Early Life Nutrition and the Developing Brain
J Fam Pract. 2023 Jul;72(6 Suppl):S25-S30. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0619.ABSTRACTThe developmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD) hypothesis suggests prenatal nutrition sets the stage for the developing brain, with effects that last into adulthood. Macronutrient and micronutrient requirements increase in pregnancy and deficiencies can influence fetal neurodevelopment and cognition. Foods such as eggs, meat, and seafood contain many of the nutrients needed for healthy neurodevelopment and intake should be encouraged among women of reproductive age. Family practice clinicians play an important role in providing nutrition rec...

Acute Pain in Perspective
J Fam Pract. 2023 Jul;72(6 Suppl):S7-S12. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0617.ABSTRACTAcute pain is a common and nearly universal experience that usually has a sudden onset and is limited in duration. It is a normal physiologic response to a noxious stimulus that can become pathologic if untreated or not treated effectively. Acute pain has a limited duration (<1 month) and often is caused by injury, trauma, or medical treatments such as surgery. Primary care practitioners (PCPs) who encounter patients with acute pain can help preserve function and quality of life and prevent progression to chronic pain by implementing appropriate ma...

Reducing Ischemic Stroke in Diabetes: The Role of GLP-1 RAs
J Fam Pract. 2023 Jul;72(6 Suppl):S55-S60. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0624.ABSTRACTStroke is a significant cause of mortality worldwide, and diabetes is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke occurrence and recurrence. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) lower the risk of ischemic stroke through beneficial effects on traditional stroke risk factors such as hyperglycemia, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Primary care practitioners (PCPs) can play a substantial role in reducing ischemic stroke; studies have indicated that patients who have a PCP at the time of first stroke have a lower risk of stroke recurren...

Use of ICS and Fast-Acting Bronchodilators in Asthma: Past, Present, and Future
J Fam Pract. 2023 Jul;72(6 Suppl):S61-S70. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0625.ABSTRACTPrimary care practitioners (PCPs) play a key role in asthma management since most patients with asthma are treated in primary care settings. Despite continual advances in asthma care, important practice gaps remain, and the high burden of asthma exacerbations persists, with 43% of children with asthma and 41% of adults with asthma in the United States experiencing an asthma exacerbation in 2020. Uncontrolled asthma, incomplete assessment of exacerbation and asthma control history, reliance on systemic corticosteroids (SCS) or short-acting beta2-agoni...

Reducing Cardiopulmonary Risk and Exacerbations in COPD
J Fam Pract. 2023 Jul;72(6 Suppl):S49-S54. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0623.ABSTRACTNew updates in the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) 2023 report include major changes to initial disease assessment and pharmacologic therapy, highlighting the clinical relevance of exacerbations. The updated GOLD 2023 algorithms offer a shorter path to consideration of triple therapy, including both initial and follow-up treatment. Most mild- or moderate-severity chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations can be successfully managed in outpatient settings; primary care clinicians have many opportunities t...

Early Intervention by Family Physicians to Delay Type 1 Diabetes
J Fam Pract. 2023 Jul;72(6 Suppl):S19-S24. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0618.ABSTRACTType 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease mediated by T cells that target and destroy insulin-producing beta cells. Individuals with genetic risk of T1D will progress at variable rates through 3 stages of immune activation and development of islet autoimmunity. Measuring pancreatic islet cell autoantibodies predicts risk for progression that can take weeks to years before the onset of T1D. Screening options available to family physicians can identify persons at risk or in the early stages of T1D, such as first- and second-degree relatives or tho...
