Host: Darryl S. Chutka M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Teresa A. Rummans, M.D. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused innumerable health complications. One complication which hasn’t received a lot of attention has been the effect seen on mental health. Since the pandemic, the incidence of mental illness has increased dramatically, both in patients who have been infected as well as those suffering the social consequences of the pandemic. This has led to mental health disorders representing a major cause of disability. What can we learn from a historical perspective as a result of previous pandemics? How does the COVID-19 virus produce the variety of neuropsychiatric disorders commonly seen? And most importantly, how can we help our patients with their mental health disorders associated with the pandemic? This podcast will review “Psychiatric Issues Stemming From COVID-19” with our guest, Teresa A. Rummans, M.D., a psychiatrist from the Department of Psychiatry and Psychology at the Mayo Clinic.

Psychiatric Issues Stemming From COVID-19

Host: Darryl S. Chutka M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Lisa Lammert, R.D.N., L.D. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death to individuals in the U.S. Many feel that our typical American diet with its high saturated fat content is a major contributor to this. There’s good evidence that shows plant-based diets are cost-effective in lowering the risk factors for cardiovascular disease including obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes. They may also lower the number of medications an individual needs to take to manage their chronic diseases. So, are there any disadvantages to a plant-based diet? Are all plant-based diets healthy and what are the nutritional challenges for a patient on a plant-based diet? We’ll discuss these questions in this podcast on “Plant-Based Diets”. Our guest is Lisa Lammert, a registered dietician and nutritionist at the Mayo Clinic.

“Lettuce Eat” Plant-Based Diets: Healthy & Non-Healthy

Host: Ishna A. Sharma, M.D. (@IshnaSharmaMD) Guest: Julia A. Jurgensen, APRN, C.N.P., D.N.P. The issue of obesity has become a significant public health concern not only in the United States but across the globe. Bariatric surgery was performed on almost 200,000 patients in the U.S. alone in 2020. Despite the recommendation for regular follow-up visits with bariatric providers, studies indicate a high rate of loss to follow-up among these patients. Consequently, they may seek assistance from a primary care physician years later, presenting concerns such as malnutrition or weight gain. Today, we are fortunate to have Julia A. Jurgensen, APRN, C.N.P., D.N.P. , a Mayo Clinic nurse practitioner who specializes in obesity and has vast experience managing patients who have undergone bariatric surgery.

Obesity Edition | Post Bariatric Patient: Common Issues & Weight Regain

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Jason C. Sluzevich, M.D. Hair loss is quite common and although it occurs more commonly in men, it can also occur in women. It’s estimated that up to 80% of men and nearly 50% of women experience hair loss. While it’s not a life-or-death health issue, it can have a negative effect on confidence and self-esteem and a significant amount of money is spent on hair regrowth products and restoration procedures. Did you know that about 95% of our total skin area is covered in hair and you can lose up to 50% of your hair before it’s noticeable to others? How does hair loss differ in males and females? Why do some men go bald? And how effective is the pharmacologic treatment that’s available in producing hair regrowth? We’ll discuss these questions and more with our guest, Jason C. Sluzevich, M.D., a dermatologist at the Mayo Clinic. The topic for this podcast is “Handling Our Patients with Hair Loss”.

Alopecia: Handling Our Patients with Hair Loss

Host: Ishna A. Sharma, M.D. (@IshnaSharmaMD) Guest: Seema Kumar, M.D. Guest: Todd A. Kellogg M.D. The topic of concern that is currently growing in both the United States and around the world is the issue of childhood obesity. According to the CDC growth charts, the number of children and adolescents affected in the US is about 15 million, with the prevalence reaching nearly 20% between the years 2017 and 2020. This is characterized by having a BMI that is at or above the 95th percentile. In order to delve deeper into this issue, we are pleased to have Seema Kumar, M.D., a pediatric endocrinologist at Mayo Clinic, and Todd A. Kellogg, M.D., a metabolic and bariatric surgeon, joining us today.

Obesity Edition | Pediatric Obesity

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Michael J. Link, M.D. Guest: Matthew L. Carlson, M.D. Hearing loss is a commonly seen symptom in a primary care office practice, as is tinnitus and vertigo. Fortunately, they’re almost always due to a benign cause. However, these symptoms may represent something more ominous, an acoustic neuroma, also known as a vestibular schwannoma. It’s important to consider this diagnosis when we see them in our patients, as there is the potential for serious consequences to develop if this remains untreated. What type of hearing loss is associated with a vestibular schwannoma? What are the other associated symptoms? How do we go about evaluating these patients and how are they best treated? I’ll be asking these questions of our guests Michael J. Link, M.D., a neurosurgeon from the Department of Neurologic Surgery and Mathew L. Carlson, M.D., a head and neck surgeon from the Department of Otolaryngology, both at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Our topic for this podcast is vestibular schwannomas.

Obesity Edition | Surgical Weight Loss

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Imad Absah, M.D. Food intolerance is relatively common. It represents a gut sensitivity to one or more foods, usually resulting in various GI symptoms. A food intolerance is not the same as a food allergy, although our patients often consider their symptoms an allergy to a specific food. Food intolerance doesn’t result in any significant health disorder or serious complications and is usually more of a nuisance to the patient. The treatment varies depending on the food involved. The topic for this podcast is food intolerance and our guest is Imad Absah, M.D., a pediatric gastroenterologist from the Mayo Clinic. We’ll discuss how we determine if a patient is experiencing a food intolerance or a food allergy, the most common offending foods, the mechanisms for food intolerance and how we manage the condition.  https://www.usdairy.com/about-us/national-dairy-council Connect with the Mayo Clinic’s School of Continuous Professional Development online at https://ce.mayo.edu/ or on Twitter @MayoMedEd.

Food Intolerance: When “Food Allergies” Aren’t Allergies

Host: Dr. Ishna Sharma, MD (@IshnaSharmaMD) Guest: Barham K. Abu Dayyeh, M.D., M.P.H. The problem of obesity is a major public health concern both in the U.S. and globally. Despite the roughly 250,000 bariatric procedures performed in the U.S. annually, only 4% of them are endoscopic procedures. It's noteworthy that the use of endoscopy for managing obesity is still in its developmental stage. Today, we are privileged to have Barham K.

Obesity Edition | Endoscopic Weight Loss

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: David J. Cangemi, M.D. Functional dyspepsia, also known as non-ulcer dyspepsia, represents chronic upper GI symptoms of indigestion and not infrequently abdominal discomfort. Diagnosing functional dyspepsia can be challenging since there are no definitive diagnostic tests. This often results in patients seeking multiple medical opinions searching for a specific cause and treatment for their symptoms. What are the common presenting symptoms of functional dyspepsia? What’s an appropriate evaluation and how do we treat our patients who have it? In this podcast, we’ll discuss these questions and more with David J.

Dermatologic Conditions for the Primary Care Provider

Guest: Donald D. Hensrud, M.D., M.S., M.P.H. (@DonaldHensrudMD) Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. (@ChutkaMD)  It’s estimated that approximately 70% of Americans are either overweight or obese. Obesity in the United States is a major health issue, resulting in an increased risk of coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, and stroke. It also carries significant economic costs. As a result, the diet industry is booming. It’s thought that the weight loss industry has over $20 billion in annual revenue. Some diets are legitimate, while others are not only ineffective but may be dangerous to one’s health. To help us sort out diets and weight loss, we’re joined by nutrition expert Dr. Donald Hensrud, a Mayo Clinic physician in Preventative Medicine. He is also the medical director for the Mayo Clinic Healthy Living Program here in Rochester and editor in chief of two books on dieting, The Mayo Clinic Diet and The Mayo Clinic Diabetes Diet.

Exercise is Medicine: Adding Years to Life and Life to Years

This episode was recorded in April, 2020. Guest: Daniel A. Diedrich, M.D. Host: Halena M. Gazelka, M.D. (@hmgazelkamd) COVID-19 was first identified late last year with a cluster of pneumonia cases caused by a new coronavirus. The COVID-19 disease process heavily affects the respiratory system, and patients often need oxygen support. The respiratory therapist plays a critical role in managing oxygen levels, placing breathing tubes, and managing the mechanical ventilator, when necessary. On the Mayo Clinic Q&amp;A podcast, Dr. Daniel Diedrich, a Mayo Clinic anesthesiologist and critical care physician, discusses the role of the respiratory therapist from the time a patient presents with COVID-19 all the way through that patient's discharge.
