Rock climbers often experience finger injuries due to overtraining. Finger tendons are unique in their anatomy and function compared to other tendons. Tenosynovitis is a common injury among climbers, often due to too much stress too soon. Rehabilitation for finger injuries should focus on gradual load increase and proper technique. The A2 pulley is crucial for finger movement and is often injured in climbers. Climbers need to be aware of the specific loads their fingers endure during training. Managing climbing volume is essential to prevent injuries in climbers. The tendon sheath plays a vital role in the health of finger tendons. Understanding the mechanics of finger tendons can aid in better training and injury prevention. Power loss is a key metric in understanding climbing performance. Beginners should focus on skill development rather than overloading their fingers. Body weight significantly affects the load on tendons during climbing. Lifelong loading is crucial for tendon adaptations in climbers. Climbers often underload their tendons during rehabilitation, leading to prolonged recovery. Strength training is essential for injury prevention and performance enhancement in climbing. Tendon adaptations require significant muscle load and proper joint positioning. Controversial training methods are gaining popularity, but their efficacy is debated. Ultrasound is the gold standard for diagnosing climbing injuries and assessing tendon health. There is a growing interest in climbing research, leading to better understanding and treatment of climbing-related injuries.

Cattle Industry News Trump's Tariffs Trigger Chinese Retaliation, Impacting U.S. Meat Exports President Donald Trump ordered new tariffs on Chinese goods, raising total duties to 104% starting Wednesday in response to China's retaliation against earlier U.S. measures. In return, China imposed steep tariffs on U.S. meat—56% on beef and 81% on pork—effective Thursday, according to the U.S. Meat Export Federation. This move threatens a major market, as China and Hong Kong were the third-largest U.S. pork buyers at $1.14 billion and the second-largest for beef at nearly $2 billion last year. Meanwhile, Mexico—America's top pork buyer—has not yet responded to separate U.S. tariffs outside the USMCA agreement.

In this episode of the SCCM Podcast, host Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, is joined by Heather Meissen, DNP, FCCM, to discuss the importance to nurses of publication and navigating the academic publishing process. They discuss how nurses at the bedside are uniquely positioned to identify trends and gaps in patient care that can be addressed through research and publication. This podcast aims to raise awareness for nurses and other critical care practitioners wanting to enter the research and publishing fields. This unique professional development topic is designed for healthcare workers at the beginning of their research and publishing journeys. Dr. Meissen stresses that publishing is vital for advancing nursing practice and improving patient care, urging clinicians to “just get started” on their research and writing journeys. She emphasizes the importance of finding a mentor to help refine research questions, structure projects, and navigate challenges. She provides practical advice on identifying a research topic, conducting a literature review, and selecting the appropriate journal for submission. The discussion also highlights imposter syndrome among new writers and how overcoming self-doubt is crucial to getting published. The conversation touches on the peer review process, including how to handle feedback constructively and spot predatory journals that seek publication fees without legitimate editorial oversight. Dr. Meissen also discusses the role of AI in writing and research, cautioning against its misuse while acknowledging its potential benefits. Finally, she encourages nurses to participate in the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Reviewer Academy, which aims to train a community of trusted, skilled, and diverse peer reviewers to perform high-quality reviews for the SCCM journals (Alexander P, et al. Crit Care Med. 2023;51:1111-1123). Learn more about the SCCM Reviewer Academy at sccm.org/journals. Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, is a neurocritical care nurse practitioner at University of Florida Health Jacksonville.

It’s one of the greatest joys of being pregnant: getting an ultrasound, to see a picture of your unborn child’s face. But now many medical experts are sounding the alarm about the increasingly popular trend of so-called “reassurance” ultrasounds. These are scans that pregnant women frequently opt for, not only to get a chance to see their child, but also to allay anxieties over their baby’s health, or just nab a souvenir image. But in some cases, these scans have led to stillbirths, late-term abortions and incorrect diagnoses. Today, senior health reporter Henrietta Cook, on why these scans have sometimes led to heartbreaking outcomes, and the push to regulate sonographers.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It might not be Pi Day anymore, but Elliot and Dan got together for the approximately 100*Pi-th episode of the Podcast to run through the week's coolest hacks. Ultrasound seemed to be one of the themes, with a deep dive into finding bugs with sonar as well as using sound to cut the cheese -- and cakes and pies, too. The aesthetics of PCBs were much on our minds, too, from full-color graphics on demand to glow-in-the-dark silkscreens. Is automation really needed to embed fiber optics in concrete? Absolutely! How do you put plasma in a bottle? Apparently, with kombucha, Nichrome, and silicone. If you need to manage your M:TG cards, scribble on the walls, or build a mechanical chase light, we've got the details. And what exactly is a supercomputer? We can't define it, but we know one when we see it. Check out all the links over at Hackday!

Dr. Neal Kassell, Founder and Chairman of the Focused Ultrasound Foundation,  is working to raise awareness and drive the utilization of focused ultrasound to treat a wide range of medical conditions. This non-invasive technology uses medical imaging to precisely target and treat tissue deep in the body. Focused ultrasound has multiple mechanisms of action and can be used for destroying tumors, modulating neural activity, delivering drugs, and stimulating the immune system. Neal explains, "So focused ultrasound is a new, totally non-invasive therapeutic technology, and it's the intersection of medical imaging, which is either ultrasound or MR imaging, which is used to identify the portion of the body that we want to treat to plan the treatment, and then to guide the treatment. Then, the focused ultrasound technology delivers the energy that treats the tissue. The way it works is analogous to using a magnifying glass to focus beams of light and burn a hole in a leaf." "But at that focal point where all the beams converge, we now understand 30 ways ultrasound can affect tissue. That's in contrast to, for instance, radiation therapy, which is only one mechanism of action. Or a surgical robot, which is one mechanism of action. Focused Ultrasound has at least 30 mechanisms of action, including destroying tissue at that focal point by a variety of mechanisms,  stimulating or blocking neural activity in the brain called neuromodulation, and delivering drugs or other therapeutic agents precisely to a point in the body where they are needed. This increases both the effectiveness and decreases the systemic side effects, stimulates the body's immune response to tumor, and to the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy agents." "The point in the body where the ultrasound is targeted is, as I said, previously guided and controlled by medical imaging, either ultrasound or MR imaging. Now, the fact that there are so many different mechanisms of action creates the opportunity to treat a wide variety of medical disorders. Today, around the world, there are more than 180 clinical indications or diseases in various stages of research and development in commercialization. Ten years ago or so, there were only three. That's how rapidly the field is growing."  #FocusedUltrasoundFoundation #FUSFoundation #FocusedUltrasound #Glioblastoma #ClinicalTrials #NeuroOncology #Innovation #Healthcare #MedTech #Oncology #Neurology fusfoundation.org Download the transcript here

As we gain a better understanding of how misfiring brain circuits lead to mental health conditions, we'd like to be able to go in and nudge those circuits back into balance. But this is hard — literally — because the brain is encased in this thick bony skull. Plus, often the problem you want to target is buried deep in the middle of a maze of delicate brain tissue you need to preserve.Today we're going to be talking with neuroscientists who aim to solve this problem with sound. And not just any sound: ultrasound.Kim Butts Pauly and Raag Airan from the Stanford Department of Radiology are developing ultrasound technology in a couple of different ways to essentially reach into the brain to treat brain disorders that are otherwise hard to access. These uses of ultrasound haven't yet reached the clinic, but could be entering clinical testing in people in the next few years. Mentioned on the ShowMeet the 2025 Neurosciences Postdoctoral Scholars (Wu Tsai Neuro, 2025)Butts Pauly LabAiran LabNon-invasive brain stimulation opens new ways to study and treat the brain (Wu Tsai Neuro, 2025)Advancing Brain Resilience: 2024 Catalyst and Pilot Grant Awards (Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience, 2024)Researchers find response to ketamine depends on opioid pathways, but varies by sex (Stanford Medicine)A New Focused Ultrasound Neuromodulation System for Preclinical Brain Research (Focused Ultrasound Foundation, 2024)Translating Neuroscience Advances into Real World Uses (Wu Tsai Neuro, 2023)Get in touchWe want to hear from your neurons!

In honor of Essential Tremor Awareness month, this episode of Curing with Sound, features Michael Werner, a healthcare attorney, who has lived with essential tremor most of his life. After years of struggling with increasingly debilitating tremors that affected daily activities like eating and cooking, he chose to have a noninvasive focused ultrasound procedure. Michael's story highlights the critical gap in awareness about focused ultrasound technology, even among healthcare professionals. Despite having tremors since high school that progressively worsened with age, doctors initially recommended only medication or deep brain stimulation surgery without mentioning focused ultrasound as an option. It wasn't until a neurosurgeon at NIH asked why he wasn't considering focused ultrasound that Michael learned about this groundbreaking alternative treatment, which ultimately provided immediate and significant symptom improvements with minimal side effects. Key points include: Immediate Results – Michael's condition improved immediately following the two-hour focused ultrasound procedure, allowing him to write his name and hold objects steadily for the first time in years. Confidence in the Procedure – After successfully treating his right hand nine months ago, Michael plans to return for bilateral treatment to improve his left side. Advocacy & Awareness – As both a patient and healthcare lawyer, Michael participates in advocacy efforts, including a congressional fly-in, to raise awareness about focused ultrasound treatment among policymakers and potential patients.

This episode of Curing with Sound features Elisa Konofagou, PhD, the Robert and Margaret Hariri Professor of Biomedical Engineering and professor of radiology at Columbia University, who is a pioneer and leading expert in focused ultrasound. Dr. Konofagou discusses her important research using focused ultrasound to open the blood-brain barrier, the development of portable therapeutic ultrasound devices, and the future of this noninvasive technology and its role in treating a variety of conditions. The Focused Ultrasound Foundation recently designated Columbia as the seventh Center of Excellence (COE) in the US and the 14th worldwide. The COE program recognizes luminary sites for their merit in translational and clinical research in focused ultrasound, training, and patient care. The Centers serve as hubs for collaboration, bringing together academia, industry, and the Foundation to champion therapeutic ultrasound technology in innovative ways. Key points from the conversation: Blood-brain barrier opening – Clinical trials using focused ultrasound for blood-brain barrier (BBB) opening, enabling delivery of therapeutics for treating a wide range of conditions including, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and diffuse midline glioma (DMG) in pediatric patients.   Breast cancer – Dr. Konofagou is studying the use of focused ultrasound to ablate primary tumors, both benign and malignant. She is also using the technology to mechanically vibrate tumors, then evaluating the changes in stiffness or elasticity as a biomarker of chemotherapy response.  A portable ultrasound device for broader accessibility – Unlike MRI-guided focused ultrasound, which requires expensive imaging equipment, Dr. Konofagou's team developed a portable device that can be brought to patients, allowing real-time monitoring and faster treatment times.

In this episode of the Biohacker Babes, we sit down with Dr. Robert Whitfield, a renowned plastic surgeon with over 25 years of experience, to dive deep into the topic of Breast Implant Illness. Dr. Whitfield breaks down what Breast Implant Illness (BII) is, its symptoms, and who may be at risk. We explore the common myths surrounding the condition, how to recognize the signs & symptoms, and why many patients experience frustration when seeking answers. We also discuss explant surgery--the process of removing implants--and its potential health benefits. Additionally, we unpack the role of mold toxicity, biofilms, and heavy metals, lesser known issues that can affect those with breast implants. Tune in for an informative conversation that sheds light on an important but often misunderstood issue affecting women today.A plastic surgeon for over 25 years, Dr. Robert Whitfield previously specialized in working with cancer, burn, and critically ill patients, and reconstruction for breast, head, and neck. In 2016, one patient gave him a deeper purpose when she came into his clinic for a consultation regarding her existing breast implants and was battling a number of symptoms including headaches, chronic fatigue, joint and muscle pain, and much more. This led Dr. Whitfield on his path to helping women who suffer from Breast Implant Illness (BII) and to date, he has performed thousands of explant surgeries. Unique to his practice, Dr. Whitfield believes it is important to combine functional medicine as a core part of his work. He developed the SHARP method (Strategic Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program), a series of protocols (testing, GI mapping, supplementation, nutritional counseling, etc.) to help reduce systemic inflammation and assist patients who are both preparing for or recovering from surgical procedures, cosmetic or otherwise.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the show!2:40 Dr Robert Whitfield's bio3:24 Welcome him to the podcast!5:32 What is Breast Implant Illness?6:40 How the United States treats BII differently9:28 Reconstructing with your own abdominal tissue10:20 Does everyone with implants need to be concerned about Breast Implant Illness?14:21 Reducing swelling in tissue during surgery17:39 Who is the most susceptible to BII?19:42 Mold toxicity as an upstream stressor21:38 The biggest strains of bacteria found on implants24:25 Catching up on new breast implant research26:40 *CAROL BIKE*28:05 *MAGNESIUM BREAKTHROUGH*29:15 Biofilms & the immune system31:52 Detoxing before vs after38:02 Heavy metals & breast implants39:29 Should you use Saunas with implants?43:15 Timeline for surgery & healing46:54 MRIs & Ultrasounds for ruptures47:47 Fat transfers & weight loss drugs53:16 Dr. Whitfield's Resources & Learning center57:12 His final piece of advice58:32 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Website: drrobertwhitfield.comMetaOxy TestCarol Bike - Discount code: biohackerbabes for $250 off BiOptimizer's Magnesium Breakthrough - Discount code: biohackerbabes10Our Sponsors:* Check out Effecty and use my code BIOHACKERBABES for a great deal: https://www.effecty.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
