Did you know that congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) is the most common congenital viral infection in newborns and a leading cause of non-genetic hearing loss? Despite its prevalence, awareness and screening for cCMV remain inconsistent across healthcare systems. In this episode, we dive into the critical importance of cCMV screening, early diagnosis, and intervention. Join our expert guests Dr. Ingrid Camelo and Dr. John Noel as they discuss: The impact of cCMV on neonatal and long-term health outcomes Best practices for screening and diagnostic methods The role of early intervention, including antiviral therapy How advocacy efforts are shaping the future of universal screening policies Tune in to stay informed on how pediatricians and healthcare providers can play a vital role in improving outcomes for infants affected by cCMV.

Send us a textIn this episode of the Gut Feelings podcast, Ashley and Danielle talk with Dr. Bincy Abraham, an expert in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Dr Abraham shares her experience and insight into the complexities of managing IBD. Bincy P. Abraham is the Distinguished Professor and Director of the Fondren Inflammatory Bowel Disease Program at the Underwood Digestive Diseases Center of Houston Methodist Hospital. She is also the Program Director for the Gastroenterology Fellowship at Houston Methodist Hospital. She earned her medical degree from University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX, where she continued with residency training in internal medicine and fellowship in gastroenterology. During fellowship, she received specialized training in inflammatory bowel disease and earned her degree in Masters of Clinical Investigation. She also completed a National Visiting Fellow Inflammatory Bowel Disease Rotation program through the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation in Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles. She has chaired the Southern Regional chapter of the CCFA Medical Advisory Committee, served as president of the Texas Gulf Coast Gastroenterology Society, is involved in national committees for and is a Fellow of the American College of Gastroenterology, American Gastroenterology Association, American Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, and Crohn's and Colitis Foundation. She is trained in and passionate about intestinal ultrasound in IBD patient care. Dr. Abraham discusses the importance of nutrition and emphasizes the need for patient empowerment. She also addresses common patient concerns regarding treatments and nutritional deficiencies. A big takeaway for us is: We don't have to suffer as IBD patients. There are options now that weren't available even 10 years ago that can significantly improve patient's quality of life and decrease the risk of complications with IBD. We discuss:how nutrition plays a crucial role in managing IBDhow dietary restrictions can be challenging and can lead to nutritional deficienciessome treatment options available now, including combining therapies that can improve outcomeshow active inflammation poses significant health riskspatient empowerment is essential in IBD managementwhat Dr Abraham tells patients that may be hesitant to try IBD medicationregular nutritional assessments are vital for IBD patientsmental health is an important aspect of IBD careWant to work with The Crohn's and Colitis Dietitians but have questions?Book a call - HEREMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/the-lakes/bluebirdLicense code: FTTITUEPIFFollow us on instagram @crohns_and_colitis_dietitiansFollow us on youtube @thecrohnscolitisdietitiansWe love helping provide quality content on IBD nutrition and making it more accessible to all through our podcast, instagram and youtube channel.

Unlock the secrets of the brain's most enigmatic conditions with Dr. Mauro Montalbano, our esteemed guest from the University of Texas Medical Branch. He takes us on a journey through his lab's cutting-edge research into neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and ALS. You'll gain a deep understanding of the sinister role played by protein aggregates, particularly amyloid beta and tau proteins, and their prion-like behavior that drives the progression of Alzheimer's disease. Dr. Montalbano's journey from Sicily to Galveston adds a personal touch to his pioneering efforts in neuroscience, underscoring the critical need to decipher early-stage processes in disease progression.Our discussion ventures into the unpredictable realm of Alzheimer's, illustrated by a compelling family story that highlights the disease's capricious nature. Despite shared genetics and lifestyle, one sister succumbs to Alzheimer's while the other lives a long life, challenging our understanding of its onset. We examine the ongoing focus on amyloid plaques and the vital roles of microglia and astrocytes in regulating protein buildup in the brain. The conversation also taps into the mysteries of cognitive resilience among certain individuals and how current therapies aim to reduce inflammation as a strategy to slow progression.We further explore the intricate link between vascular health and Alzheimer's, where factors like atherosclerosis, sleep quality, and auditory health are potential culprits of cognitive decline. Dr. Montalbano guides us through the complexities of treating late-stage Alzheimer's and the promise of early intervention and preventative strategies. In a world increasingly focused on personalized medicine, he sheds light on the challenges and potential breakthroughs on the horizon, while also pondering the possible long-term impacts of COVID-19 on dementia prevalence. This episode promises to enlighten and challenge your understanding of these profound neurological puzzles.Thanks for listening to the Infectious Science Podcast.

"I have endometriosis and adenomyosis, which has fueled my need to advocate for women with chronic pain conditions.

Lisa is currently 1 of 3 Certified KickPink Practitioners in Texas and the only in the DFW area, trained to help prevent and alleviate side effects of breast cancer treatment. She is currently treating survivors with stage 0-1 lymphedema. Lisa found her passion for pelvic health after the birth of her daughter and her own diagnosis with endometriosis.
