Episode 199: Essential Screenings for Young AdultsDr. Lopez presents the most important screening tests for young adults. Dr. Arreaza adds some input on screening for depression and anxiety. Written by Alejandra Lopez, MD. Edits by Hector Arreaza, MD. Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program. You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Dr. Lopez: Screening is testing done to help identify disease in a person or population that typically appears healthy. Our goal as clinicians is to see which children are at increased risk of disease and will merit additional testing. For clinicians, testing should be both easy to perform and interpret. Now let's talk about prevention in young adults.Dr. Arreaza: I can see it is important to talk about young adults because that population may be very hesitant to go to the doctor, in general. Tell us more about it.Dr. Lopez: We all know that early detection and prevention are key, but many young adults skip routine check-ups. Why is that? Sometimes it's lack of awareness, fear, or just not knowing where to start. That's why today, we'll focus on four key screenings that every adolescent and young adult should know about.The Annual Physical ExamDr. Arreaza: I'm excited to talk about it. Many young adults only see a doctor when they're sick, but screenings help catch issues early, sometimes before symptoms even appear. Tell us about the annual wellness exams and why they matter.Dr. Lopez: Let's start with the basics—annual wellness exams. Many young people don't feel the need to see a doctor if they're feeling fine. So, these check-ups are important because many serious health conditions start silently, meaning no symptoms at first. Dr. Arreaza: What do we look for in an annual exam?Dr. Lopez: An annual check-up:· It is important to track growth and development (especially important for adolescents)It also helps monitor blood pressure, weight, and BMI to help find out who is at risk for elevated or low BP, underweight or overweight/obesity, by analyzing both weight and body mass index.· Discuss lifestyle habits like diet, exercise, and sleep· Evaluate whether you are up to date on vaccinations or due for age-appropriate vaccines.· Address any mental health concernsIt's also a great opportunity for young people to establish a relationship with a provider they trust. This makes it easier to discuss sensitive topics like sexual health or mental health.Dr. Arreaza: So, you say that the annual physical exam helps identify all these issues early, and at the same time, you establish a relationship of trust with a doctor who you may need at any time. STI ScreeningDr. Arreaza: That brings us to our second key screening: testing for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). There are many STIs. Let's focus on gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Dr. Lopez, can you breakit  down for us? Who needs STI screening, and why is it so important?Dr. Lopez: Absolutely. The CDC recommends that ALL sexually active women under age 25 get screened for chlamydia and gonorrhea annually. HIV testing should also be done at least once for all young adults and annually for those at higher risk. Why is this the case? Because Many STIs have no symptoms, but untreated infections can lead to serious complications like infertility or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women. The good news is that these infections are easily treatable if caught early. If caught later in life, then women and men alike are at risk for worse conditions. Dr. Arreaza: Let's talk about how do we do it?Dr. Lopez: STI screening is simple:· For chlamydia and gonorrhea, it's usually a urine test or a vaginal/cervical/oral swab.· For HIV, it's a quick blood test or even an oral swab.Many young adults avoid testing because of fear, stigma, or concerns about privacy, but most clinics offer confidential or even anonymous testing. Doctors do not share any information regarding the minor or young adult or any patient for that matter. AND if we are requested to share any information with others- then it is our obligation as doctors to ALWAYS ASK THE PATIENT before sharing ANY health information with third parties/other entitiesDr. Arreaza: And that includes parents of minors. Doctors are not allowed to discuss STI test results with parents of minors unless they are authorized by the patient or if the patient is in danger, for example, if this is a result of sexual abuse.Mental Health ScreeningsDr. Arreaza: Now, let's talk about something that's just as important as physical health—mental health. Depression and anxiety are very common in young people, but many don't seek help. How do doctors screen for depression?Dr. Lopez: Screening for depression is now a standard part of primary care. The most commonly used tool is the PHQ-9 questionnaire, which asks about:· Mood changes (sadness, hopelessness)· Loss of interest in activities· Sleep disturbances· Changes in appetite· Difficulty concentratingA score on this test can help determine whether someone is at risk of depression and needs further evaluation or support.Dr. Arreaza: And why should we screen for depression?Dr. Lopez: Because early treatment makes a huge difference. Depression can affect school, work, relationships, and even physical health. But with therapy, lifestyle changes, and sometimes medication, people can and do recover.I always tell young adults: Mental health is just as important as physical health. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.Dr. Arreaza: This is a USPSTF recommendation GRADE B. We are encouraged to screen adults, including pregnant and postpartum women, as well as older adults.HPV Screening & VaccinationDr. Lopez: Dr. Arreaza, finally, let's talk about HPV—one of the most preventable causes of cancer. The human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common STI worldwide, and it's responsible for almost all cases of cervical cancer, as well as throat, anal, and penile cancers. The good news? The HPV vaccine is over 90% effective at preventing these cancers. Dr. Arreaza: In fact, from 2015 to 2018, U.S. women ages 14 to 19 experienced an 88% decrease in HPV-related disease. That's a direct result of the vaccine's effectiveness.Dr. Lopez: It's recommended for:· All boys and girls, starting at the age of 9. ACIP gave new recommendations for use of a 2-dose schedule for girls and boys who initiate the vaccination series at ages 9-14 years. Three doses remain recommended for persons who start HPV vaccination at ages 15-26 years and for immunocompromised persons.· Catch-up vaccination is recommended for people up to age 26 (and in some cases, up to 45 with provider recommendation)Dr. Arreaza: And what about screening for HPV? How do we screen?Dr. Lopez: Great question, Dr. Arreaza. Pap smears start at age 21, for all women regardless of sexual activity, and are repeated every 3-5 years depending on HPV testing. Many people think Pap smears check for STIs, but they actually look for abnormal cervical cells that could lead to cancer. HPV vaccination plus routine screening means cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers today!Closing Thoughts & Call to ActionDr. Arreaza: That wraps up today's discussion on essential health screenings for young adults! Dr. Lopez, any final take-home messages?Guest: My biggest message is don't wait until something is wrong to see a doctor. Preventative care is simple, quick, and can save lives.If you're between the ages of 13-26, here's what you should do:-Get an annual wellness exam-Get tested for STIs if sexually active-Check in on your mental health and talk to someone if you need support-Get the HPV vaccine if you haven't already and follow up on screeningTaking these small steps today leads to better health for years to come!Host: That's fantastic! Dr. Lopez. I hope all our primary care providers can take these easy steps to keep our young community healthy.

In a gripping episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke delves into the psychological and moral ramifications of high-profile criminal cases. Dreeke explores the potential for redemption in individuals whose legacies have been tarnished by their actions, using the hypothetical case of a famous figure, referred to as "Diddy," facing severe public and personal downfall. He discusses the psychological strain and suicidal tendencies that might arise in such situations, particularly when a person's legacy is at stake. Dreeke posits that while narcissists rarely commit suicide, the intense pressure and isolation Diddy faces could push him to the brink. Dreeke suggests a path to redemption, where Diddy owns his actions, seeks genuine transformation, and dedicates his life to serving others without any personal gain. This transformation, though unlikely, could potentially shift public perception and inspire others. The conversation touches on the authenticity of such a shift, the pain involved in genuine redemption, and the inspirational impact it could have. Dreeke reflects on historical examples of individuals who have turned their lives around in similar ways, emphasizing the power of transparency, service, and selflessness in achieving true redemption. ### Main Points - Robin Dreeke discusses the psychological impact and suicide risk for high-profile individuals facing severe public scrutiny and personal downfall. - Dreeke highlights the potential for redemption through owning one's actions, seeking transformation, and dedicating life to serving others selflessly. - He emphasizes that genuine redemption requires suffering, transparency, and lack of self-interest. - The conversation explores whether such a transformation would be authentic or merely a self-serving act to repair an image. - Dreeke reflects on historical examples of individuals who have redeemed themselves and inspired others. - He outlines a roadmap of redemption, focusing on transparency, openness, and service to others without seeking personal gain. - Dreeke acknowledges the low likelihood of such transformations but underscores their inspirational power if they occur. ### Relevant Hashtags #RobinDreeke #TonyBrueski #Redemption #Psychology #Narcissism #SuicideRisk #PublicScrutiny Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

https://swiy.co/WhatAreYourThoughtsTRIGGER WARNING: Please note that this episode contains a discussion of suicide, self-injurious behavior, depression and/or reference of other mental health disorders that may act as triggers.In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Lia Gaggino invites Dr. Lisa Horowitz back to the mic to discuss important aspects of suicide prevention programs and validation studies. They specifically focus on the role of pediatricians in identifying and supporting young people who may be at risk. They introduce the Brief Suicide Safety Assessment (BSSA), a tool that can help in these situations. Dr. Horowitz emphasizes the importance of using appropriate language when discussing suicidality with parents, offering a valuable perspective that can change how we approach this sensitive topic. This episode serves as a reminder of how crucial it is for caregivers to provide guidance, support, and reassurance to children, and to make them aware of available resources when facing challenges. Just like we talk to our children about topics such as safe sex or drugs and alcohol, discussing resilience should also be an ongoing conversation. Caregivers must equip children with coping mechanisms rooted in resilience to prepare them for the future. So together, let's create a community where children feel safe to ask questions, without fear of judgment or stigma. By investing time today in building resilient kids, we can nurture a generation capable of overcoming any hurdles they may encounter tomorrow.
