Dr. Rachel Artsma, lead audiologist at hear.com offers comprehensive hearing care services and she emphasizes how dramatically hearing aids have evolved from earlier generations. Bluetooth connectivity, rechargeable batteries, and real-time environmental adjustments are now being driven by smart chips in the devices, which also allow direct streaming of phone calls, music, and driving directions. Untreated hearing loss can lead to auditory deprivation, in which the brain does not receive clear auditory input, resulting in increased cognitive strain and a decline in cognitive function. Rachel explains, "Hearing loss can happen really gradually, and so oftentimes it can go unnoticed. What we do is we like to educate people on the early signs of hearing loss, such as asking others to repeat themselves, turning the television up, or family members noticing it before them. And then when it comes to the actual hearing test, we do a full comprehensive audiological evaluation. In that audiological evaluation, we sometimes see signs of other health issues. We do make referrals to other specialists such as ear, nose, and throat physicians if we're seeing that something else might be happening in the health of that person." "I honestly feel like one of the most exciting developments in hearing healthcare is our growing understanding of the hearing-brain connection. We really don't hear with our ears. We really hear with our brain. Our ears are collecting the sound, but our brain is really giving that sound meaning. So what can happen if we don't treat hearing loss and it goes untreated is something called auditory deprivation, which essentially just means we're depriving the brain of the sound that it's looking for. And what happens is the brain then has to work a little harder and devote extra resources to decoding that speech and sound. And that extra effort is what can lead to some strain on other cognitive functions such as memory. So we see that that strain, because we hear with our brain, can lead to some of those other cognitive functions declining." #HearingCom #HearingHealth #Teleaudiology #Audiology #HearingAids #DigitalHealth #CognitiveHealth #PatientCare #HearingCareInnovation #HearingWellness hear.com Download the transcript here

For 17 years, William Floyd lived in the wilderness. Undiagnosed. Untreated. Just surviving. Then a decade of medications that partially worked, and then didn't. By the time he came to see us in November of 2024, he was sleeping 16 hours a day. Couldn't get out of bed to shower. Couldn't drive his son to Little League. Couldn't walk through a gas station because crowds felt overwhelming. His wife had quietly become his caretaker. And he was, in his own words, eye-deep in the water barely getting enough air.Six IV ketamine infusions later, he came out of the initial series and the depression was gone.Weeks after that, his wife started crying on the couch. When he asked what was wrong, she said, "I'm just so happy I have my person back."This 42-minute conversation is William's story from the wilderness years through the darkestthree years of his life to the day his son had his dad back at Little League.It's for anyone who is:- Sleeping too much and still exhausted- Watching a spouse quietly take on more of the parenting load- On a third or fourth antidepressant that isn't holding- Wondering if this is just who they are now

This week on the podcast we are joined by Dr. Kemi Doll, a physician, surgeon, researcher, double board-certified gynecologist and oncologist, and founding director of the Gynecologic Research and Cancer Equity Center at the University of Washington. After 16 years of training and over $200,000 in student loan debt, she turned her personal and professional experience into a mission to change how Black women are treated in gynecologic care. In this episode, Dr. Kemi breaks down how conditions like heavy menstrual bleeding, endometriosis, and fibroids are not just health issues; they are career and financial ones. Women with endometriosis can miss up to 60 to 65 days of work a year, while women with heavy bleeding often show up to work functioning far below their capacity, a phenomenon called presenteeism. She shares the clinical signs that your period is not normal, the exact language to use at your gynecology appointment to be taken seriously, and how to find a provider who will actually listen. We also get into her own story of resilience, how she used the NIH Loan Repayment Program to eliminate her debt while building her research career, and why she started a coaching company after discovering she was being paid 30% less than her colleagues. In this episode, Dr. Kemi shares: How untreated womb conditions like fibroids and endometriosis silently drain Black women's productivity and earning potential The clinical signs that your period is not normal and what you can do about it How to advocate for yourself at a gynecology appointment, including the exact phrases that get doctors to take your symptoms seriously How she paid off over $200,000 in student loans using the NIH Loan Repayment Program while building her research career + more What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonus The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: NIH Loan Repayment Program: lrp.nih.gov Check out "A Terrible Strength" by Dr. Kemi Doll Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

Send us Fan MailThis is the conversation that gets dismissed as "family business." The one we've let fester behind closed doors while the community looks the other way.We're going there. No filters. No "be patient" cop-outs. Real talk.Malika Majesty joins OZ Media to break down the silent crisis nobody wants to own — the mental health collapse, the cycle of abuse, and the misogyny wearing religious clothing in Muslim homes and institutions. We're talking scope. We're talking about accountability. And we're asking the question every community leader hopes you won't ask.IN THIS EPISODE:▸ When we say "silent crisis" — what are we actually talking about? The scope you don't see.▸ Why is this conversation still off-limits in Muslim spaces in 2026?▸ Untreated trauma: what it looks like 10, 20 years down the line in a marriage. In a family.▸ Abuse in Muslim homes — is it getting worse, or are we just finally naming it?▸ "What happens in the home stays in the home" — break that down. Where did that rule come from, and what has it cost us?▸ Why has misogyny in the community actually gotten worse — not better?▸ Mosques, boards, community leaders — are they doing enough? If not, what's actually missing?▸ One policy or practice every mosque should implement tomorrow.▸ Detroit/Metro Detroit resources that exist right now — that most people don't know about.▸ Final word: If you could say one thing to every Muslim person listening right now, what is it?This isn't an attack on the community. It's a survival briefing. Male-heavy audience — this one's for you. Not to point fingers, but to ask: what does accountability actually look like? What are we teaching our sons that we should be teaching our daughters — and vice versa? If "protecting our sisters" is the value, what are the actions that back it up?Hit that like. Share it. Someone in your circle needs to hear this and doesn't know how to start the conversation.

Last week, we began a new series called It Is Well With My Soul. Your soul is your mind, will, and emotions. Our Heavenly Father wants our souls to be healed, restored, rested, and guarded. Your spiritual health and mental health occupy the same space, so that means you cannot be spiritually healthy and mentally unhealthy at the same time. They are connected. Because of this fact, it’s time to be honest about how you are doing mentally and how you’re getting along with the people around you. Holding it all inside isn’t brave or courageous; it’s foolish and selfish. Being a Christian doesn’t mean you suck it up and deal with it. The enemies of our mental health are real and should not be taken lightly. Untreated mental health destroys marriages, ministries, careers, and lives, so you need to be honest about the things in your life that are becoming unmanageable. This week, we’re exploring Enemies of My Soul’s Health.

Bible News Prophecy with Dr Bob Thiel STIs - Risk and Elimination Make Love Not War! Free Love! Two slogans that sounded good, to many. Yet a lot of people decided that meant they should have sex with multiple partners. Are there any consequences to committing sexual acts outside of marriage and with multiple partners? Have you ever heard of STIs? STIs are Sexually Transmitted Infections. STIs never happen within a marriage between two people that have been true to each other from the beginning. STIs are basically ALWAYS the result of sex with multiple partners, plus are reported by the Center for Disease Control to occur in even a higher percentage of homosexual men. Does a green discharge from the sexual organ sound just as good. That green discharge is the symptom of an STI known as gonorrhea. Untreated, blindness and even death are possible results of syphilis. STIs have greatly increased. Coincidence? Not a chance. Did you know that your unborn baby can get the same STI you have? Free love isn't so free anymore, is it? What does God have to say about His commandments, obedience, fornication, and disease? Watch this video as Dr. Thiel cites official statistics, STI symptoms, and shines the light of Biblical truth on how the God of the Bible teaches that STIs can be prevented and eliminated.

Two articles in CMAJ look at endometriosis from sharply different angles. One shows how devastating delayed recognition can be, following a patient whose deep infiltrating endometriosis led to renal atrophy, bowel obstruction, sciatic nerve impingement and a permanent ostomy. The other offers a more reassuring picture, finding only a small increased risk of congenital anomalies among infants born to patients with endometriosis. Together, they show why endometriosis deserves earlier recognition, better imaging and more serious clinical attention.Dr. Sony Singh, chair of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Ottawa and head of the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Newborn Care at The Ottawa Hospital, discusses the CMAJ practice article, “Renal atrophy, bowel obstruction, and sciatic nerve impingement secondary to endometriosis”. He explains how deep infiltrating endometriosis can invade adjacent organs and cause severe fibrosis when left untreated.Bailey Milne, a PhD candidate in epidemiology at Queen's University, discusses the CMAJ article, Risk of congenital anomalies for infants born to patients with endometriosis: a population-based cohort study. She emphasizes that although the study found a small increased risk of congenital anomalies, the overall risk remains low.For physicians, the episode highlights the importance of considering endometriosis in patients with cyclical pelvic, abdominal, bowel, urinary or sexual pain, even when initial imaging is normal.For more information from our sponsor, go to md.ca/lifeplanComments or questions?

In the early 1990s, long before his name would be tied to something unthinkable, Scott McLaughlin was already unraveling. Untreated childhood trauma, cognitive struggles, and severe mental illness shaped his life. Suicide attempts. Institutionalizations. Heavy medication. And yet, nothing seemed to stick. The help he received was fleeting. A decade later, in 2002, his path crossed with Beverly Guenther, a woman who knew hardship in a very different way. Beverly had lived through devastating loss, including the death of her young child, and years of grief that followed. But she fought her way back. She found purpose in her work, her creativity, and her compassion for others. To those who knew her, she was kind, intelligent, and resilient, someone who believed in helping people, even when they were broken. “She was really turning her life around,” her brother once said. And then… she met Scott McLaughlin. Join Cam and Jen for this episode of Our True Crime Podcast, titled ‘Waiting in the Dark: The Murder of Beverly Guenther.'

Episode 697 - Rae Dumont - In the Shadow of Silence - A Novel of love and joy leading to the descent of untreated depression and unbearable lossIn this episode, author Rae Dumont shares the inspiration behind her novel In the Shadow of Silence, a story drawn from her decades as a pediatrician and family therapist. Living in a New Jersey suburb near Manhattan, Dumont explains how the book demanded to be written, capturing fundamental truths about families facing mental health struggles, particularly depression. Influenced by James Baldwin's commitment to truth, she focuses on relational dynamics rather than specific events, portraying no person as an island.The novel centers on Lyman, a man battling depression, and his family's emotional turmoil—anger, guilt, inadequacy, and confusion among his wife Eva and children. Dumont wrote for those suffering in silence, emphasizing they are not alone; help exists through therapy, medication as an adjunct, couples counseling, exercise, and awareness practices. She highlights how children notice parental moods early, like Lyman's young daughter's tears prompting his initial treatment, and stresses modeling help-seeking as strength, not weakness, to break generational cycles of unspoken trauma and suicide.Family members grapple with mixed feelings, such as frustration when efforts to help fail, and the dangers of stopping treatment impulsively without support. Dumont addresses cultural stigmas, especially for men, urging collaborative monitoring instead of solo battles. Post-tragedy, she advocates space for diverse reactions—fury, grief, or silence—using tools like family mapping to reveal what kids already sense.Key Takeaway: You are not alone in depression or supporting a loved one through it—reach out for help, talk openly, and model vulnerability to foster healing and connection across generations. About Rae Dumont I am a mother, a widow, a friend. As a pediatrician and a family therapist, I have shared in many people's experiences, and tried to help.I hope to bring these lives to the page, and to share what they taught me.This book is for you, if you have struggled with depression. There are people who love you, and reasons to live.If you have tried to help a loved one who does battle with darkness, this book will show that you are not alonehttps://www.raedumontwriting.org/Please read my blog on SUBSTACKhttps://raedumont.substack. comSend us Fan MailSupport the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Neurology. 2025;105(11):e214387. doi:10.1212/WNL.0000000000214387 Show transcript: Dr. Halley Alexander: Hi, this is Halley Alexander with today's Neurology Minute. I'm here with Abel Sandmann from Amsterdam University Medical Center, and we just finished recording a full-length podcast about some exciting findings related to cerebral cavernous malformations and the risk of seizures and epilepsy. Abel, can you give our listeners a rundown of the most exciting findings and how it can change practice? Dr. Abel Sandmann: In our paper, we show that patients with a cerebral cavernous malformation who have a first unprovoked seizure should be diagnosed with epilepsy and considered for anti-seizure medication, as most of them achieve long-term seizure freedom with medical therapy alone. These findings are based on a prospective population-based cohort study in which we analyze long-term follow-up and assess the rates and risk factors for: one, a first-ever epileptic seizure; two, seizure recurrence to evaluate the updated ILAE definition of epilepsy; and three, seizure freedom over two years and five years among patients with epilepsy. We found that among patients who had never experienced a seizure before, the 10-year risk of a first-ever seizure was only 6%. This supports current recommendations against prophylactic anti-seizure medication in patients who are incidentally diagnosed with a cerebral cavernous malformation. However, following a first unprovoked seizure, the 10-year risk of recurrence was 80%, which exceeds the 60% threshold defined by the ILAE. This justifies diagnosing epilepsy after the first and provoked seizure in this population. Given that the risk of recurrence was lower in patients treated with anti-seizure medication after the first seizure, this supports early initiation of therapy, although these treatment analyses were non-randomized and should be interpreted cautiously. Most patients who met the definition of epilepsy became two year and five years seizure-free with medical management alone. But some patients with cerebral cavernous malformations develop medically intractable seizures and might benefit from surgical treatments. Dr. Halley Alexander: Excellent. Thank you so much, Abel.

Dr. Stacey Clardy reviews biotin deficiency and biotin-related lab interference. Show transcript: Dr. Stacey Clardy: Hi, this is Stacey Clardy from the Salt Lake City VA and the University of Utah, and I'm back with you for another lab minute. Today, let's talk about Biotin or vitamin B7, because the Biotin story in neurology has two very different aspects. The first is a real deficiency, which is uncommon, but clinically really important. And the second is the modern problem of biotin supplementation that's quietly wrecking our lab interpretation. So first, true biotin deficiency in adults is less common, but it can look like a multi-system neurologic syndrome. The classic teaching is dermatitis and alopecia, so keep those in your mind. But neurologists end up seeing the downstream features. So lethargy, depression, paresthesias and sometimes ataxia. Now, in infants and children, the bigger higher stakes entity is biotinidase deficiency, which is fortunately screened in many newborn programs in the US. Untreated, it can produce seizures, developmental delay, optic atrophy, and hearing loss. And the key point is that these neurologic injuries can be prevented if biotin is started early enough. Also, remember, there are numerous reports now in the literature of it mimicking the clinical and radiological features of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder or multiple sclerosis. So if you have one of those diagnoses and you're not quite sure that it's right, keep biotinidase deficiency in the back of your mind. Now, what most of us clinicians are living with is the biotin supplement era. So high dose biotin, taken by a lot of people, either knowingly or unknowingly, can interfere with biotin streptavidin immunoassay platforms. And the direction of error depends on the assay design, but the practical pitfalls are simple. You can be handed a lab pattern that screams something like hyperthyroidism or other endocrine pathology, and it can actually be purely analytical artifact. Thyroid testing is the most common example, and troponin and other assays can also be affected depending on the assay platform. So a common clinical misstep is to treat the lab burnout rather than the patient. So if your patient symptoms don't match this new endocrine emergency that the lab appears to be showing, ask, are they taking biotin? This is commonly in hair and nail supplements or buried in the myriad ingredients of another fix all supplement. So you need to find out if it's in any of those. The easiest thing is to say, tell me all of the supplements and the brands you're taking. And then I usually do a quick internet search right there to find out if biotin's in there. And so the lowest friction fix is generally to repeat the test after holding biotin for an appropriate interval. At least a week is usually a safe time to guess about. The key is coordination with the laboratory. Not every lab behaves the same and some systems now actually have evolved mitigations, which is quite helpful. So that's the biotin update. So remember, biotin deficiency is treatable and sometimes urgent. And also, biotin supplementation is now a common lab confounder that can trigger avoidable diagnostic and therapeutic errors. Thanks for spending a few minutes with me. This is Stacey Clardy, and that's your lab minute.
It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as we hear what we need to know and watch out for when it comes to New World Screwworm and what economically it could do if found in the country. Plus, the latest news, market reports, the ranch channel sales calendar and lots more all wrapped into this brand-new episode of The Ranch It Up Radio Show. Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. Season 6, EPISODE 279 What Is New World Screwworm? The New World screw worm (NWS) is the larval stage of the fly Cochliomyia hominivorax. Unlike most fly maggots that feed on dead tissue, screw worm larvae feed on living tissue — making them especially dangerous to cattle and other livestock. The adult fly lays eggs in open wounds, including: Branding or castration sites Dehorning wounds Ear tag punctures Tick bites Navel cords of newborn calves Minor cuts or abrasions Once hatched, larvae burrow into flesh in a screw-like motion — hence the name “screw worm.” Why New World Screwworm Is A Major Threat To Cattle 1. Rapid Tissue Destruction Larvae feed aggressively on living tissue, enlarging wounds quickly. Untreated infestations can lead to: Severe tissue damage Secondary bacterial infections Reduced weight gain Decreased milk production Infertility in breeding stock Death in severe cases 2. High Economic Impact Historically, screw worm outbreaks have cost the livestock industry billions in: Treatment costs Production losses Increased labor Export restrictions Quarantine expenses The successful eradication program in the U.S. — led by the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service — is considered one of the greatest livestock pest control achievements in history. Signs Of Screwworm Infestation In Cattle Early detection is critical. Producers should watch for: Foul-smelling wounds Bloody discharge Sudden irritation or head shaking Reduced feed intake Visible maggots in wounds Rapid wound enlargement Infested cattle often isolate themselves and show signs of distress. Treatment Protocol For Infected Cattle If screw worm is suspected: Immediately isolate the animal Notify state animal health authorities Clean and flush the wound Apply approved larvicidal treatments Monitor closely for reinfestation Reporting is mandatory in many regions because screw worm is a regulated livestock pest. Prevention Strategies For Cattle Producers 1. Wound Management Best Practices Avoid elective procedures during peak fly season Use fly repellents and wound protectants Monitor surgical sites daily 2. Biosecurity Protocols Inspect newly purchased livestock Quarantine imported cattle Monitor wildlife activity around pastures 3. Seasonal Awareness Screw worm risk increases in: Warm climates High humidity Regions with cross-border cattle movement New World Screwworm Information Guide: Click HERE Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry M.Wayne Ayers, DVM - Elanco Animal Health https://farmanimal.elanco.com/us Follow On Facebook: @ElancoUS Kirk Donsbach – Financial Analyst at StoneX https://www.stonex.com/ Follow on Facebook: @StoneXGroupInc Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

Leaving a relationship with someone who has untreated borderline personality traits can feel less like a breakup and more like trying to escape a locked room while being told you're the one causing the fire.In this episode, I speak directly to the people who are rarely centered in these conversations: the partners who have been living inside someone else's emotional emergency. The ones who learned to scan tone, timing, silence, and mood shifts just to survive. The ones whose nervous systems became collateral damage.This is not an episode about diagnosing or vilifying people with BPD. It is about naming the relational impact of untreated emotional dysregulation, identity collapse, abandonment panic, and rage–care oscillation on the person who loves them.I talk about:Why leaving can feel impossible without intense guilt and fearHow reality erosion, false accusations, and emotional role reversal take holdThe cycle I see over and over again: rage → collapse → panic → pleading → accusationWhy reassurance makes things worse instead of betterHow partners slowly disappear while trying to keep someone else regulatedWhy intent does not cancel impact, even when suffering is realIf you've ever felt like you were the safest person in the world one moment and the villain the next—with no transition, no shared reality, and no way to win—this episode is for you.Support the show*Please Note: there is a long intro that explains my services.

Danny Rensch was born into a cult that weaponized chess for prestige. He's here to explain how he broke free on part one of this two-part episode.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1289What We Discuss with Danny Rensch:Cults don't always start with sinister blueprints. The Church of Immortal Consciousness where Danny Rensch was raised grew from self-help roots and communal idealism into full financial control — where members surrendered everything, kids shared bathwater, and the shoe list became a euphemism for "you don't matter enough to get a pair."The cult weaponized chess the same way the Soviet Union did — as a tool for prestige. Danny was identified as a prodigy, deliberately separated from his mother, and groomed as the collective's golden child. His talent wasn't nurtured for his sake — it was exploited for the cult leader's ego.By age 13, Danny was living alone, traveling to national chess tournaments with pockets full of cash and no adult supervision. The neglect wasn't just emotional — it was physical. Untreated swimmer's ear became severe infection, leaving him 60% deaf in one ear and 40% in the other.A drunk, defecting Soviet grandmaster named Igor Ivanov — who once fled the KGB during an emergency plane stop — became Danny's live-in chess coach. Igor had carte blanche to drink and do as he pleased, making him the cult's most functional dysfunction and Danny's unlikely lifeline to the wider chess world.Despite growing up as a high school dropout in a cult with no formal education, Danny became a successful writer and helped build Chess.com — proof that curiosity, baseline intelligence, and sheer determination can outrun even the most rigged starting hand. Motivated people can learn faster than any institution expects them to.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Let help uncork your memoir through a 12 week memoir mentorship program: https://mikecarlon.com/memoir-cohorts/ "Medicine knows a patient's disease, but it does not know the patient — and that is where the real crisis lies." — Dr. Robert Smith In this powerful episode of Uncorking a Story, Mike sits down with Dr. Robert Smith, a nationally recognized pioneer in evidence‑based mental health care and physician‑patient communication. Drawing from his new book Has Medicine Lost Its Mind?, Dr. Smith reveals how our current medical system inadequately prepares doctors for the most common health issues in America — mental health conditions — and why this failure is costing lives, families, and entire communities. From formative early-career mistakes to the creation of the first patient‑centered interviewing method, Dr. Smith shares a compelling journey of awakening, reform, and hope. If you've ever wondered why navigating mental health care feels so broken — or what it would take to fix it — this conversation is essential listening. Key Takeaways: The mental health crisis is rooted in medical education. Doctors receive only 2% of training in mental health, despite mental illness being the most common health condition in the U.S. A powerful personal failure reshaped Dr. Smith's career. A patient's diary — detailing how unheard she felt — sparked his lifelong mission to reform how physicians communicate and treat mental health. Primary care doctors handle most mental health cases — untrained. Psychiatrists see only about 12% of mental health patients; primary care sees the rest, often without adequate preparation. The mind–body split dates back to the 1500s. Deep historical roots shape modern medicine's exclusion of psychological and social factors, to the detriment of today's patients. Untreated mental illness drives society-wide consequences. Divorce, addictions, homelessness, incarceration, and even suicide can often be traced back to missed diagnoses in primary care. Dr. Smith proposes a Second Flexner Report. A federally led investigation could expose systemic failures and force medical education to modernize. Listeners can take action today. Dr. Smith provides tools on his website — robertcsmithmd.com — for contacting political leaders and advocating reform.

10:05 – 10:22 (17mins) Michele SteebCEO of Free Up Foundationwww.FreeUpFoundation.comwww.michelesteeb.comAuthor of Answers Behind the RED DOOR: Battling the Homeless Epidemic MICHELE STEEB: Tragic Tales Demand Reform Across America’s streets, the homeless epidemic is claiming lives, fracturing families, and eroding public safety. Often deeply intertwined with mental illness and addiction, it has become a humanitarian crisis that traps vulnerable individuals in cycles of dependence and despair while destabilizing the communities around them. This crisis has been worsened by policies that elevate the notion of “freedom” over timely, life-saving intervention. Recent events make the consequences of that choice unmistakably clear. Continuing on the current path is neither humane nor responsible. Consider what unfolded in New York City over the holidays. A woman with a documented history of serious mental illness and homelessness was released from psychiatric care, only to purchase a knife hours later, then repeatedly stab a mother changing her baby in a store’s restroom. Thankfully, both mother and child survived. But we must be clear that this was not a random act of violence — it was a foreseeable failure of a system that confuses discharge with success and autonomy with safety. In Honolulu, another homeless individual perished from advanced cancer that physicians later said was treatable with timely intervention. While untreated disease ultimately took his life, it also robbed society of the human potential that could have been restored had policy acknowledged his inability to make informed decisions about his own care. The Reiner family tragedy has laid this failure bare. Two parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, were brutally murdered in their Los Angeles home by their adult son — a heartbreaking outcome in the context of his long struggles with addiction, mental illness, and homelessness. Their surviving children are left traumatized, and their family is irreparably shattered. These are predictable results of public policy choices that ignore anosognosia — a neurological condition common in severe mental illness and addiction that strips individuals of insight into their own impairment. When public policy relies on voluntary compliance alone, this version of “freedom” becomes a slow, preventable death sentence for those least capable of protecting themselves. The result is a system paralyzed by fear of intervention, even as untreated illness escalates into violence, loss, and irreversible harm. For decades, civil commitment standards have been weakened in the name of civil liberties, requiring proof of imminent danger before action can be taken. By the time that threshold is met, irreversible damage has often already occurred. Meanwhile, homelessness is at the highest point ever recorded in our nation’s history, as is the death rate amongst the homeless population, driven largely by addiction as this JAMA study from San Francisco indicates. Voluntary programs help some, but they leave the sickest behind, precisely because many individuals are incapable of making rational decisions about their own care. Housing without treatment does not heal psychosis or addiction. It merely relocates suffering. That is why the Trump Administration’s current push to strengthen civil commitment laws and expand their use represents an overdue and necessary course correction. Expanding the criteria for intervention, requiring treatment plans with accountability, and ensuring continuity of care are acts of moral responsibility. Governments that turn to court-ordered treatment frameworks and supervised care models are beginning to confront a hard truth: When individuals are too ill to recognize their need for help, the humane response is intervention. While the Homeless Industrial Complex insists involuntary treatment undermines civil liberties and that it does not work, it was the abandonment of treatment-first approaches — not their use — that coincided with an increase in homelessness, even as public spending ballooned, all under a promise to end homelessness in a decade. It is a profound injustice to allow people with brain diseases to deteriorate, die, or endanger others in the name of an autonomy they do not meaningfully possess. Addiction and serious mental illness are diseases of the brain, not moral failings. Ignoring them does not preserve freedom; it destroys lives, fractures families, and imposes devastating consequences on communities and society as a whole. Accountable compassion pairs empathy with responsibility. It invests in psychiatric beds, recovery-oriented addiction care, and the resilience of human beings. It recognizes that public safety and human purpose are inseparable values. Untreated mental illness, including improperly treated mental illness, costs the U.S. economy hundreds of billions of dollars annually through emergency care, incarceration, lost productivity, and community destabilization. America cannot afford more preventable deaths on sidewalks, more assaults in public spaces, or more families shattered by untreated disease. Thankfully, this Administration recognizes that a society that refuses to intervene until blood is spilled is not a free society at all.

In this episode of Talking Sleep, host Dr. Seema Khosla welcomes Dr. Mark Boulos, Dr. Khullar, and Dr. Mak for an in‑depth discussion on a topic that has challenged clinicians for decades: Are hypnotics safe for patients with untreated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)? As new therapeutic options emerge and our understanding of comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA) evolves, clinicians are increasingly confronted with nuanced decisions about when—and whether—to use hypnotic medications. The guests unpack the latest evidence and share insights from recent studies, including research evaluating dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs) such as lemborexant in individuals with sleep apnea. The conversation begins with a review of hypnotic medication classes and explores which agents may be safer in untreated OSA, and which still raise concerns. The panel discusses a recent lemborexant study, its design, population characteristics (including BMI and OSA severity considerations), and whether industry sponsorship played a role. They clarify that while the study did not focus specifically on COMISA, it sheds light on how DORAs perform in people with sleep apnea—particularly in terms of respiratory metrics. Returning from the break, the experts tackle the practical clinical dilemma of treatment sequencing in COMISA: Should clinicians begin with cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT‑I), initiate PAP therapy, or consider medications first? They walk through what is known about how different hypnotic classes—including z‑drugs, GABAergic agents, trazodone, and DORAs—affect respiratory drive and sleep architecture. The discussion extends to special circumstances such as REM‑related OSA, where increased REM sleep induced by certain medications may have unique implications. The episode also considers broader emerging questions: Do DORAs improve apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) even without PAP? Can hypnotics be used strategically to improve sleep continuity without worsening respiratory parameters? And will future insomnia care rely on identifying phenotypes that respond differently to GABA‑based medications or wakefulness‑impairment targets? Throughout the conversation, the guests emphasize evidence-based takeaways, including the central finding that DORAs do not appear to worsen OSA‑related metrics, offering reassurance for clinicians navigating complex COMISA treatment plans. Whether you regularly see patients with comorbid insomnia and untreated sleep apnea or simply want clarity on the evolving role of hypnotics in this population, this episode offers practical, research-grounded guidance for clinical decisionmaking. Join us for this important discussion on how hypnotics can be used safely and thoughtfully in patients with untreated OSA.

Olympic sliding sports – bobsled, luge and skeleton – are known for their speed. Athletes chase medals down a track of ice at up to 80 or 90 mph. With this thrill comes the risk of “sled head.” Athletes use the term to explain the dizziness, nausea, exhaustion and even blackouts that can follow a brain-rattling run. Untreated, this can turn into concussions and subconcussions. But there's still a lot more to learn about this condition. So today, host Emily Kwong speaks with two experts about the medical research into sled head – and how the sport would need to change to protect athletes' brain health.Check out more of NPR's Olympics coverage.Interested in more Olympic science?

ADHD is not just about attention. It is about self-control, self-esteem, and what happens when the brain goes offline. Living with untreated ADHD is not just about missing assignments. It is about moving through the world without a reliable connection between what you know and what you do. In this conversation, I talk with Dr. Karin Varblow, a behavioral pediatrician, former teacher and social worker, neurodivergent adult, and mom to neurodivergent kids. We look closely at what untreated ADHD really costs over a lifetime, from self-esteem and identity to health, safety, relationships, and even life expectancy. Dr. Karin explains why ADHD is not simply a "school problem" and why kids who "know better" still cannot always do better in the moment. She shares her "know and go" model of the brain, which helps make sense of why lectures and bigger consequences do not lead to different behavior, and why kids so often feel confused and ashamed by their own actions. We also talk about sleep, airway, co-occurring conditions, and how things like anxiety, trauma, allergies, and disordered sleep can overlap with ADHD or even mask it. Dr. Karin breaks down what good treatment actually looks like in real life, including medication, parent training, behavior supports, and making daily life more stimulating and relevant for the ADHD brain. If you have ever wondered whether ADHD "really" needs treatment, or felt discouraged by mixed messages, this episode will help you see the bigger picture with more clarity and more compassion for you and your child. Key Takeaways Untreated ADHD is not just about school performance. It affects self-esteem, identity, health, safety, relationships, income, and even life expectancy over time. Research shows that people with untreated ADHD have higher rates of emergency room visits, poverty, incarceration, and an average life expectancy that is years shorter than their non-ADHD peers. Treatment meaningfully improves these outcomes. ADHD is both overdiagnosed and underdiagnosed, and it often shows up alongside other conditions like anxiety, depression, learning differences, sleep disorders, allergies, GI issues, and trauma. Sorting out "what's what" takes time and thoughtful evaluation. Effective ADHD treatment is not one thing. The strongest evidence supports a combination of medication and behavior modification, with behavior modification defined as training and support for parents, not "fixing the child" in a weekly session. Behavior plans that focus only on lectures and bigger consequences usually miss the mark. Most kids already know the rules. The problem is not a lack of knowledge, it is a lack of access to that knowledge in the moment. Dr. Karin's "know and go" model helps explain this: the "know" part of the brain holds rules, values, and experience; the "go" part drives behavior. In ADHD, especially around non-preferred tasks, the "go" can take off before the "know" ever gets a say. That disconnect is why kids so often say "I don't know why I did that" and mean it. They are not being manipulative. They are genuinely confused and often ashamed, because their behavior does not match what they actually believe or want. ADHD brains do have strong executive function in areas of high interest. A child who cannot organize themselves around homework may show incredible focus, planning, and follow-through when building Legos or diving into a favorite topic. Sleep, breathing, immune function, and overall health matter. Airway issues, disordered sleep, allergies, and inflammation can all worsen attention, regulation, and behavior, and sometimes even mimic ADHD. Addressing these pieces is part of good care. Supporting a child with ADHD means changing the story from "try harder" to "let's change how we're asking, what we're asking, and how we're supporting you." When adults focus on relevance, relationship, and realistic support, kids get more access to their best selves. About Karin Varblow Dr. Karin Varblow is a behavioral pediatrician and neurodivergence specialist who has built a career around coordinated, whole-family ADHD care. She earned her BA from Duke University and her MD from The George Washington University School of Medicine as a National Health Service Corps Scholar, and completed her Pediatrics residency at INOVA Fairfax Hospital for Children. Dr. Varblow's work is shaped by her unique path as a former educator and social worker, a former general pediatrician, a parent in a neurodiverse family, and an individual with ADHD herself. She supports families through medication management, parent support, behavior modification, care coordination, advocacy, and strategy development, with a focus on helping children thrive in real life, not just "meet expectations."

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Mark Wright, and Andrea Taylor dive into the latest U.S. blood pressure guidelines—and reveal why nearly half of all Americans face risks that can no longer be ignored. Early intervention and smart lifestyle changes are at the heart of these new recommendations.Why is high blood pressure such a hidden danger? What do the new “elevated” and “stage one” categories mean for real people? How do doctors decide when it's time for medication versus lifestyle changes? And how does blood pressure connect to kidneys, strokes, and even dementia? Dr. Cooper unpacks the science, gives practical advice, and shares why home monitoring is now a crucial part of medical care.In this conversation-dense episode, the team breaks old myths and empowers listeners to take charge—so that “keeping an eye” on blood pressure becomes active prevention, not passive worry.Key Takeaways:New guidelines lower the bar for concern—120 over 80 is now “caution,” and 130 over 80 is “hypertension.” Early action matters.Untreated high blood pressure can lead to irreversible organ damage, strokes, kidney disease, and cognitive decline.Doctors now have a better toolkit: updated cutoffs, risk “calculators” that include zip code, and clearer protocols for who needs medication right away.Lifestyle changes (fruit, vegetables, less sodium, more movement, quality sleep, stress management, and alcohol moderation) are the first line for many—especially in the “elevated” category.Metabolic syndrome often includes high blood pressure; medicines like GLP-1s and metformin may help regulate pressure as well as metabolism.Accurate home blood pressure monitoring is strongly recommended, with validated cuff meters (not wrist models).Dr. Cooper shares actionable tips:Eat five servings of fruits and vegetables daily for potassium—bananas, spinach, potatoes, kiwis all help.Get a “validated” cuff monitor and check morning/evening, resting, following best practices.Ask your doctor about the new guidelines and risk calculators (found at the American Heart Association website).Notable Quote:“Home readings are very valuable. I really encourage people to look at the Validate BP site, find a good meter, and keep a log. Catching high blood pressure early and treating it aggressively can have profound impacts on your future health.”— Dr. Emily CooperResources from the episode:Fat Science is your source for understanding why blood pressure—and metabolic health—matter more than ever.

Send us a textStart with a person, not a feature list. That's the thread that runs through our conversation with Brandon Sawalich and Dr. Dave Fabry about how hearing technology actually improves lives: by putting the patient first, then letting smart tools do the heavy lifting in the background. We dig into how AI moved from a buzzword to a real advantage in tough listening environments, why sound quality remains the non-negotiable foundation, and how “the ear is the new wrist” reframes what a hearing aid can be.We share the inside story of building Starkey's Omega AI and the eighth generation of sound processing, including DNN 360 and a neuroprocessor designed to make great hearing the default. Think of it as an easy button for clinicians: set a strong baseline fast, then spend time on what only humans can do—listening, coaching, and fitting for comfort. The Da Vinci surgical system offers a useful metaphor: technology doesn't replace expertise; it amplifies it. That's how we see the partnership between AI and hearing care professionals, and why robots won't be fitting ears anytime soon.Beyond better hearing in noise, Brandon and Dave talk about the bigger health picture. Untreated hearing loss intersects with cardiovascular health, cognition, and social engagement. So Starkey built tools that track activity, encourage connection, and enable voice control without adding another gadget to your routine. They're honest about the pushback that comes with change, the “Swiss Army knife” moment, and what they learned about leading with clarity: it's a hearing aid first, with multipurpose superpowers second.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who's curious about hearing tech, and leave a review so more people can find conversations like this. Your feedback shapes what we build next.Connect with the Hearing Matters Podcast TeamEmail: hearingmatterspodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @hearing_matters_podcast Facebook: Hearing Matters Podcast
