5 Simple Habits and Routines to Keep You Away from Depression and Stress

Following simple routines like exercising, eating the right food, taking energy supplements, meditating, and getting sufficient sleep can help to manage str...

A man in his early 40s with chest pain a " normal ECG " by computer algorithm. Should we avoid interrupting a physician to interpret his ECG?
This study looked at less than 1000 cases, which is not nearly enough (see below for analysis) and they used cardiologists as the gold standard (a very poor gold standard), NOT presence or absence of Occlusion MI (which we have done in all of our ECG studies, and must be ascertained by 1) TIMI 0/2 flow on angiogram or 2) culprit + TIMI 3 flow and very high troponin. So this study is worthless and must be ignored. I have here 38 cases of " Computer Normal " ECGs which were critically abnormal and the vast majority are missed acute coronary occlusions (Missed Acute OMI) and most were recognized ...

85 year old with chest pain, STEMI negative, then normal troponin but with relatively large delta: discharge?
Conclusion:This patient should NEVER have been ruled out by troponin.And the ECG findings, which are diagnostic of OMI, were also missed.Thus, this is the protocol Fred Apple and I developed for Hennepin for the Abbott Architect:==================================My Comment by KEN GRAUER, MD (3/24/2023):==================================I like this case by Dr. McLaren — because it allows us to highlight a very important fault of the outdated STEMI paradigm that is all-too-often forgotten — namely, Being sure to obtain and clinically correlate at least 2 serial ECGs&...

More Industrial Policy Won ’t Solve the Jones Act’s Many Problems
Colin Grabow andScott LincicomeWe at Cato have been happy to see a growing list of public officials, policy analysts, and everyday Americans join us in recognizing the Jones Act’s many problems. Among these new critics is the Niskanen Center, which last week publishedan essay characterizing theJones Act—a 1920 law restricting domestic waterborne transport to vessels that are U.S.-flagged, U.S.-built and mostly U.S.-owned and crewed—as “outdated industrial policy”. The Jones Act, the Niskanen piece added, is out of touch with economic reality, does not support the U.S. maritime industry, an d fails to advance na...

What ’ s Happening In Your Stomach? – Gastric Alimetry Review
Conclusion
The Gastric Alimetry device is a first-of-a-kind solution, fully fitting all principles of digital health. It is making patients the point of care and it targets a niche area with massive demand. I am eager to see where Body Surface Gastric Mapping develops in the coming years.
The total time requirement of such a test is significant, patients need to dedicate a total of 10.5 hours to it. The discomfort of the prolonged process is tolerable, many gastric diagnostic methods are much more demanding. If you have chronic NVS and would like to find a way to detect its causes, it is well worth the effort.

Lifestyle Medicine Could Be The Key To Digital Health Adoption
I’ve been wearing several generations and types of smartwatches for a couple of years and I only remove my watch when I shower. I use it to track my sleep and its smart alarm wakes me up at the optimal time every morning. With the pocketable Kardia, I regularly check my ECG at home to detect any anomalies. For an in-depth analysis of what my genetic makeup predisposes me to, I had my whole genome sequenced. And I bring relevant data to my general practitioner during my checkups so that we can decide on preventive measures. In short, I’m trying to live like the patient of the future, using lifestyle medicine to prev...

The (sort of, partial) Father mRNA Vaccines Who Now Spreads Vaccine Misinformation (Part 1)
By DAVID WARMFLASH, MD
Robert W. Malone, MD MS, is a physician-scientist who will live in infamy, thanks to the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast boosting his visibility this past December regarding his criticism of COVID-19 vaccines, particularly the mRNA vaccines (Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech). Subsequently, Malone was banned from Twitter, which further boosted his celebrity status. Describing himself as the inventor of mRNA vaccine technology, he has been reaching a growing number of people with a narrative that makes COVID-19 vaccination sound scary. We cannot embed clips from the Rogan interview, which lasted about three...

A man his 50s with chest pain. What happens when you treat with morphine rather than with reperfusion?
Written by Pendell MeyersA man in his late 50s presented to the ED with 3 days of left chest pain radiating into the jaw and neck. He described it as " heartburn. " The pain radiates into his left arm and causes numbness and tingling from time to time. The history does not state what changed on day 3 that made him finally present to the ED; the history has no details as to whether the pain was off and on, or fluctuating, or whether the pain become persistent soon before arrival (these are key details and would help with many important questions we will have below!). Vitals were normal, and his triage ECG is below, at...

A Man With Sudden Onset of Gastroparesis
By HANS DUVEFELT
Leo Dufour is not a diabetic. He is in his mid 50s, a light smoker with hypertension and a known hiatal hernia. He has had occasional heartburn and has taken famotidine for a few years along with his blood pressure and cholesterol pills.
Over the past few months, he started to experience a lot more heartburn, belching and bloating. Adding pantoprazole did nothing for him. I referred him to a local surgeon who did an upper endoscopy. This did not reveal much, except some retained food in his stomach. A gastric emptying study showed severe gastroparesis.
The surgeon offered him a trial of metoclopra...
