These findings demonstrate that cytokine levels are increased in patients after remission of Cushing disease, which could explain the persistent increased risk of cardiovascular-related death. The study, led by Eliza Geer, MD, a professor of endocrinology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, notes that more studies are needed to determine why levels of IL-6 and IL-1β remain elevated after remission of Cushing disease. - Eliza Geer, MD, Associate Professor, Medicine, Endocrinology, Diabetes and Bone Disease, Neurosurgery, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Learn more: http://www.nature.com/nrendo/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nrendo.2016.170.html WCBS – September 29 ‘Artificial Pancreas’ Expected To Make Life Easier, Healthier For Type 1 Diabetes Patients — Max Gomez A groundbreaking new device could change the lives of millions of people living with diabetes. Federal regulators just approved an artificial pancreas that can monitor and administer insulin. The key is a computer algorithm that does those calculations faster and more accurately than a patient can. “It looks at the numbers from a moment to moment basis, and it will proactively predict what is going to happen next and make clinical decisions that cannot be done at that rate.

Although addiction specialists welcome Probuphine, which delivers a constant dose of the drug buprenorphine over six months, at this early stage it's complicated for physicians to add it to their repertoire. Patients using Probuphine were 14 percent more likely to stay opioid-free compared to those using a daily sublingual version of buprenophine, according to a study published this month in JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association. So it's good to have another way to deliver medication-assisted treatment, says Richard Rosenthal, medical director of addiction psychiatry for the Mount Sinai Health System. Rosenthal was one of two principal investigators on a Probuphine clinical trial. "Everybody is waking up to the fact that we're in the midst of an opioid epidemic," says Rosenthal. "There are actually very few medications for addiction of any kind. Given the addiction treatment system in the United States, most of the treatment that's given is psychosocial. There's very little use of FDA-approved medications." - Richard N. Rosenthal.

This is our third annual winter meeting, and we anticipate another strong and dynamic conference! Each year we hold this meeting to address issues in residency training and propose solutions so that future generations of urologists receive the training they need and deliver our patients continually better care. This year, the meeting has been reduced from three days to two in order to minimize time spent out of the office, and maximize the educational value of the program. Houston, Texas is also a great, central location that is easy to travel to from all over the country. I also welcome the opportunity for some warmer weather in February. I want to first thank Drs. Kirsten Greene and Moben Mirza for volunteering to be the co-chairs for the 2019 meeting. They have developed a tremendous curriculum that will bring value to all of us who practice in academic urology. Notable sessions include: • How to Comply with Section VI of the Common Program Requirements • Review of the PGY-1 Year Curriculum • Self-Study Site Visits • Resident Debates on Well-being, Burnout and Morale Building • Career Development and Success We’re also thrilled to have Dr.

  • HEMATOLOGY-ONCOLOGY Overview
    HEMATOLOGY- ONCOLOGY HEMATOLOGY-ONCOLOGY Overview The Brown University/Lifespan Hematology/ Oncology group was formed when The Miriam Hospital Hematology/Oncology Division, the Rhode Island Hospital Division of Hematology and the Rhode Island Hospital Department of Medical Oncology merged in 1999. Our mission is to achieve academic excellence in basic research, clinical research and education, and to provide the highest quality of care to our patients. The creation of a Comprehensive Cancer Center, which is a collaborative effort to provide coordi- nated and comprehensive care for cancer patients at three Lifespan hospitals (The Miriam Hospital, Rhode Island Hospital and Newport Hospital), has now become a reality. Both the patients and the staff appreciate the many benefits afforded by the new Comprehensive Cancer Center at The Miriam Hospital which opened in May 2002. Extensive renovations to the George Clinic at Rhode Island Hospital were completed as a temporary measure. The groundbreaking ceremony for the Comprehen- sive Cancer Center at Rhode Island Hospital was held on April 28, 2003 with an anticipated opening in February 2004. A recent goal has been the establishment of multi- disciplinary clinics for all the major malignancies. This conveniently allows the patient to receive the Edward Wittels, M.D., Associate Professor of expertise of the surgeon, radiation oncologist and Medicine; Interim Director of Hematology- medical oncologist at the time of their first visit.
