What happens when Italian folk traditions cross the Atlantic? This video explores how Italian witchcraft, especially the healing practice of Segnature, has been reimagined, reinvented, and often misrepresented in the United States. From Leland's Aradia to Wicca-inspired “Stregheria,” we'll look at how Italian-American communities blended folklore, Catholic devotion, and Pagan spirituality to create new forms of practice. But are these the same as the vernacular traditions in Italy, or something entirely different?This video is a recording of the paper I presented at the World Congress of the International Association for the History of Religions, held at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland.Join me as we unpack the myths, the reinventions, and the cultural translations behind Italian witchcraft in America.CONNECT & SUPPORT

It's Thursday, May 22nd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Pakistani Muslim man abducted, forcibly converted, and “married” Christian teen A Christian 15-year-old girl in Pakistan reunited with her parents yesterday after being abducted five months ago. A 29-year-old Muslim man, Muhammad Anees, kidnapped her with four other men from her aunt's home, forcibly converted her to Islam, and married her. The girl suffered abuse for months and is now pregnant.  Attorney Hanif Hameed told Morning Star News, “This is a clear case of false conversion and fake marriage to cover the crime of abduction and rape.” Sadly, such cases are increasing in the South Asian country. Pakistan is ranked eighth on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  Billy Graham Association to host evangelism meeting in Germany The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association is hosting the largest meeting on evangelism in 25 years in Berlin, Germany later this month. It's the same location that Rev. Billy Graham held the first World Congress on Evangelism in 1966. Evangelist Franklin Graham is focusing the upcoming event on the church in Europe. Listen to his comments to CBN News. GRAHAM: “We want to ignite a fire in Europe to where there's an excitement for evangelism and the churches are willing to be bold and not ashamed of the Gospel. “We've got Ukrainian churches coming. We have churches coming from Russia. You know, some say, ‘These countries are at war.'  Yes, they are, but the Gospel is more powerful than any of that stuff.” In Romans 1:16, the Apostle Paul wrote, “I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.” Trump announces “Golden Dome” missile defense system U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans for a $175 billion missile defense system on Tuesday. U.S. Space Force General Michael Guetlein is leading the project, known as the “Golden Dome.”  Trump said the system should be completed in about three years. Defunding Planned Parenthood remains in Trump's budget bill A handful of conservative Republicans, who hesitated to support Trump's “big, beautiful bill,” appear ready to support the massive package after a furious pressure campaign from President Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson, reports The Hill. After meeting with Trump at the White House on Wednesday afternoon, and then huddling together afterward on Capitol Hill, the members of the conservative Freedom Caucus emerged to say they're on the cusp of supporting the package — if a laundry list of changes promised by the White House is reflected in the final proposal. Their newfound enthusiasm appears to stem from assurances Trump and Johnson made during the White House meeting, including a promise from the president to issue more executive orders addressing some of the spending concerns the conservatives couldn't secure in the legislation, and expanding the rollback of green energy tax credits enacted in the Democrats' 2022 Inflation Reduction Act.  The bill seeks to deliver on Trump's key campaign promises, including making permanent Trump's 2017 tax cuts and eliminating taxes on tips.  And, thanks in part to the calls of Worldview listeners, the defunding of Planned Parenthood remains in the bill. Court: Florida should require parental consent for a minor's abortion Last Friday, a federal appeals court ruled against a Florida law that allows minors to get abortions without parental consent. A three-judge panel of the U.S. Fifth District Court of Appeals ruled that the law was unconstitutional and violated parental rights. The decision stated, “Whatever asserted constitutional abortion rights may have justified Florida's [law] in the past unequivocally have been repudiated by both the U.S. Supreme Court and the Florida Supreme Court.” Married, employed, church-attending people happier Harvard University recently published their Global Flourishing Study which surveyed 200,000 people across 22 countries over the past five years. The study found people experienced higher levels of wellbeing when married, employed, and attending religious services. Professor Tyler VanderWeele led the research. He noted, “Religious service attendance was one of the factors most consistently associated with present or subsequent wellbeing, across countries and across outcomes.” Anniversary of First Council of Nicaea And finally, this month marks the anniversary of the First Council of Nicaea, 1,700 years ago. In May A.D. 325, about 300 Christian leaders convened in the city of Nicaea, located in modern-day Turkey.  The council dealt with the doctrine of the Trinity. In particular, the church at the time had to refute the heresy of Arianism, which denied that Jesus is fully and eternally divine.  The council went on to affirm the Trinity and Christ as fully God in the Nicene Creed. It is recited by churches worldwide to this day.  The creed affirms there is “one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by Whom all things were made.” John 1:1 and 4 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ... In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, May 22nd, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Recorded at the close of the recent IARS (International Anesthesia Research Society) annual meeting held in Honolulu, Hawaii. Our co-editor in Chief Professor Mike Grocott's arrival at the IARS from the UK was delayed by a fire at Heathrow airport. This piece turns his late arrival into your good fortune, as both Professor Kate Leslie and Professor Monty Mythen, TopMedTalk's founder, fill him in on the conference. If you missed the IARS this year or were there but could do with a high level summary of the highlights, this podcast is a great place to start. The discussions cover Monty's workshop presentation on clinical trials and industry partnerships, reflections on clinical trials conducted outside the US, and the potential underutilization of American data in large pragmatic trials. They also talk about cutting-edge trial designs, new drug developments in anesthesia, and notable research abstracts presented at the meeting. Moreover, they cover topics like exercise prehabilitation, nutrition, and cognitive training pre-surgery. There's an emphasis on the importance of evidence-based guidelines, the potential for combining protocolization with personalized care, and the significant role interactive physical and cognitive exercise plays in patient outcomes.

In the latest Suite Spot: Spotlight series episode, we travel to Atlanta, Georgia, to showcase the one-of-a-kind, AAA Four Diamond Hilton hotel - The Signia by Hilton Atlanta! Director of Sales at the property, Julia Austin, sits down with the Suite Spot to give travelers a keen look at why this newly built hotel not only broke new ground, but is also breaking records and setting the bar for guest experiences, being hospitality forward, and incorporating excellence in every square foot of the property.  Ryan Embree: Welcome to Suite Spot, where hoteliers check in, and we check out what's trending in hotel marketing. I'm your host, Ryan Embree. Hello everyone. Welcome to another episode of The Suite Spot. This is your host, Ryan Embree, and we are here on our Suite Spot Spotlight series at the beautiful Signia by Hilton Atlanta. I'm so excited to be here. We just got a tour of this incredible property. I'm here with the Director of Sales, Julia Austin. Thank you so much for having us here and hosting us at the Signia by Hilton Atlanta. Julia Austin : Absolutely. Thank you so much for being here. Ryan Embree: So before we get into this amazing property, and there's so much to cover, by the way, it is a history lesson just walking in, I love the term that was used during the tour of this is a love letter to the city. We're gonna talk all about this amazing property, but in hospitality, we know it's a big small world, right? We typically work for sometimes different brands. Sometimes we work for the same brand. I love hearing hospitality leaders and their journeys through their experience, and what led them to a new property like this. Julia Austin : Yeah, absolutely. So it is, it is such a small world and hospitality and, you know, I kind of came into the world by a dear friend of mine from college. I graduated and was trying to figure out what exactly to do next, and she introduced me to the world of hotels and I fell in love. And 15 years later, here I am miles away from home. I'm born and raised in Arizona, living in Atlanta, Georgia, and getting to be a part of this amazing signature hotel within the Hilton brand. It's been a wild journey, but I can now, looking back, can't imagine the last 15 years doing anything else other than working in such an amazing industry that the hospitality industry really is. Ryan Embree: Yeah. So many pieces of your stories echoed with industry leaders. I talked to first, sometimes a lot of hospitality industry people don't know what they're gonna do right outta college, fall into it, but fall in love to it and also heard that wild journey, to get you here at this incredible Signia by Hilton Atlanta. Let's talk about this for those, audience members that might not be familiar with Signia, because this is the first new build Signia, and for this brand. Talk to us a little bit about the characteristics, that make up what a Signia by Hilton is. Julia Austin : Yeah. You know, so when Hilton was really looking on how to expand the company and what we were going to do next, we really kind of reached out to the people, you know, what are you looking for when you travel? What are you looking for when you're planning meetings and events, when you're hosting galas or social events? And the resounding, you know, feedback that we as a company received was, we want something that is elevated, yet still approachable. So, you know, we wanna have these beautiful views, floor to ceiling, glass windows, you know, state-of-the-art meeting space and high level guest rooms. But we still wanna be able to feel like when we come to this hotel, even with just under a thousand rooms that we're family and that, you know, we belong here and, and we are really embracing ourselves not only in the brand and the hotel, but the community and the city that we're in at the time as well. So, and that's really kind of how Signia became to be. Ryan Embree: I mean, it again,

Send us a textThis week we bring back our friend and friend of the show, Dr. Ashish S. Patel! Dr. Patel takes us on a global journey through the evolving landscape of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease treatment, revealing contrasts between approaches across continents and highlighting gaps in how new medications reach children.While adult IBD patients have benefited from an explosion of treatment options over the last two decades, children remain limited primarily to anti-TNF biologics as their only FDA-approved options. This forces physicians to fight insurance battles for access to newer medications or enroll patients in clinical trials that come years too late. "We have to bring evaluation of these medications to pediatrics concurrently with adult populations," Dr. Patel explains, sharing how advocacy efforts aim to shift this paradigm.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when comparing treatment philosophies worldwide. At the World Congress in Buenos Aires, nutritional therapy, probiotics, and dietary interventions dominated discussions—a striking contrast to North American conferences featuring pharmaceutical companies. This reveals how resource availability shapes medical approaches, with Latin American physicians developing expertise in nutritional interventions while North American practices focus on biologics.Dr. Patel's most hopeful insights come from current research aiming to personalize treatment based on a patient's unique profile. Studies collecting genetic information, microbiome data, and environmental exposures may eventually allow doctors to determine the optimal intervention—whether medication, diet modification, or environmental change—for each child at diagnosis. "In the near future, at least for certain types of IBD, we're talking about something that's curative rather than just therapeutic," he shares, offering hope that we're moving beyond symptom management toward addressing root causes.Join us for this eye-opening conversation that challenges conventional thinking about how we research, develop, and implement treatments for one of medicine's most complex childhood conditions.Links: ImproveCareNowNorth American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (NASPGHAN)Let's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

Eli Lilly takes the first steps toward getting tirzepatide approved for people with type 1 diabetes. Tirzepatide is sold under the brand names Mounjaro for type 2 and Zepbound for obesity. The main purpose of this study is to find out how well and how safely tirzepatide works in adults who have type 1 diabetes and obesity or are overweight. Participation in the study will last about 49 weeks. Official Title A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Tirzepatide Once Weekly Compared to Placebo in Adult Participants With Type 1 Diabetes and Obesity or Overweight This is a big deal because, even though many people with type 1 are able to get a prescription for tirzepatide, it's not approved for T1D and so insurers won't usually cover it.   https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06914895 XX The use of drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound in people with type 1 diabetes has risen sharply over the past decade, a new study finds, even though there's little information on the drugs' safety and effectiveness for the condition. The family of medications called GLP-1 receptor agonists includes drugs like Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro and Victoza. But the clinical trials of these medications specifically excluded people with type 1 diabetes, who are dependent on the hormone insulin to survive because they can't make enough of their own. Drugmakers feared that using the GLP-1 medications with insulin might raise the chance of dangerously low blood sugar events, or hypoglycemia, and were unwilling to take the risk of studying them in people with type 1.   For the study, which was published last month in the journal Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism, researchers at Johns Hopkins University reviewed the medical records of more than 200,000 people with type 1 diabetes from 2008 to 2023. They grouped the data in three-year periods, starting with October 2008 to September 2011 and ending with October 2020 to September 2023. GLP-1 medication use spiked, as well. Among adults with the highest category of obesity, about 4% used GLP-1 medications in 2008, and 33% did by 2023 – an 800% increase. But these are anecdotal reports and may not reflect instances in which people have side effects or complications like low blood sugar, which can be life-threatening. But Shin says what's really needed is information from randomized, double-blinded studies, in which participants are followed forward in time and given either a drug or a placebo. https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/09/health/glp-1-type-1-diabetes-study/index.html   XX Later this month the FDA will conduct a final meeting regarding a new, investigational compound (sotagliflozin) soda-GLIFF-a-zin that has been shown to Improve QoL and Reduce Long-term Complications for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The patient advocacy group Taking Control of Your Diabetes (TCOYD.org) is working to inform the T1D community about sotagliflozin - and to encourage people to sign a Change.org petition directed towards FDA.  Last fall, the FDA declined to approve sotagliflozin due to concerns about a potential increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), despite this being a condition that people with T1D on insulin face and manage daily. While TCOYD respects FDA's caution, the group stands by T1D patients and their physicians who, as a team, balance risks and benefits every day. https://tcoyd.org/petition/ XX Dexcom receives FDA approval for it's G7 with 15 day wear. We have an interview with Chief Operating Officer Jake Leach coming up on Tuesday – we talk about the planned roll out of this sensor, what else has changed, and the fine print in the press release – it says    “A study was conducted to assess the sensor life where 73.9% of sensors lasted the full 15 days. When using the product per package labeling, approximately 26% of sensors may not last for the full 15 days.   https://investors.dexcom.com/news/news-details/2025/Dexcom-G7-15-Day-Receives-FDA-Clearance-the-Longest-Lasting-Wearable-and-Most-Accurate-CGM-System/default.aspx?utm_source=www.diabetech.info&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=dexcom-g7-15-day-sensor-gets-fda-cleared-but-will-it-actually-last-that-long   XX Glucotrack is joining something called  FORGETDIABETES bionic pancreas initiative, - this is an European Union project that aims to develop a long-term automated insulin delivery system for type 1 diabetes patients. Glucotrack's Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor (CBGM) will be integrated into the system to provide real-time glucose readings. The initiative's goal is to create a bionic invisible pancreas that eliminates the need for therapeutic actions and reduces psychological burden.   The architecture of BIP encompasses a ground-breaking, lifelong lasting implanted ip glucose nanosensor; a radically novel ip hormone delivery pump, with unique non-invasive hormone refill with a magnetic docking pill and non-invasive wireless battery recharge; an intelligent closed-loop hormone dosing algorithm, optimized for ip sensing and delivery, individualized, adaptive and equipped with advanced self-diagnostic algorithms.     Pump refilling through a weekly oral recyclable drug pill will free T1D subjects from the burden of pain and awkward daily measurement and treatment actions. Wireless power transfer and data transmission to cloud-based data management system round-up to a revolutionary treatment device for this incurable chronic disease. key feature of BIP is to be fully-implantable and life-long lasting thanks to novel biocompatible and immune-optimized coatings guaranteeing long-term safety and stability https://www.stocktitan.net/news/GCTK/glucotrack-to-participate-in-forgetdiabetes-a-prominent-european-cjjldjb0dq7h.html XX A newly recognised form of diabetes, called Type 5, was announced this week at the World Congress of Diabetes 2025. A global task force will investigate this less-understood condition, which differs from Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Type 5 diabetes affects people who are underweight, lack a family history of diabetes and do not show the typical symptoms of Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. The condition was first observed in the 1960s and referred to as J-type diabetes, after being detected in Jamaica. It was classified by the World Health Organisation in 1985, but removed in 1998 due to lack of physiological evidence. At the time, experts believed it to be a misdiagnosed case of Type 1 or 2 diabetes. New research has since confirmed that Type 5 is different. https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/new-updates/a-new-type-of-diabetes-has-been-found-by-scientists-and-it-doesnt-show-the-typical-symptoms-of-type-1-or-type-2/articleshow/120276658.cms?from=mdr   XX Oral semaglutide cuts major heart risks in people with type 2 diabetes by 14%, offering a powerful pill-based option. A new clinical trial, co-led by endocrinologist and diabetes specialist John Buse, MD, PhD, and interventional cardiologist Matthew Cavender, MD, MPH, at the UNC School of Medicine, has demonstrated that the oral form of semaglutide significantly lowers the risk of cardiovascular events in individuals with type 2 diabetes, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and/or chronic kidney disease. Results from the rather large, international trial were published in the New England Journal of Medicine and presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session & Expo in Chicago, Illinois.     The effect of oral semaglutide on cardiovascular outcomes was consistent with other clinical trials involving injectable semaglutide, but more trials are needed to determine if one method may be more effective than the other at reducing major cardiovascular events. https://scitechdaily.com/new-pill-form-of-semaglutide-shows-major-benefits-for-people-with-diabetes/ XX April 14 (UPI) -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Monday warned consumers and pharmacies that fake versions of Ozempic, a drug to treat Type 2 diabetes, have been found in the United States. Novo Nordisk, the Danish-headquartered manufacturer, informed the FDA on April 3 that counterfeit 1-milligram injections of semaglutide were being distributed outside its authorized supply chain. The FDA and Novo Nordisk are testing the fake products to identify whether they're safe. Patients are asked to obtain Ozempic with a valid prescription through state-licensed pharmacies and check the product for any signs of counterfeiting. People in possession of the fake product are urged to call Novo Nordisk customer care at 800-727-6500 Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. EDT and report it to the FDA's criminal activity division's website. Side effects can be reported to FDA's MedWatch Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program (800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch) as well as to Novo Nordisk, at 800-727-6500. https://www.upi.com/Health_News/2025/04/14/FDA-fake-Ozempic-drugs-Novo-Nordisk/6841744666854/ XX Can a digital lifestyle modification program reduce diabetes risk? A new study shows that the lifestyle intervention significantly reduced 10-year diabetes risk among prediabetics by nearly 46% and increased the diabetes remission rate, highlighting the importance of lifestyle changes. However, the study was not a randomized trial, and participation in the lifestyle intervention was voluntary, which may introduce selection bias. The study evaluated 133,764 adults, categorizing them as diabetic (7.5%), prediabetic (36.2%), and healthy (56.3%), based on fasting glucose and HbA1c levels. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20250414/Digital-lifestyle-program-cuts-diabetes-risk-by-4625-in-prediabetics-study-of-130k2b-adults-reveals.aspx XX Chrissy Teigan is speaking out about her son's type 1 diagnosis – teaming up with Sanofi to encourage people to screen early for Type 1 diabetes.   Teigen got a crash course in the risks of undiagnosed Type 1 diabetes when her 6-year-old son, Miles, was hospitalized with complications of the autoimmune disease last year. The family knew nothing about Type 1 diabetes when Miles was diagnosed during an unexpected medical emergency, Teigen said in a Tuesday announcement. “We were confused and scared when Miles was first diagnosed,” she said in a statement. “There is no doubt in my mind that knowing in advance would have made a positive impact for Miles, me, and our entire family. I want everyone to hear me when I say: stay proactive and talk to your doctor about getting yourself or your loved ones screened for type 1 diabetes today!”   Teigen shared her family's story in a two-minute video on ScreenForType1.com, a Sanofi website that discusses how to get screened for the condition. Miles' diagnosis made Teigen feel like she “went from a mom to a doctor overnight,” she said. That experience is why Teigen said she is “begging you: Do this one thing, and screen yourself and your family for Type 1 diabetes.” https://www.fiercepharma.com/marketing/sanofi-signs-chrissy-teigen-diabetes-screening-campaign XX Dr. Richard Bernstein – best known for his advocacy around low carb diets for people with diabetes – died this week at the age of 90. Born in 1934 in Brooklyn, New York, he was diagnosed with type 1 at age 12. In the 1970s he adapted a blood glucose monitor for home use and helped pioneer home glucose monitoring. He published multiple books on Diabetes including the #1 selling Diabetes book on Amazon.Com “Dr. Bernstein's Diabetes Solution: A Complete Guide to Achieving Normal Blood Sugars” and “Diabetes Type II: Living a Long, Healthy Life Through Blood Sugar Normalization”.  He practiced and saw patients right up until his death.

The PREPARE trial is a randomized control trial aimed at improving surgical outcomes for older patients with frailty through prehabilitation. This discussion covers the inspiration behind the trial, the structure of the prehabilitation program, and the trial's results. Despite not finding significant improvements in the primary outcomes across all patients, the trial revealed that those who adhered to the program showed clinically meaningful improvements. The conversation delves into the challenges of patient adherence, the role of technology, and the importance of personalized interventions in prehabilitation. Presented by Mike Grocott and Kate Leslie on location at the International Anesthesia Research Society (IARS) and Society of Critical Care Anesthesiologists meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii, with their guest, Daniel McIsaac, Associate Professor of Anesthesiology & Pain Medicine, University of Ottawa, Canada.
