Parkinson’s Disease in Children and Young Adults
Apr 1400:30:41Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Rodolfo Savica, M.D., Ph.D. We commonly see Parkinson’s Disease in our older patients, but have you ever seen it present in a child or young adult? It can happen. Whereas Parkinson’s Disease in an older patient is likely to be idiopathic, we need to consider genetic conditions as well as secondary causes when it occurs in younger individuals. It’s important for primary care clinicians to recognize young patients with symptoms of Parkinson’s in order to rule out other potentially treatable conditions. Does Parkinson’s present any differently in children or young adults? How fast does it typically progress? Is the management of a child or young adult different? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Rodolfo Savica a neurologist from the Department of Neurology at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Parkinson’s Disease in Children and Young Adults”.

Transcribe →Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Diabetes and Novel Therapies for Diabetes
Apr 900:33:34Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Vinaya Simha, M.B.B.S., M.D. For years, we saw very little change in the management of type 2 diabetes. However, over the past decade, numerous new pharmacologic treatment options, innovations in glucose monitoring, and new insulin delivery systems have become available. We’ve also seen a new philosophy regarding the goals of diabetes management. What are the latest medications for diabetes and is there still a role for the older, traditional options? How have the improvements in technology affected the management of diabetes and what are the newly established goals for managing patients with the disease? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Vinaya Simhah from the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Diabetes and Novel Therapies for Diabetes”. This episode of Mayo Clinic Talks is the third of three podcasts celebrating a remarkable milestone in Mayo Clinic’s history – the 100th anniversary in April this year of our renowned journal, Mayo Clinic Proceedings.

Transcribe →Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Healthy Aging
Apr 700:28:30Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Robert Pignolo, M.D., Ph.D. Our population is aging as our life expectancy increases with time. In general, we’re living longer than those before us. Aging is an interesting concept; we all want to achieve old age, but it’s not something we look forward to. What we really want is to maintain our physical, mental and social well-being in order to achieve a high quality of life as we age. I’m talking about healthy aging and that’s the topic of this podcast. What degree of healthy aging is due to genetic factors vs. intentional choices we make during our life? Which lifestyle behaviors are most important in achieving healthy aging, and what can we learn from those who have lived exceptionally long lives? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Robert Pignolo, an internist and named professor of geriatric medicine in the Center of Aging at the Mayo Clinic. This episode of Mayo Clinic Talks is the second of three podcasts celebrating a remarkable milestone in Mayo Clinic’s history – the 100th anniversary in April this year of our renowned journal, Mayo Clinic Proceedings.

Transcribe →Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Sleep Disorders and How They Adversely Affect Health
Apr 200:31:38Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Bhanu Kolla, M.D. We commonly take sleep for granted. That is, until our sleep quantity or quality is compromised. This can result in both mental and physical health problems, including daytime fatigue and sleepiness. Sleep disorders are quite common and often undiagnosed, yet they can contribute to diabetes, cognitive impairment, and cardiovascular disease, potentially leading to premature mortality. Primary care clinicians play a major role in the identification and management of sleep disorders. What are the most common disorders we see in the outpatient setting? What are the presenting symptoms we should watch for? What tests should we do to establish a diagnosis and when should we refer patients we feel may have a sleep disorder? The topic for today’s podcast is sleep disorders, and these are questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Bhanu Kolla, a psychiatrist and sleep medicine specialist from the Center for Sleep Medicine at the Mayo Clinic.

Transcribe →Retinal Disorders
Mar 3100:32:35Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Brittni A. Scruggs, M.D., Ph.D. There are a variety of eye disorders which involve the retina, and they all have the potential to cause significant vision loss or blindness if not detected early. Two of the most common retinal disorders we see in primary care include diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration. Since most health conditions affecting the retina are asymptomatic early in their course making patient screening and risk factor management an important task for primary care clinicians. Appropriate referrals to an ophthalmologist can result in effective treatment and improved outcomes. Which patients are at risk of retinal disorders? What are some “red flag” symptoms which should give us concern? Which medications we prescribe can affect the retina? This podcast is about retinal disorders, and I’ll be asking these questions and more of my guest, Dr. Brittni Scruggs, an ophthalmologist and retinal surgeon at the Mayo Clinic. Connect with us!

Transcribe →Update in the Management of Hyperlipidemia
Mar 2400:28:50Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Stephen Kopecky, M.D. Cardiovascular disease is highly prevalent in our society. Fortunately, we have a variety of treatment options to lower the risk of developing its complications. Over the past decade, there’ve been many changes in managing hyperlipidemia, one of the most important risk factors for cardiovascular disease. This includes a change in assessing our patients’ risk, identification of new risk factors, new testing options, and new pharmacologic options for treating hyperlipidemia. We’ll cover all of these topics in this podcast. My guest is Dr. Stephen Kopecky, a preventive cardiologist at the Mayo Clinic, and we’ll be discussing “Update in the Management of Hyperlipidemia”.

Transcribe →Pulmonary Vascular Complications of Liver Disease
Mar 1700:24:25Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Kathryn del Valle, M.D. Chronic liver disease can result in a variety of complications which can involve multiple organs. One of these complications can occur in the pulmonary vascular system. Two of the most clinically significant include hepatopulmonary syndrome and Portopulmonary hypertension. Patients with these syndromes may present to their primary care provider and if the medical condition is unrecognized, it can affect morbidity and ultimately the prognosis of the patient. What are the early symptoms and physical findings of hepatopulmonary syndrome and Portopulmonary hypertension? How are they diagnosed, and should we be screening patients with chronic liver disease for these pulmonary vascular disorders? My guest for this podcast is Dr. Kathryn del Valle, from the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care at the Mayo Clinic and we’ll be discussing “Pulmonary Vascular Complications of Liver Disease”.

Transcribe →Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Mar 1200:20:20Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Stephen Ansell, M.D., Ph.D. Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is a group of hematologic malignancies originating in the lymphatic system. There are over 60 subtypes of lymphoma with varying degrees of aggressiveness. It can present with a variety of rather subtle symptoms, often making the diagnosis challenging. Although Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is typically managed by a hematologist or oncologist, the primary care provider plays a role in its recognition, preliminary diagnostic tests and supporting patients through their treatment. What are some of the more common symptoms and signs of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma? Which ones should prompt an urgent referral, and what preliminary tests should we do prior to referring the patient? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Stephen Ansell, Chair of the Division of Hematology at the Mayo Clinic. The topic for this podcast is Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.

Transcribe →Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Mar 1000:24:39Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Stephen Ansell, M.D., Ph.D. Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is an uncommon but very curable malignancy involving the lymphatic system. It most commonly presents in young adults as well as middle-aged and older individuals. Although Hodgkin’s is generally managed by hematologists or oncologists, the primary care provider plays a major role in its recognition, hopefully leading to a timely diagnosis and eventual staging. What are some early signs of Hodgkin’s and what preliminary work-up should we do prior to referring the patient for definitive care? How do we monitor those who have had successful treatment of Hodgkin’s? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Stephen Ansell, Chair of the Division of Hematology at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Connect with us!

Transcribe →Heart Health Series | Diastolic Heart Failure
Mar 300:29:57Tap to summarizeHost: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guests: Jae K. Oh, M.D., Tahir S. Kafil, M.D. Diastolic heart failure is also known as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Although we don’t hear the term all that often, it actually represents a fairly large percentage of all cases of heart failure. Some studies suggest it represents the majority of heart failure cases. Older adults are most commonly affected with symptoms similar to those of systolic heart failure. So how do we suspect diastolic heart failure? How should the diagnosis be established, and how does the treatment differ from systolic heart failure? Finally, what role do primary care providers play in the management of the condition? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guests, Dr. Jae Oh and Dr. Tahir Kafil, both cardiologists in the Department of Cardiovascular Disease at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Diastolic Heart Failure”.
