how football's pitches and equipment might scale to account for physiological differences. Ross Tucker, a consultant for World Rugby, describes how a trial of a smaller ball might change the game's mechanics. Lauren Heria, a professional footballer, explains why such meddling is seen as disrespectful by many players. And Emelia Funnell, a researcher at Ida Sports, reveals why ignorance about ACL injuries among women traces back to male cadavers.
