<title>Neuromuscular Diseases and Health Consequences of Hearing Loss-Neuromuscular Diseases and Health Consequences of Hearing Loss</title>
<itunes:summary><![CDATA[There are more than 600 types of neurologic and neuromuscular diseases that can affect your nervous system. The nervous system includes the brain, spinal cord and nerves that control all the workings of the body. When something goes wrong with a part of your nervous system, you can have trouble moving, speaking, swallowing or breathing. Other problems can develop with your memory, senses or mood. Two such diseases are muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis (MS).

Muscular dystrophy is a group of diseases that cause progressive weakness and loss of muscle mass. In muscular dystrophy, abnormal genes (mutations) interfere with the production of proteins needed to form healthy muscle.

In MS, the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body. Eventually, the disease can cause nerves to deteriorate or become permanently damaged.

On the Mayo Clinic Radio program, Dr. Jennifer Martinez-Thompson, a Mayo Clinic neurologist, discusses treatment options for muscular dystrophy and MS. Also on the program, Dr. Erica Loomis, a Mayo Clinic trauma and critical care surgeon, explains what causes intestinal obstruction and how it's treated. And Dr. Colin Driscoll, a Mayo Clinic otolaryngologist, tells us about the health consequences of untreated hearing loss.]]></itunes:summary>

Most cases of colorectal cancer begin as small, noncancerous (benign) clumps of cells called polyps. Over time, some polyps become colon cancer. Because these polyps may be small and produce few, if any, symptoms, health care providers recommend regular screening tests to prevent colon cancer. These screenings identify and remove polyps before they become cancerous. March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness month, a time to educate the public about the importance of colorectal cancer screening.

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women. While men and women are affected by heart disease, the warning signs and symptoms can be quite different. The most common heart attack symptom in women is the same as in men  some type of chest pain, pressure or discomfort that lasts more than a few minutes, or comes and goes. But chest pain is not always severe or even the most noticeable symptom, particularly in women. Women often describe it as pressure or tightness. And it's possible to have a heart attack without chest pain. February is recognized as American Heart Month to promote heart-healthy lifestyles, and the American Heart Association has designated Feb. 7 as National Wear Red Day. These events are intended to increase womens awareness about their risk for heart disease and stroke.
On the next Mayo Clinic Radio program, Dr. Rekha Mankad, a Mayo Clinic cardiologist, will discuss womens heart health.

<title>Vasectomy Reversal and Male Infertility-Vasectomy Reversal and Male Infertility</title>
<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Each year, more than 500,000 men in America have a vasectomy, which is a procedure that makes a man sterile. Vasectomy is done by cutting or blocking two tubes, called the vas deferens, so that sperm cant get into the semen. Sometimes, due to a change in life circumstance, men decide they want to be able to father another child. Vasectomy reversal is a procedure to reconnect the vas deferens and return the ability to impregnate a partner. Pregnancy rates after vasectomy reversal will range from about 30% to over 90%, depending on the type of procedure. Many factors affect whether a reversal successfully achieves pregnancy, including time since a vasectomy, partner age, surgeon experience and training, and whether there were fertility issues before a vasectomy.
On the next Mayo Clinic Radio program, Dr. Sevann Helo, a Mayo Clinic urologist, will discuss vasectomy reversal and male infertility.

<title>Celiac Disease Plus Eating Smart During the Holidays-eliac Disease Plus Eating Smart During the Holidays</title>
<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Celiac disease is an immune reaction to eating gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye. If you have celiac disease, eating gluten triggers an immune response in your small intestine. Over time, this reaction damages your small intestine's lining and prevents it from absorbing some nutrients. The intestinal damage often causes diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss, bloating and anemia, and can lead to serious complications. In children, malabsorption can affect growth and development, besides causing the symptoms seen in adults. While there's no cure for celiac disease, for most people, following a strict gluten-free diet can help manage symptoms and promote intestinal healing.

On the next Mayo Clinic Radio program, Dr. Joseph Murray, a Mayo Clinic gastroenterologist, will discuss diagnosing and treating celiac disease. Also on the program, Dr. Amy Degnim, a Mayo Clinic breast cancer surgeon, will explain ductal carcinoma in situ, which is considered to be the earliest form of breast cancer. And Katherine Zeratsky, a Mayo Clinic registered dietician nutritionist, will offer tips for eating smart during the holidays.]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Gastroesophageal reflux disease, also known as GERD, affects an estimated 1 in 5 American adults. GERD occurs when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus from the stomach. The lining of your esophagus is more delicate than the lining of your stomach, so acid in your esophagus causes a burning sensation. While many people experience reflux from time to time, GERD is defined by reflux occurring weekly. Most people can manage the discomfort of GERD with lifestyle changes and over-the-counter medications. But some people with GERD may need stronger medications or surgery to ease symptoms.
On the next Mayo Clinic Radio program, Dr. Jeffrey Alexander, a Mayo Clinic gastroenterologist, will discuss GERD treatment and prevention.

Binge drinking is a pattern of drinking where a male consumes five or more drinks within two hours or a female consumes at least four drinks within two hours. Heavy drinking can cause hepatic steatosis, or increased fat in the liver, and alcoholic hepatitis, or inflammation of the liver.

<title>Prostate Health and Treatment Options-Mayo Clinic Radio: Prostate Health</title>
<itunes:summary><![CDATA[For men over 50, prostate problems are common. The prostate gland is located just below the bladder and surrounds the top portion of the urethra, which is the tube that drains urine from the bladder. The prostate's primary function is to produce the fluid that nourishes and transports sperm.

As men age, the prostate gland tends to grow larger. Benign prostatic hyperplasia, also called prostate gland enlargement, can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder, or bladder, urinary tract or kidney problems. Fortunately, a wide variety of treatments are available for enlarged prostate, including medication, minimally invasive therapies and surgery.]]></itunes:summary>

<title>Pituary Tumors-Mayo Clinic Radio: Pituitary tumors</title>
<itunes:summary><![CDATA[The pituitary gland is a hormone-producing gland at the base of the brain. Sometimes known as the "master gland," the pituitary gland produces and regulates hormones that help the body function. Pituitary tumors are abnormal growths that develop in your pituitary gland.

Some pituitary tumors result in too many of the hormones that regulate important functions of your body. Some pituitary tumors can cause your pituitary gland to produce lower levels of hormones. Most pituitary tumors are noncancerous (benign) growths that remain in your pituitary gland or surrounding tissues, and don't spread to other parts of your body. There are various options for treating pituitary tumors, including removing the tumor, controlling its growth and managing your hormone levels with medications. Your health care provider also may recommend a wait-and-see approach.]]></itunes:summary>

The test detects asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction, which is a precursor to heart failure. Asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction affects 7 million Americans, and is associated with reduced quality of life and longevity. But asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction is treatable when identified. The research team found that the AI/EKG test accuracy compares favorably with other common screening tests, such as mammography for breast cancer. The findings were published in Nature Medicine.]]></itunes:summary>

When chronic kidney disease reaches an advanced stage, dangerous levels of fluid, electrolytes and wastes can build up in your body. In the early stages of chronic kidney disease, you may have few signs or symptoms. The only way to find out for sure whether you have chronic kidney disease is through blood and urine tests. If untreated, chronic kidney disease can lead to nerve damage, weakened bones, cardiovascular disease and a higher risk of heart attack and stroke.]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[It's not a discussion anyone wants to have, but, when its time for end-of-life care, there are decisions to be made and questions to answer for patients and families. Questions about palliative care, hospice, life support and feeding tubes can add to the emotional impact of this time of life. To ease the stress and worry, having an advance directive and designated health care proxy are important steps to take. An advance directive is a legal document stating your preferences for medical care if you are unable to make decisions for yourself. A health care proxy is a person you name to make decisions for you when you are unable to do so.]]></itunes:summary>

<title>Brachial plexus injury-Mayo Clinic Radio:  Brachial plexus injury</title>
<itunes:summary><![CDATA[The brachial plexus is the network of nerves that sends signals from your spinal cord to your shoulder, arm and hand. A brachial plexus injury occurs when these nerves are stretched, compressed, or in the most serious cases, ripped apart or torn away from the spinal cord. Minor brachial plexus injuries, known as "stingers" or "burners," are common in contact sports, such as football. Babies sometimes sustain brachial plexus injuries during birth. The most severe brachial plexus injuries usually result from auto or motorcycle accidents.

Treatment for a brachial plexus injury depends on several factors, including the type and severity of the injury, the length of time since the injury, and other existing conditions. Nerves that have only been stretched may recover without further treatment; whereas, other injuries may require physical therapy. The most severe injuries can require nerve graft or nerve transfer surgery.]]></itunes:summary>

<title>Redefining Alzheimer's disease-Mayo Clinic Radio:    Redefining Alzheimers disease</title>
<itunes:summary><![CDATA[An estimated 5.5 million Americans are living with Alzheimers disease, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Alzheimer's disease progressively destroys memory and other mental functions. Traditionally, a diagnosis is made by evaluating symptoms and cognitive behavior associated with the disease. But, in April, a team of scientists with the Alzheimer's Association and the National Institute on Aging proposed a new Alzheimer's disease research framework. Under the new framework, the definition of Alzheimers disease in living people  for use in research  is not based on cognitive changes and behavioral symptoms. Instead, the disease is diagnosed by its neuropathology. This shifts thinking that symptoms are a consequence of the disease  not the definition of the disease. Scientists hope a change in definition will enable research to better target patients, so clinical trials will be more effective.]]></itunes:summary>

Aortic valve disease is a condition in which the valve between the main pumping chamber of the heart (left ventricle) and the main artery to the body (aorta) doesn't work properly. Treatment for aortic valve disease depends on the severity of the condition, whether or not there are signs and symptoms, and if the condition is getting worse. For the most serious cases, aortic valve repair or replacement surgery might be needed to fix the problem.]]></itunes:summary>

Unfortunately, many people awaiting transplant never get the call saying that a suitable donor organ  and a second chance at life  has been found.
