In part one of this two-part series, we discussed the Chinese Communist Party's overt attempt to completely destroy the culture and identity of millions of Uighur Muslims living in Western China. From arresting people in the middle of the night, to forcing them to attend reeducation camps for years, to their ruthless pursuit of limiting Uighur births through forced abortions and sterilization, the evidence is overwhelming that China's abuse of their own people is only getting worse. This week, we bring this horrific story closer to home by interviewing Ziba Murat, a Uighur woman who hasn't heard from or spoken to her mother in over two years. Since her mother's disappearance, it has surfaced that the Chinese Communist Party placed her in a concentration camp, and refuses to give updates or acknowledge her disappearance or when she will be released.Show Notes:Part 1: China's Campaign to Destroy an Entire EthnicityThe Radio Free Asia Article that Verifies Ziba's Mother Being Place In a Concentration Camp Ziba's Petition to Help Raise Awareness for Her MotherOlivia's New Repot: Why the U.S. Should Issue an Atrocity Determination for Uighurs See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

SHOW NOTES: PART 1: Hypertension in pregnancy is one of the worldwide leading causes of mortality, affecting 2-8% globally. That's 76,000 maternal and 500,000 infant deaths per year in the world. RISK FACTORS: Nulliparity Multiple gestation Size of placenta/multiple placentas Hx of preeclamsia HTN hx Gestational diabetes Thrombophilia Lupus Obesity before pregnancy Antiphospholipid aby syndrome Older pregnancy Kidney dz IVF OSA Exact mechanisms is unknown, but probably due to the placenta itself. Many theories exist, and there is a familial component. Physiology changes with pre-eclampsia. With pregnancy in general, blood volume increases by 50%. Most of which is serum. In preeclampsia, oncotic pressure in the blood vessels decreases, and fluid leaking occurs, hence edema. Kidneys also lose protein which aids in losing intravascular volume. Be cautious with IV hydration in preeclampsia. Intense vasospasm also occurs. Thrombocytopenia occurs due to overuse of platelets. Hemolysis occurs as well. Look for elevations of LDH and bilirubin. Schistocytes can be seen if you can find a microscope. Periportal necrosis leads to elevated AST>ALT. Coagulation factors won't produce as well either. In the kidney, protein leaks through porous glomeruli. Urine output will decrease due to intrarenal vasospam. Uric acid levels can help differentiate chronic vs new HTN in pregnancy. Less amniotic fluid and smaller fetus size occurs. Placental abruption may happen, in addition. PART 2: Gestational HTN is a BP of 140/90 (either or both) or greater. These must be noted on two separate occasions at least four hours apart. Diagnosed after 20 weeks of gestation in a woman with previously normal BP. Preeclampsia is the same criteria, along with proteinuria. 24-hour urine collection for protein is the historic best way to check. Protein: Creatinine ration is the easiest to do, though. 2+ protein on the urine dipstick may also suffice. Preeclampsia with severe features: BP 160/110 or both (= or >) on 2 occasions, 4 hrs apart. Or if you move to treating the BP, this would signify "severe" feature. Other features include: Mild HTN with platelets

Vaccines are Safe and Effective! It is the mantra we hear repeated whenever the discussion of vaccination comes up. The science is settled, is the one two punch of those seeking to drive home the point that there is no scientific proof that they cause neurological disorders. The conversation breaks down. It becomes an argument. People are called names. If it's on social media, others gang tackle on the dirty, stoopid Anti-Vaxxer and smother him with hate bombs. A friend of a friend sees their friend's friend he didn't know was also of a like mind, and jumps in to help this poor, defenseless soul. He's got a word document right on his desktop with a list of facts and resources he saves for just such an occasion. THE VIDEOS!! MY GOD THE VIDEOS this guy has are thought provoking. Really make you think. He has an idea, he @s a bunch of people he knows...fellow travelers. Together, they begin what will forever be known as the battle of Twitter Hill.  Did it have to come to this? No, they could have talked about it like adults. Try to find some common ground. Instead, they chose to yell over each other, and wish ill health and death upon close members of each others families.  Today will take a look at how people are influenced by thought leaders (doctors and politicians), and how they in turn treat those they believe are the enemy.    Show Notes: -Part 1 Manufactured Consent MD Suzanne Humphries 2015 -Tamron Hall Show on vaccinations -N.J.

SHOW NOTES: PART-2:   CASE 2: 69 yo female with 2 days of low back pain. Also some dark urine for about a week. She has some fatigue as well. No jaundice or bowel changes. She's not much of a drinker, minimal wine. PMH incudes obesity, hyperlipidemia and a prediabetic state. She take vitamins, calcium and glucosamine. No drugs and no significant family history. She's had about a 10 lb unintential weight loss. Also some early satiety. Her BMI is 32, but otherwise her VS and entire exam is normal. Additionally, she's been taking aspirin for her back pain. Laboratory eval reveals AST of 767,  ALT 818, and ALP 173. These are all modestly to significantly elevated. The AST and ALT are over 4 times upper limit of normal. Basically she's not really ill appearing at this point. Differential diagnosis at this point includes acute viral hepatitis. We must consider testing for A, B, C as well as EBV and CMV. These are IgM and IgG studies typically. Billiary obstruction and cirrhosis seems less likely in this case. Also not likely ETOH related. NASH is a possibility. We should also review her meds as a potential cause. Was she actually taking aspirin, or is she just calling it aspirin. Let's not forget some of the less common diseases like autoimmune hepatitis, Wilson's hemochromatosis and other rare infections. Right-sided heart failure may be an option. Hepatitis serologies, EBV, CMV, Tylenol level, iron and copper levels, ESR as well as PT/INR would be appropriate. CRP was a bit elevated at 11. Gamma globulins are obtained and noted to be elevated. The rest of the labs were all normal as well. A liver ultrasound reveals no abnormalities. A GI consult was obtained and it was felt this is a case of autoimmune hepatitis. Typically this is a dx of exclusion, and now that we've excluded a lot, we will shift to various autoimmune tests. ANA. This may be positive, however there are more specific tests for this condition, such as anti-smooth muscle, antimitochondrial, and anti liver-kidney microsomal antibodies, and various other antibody tests. Gamma globulins are also often elevated in AIH What is this condition? We don't fully know. There are several types of autoimmune hepatitis, however type-1 is the most common. It is actually not an entirely uncommon disease with a prevalence in Europe of 11 to 25 per 100,000. In the U.S., there is no exact data. One could infer that it would be similar. Ultimately, the body is attacking the liver for unclear reasons. Concurrent autoimmune thyroiditis can accompany this. A known hx of inflammatory bowel dz can predispose to this condition. Typically AST and ALT are 10-20 times upper limits of normal, usually therefore much higher than cirrhosis. Imaging is usually normal, unless the disease has advanced by the time diagnosis is made. Remission is not uncommon, upwards of 50 to 60%. Corticosteroids and azathioprine are common medications given for this. These can be tapered, and LFTs are rechecked on a regular basis throughout the taper and discontinuation of the medications. Sometimes, stronger immunosuppressants are needed. GI at minimum but sometimes hepatology referral is warranted for this diagnosis. Liver biopsy is often done for this condition. And indeed was on this patient which showed findings consistent with autoimmune hepatitis. Often, a degree of fibrosis is seen in AH. Well people, that's a wrap. for autoimmune hepatitis. Stay tuned for the final case presentation in the next segment, coming up shortly with Dr. McMichael here on Ridgeview Podcast CME series. CASE 3: So, the final caser is an 80 yo male with fever and confusion. He's high functioning at baseline, lives alone at home. He called his daughter and she noted he wasn't "acting himself". Altered mental status can be caused by many things, as we know. The differential diagnosis includes infection, hypoxia, metabolic derangement, toxin related, dementia, CNS lesions and so many more! This guy has a hx of CLL and type 2 DM, as well as HTN and BPH. Not a big drinker, about 1 to 2 beverages per day. He has a fever of 100.8. VS are normal otherwise. He's uncomfortable and restless appearing. Alert and oriented to person. Sepsis now is a big concern. What's causing it? He still has a gallbladder, but we need to know some more about his exam reveals not much more, other than tenderness in the epigastric and LUQ areas of the abdomen. Preliminary labs include normal UA, EBC 35.8, but remember the cLL hx. BMP unremarkable but a little dry with BUN 32. ALP is 256. AST and ALT are just bumped over normal. Lipase and trop are normal. Total bili is normal. So probable not ascending cholangitis. CXR was normal. So prompted a CT abdomen to rule out abdominal pathology. This revealed cholelithiasis. Compared to ultrasound, CT is not as helpful in terms of ruling out biliary obstruction, although often we will see pericholecystic inflammation. For cases of acute cholecystitis (AC), CT scan findings include the following: gallstones within the gallbladder (GB), the cystic duct, or both; more than 3mm of focal or diffuse thickening of the GB wall in a non-contracted GB; indistinct liver-GB interface; fluid in the GB fossa in the absence of ascites, enlargement of the GB, with the transverse diameter measuring more than 5 cm; infiltration of the surrounding fat; increased bile attenuation, caused by biliary sludge; and GB mucosal sloughing. At the same time, ultrasound is the gold standard. So this was done, and antibiotics were ordered. There is a non-mobile gallstone in the gallbladder neck. The CBD also has a small distal stone. He was admitted, taken to surgery for lap cholecystectomy and cholangiogram which confirmed the distal CBD stone. He was taken for ERCP and stenting the next day. In cholestatic presentations, the ALP is usually higher than AST and ALT. Serum bilirubin is not as helpful in delineating hepatocellular vs cholestatic picture. The Tokyo guidelines? Not widely used at this point. They're used to grade who needs to go to surgery first. In general, it's recommended to follow the American Anesthesiology guidelines for physical status. There are several grading systems, but there is little banter about this when it comes down to the decision to go to surgery or not. According to a paper in 2017 in the American Journal of Surgery by Madni et al, "Most grading scales which have been developed are used to predict the risk of conversion to an open cholecystectomy. There is a paucity in the literature of scoring systems to predict other metrics such as hospital length of stay, iatrogenic injury, and total operative time." HIDA scan can be done if there is no obvious stone, and whether you think this is truly gallbladder dysfunction and the patient should go to surgery, according to the World Society of Emergency Surgery Guidelines. Now, if this were a woman child-bearing age, while there could be a gallbladder etiology, always be sure to check a pregnancy test. HELLP syndrome must be considered. Fitz Hugh Curtis syndrome should also be considered in sexually active women with abdominal pain and elevated LFTs. Remember, especially in patients with altered mental status to keep your net cast wide. Our elderly patients are notorious for unusual presentations of common disease. Just a fair warning.

Planning committee members and presenter(s) have disclosed they have no significant financial relationship with a pharmaceutical company and have disclosed that no conflict of interest exists with the presentation/educational event. SHOW NOTES: PART 1: Alright, let's break down the first portion of this case discussion. This is a 60 yo male with chest pain for over a year. Intermittent aching and burning in right anterior chest, worse with activity and lately has worsened overall with a stressful job and strong family hx of heart disease. General exam ins unremarkable. ECG normal. HDL is 60 and LDL slightly up at 137. PFTs and CXR are normal.  Stress echo is normal.  Cardiology referral results in a low Ca++ score but some plaque in the LAD. Dr. Buckler, the cardiologist, feels this is ischemic heart disease until proven otherwise. Therefore, a coronary angiogram is necessary. Imaging has its limitations, as do stress tests. When the history still doesn't point in another explicable direction, we must follow the logic and most likely etiology, which is till coronary artery disease and ACS. One of the problems with stress tests in general, is there are limitations inherent. It's hard to miss the big stuff, but the more minor findings can be missed. With a high pretest probability, he could have perhaps gone straight to angio. In this case, though, he was started on a statin and aspirin. Per Dr. Buckler, Imdur could also have been given. Two year later, he comes in with headaches in the same area of the head since his wife recently passed away. He takes Advil for this. BP has been elevated at home. Dr. Jonathan Larson, family physician, questions the type of headache, it's location and possible etiologies. Is the Advil causing rebound headaches or contributing to the headaches? The elevated home blood pressures also need further investigation. His kidney function is temporarily normal. NSAIDs are d/c'd and Lisinopril is started. A month later, the headaches have improved. BP improved, but not tremendously. In addition, his chest pain has gone away. A new antihypertensive, a combo HCTZ/Lisinopril regimen is started. Although Amlodipine would have been a reasonable choice. A year later, he returns with the same chest pain on exertion. Normal ECG. Normal renal function too. He now goes back to a CT angiogram showing multi-vessel disease. Per Dr. Buckler, one of the reasons he has worsened on a statin is that we may have limited understanding of his pathology, or potentially the CTA was not accurate the first time. Virtual FFT now can show the flow and how significant the lesion is, which is an advancement in this technology. Unfortunately, despite aggressive lipid therapy, sometimes people progress. A few days after the CTA, his Creatinine goes up a bit and GFR goes to 43. This is also after years of Lisinopril. Dr. Carl Dean comments on this alteration in renal function. He feels this is not entirely unexpected, but the data doesn't really reflect CIN (contrast induced nephropathy). Yet intuitively and experientially, we sometimes see this. The amount of contrast used is significantly more on a CTA than on an invasive angio. At this point, the ACE inhibitor is held and Amlodipine is started. Renal function now has improved. The angiogram demonstrates significant 3 vessel disease, with good downstream targets. The SYNTAX surgical risk score directs the cardiologist toward CABG instead of PCI. Post angio, he develops some lower extremity edema, and he is discontinues on Amlodipine, resumed on the HCTZ, Lisinopril. The creatinine is now 2.4. Did he receive enough fluids for the angiogram? Or was the few hundred cc's he obtained during the angio okay? Again, hindsight is 20/20, but the data doesn't support a causality for AKI due to CIN, nor is there a true preventable measure, including n-acetylcysteine or bicarbonate. Perhaps, in this case, CIN as a possibility in the past as discussed, that many would not argue with overhydrating. Ultimately it was felt the ACE and contrast contributed to his creatinine elevation. The ACE combo is now stopped and he is started on Hydralazine and Metoprolol. Creatinine improves, and he goes into CABG surgery. He is discharged and he continues on aspirin and Plavix for 3 months, and Carvedilol and Hydralazine. Atorvastatin is increased to 80 mg daily, a more aggressive dose. EF is normal on echo.  Do statins affect kidney function positively or negatively? According to Dr. Dean, there is no trial that supports either. His BP starts to increase, and Lisinopril is once again added, along with an increase of creatinine, and the ACE is again d/c'd. HCTZ was added. Then spironolactone for ongoing HTN. He's still running high though. Labetalol is replacing carvedilol now. And the pressure is still running high. What is happening here? What to do next? Do we try Lisinopril again? It is attempted, and he once again fails the creatinine test. It goes up again. PART 2: What we do now for this patient? It seems he can only improve on Lisinopril for blood pressure, but his creatinine continues to go up. According to Dr. Dean, in this patient, Lisinopril may not be a great option going forward, not only due to creatinine increase, but it will not help him in terms of mortality outcome. renal artery stenosis is a concern in this case. Dr. Tara McMichael interjects the question, could a loop diuretic have been tried? With a creatinine of 2.3, a loop diuretic could have been an option, since volume and sodium retention could be contributing to the hypertension. Isosorbide with hydralazine is also an option if more meds were to be added. Per Dr. Buckler, however, a four drug regimen that is poorly controlling blood pressure doesn't necessarily indicate adding a fifth drug. We need to know if there is a secondary cause of HTN. Sometimes, even in the setting of renal artery stenosis, patients still require significant anti-HTN drug regimens. Also, per Dr. Dean, the pretest probability in this type of patient for renal artery disease is high. And will an intervention be desirable if it is found? The ASTRAL trial demonstrated no improvement in outcomes. The CORAL trial was also done and considered to be a negative trial. One of the trial criticisms though was that it didn't include patients with severe enough disease. According to Dr. Dean, refractory hypertension should cause screening for this and an intervention should be done if it is seen.  Our patient has a renal u/s that shows bilateral RAS. Dr. David Gross, radiologist discussed the results of the MRA. The aorta, SMA and celiac trunk show atherosclerosis. The renal arteries are paired bilaterally. They have moderate to high grade narrowing of the arteries. Dr. Buckler asks the question of the safety of gadolinium in renal disease. In the setting of low GFR, in other words, less than 30, the risk for nephrogenic systemic fibrosis exists, although very rare. This is usually fatal, though. Basically, he has 4 out of 4 arteries occluded. Dr. Dean feels referral to a center of excellence for this unique issue is best for the patient. He undergoes transaortic endarterectomy, as his creatinine is rapidly going up. A significant plaque is resected from the aorta which was extending into the renal arteries. Post-procedure, he is placed on metoprolol, requiring nothing further. Rosuvastatin, Zetia and baby aspirin is started. Basically, unclogging the pipes resulted in a cure. And a while later, he's no longer on any antihypertensives. Blood pressures are great now. LDL now 57 on the new cholesterol meds. Zetia has limited data, but the PcsK9 inhibitor and his LDL is now 1. Dr. Buckler states there is a lot of unknowns about the LDL levels and whether there is a point of diminishing returns, but the science is not there yet. In this case, Dr. Buckler feels that stopping the Zetia and continuing the pcksk9 inhibitor makes sense. PART 3: Renovascular HTN is more commonly found in the setting of acute, severe, refractory, very high blood pressure. Work-up is needed when there is a strong possibility of secondary cause, and in the absence of another secondary cause, like pheochromocytoma or hyperaldosteronism. Also in an acute rise in BP, a young age, elevated Cr after starting an ace inhibitor, etc. Renal asymmetry on imaging and flash pulmonary edema are other clues. If Cr and BP are stable in the setting of stenosis, no intervention is indicated. Testing can potentially worsen function, as can the interventions performed to treat the disease. Who benefits most? People with short term hx of HTN, people who fail optimal medical therapy, not tolerating medical therapy and progressive renal failure. Ultrasound and CTA or MRA are the options for work-up. US is cheaper, but time consuming and operator dependent, with modest sensitivity/specificity. CTA is accurate for atherosclerosis. Highly sensitive and better if GFR below 30. MRA is highly sens/spec. Gadolinium complications can ensue in low GFR situations. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors (PCSK9) will lower LDL up to 60%. 50% decease in stroke and MI risk. The PCSK9 enzyme binds to liver LDL receptors and thereby increases plasma LDL levels. so inhibiting this enzyme leads to a lower LDL level. These inhibitors also can decrease triglycerides, increase HDL somewhat and decrease the volume of atheroma. Low adverse effects are noted with the med as well. Regarding renovascular HTN, Dr. Dean also reminds us that someone who is significantly older with chronic renal ischemia in the setting of this disease, may not have improvement in renal function even after intervention. Therefore, some of these patients who suddenly reperfuse a chronically ischemic kidney may actually worsen. Renal artery stenosis is also not an absolute contraindication for ACE. Such as in low EF heart failure. If the creatinine markedly rises, it can be discontinued again. Fibromuscular dysplasia patients, unlike atherosclerosis patients, should all receive an intervention. This is more commonly found in younger patients. Dr. Buckler addresses the ease of use and cost of the PCSK9 inhibitors. It turns out the cost is high at this point, up to $14k/year. But coverage has shown promise in FH and refractory high LDL. As it was alluded to by Dr. Holcomb, the patient really doesn't exercise and has a very stressful job, as it turns out. His dies wasn't discussed. Was he managing his risk factors very well? What does that mean nowadays? We have potent medications and skillful intervention options for reacting to this sort of pathology nowadays, but where are we at with prevention? Hopefully a conversation for another day.

Today we’re going to break down the communication techniques of Steven Furtick.

Part 2: The dudes interview the one and only Peggy Brookins, President and CEO of NBPTS. * What should we know and hear from you about possibly attaining national boards?  * In some of NBPTS' published research findings, researchers examined the distribution of board certified teachers in six states—California, Florida, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio and South Carolina. It was noted that except for California, "board certified teachers are not equitably distributed across schools that serve different populations of students. In five of the six states examined, poor, minority, and lower-performing students are far less likely to have the opportunity to benefit from the teaching of a National Board certified teachers than are their more affluent, majority, and higher-performing peers." As president and CEO, what is your vision to address this inequity? * Are their formal/informal ways that district/school leaders can support teachers? * Using your magic wand, what would you like to have happen federally in regard to education policy?

Alyssa brought up this topic and how she wanted to discuss it on our next episode. So here it is! Words! They are so powerful and can do such big things. Join us to find our take and our experience with the power of words.    Shownotes: Part 3 Overwhelmed By My Blessings Encouragement For Moms day 3 (Found on the BIBLE app) James 1:19 Proverbs 18:21 Zechariah 3

How would you walk through your days if you knew you had the perfect Dad? When things get bumpy, would you worry and strive and rely on yourself – or would you endure with confidence that you could always count on your Dad to step in? I wonder how all of our lives would be different if we lived in the confidence that God is the perfect dad. How brave would we be? How much more grace and goodwill might we be willing to extend? What might we be willing to risk for our Big God Dreams, knowing that our Dad was always there to help? Last week we explored how our relationships with our fathers affect our relationship with our Heavenly Father. Today on the podcast we dig deeper into how our dads’ personalities shape how we perceive God’s personality. If you’ve ever felt like God is distant or uncaring, I hope you listen in and know that God loves you passionately and personally. That His heart is full of love for you, and that when you are able to look at Him clearly, without any distortion, you will always see a proud-Dad smile beaming back at you.

Some of our episodes are inspirational in nature, and some are instructive. This one is both. You can’t help but be amazed by what the National Children’s Chorus is doing with their 800 students in 18 ensembles based in 3 major cities. Artistic Director Luke McEndarfer discusses what is ahead for this world-class chorus. But also, you get to hear the logistics behind commissioning an original work. Emmy nominated composer Sharon Farber describes her collaboration with the NCC, and discusses the upcoming premiere of “Children of Light.” And listen all the way to the end, because Luke and Sharon unlock the key elements of a successful chorus!     Listen   [Subscribe on iTunes] [Subscribe on Android]   Highlight to Tweet: “Children of peace and grace, their song...unlocks the aching heart of the world.” - Sharon Farber    “Joy and desire are where we start for everything.” - Luke McEndarfer   Show Notes: Part of the mission of the National Children’s Chorus is to commission new works for children’s chorus. Most recent commission was completed by noted composer Sharon Farber. NCC Season - “Winter Dream” performances coming up, featuring concepts of darkness and light. How children can remain a light in the world through music. Commissioning a work that goes along with this theme: why Sharon was interested in this collaboration. How she approached writing this new piece, “Children of Light”, in Hebrew. Compositional styles and considerations taken when writing for children. Plans for world and East Coast premieres at Royce Hall in LA and Lincoln Center in NYC this December. Why it’s important to create new quality works for children by living composers. Most important qualities for a chorister are joy in singing and a strong desire to be there. Most important qualities in a conductor are skill in the art of conducting, experience playing an instrument, engaging personality, love of music.   Bio: The National Children’s Chorus of the United States, under the leadership of Artistic Director Luke McEndarfer, is quickly establishing itself as one of the world’s leading treble choruses, with nearly 700 students in 18 ensembles, based in Los Angeles, New York City, and Washington, D.C. Collaborating with some of the finest music companies in the nation, the group has performed live with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Los Angeles Opera Company, Los Angeles Master Chorale, Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, Joffrey Ballet, Kronos String Quartet, New York City Master Chorale and American Youth Symphony, among others. Its groundbreaking Season 2017/18, entitled Building Bridges, features exquisite repertoire including notable commissions and premieres at Walt Disney Concert Hall, Royce Hall, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center and the Kennedy Center. In July of 2018, the chorus will make its 4th major international tour to Germany, Austria, Czech Republic and Hungary.

We begin this episode with an in-depth discussion about Denise Bryson lead by this week’s guest Bismuth Hoban. Bismuth is a non-binary trans philosopher and elegant nerd who also joins us to break down Part 7 and make a lot of excellent points. Shownotes: Part 7 discussion begins at 17:30. Thank you Diane, we now require an explicit language warning. The ingenious discovery about the 430Hz tone that plays when the Monochrome Mendicant turns up in the Buckhorn Morgue that Andy mentions was posted on Instagram and Twitter by Jill Watson (aka @pie4jill). Thank you Jill. Yes, Jesse Johnson who plays Diane’s “Younger Man”, IS the half brother of Dakota Johnson.
