Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Joseph Murray, M.D. Celiac Disease affects approximately 1% of the population worldwide and can present at any age, frequently with very subtle, atypical or at times entirely non-GI symptoms. The presentation can be extremely diverse and may involve a variety of organ systems. If not recognized and effectively treated, multiple potentially serious complications can develop. Primary care clinicians are often the initial point of contact, and we need to know the common presenting symptoms, which tests should be ordered when we suspect the disease and when a referral is necessary. We also play a role in long-term management by monitoring for nutritional deficiencies, bone integrity, and the patient’s adherence to a gluten-free diet. In this podcast, we’ll explore Celiac Disease with my guest, Dr. Joseph Murray, a gastroenterologist from the Mayo Clinic, and a nationally recognized specialist in Celiac Disease. We’ll focus on practical information you can apply to your practice. Connect with us! Mayo Clinic Talks Podcast Season 6 | Mayo Clinic School of Continuous Professional Development
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Uma Thanarajasingham, M.D., Ph.D. Systemic lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease with a variety of immunologic and laboratory abnormalities. It has numerous clinical manifestations potentially involving multiple organs. It’s known as the great imitator because it can mimic a variety of other diseases, and it’s not uncommon for patients to have symptoms for a number of years prior to a diagnosis being established. What symptoms should alert us to the possibility of lupus? What do we do with a low titer, positive ANA? How is a firm diagnosis established and what role does the primary care clinician play in the management of those with lupus? I’ll be asking these questions and more of my guest, Dr. Uma Thanarajasingam from the Division of Rheumatology at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Lupus Today: Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment”.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Carl H. Cramer, III, M.D. Kidney transplantation has significantly improved the outlook for children with end-stage renal failure. The journey these children follow to transplantation starts in primary care with the recognition of chronic kidney disease, timely referral to nephrology, and long-term coordination of care with the transplant team. What are the most common health conditions which result in chronic kidney disease in children? What are some of the challenges faced in pediatric kidney transplantation and what do primary care clinicians need to know in caring for these children following kidney transplant? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest Dr. Carl Cramer, a pediatric nephrologist and specialist in pediatric renal transplantation at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Pediatric Kidney Transplant”.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Rebecca Ameduri, M.D. Most primary care clinicians see very few children with advanced heart failure or complicated congenital heart disease. However, when they are a part of our practice, they require timely referral and coordination with other medical specialties, as well as ongoing longitudinal and supportive care not only for the patient but also for their family. A heart transplant is a lifesaving and life-changing procedure for these patients. As the survival of these children improves, more transplant recipients are living into adulthood. For primary care clinicians, what are some early “red flag” symptoms that should raise our suspicion for cardiac failure? What tests should we order and when is the best time for a child to be referred for consideration for a heart transplant? The topic for this podcast is “Pediatric Heart Transplant” and we’ll tackle these issues and more. My guest is Dr. Rebecca Ameduri, a pediatric cardiologist with special expertise in pediatric heart transplantation. Mayo Clinic Talks: Transplantation Series Connect with us!

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Lauren Jackson, M.D. Deep brain stimulation is an established management option for Parkinson’s Disease. It’s a neurosurgical procedure in which thin electrodes are implanted into various areas of the brain and then connected to a pulse generator that produces electrical stimulation which modulates abnormal brain activity. The procedure has the potential to improve the quality of life in those with Parkinson’s by reducing motor symptoms including tremor, rigidity and bradykinesia. It also enables a reduction in doses of dopaminergic medications. Who’s a candidate for this procedure? Is there an optimal time in the course of the disease to perform it? What can patients expect in terms of symptom improvement? How long do patients see benefits? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Lauren Jackson, a neurologist from the Department of Neurology at the Mayo Clinic. The topic for this podcast is “Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease”. Connect with us! Mayo Clinic Talks Podcast Season 6 | Mayo Clinic School of Continuous Professional Development
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Forrest Sturgill, M.D. Parkinson’s Disease is a relatively common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor symptoms such as bradykinesia, rigidity and resting tremor, as well as non-motor symptoms such as autonomic dysfunction, mood disorders and cognitive changes. The diagnosis is established with a medical history and physical exam. Parkinson’s is truly a disorder where the neurologist needs to work with the primary care clinician to provide optimal care of the patient. What are the typical presenting symptoms of Parkinson’s? Is an urgent referral to a neurologist necessary? When should pharmacologic treatment be started? The topic for this podcast is “Advancements in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease” and these are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Forrest Sturgill, a neurologist in the Department of Neurology at the Mayo Clinic.

Host: 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”.

Host: 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”.
