#86 Female Genital Cutting in Northern Sudan—Breaking A Taboo
Female genital cutting, or FGC, has a number of negative physical and psychological effects, and can lead to death by severe bleeding. MSF arrived in the Tagadom area of Red Sea State in 2006 to raise awareness about the medical effects of FGC and to offer high-quality, free-of-charge maternity services. First, however, the teams had to begin a very difficult, and ultimately very rewarding process of talking about these and other taboo subjects. (Source: MSF Podcasts)

I've been bleeding from the bowels
GP Dr Andrew Knight talks to Dr Kathryn O'Connor about his approach to assessment and management of case study "Serge" who presents saying "I've been bleeding from the bowels".

Interview with Steven R. Steinhubl, MD, author of Aspirin Dose for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease. Summary Points: 1. While aspirin is generally a safe drug and extremely effective, with more than 50 million US adults taking it every day for cardiovascular disease prevention, even a very small incidence of adverse effects can have major implications. Consistent with this, one study found that the most common medication leading to an adverse event requiring hospitalization was aspirin for cardiovascular disease prevention. 2. In terms of preventing heart attacks, strokes, or cardiovascular deaths, no clinical tria...
