This all came out from JAGS just published their first Clin-STAR corner, which is, and we’ll talk about what that is, but it’s a series of articles bringing in specialists to talk about updates in the last couple years within their field. Mody for the mentorship and for the opportunity to bring together these articles.

First, we talk with Christine, a researcher and geriatrician from the University of North Carolina, who recently published a JAGS article titled Overdiagnosis of urinary tract infections by nursing home clinicians versus a clinical guideline.

We got a couple of articles to discuss and a lot of different components of this. I was wondering, because Alex did mention that we talked with Jessie before about whether or not we should be teaching some of this stuff in palliative care fellowships. Eric: Which brings us to an article. Jessie: Yes. Jessie: Exactly.

Juliet, last time we talked to you, you were talking about shifting from advanced care planning to serious illness conversations. You’re a senior author on this article in JPSM, where you interviewed some geriatricians and other people caring for older adults, nurse practitioners, social workers, et cetera. Brad: Yeah.

There is a lot to digest with these draft clinical guidelines but the big change from the 2018 guideline is moving Alzheimers to a biological diagnosis (biomarker evidence only) not just for a research framework but now from a clinical one. And we’ve been diagnosing it at Penn. Jason: So this drug upfront is a bit of work.

Because I remember there was an article maybe six months ago in JAGS, maybe it was longer than that, everybody was talking about ChatGPT-3.5, And the actors were blinded to whether this was a primary care doctor or a chat bot answering them.

One in 10 people with newly diagnosed HIV is an older adult. Our second guest, Meredith Greene, is a geriatrician and researcher who focuses on care of older adults living with HIV, in the US and Africa. A review article, which I still like to go to. And I also read that 1 out of 10 newly diagnosed HIV cases are in older adults.

So this is about two and a half, three years out from leukemia diagnosis. Here are some articles that Kira and I have written about the topic, and that’s really how my interest in addressing sexual health concerns started. So most of us in primary care, it’s probably even worse. And I said, sure.
