ONCE UPON A GENE - EPISODE 190 SCN8A Rare Mom - The Inch Stone Project and DEE-P Connections - Creating Better Tools, Resources and Research for the Most Severely Affected Families with Gabi Conecker Gabi Conecker is an incredible advocate who has worked in the rare disease space for over 10 years. She's accomplished a lot, all while caring for her for her son Elliot with SCN8A and a severe variant of epilepsy.  EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Where does your rare disease journey begin? My son Elliot was diagnosed with SCN8A in 2014, and there were only about ten known cases in the world. We founded Wishes for Elliot as a way of doing something when nothing was being done. It has evolved into the International SCN8A Alliance and we are focused on research, advancing the field, providing resources and supporting families.  What is DEE and DEE-P? Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs), is a hard to control form of epilepsy that cannot be treated with the drugs currently on the market, accompanied by developmental delays and/or regression. Developmental Epileptic Encephalopathy-Project (DEE-P) was formed to break through the isolation families face while researching their children's symptoms and challenges, to facilitate connections and share critical resources with families facing similar challenges. What is the Inchstone Project? The Inchstone Project is a multidisciplinary group of consumers, stakeholders, researchers and clinicians collaborating to accelerate outcome measures development. We came together to address an unmet need and to identify and develop tools to measure patient response to therapies. Our goal is to release a survey soon around head control so we can begin measuring and capturing data. We will continue to test and adapt the tools in preparation for clinical trials.  How can parents and other patient advocacy groups get involved? Visit our website and get in touch with me. For the Inchstone Project, we want to get as many families involved as possible so that when we're developing tools, your voice is heard and you can ensure your child is included.  LINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED 2023 CTNNB1 Natural History Study, Family Meeting, and Research Conference https://www.curectnnb1.org/research/research-conference/ Wishes for Elliot https://www.wishesforelliott.com/ International SCN8A Alliance https://scn8aalliance.org/ SCN8A Unraveled https://scn8aalliance.org/scn8a-unraveled/ DEE-P Connections https://deepconnections.net/resource-center-main/ Inchstone Project https://deepconnections.net/inchstone-project/ TUNE INTO THE ONCE UPON A GENE PODCAST Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5Htr9lt5vXGG3ac6enxLQ7 Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/once-upon-a-gene/id1485249347 Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/once-upon-a-gene Overcast https://overcast.fm/itunes1485249347/once-upon-a-gene CONNECT WITH EFFIE PARKS Website https://effieparks.com/ Twitter https://twitter.com/OnceUponAGene Instagram https://www.instagram.com/onceuponagene.podcast/?hl=en Built Ford Tough Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1877643259173346/ Interested in advertising on Once Upon a Gene?

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Nahid Punjani, M.D., M.P.H Testosterone has a variety of health benefits. It helps maintain bone density, muscle mass, red blood cell production and sexual function. Testosterone levels in men tend to peak between age 30 to 40 then gradually decline and it’s not unusual to find low testosterone levels in men over the age of 50. It’s also known that in men with hypogonadism, testosterone supplementation can improve libido, bone density and muscle mass. Should we be checking testosterone levels in our middle-age male patients? How do we determine who should receive testosterone supplementation and finally what are the risks of supplementation? In this podcast, these are all questions I’ll be asking our guest, Nahid Punjani, M.D., M.P.H, a urologist at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Testosterone Supplementation in Men”.

10,000 steps. It's canon at this point. That nice, round number should be our goal for the day. But WHY?? Where did this recommendation come from? Is there something magical about 10,000? What does research actually support?Breaking down the origins of the 10,000 daily step goal has been a hot topic in media lately, in part due to a recent study published by Kosuke Inoue, MD et al in the JAMA Open Network titled “Association of Daily Step Patterns With Mortality in US Adults”. In this episode we will WALK THROUGH this study and highlight key points and takeaways. Other points-of-interest in this episode include:The likely origins of the 10k-per-day step recommendationHow far is 10,000 steps?Are there actual measurable health benefits to reaching this daily goal?Can we achieve health outcomes with less than 10k steps daily?How can I track my steps?

Not everyone is brave enough to start a practice straight out of residency, much less to do so in Fairbanks, Alaska. But that didn’t stop Dr. Kara Hartl. She opened her practice with the goal of raising the bar and maintaining the Ivory Tower concept of practicing medicine and providing the highest standard of care to her patients. By providing top-notch medicine, her practice evolved into a multi-specialty medical center that was serving the needs of her community. This medical center ultimately brought life to what is now known as Troy Medical, named for a dear patient of hers who was suffering from multiple conditions outside of Dr. Kara’s field of expertise without access to a specialist. What can you do when you don’t have access to specialty health care in small or rural areas? Dr. Kara has revolutionized practice medicine with Troy Medical by offering specialists virtually to her patients by leveraging technology. Troy Medical operates by bringing fractional doctors and virtual medicine to the infrastructure of medical facilities using technology and medical imaging to provide the patient exam.  These facilities are unique in that they have a small footprint, allowing them to keep a relatively small overhead. With a staff of one person that has boots on the ground, they can refer patients to local services such as imaging, infusions, and labs while helping patients navigate technology and interpret medical diagnoses. She has locations in Fairbanks, AK, and Austin, TX, and looking to expand nationwide to continue to revolutionize healthcare in rural communities.  Tune in today to hear more about how Dr. Kara is meeting patients where they are while raising the bar of medical care. If you know of a community that could benefit from one of Troy Medical’s locations, reach out to Dr. Kara and help make medicine better for people everywhere!  “It is so much fun to practice medicine in an area where they desperately need you.” Dr. Kara Hartl Connect with Dr. Hartl: Troy Medical Dr. Kara Hartl 2 WAYS TO GET INCREDIBLE HELP AT A LOW-COST!!!

Price transparency has pushed hospitals to publish detailed information about what they charge for their services, including providing good faith estimates to patients. This initiative is a step forward in the effort to make healthcare costs more transparent and accessible for patients, but it may have value for rural hospitals beyond that. So, how do rural hospitals provide accurate prices to the public, while utilizing price transparency data to their advantage? On today’s episode, hosts JJ and Rachel talk with Martie Ross & Kathy Reep of PYA to discuss price transparency data and how to benefit from it.
