    Why advertise for a profiteering behemoth that steals wages? That money must feel dirty.

  • Amazing podcast

    I love y’all’s podcast. Great updates with evidenced based sources.

    Would y’all please consider a podcast on adult ADHD, which anecdotally I’ve seen a “rise” in self patient diagnoses. And withdrawing patients from benzodiazepines. Thanks!

  • Retirement rant is ridiculous

    The comments on not retiring are criminally insensitive. Many people have no choice about retirement age. Many jobs are unrewarding and stressful, not rewarding or providing purpose. By contrast many retirement activities are engaging and meaningful. Clearly it has to be approached carefully but it can be fulfilling and health promoting.

  • Big fan!

    I love this podcast! I’m a first year medical student and listen to it as productive procrastination (or when I’m too deep in the biochem/anatomy study weeds and need a reminder of what I’m moving towards). I attribute at least 85% of the smart things I say during class to this show. Plus it’s fun!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#543: Navigating Post-Acute Care and Living Options for Older Adults with Dr. Rachel K. Miller
Q: What options and resources can help an older adult who wants to remain at home as their care needs increase?
Miller describes home modifications, medication and transportation support, adult day programs, PACE, home-based primary care, and local resources such as Area Agencies on Aging and senior care managers. She recommends gradual changes and continued conversations that include the older adult's goals.
#543: Navigating Post-Acute Care and Living Options for Older Adults with Dr. Rachel K. Miller
Q: What should clinicians learn about an older adult's home environment and support needs when planning a hospital discharge?
Miller recommends asking about the home layout and barriers, available supports, the patient's preferences, changes in function, activities of daily living, and any skilled care needs. These details help determine whether home services or a facility is appropriate.
#542: Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) with Dr. Purna Kashyap
Q: How would you complete that testing and how do you make the diagnosis?
Small-intestinal aspirates can be used when available, though there is no accepted gold-standard test. If breath testing is used, Kashyap recommends glucose hydrogen testing because lactulose can reach the colon before the hydrogen rise is measured.
#542: Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) with Dr. Purna Kashyap
Q: What about this case would make you think of the possibility of SIBO, and what are the typical clinical presentations that you see with SIBO?
Bloating alone is not a strong indicator. The classic presentation is chronic diarrhea associated with fat malabsorption, malnutrition, or weight loss; constipation should also be considered when patients report bloating.
REBOOT #511 Alzheimer's Disease: Updates in Diagnosis and Treatment
Q: Who should order blood-based biomarkers in practice today?
It varies, but estimates show a trend toward specialty care and memory clinics handling initial interpretation, with primary care starting to refer when cognitive impairment is evident and comfort interpreting results is limited.
