Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

BS Medicine Episode #610: Vitamin D and Mortality – Don't bet your life on it!
Q: Are there safety concerns with high-dose vitamin D, such as bolus dosing?
Some analyses suggested high-dose bolus vitamin D could potentially increase fracture risk, and the consensus is that bolus dosing does not confer benefits and may pose safety concerns.
BS Medicine Episode #610: Vitamin D and Mortality – Don't bet your life on it!
Q: What about cardiovascular outcomes and cancer?
Across studies including participants with and without cardiovascular disease, there was no reduction in major cardiac events or cardiovascular mortality, and cancer incidence showed no reduction with vitamin D; cancer mortality results were inconsistent across reviews.
BS Medicine Episode #610: Vitamin D and Mortality – Don't bet your life on it!
Q: Does vitamin D supplementation reduce mortality in adults?
Based on five systematic reviews of all-cause mortality, most found no difference with placebo; the one that did show a difference reported an odds ratio just below 1.0, and overall the evidence favors no meaningful reduction in mortality.
BS Medicine Episode #616: Taking the "ouch" out of IUD insertion: Can topical lidocaine help?
Q: Are there analgesic options commonly used in practice that should be avoided due to lack of evidence?
Yes, practices like routine mesoprostol for pain relief before IUD insertion have not shown benefits and can cause additional GI side effects, and several other methods were found not to have consistent positive effects, reinforcing the need to prioritize proven options like EMLA cream or lidocaine spray where appropriate.
BS Medicine Episode #616: Taking the "ouch" out of IUD insertion: Can topical lidocaine help?
Q: What did the evidence show about the effectiveness of EMLA cream and lidocaine spray for IUD insertion pain?
EMLA cream reduced pain at both the tenaculum placement and the IUD insertion, with higher patient satisfaction compared to placebo, while lidocaine spray showed a more variable but generally favorable effect in some trials, particularly a notable reduction in moderate-to-severe pain in the larger study; however, adverse events were inconsistently reported across trials. Overall, topical lidocaine when used in certain formulations can provide meaningful pain relief, but the effect size and safety signals depend on the product and study.
