Healthy vs pathological microvascular aging? New research showing myocardial blood flow reserve is higher in young males compared with females, and decreases with age in both sexes. Saint Luke's Mid America Heart Institute Saint Luke's CircImaging ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…


Big fan of Derek Thompson. But as an MD who studied economics, this episode misses the mark. Biggest issues driving costs: 1) American lifestyle is not healthy (diet, exercise, stress) 2) Too many middle men who want profits 3) Patient/doc/hosp desire to overtest (risk aversion and $)

Congratulations Sharmila Dorbala for leading this study and kicking it off with the first patient enrolled!

Reminder to everyone who got their MDs in the last 24 hours that PSA screening for prostate cancer after age 70 is not recommended. Maybe, just maybe, his physicians were practicing evidence based medicine as opposed to orchestrating a cover-up? uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/uspstf/recomme…
