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: Exactly. Eric: Oh, you were?

I’m unsure what they do, how often they’re used, and who pays for their work. Jane: Right.

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. Jason: So this drug upfront is a bit of work. MRIs prior, genetic testing prior. Eric: PET scans.

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.

Michele: Yeah, so in May of 2018, there was an article by Suleika Jaouad in the New York Times Magazine, and they spent about two weeks in our hospice with us learning about the work that’s done. And so the article focuses on the work of these three men who were mostly gang involved and did something really bad when they were young.

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. Let me ask you a question. They had no idea. And they suck at it for a lot of reasons.

A review article, which I still like to go to. It is kind of weird that my first publication was in jama, part of the Care of the Aging Patient series. Alex 16:55 My guess is probably not something that most geriatricians or internists or family medicine docs caring for older people have on their differential diagnosis.

It was in the mid-nineties, and about half of the patients that we cared for in the inpatient service were homeless. We would drill down on the tenth differential diagnosis of medium vessel vasculitis, and then we would discharge them back out to the streets. But nothing in healthcare. We would admit them to the hospital.

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.
