  • Excellent Board prep

    I listened to every available episode prior to the recertification exam for IM in spring of 2026. The 190 episodes covered a broad array of topics in a compact format. The physician hosts are superb and entertaining. Thanks to you all

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 200: A 67-Year-Old with Fatigue and Puffiness
Q: All the following statements regarding this patient are true, except: A) anti-centromere antibody is likely positive; B) topoisomerase-1 antibody is likely positive; C) she is at risk of cardiomyopathy; D) she is at risk of pulmonary interstitial lung disease; E) she is at risk of scleroderma renal crisis.
The anti-centromere antibody is false; anti-centromere antibodies are more commonly seen in limited cutaneous scleroderma (CREST), whereas topoisomerase-1 is associated with diffuse disease and increased risk of interstitial lung disease.
Ep 198: A 54-Year-Old with Aortic Stenosis
Q: All of the following statements regarding this patient's aortic stenosis are true, except: A) risk of an ascending aortic aneurysm, B) bicuspid valve likelihood, C) LVH on ECG, D) valve area greater than 1 cm2, E) atorvastatin effect on progression.
Option E is false; statin therapy and RAAS inhibitors have not been shown to slow the progression of aortic stenosis, while the other statements (A-D) align with typical features of bicuspid aortic valve-associated AS and its natural history.
Ep 201: A 67-Year-Old with Scleroderma
Q: Tell me more about scleroderma renal crisis.
Scleroderma renal crisis is a medical emergency where timely recognition and initiation of aggressive therapy with ACE inhibitors are critical; risk factors include early disease, extensive skin involvement, anti-RNA polymerase III antibodies, and prior glucocorticoid exposure.
Ep 201: A 67-Year-Old with Scleroderma
Q: Which therapy is correct for treating scleroderma renal crisis in this patient with acute kidney injury and PRESS?
Captopril (short-acting ACE inhibitor) is the treatment of choice, started promptly after excluding other causes of acute kidney injury, to rapidly lower blood pressure and improve prognosis.
Ep 197: A 77-Year-Old Hospitalized with Pneumonia
Q: The question asks, in this patient, which of the following is the most specific diagnostic test?
The most specific diagnostic approach is clinical examination at the bedside, supported by CAM as a diagnostic aid.
