  • S5 E1: GP motivations; morning after pill & NSAIDs; cancer risk with non-erosive GORD
    Welcome to Season 5 of the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker. Despite celebrating our 25th birthday (don't forget to check out our NB Plus birthday special here) the world of medical news and research never stops. In this episode we look at research in the BJGP about the motivations behind being a GP, whether adding NSAIDs may improve efficacy of emergency contraception, and whether we should be worried about cancer in patients with reflux.www.nbmedical.comReferencesBJGP Mapping GP MotivationsLancet Levonorgestrel + piroxicam for ECBMJ Non-erosive reflux and oesophageal cancer risk

  • S4 E15: Donanemab & Alzheimer's Disease; Diet Against Dementia; Weekend Exercise; Opioids & Acute Back Pain
    Welcome to the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker.  School's out for summer but general practice never stops. This week we look at the medical news story of the week: donanemab for Alzheimer's disease - can this monoclonal antibody revolutionise dementia care? Also in research, prevention is better than a cure, so can a Mediterranean-DASH diet keep cognitive decline at bay? For you weekend warriors out there, is cramming exercise into the weekend as good as exercising throughout the week. A new paper in JAMA answers this question. And is there ANY role for opioids in acute back pain? A new Australian study goes strong to see if there is benefit with this common problem.Don't forget to check out all our upcoming courses including the new Hot Topics course in September and much more on www.nbmedical.com.

In Just One More Thing we are joined by Dr. Jim Moore, chair of the Primary Care Cardiovascular Society, where we discuss cholesterol lowering therapies, new ways to treat heart failure, and how we may meet government targets for blood pressure control - can and should it all be done in general practice?In news, is it good news as GPs are primed to solve the obesity crisis with semaglutide? And in research we look at a BMJ paper hoping to radically change how we monitor patients taking methotrexate, and in JAMA a new paper looks at strategies for helping patients stop opioids for chronic pain.ResourcesPrimary Care Cardiovascular Society websiteBMJ Methotrexate monitoring JAMA Chronic opioid withdrawalMy Opioid ManagerPodcast Transcript
