A record-breaking number of applications were received, with 23 projects funded, including events like “The Color Purple” by Aurora Theatre and “Shakespeare in the Park” by Contemporary Classics Theatre. These initiatives aim to enrich Gwinnett's cultural landscape and foster community development. Nicole Love Hendrickson, Chairwoman of the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, highlighted the county's commitment to supporting arts, culture, and entertainment. STORY 5: The New PlayTown Suwanee Offers Bigger Experiences for Kids The newly rebuilt and expanded PlayTown Suwanee playground, located in the Town Center on Main park, has opened to the public, drawing families like the Johnsons, who have fond memories of the original playground. The new facility features three themed play areas, including one resembling Suwanee City Hall and another designed as a treehouse, along with a drive-thru restaurant-themed set. The playground also incorporates inclusive features like wheelchair ramps and sign language walls. Built by volunteers, including Atlanta Falcons players and cheerleaders, the project aims to create a space for community bonding and childhood memories for a new generation.   We'll be back in a moment   Break 3: INGLES 8   STORY 6: Early menopause linked to breast cancer in women Women who experience menopause before 40 face heightened risks of breast and ovarian cancer, according to a new American study. The research suggests relatives of these women also have increased cancer risks, including breast, prostate, and colon cancers. Led by Dr. Corrine Welt from the University of Utah Health, the study focused on women with primary ovarian insufficiency and their relatives. It found that women with early menopause had double the risk of breast cancer and almost quadruple the risk of ovarian cancer. Relatives also faced elevated risks of various cancers. Dr. Welt emphasizes the importance of regular cancer screening for women with infertility or early menopause, especially if they have a family history of cancer. STORY 7: Personalized flu shots closer after major breakthrough Researchers have made a breakthrough in personalized flu vaccines by identifying biomarkers that gauge an individual's ability to resist infection. This discovery could revolutionize vaccination programs, allowing for tailored vaccine doses based on a person's immune response. The study, led by Dr. Nhan Nguyen, analyzed blood samples from 286 donors across multiple flu seasons. They found that current vaccine response assessments may not accurately predict immunity, especially for those with high pre-vaccination antibody levels. The identified biomarkers offer a more sophisticated approach to assessing vaccine effectiveness. The researchers aim to develop personalized flu vaccines and diagnostic tests based on these biomarkers, reducing costs and increasing protection against infection. The findings will be presented at the European Society of Human Genetics conference, signaling a significant advancement in personalized healthcare. We'll have final thoughts after this.   Break 4: INGLES 9 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

There is healing in collective grieving. Grief does not have to be an isolated experience, and the support of one's social circle can play a crucial role in navigating the grieving process. Outside of family and close friends, resources such as grief support groups and group therapy can offer valuable avenues for communal healing. Kathie Supiano, director of Caring Connections: A Hope and Comfort in Grief Program—the bereavement care program at University of Utah Health, joins this episode to talk about the social domain of grief and the multifaceted role of social connections during times of loss. The conversation touches on societal norms and stereotypes surrounding grief, cultural and generational differences in grieving practices, as well as gender disparities in how we may approach grief and loss.

When Tamiko Rafeek admitted herself to the hospital a few years ago, she asked for an interpreter. “I was feeling very, very sick that day,” she recalled. Rafeek is deaf, and the Americans with Disabilities Act mandates that deaf patients receive interpreter assistance when requested. But, like over 50% of deaf patients in healthcare settings in the United States, she didn't receive adequate interpretation.“It felt like the whole world was crashing in,” Rafeek said. “They kept taking my blood pressure and taking all these tests. And no one let me know why.” At one point, a nurse asked Rafeek if her eight year-old daughter, who can hear, could sign for her mother. Rafeek thought that was inappropriate. “I said, no, she's too young. She's my daughter, she shouldn't be interpreting for me.”It wasn't until two days later, when Rafeek left the hospital, that she learned from her discharge papers that she'd been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. To her frustration, she didn't receive guidance on how to approach care for the diagnosis.Unfortunately, Rafeek's situation isn't uncommon. Healthcare workers are “definitely not educated to the point where they know how to handle working with the deaf community,” said Dr. Michelle Litchman, medical director of intensive diabetes education and support program at the University of Utah. Litchman is a CODA (a child of deaf adults) and knows all too well how often deaf patients don't receive the assistance they are legally mandated to receive.Years ago, her deaf aunt was admitted to the hospital for an infection. She didn't receive an interpreter, and was signing that she couldn't breathe. But the staff did not provide her with adequate care. She later died in the hospital. “We just know that it could've been prevented,” Litchman said.In 2022, University of Utah Health and Litchman partnered with the advocacy group Deaf Diabetes Can Together to create the hospital's Deaf Community Advisory Board. The board, made up of Rafeek and other deaf patients, advised the hospital on how it could improve care for its patients with diabetes, a condition deaf people are twice as likely to have. Litchman plans to expand this model for other marginalized groups, including rural and Pacific Islander patients.Ira Flatow sat down with Rafeek and Dr. Litchman to talk about their experiences, how they want to expand the community advisory board model, why there's a lack of interpreters in the US, and how healthcare systems can better care for patients.Want to learn more and participate?

I'm Stacey Simms and these are the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now XX In the news is brought to you by Edgepark simplify your diabetes journey with Edgepark XX Our top this story this week a new CGM from Medtronic gets approval in Europe. It's called Simplera – an all in one disposable CGM– no fingersticks and no over-tape, which is new for Medtronic. Simplera is integrated with the InPen™ smart insulin pen, which provides real-time, personalized dosing guidance to help simplify diabetes management. Medtronic will begin a phased launch at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) 59th Annual Meeting in Hamburg, Germany on Oct. 2-6, 2023. Simplera™ is indicated for ages 2+ and compatible with iOS and Android. Simplera™ is not approved by the FDA and is limited to investigational use in the U.S. Medtronic's automated insulin delivery (AID) system integrated with this next-generation sensor is currently under review for CE Mark and is not commercially available in the U.S. or in Europe. I've reached out to Medtronic – we'll learn more soon. https://news.medtronic.com/2023-09-21-Medtronic-Diabetes-announces-CE-Mark-for-new-Simplera-TM-CGM-with-disposable-all-in-one-design XX A small study and a long way to go here, but a weekly dose of semaglutide, helped seven out of 10 patients newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes stop taking insulin after three to six months. Semaglutide is the key ingredient in Ozempic.. approved for type 2 and Wegovy, approved for weight loss. It's also thought to tamp down the inflammation that can lead to the destruction of insulin-producing cells. He noted previous research has shown that patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes still have the ability to make some of their own insulin, so the team tested semaglutide in patients within three months of their diagnosis. All ten patients were taking meal time and long acting insulin. After three months, all of them came off meal time insulin, and seven stopped basal insulin. Much more study needed here.. interestingly. Ozempic's maker, Novo Nordisk noted it didn't sponsor this study and isn't pursuing trials of semaglutide for type 1 diabetes itself, https://www.cbsnews.com/philadelphia/news/semaglutide-ozempic-wagovy-type-1-diabetes-insulin-study/ XX a widely used diabetes drug that controls blood sugar can also prevent muscle atrophy and muscular fibrosis—which can help the elderly bounce back faster from injury or illness. Researchers from the University of Utah Health have found that Metformin has surprising applications on a cellular level. Their findings were published in the journal Aging Cell. “We saw two things in our study,” Drummond says. “When participants took Metformin during a bed rest, they had less muscle atrophy. During the recovery period, their muscles also had less fibrosis or excessive collagen. That build-up can make it harder for the muscle to properly function.” https://scitechdaily.com/researchers-discover-surprising-side-effect-of-common-diabetes-drug/ XX Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) say they have created a device for people with type 1 diabetes that may help produce insulin when needed. Their findings were published on September 18 in The Proceeding of the National Academy of Science. The MIT engineers reported that the small implantable device could carry hundreds of thousands of insulin-producing islet cells. Previous devices made for the same purpose failed and stopped producing insulin because they ran out of oxygen needed to create the insulin. To combat this, the scientists created an oxygen factory on the device, allowing it to generate oxygen by splitting water vapor in the body. The researchers said the device could potentially replace insulin injections in people with type 1 diabetes. Dr. Caroline Messer, an endocrinologist at Northwell Lenox Hill Hospital in New York, not involved in the study, explained to Medical News Today: “Currently, islet cell transplant is limited to patients with a history of severe metabolic complications and consistent failure of insulin-based therapies. Long-term success rates are low, and patients require lifelong immunosuppressive therapy. Conceptually, implantable islet cells that do not require immune suppression and create their own source of oxygen is nothing short of brilliant.” MIT researchers said the device kept glucose levels stable for at least one month when implanted into mice. The device has not yet been tested in humans. Researchers hope to create a larger version of the device and test it in people with type 1 diabetes. They expect this device to be about the size of a stick of chewing gum. “We are eager to see this technology translate, but it does take time,” said Dan Anderson, PhD, the study's lead author and a professor of chemistry at MIT. “We hope to see this technology in humans within at most four years.” Although the researchers remained focused on treating diabetes, they indicate this kind of device might be able to be adapted to treat other illnesses that require repeated delivery of therapeutic proteins. “This technology allows for an improvement in the current approach to implantation of units containing cells that produce insulin in response to blood glucose levels without requiring invasive surgery,” said Dr. Eliud Sifonte, an endocrinologist at NYU Langone Medical Associates, who was not involved in the study. “Historically, this approach has been difficult to maintain due to an inability to provide a good oxygen supply to those implanted cells,” Dr. Sifonte told MNT. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/how-a-new-device-may-help-with-insulin-production-for-type-1-diabetes XX Weight Watchers and Abbott announce their new app for people with diabetes. This is a WW app that integrates the use of a Freestyle Libre. The app helps people with diabetes understand how food and activity impact their glucose levels. WeightWatchers had a team of nutrition and behavioral science experts designed its tailored plan. It aims to help people with type 2 diabetes form helpful habits and meet their health goals. The plan has demonstrated success in helping people with diabetes lose weight and lower their HbA1c, the company said. https://www.massdevice.com/abbott-weightwatchers-unveil-connected-diabetes-app/ XX Italy celiac XX Keto and other low carbohydrate diets have gained popularity for type 2 diabetes in adults, but there are safety concerns for young people, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) cautioned. Restricting carbohydrates in young people at risk for or with diabetes raises concerns for growth deceleration, nutritional deficiencies, poor bone health, nutritional ketosis, and disordered eating behaviors, Tamara Hannon, MD, of Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis, and colleagues on the AAP Committee on Nutrition wrote in a clinical report to guide care. Based on demonstrated risks, low- and very low-carbohydrate diets were not recommended for children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, "except under close diabetes care team supervision utilizing safety guidelines," the group wrote in Pediatricsopens in a new tab or window.
