Advanced Medicine Radio Show | 12-17-2018<\/a><\/p>\n

Get ready to learn things not traditionally taught to medical doctors!<\/strong>
\nSome of the things you will hear Dr. Buttar and Robert talk about in this week’s show are:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Everything about Lyme disease is steeped in controversy. Now some doctors are too afraid to treat patients<\/strong><\/a> – Bruce Shilton\u2019s crippling fatigue left him bedridden for six months. Sue Faber was so forgetful, she couldn\u2019t remember her daughters\u2019 birthdates. And Andrea Smith\u2019s relentless aches sent her into a deep depression.\u00a0All three Canadians say they are struggling with a chronic form of Lyme disease and feel abandoned by Canada\u2019s health-care system.\u00a0 The challenge for them, and other patients with Lyme, is that the medical community is divided on how best to diagnose and treat this controversial disease.\u00a0On one side of this deep divide are mainstream doctors who say Lyme is easy to diagnose with standard testing, and the prevailing treatment \u2014 a short course of antibiotics \u2014 is enough to kill the bacteria that causes the disease. They believe patients who think they have chronic Lyme but have no evidence of infection are grappling with other illnesses and that treating for Lyme masks the real cause of their symptoms and does more harm than good.<\/p>\n

\u2018Transmissible\u2019 Alzheimer\u2019s theory gains traction<\/strong><\/a> – Neuroscientists have amassed more evidence for the hypothesis that sticky proteins that are a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases\u00a0can be transferred between people under particular conditions<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 and cause new damage in a recipient\u2019s brain.\u00a0They stress that their research does not suggest that disorders such as Alzheimer\u2019s disease are contagious, but it does raise concern that certain medical and surgical procedures pose a risk of transmitting such proteins between humans, which might lead to brain disease decades later.\u00a0\u201cThe risk may turn out to be minor \u2014 but it needs to be investigated urgently,\u201d says John Collinge, a neurologist at University College London who led the research, which is published in\u00a0Nature<\/i>1<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0on 13 December.\u00a0The work follows up on a\u00a0provocative study published by Collinge\u2019s team in 2015<\/a>2<\/a><\/sup>. The researchers discovered extensive deposits of a protein called amyloid-beta during post-mortem studies of the brains of four people in the United Kingdom. They had been treated for short stature during childhood with growth-hormone preparations derived from the pituitary glands of thousands of donors after death.<\/p>\n

Chronic fatigue: Overactive immune system \u2018may trigger ME-like symptoms\u2019<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 – An overactive immune system may help explain the cause of chronic fatigue syndrome, scientists from King\u2019s College London have suggested.\u00a0Many sufferers of CFS, or ME, say their condition began with a challenge to their immune system like an infection.\u00a0The scientists studied 55 patients with Hepatitis C who were given a drug that causes a similar response to a virus.\u00a0Eighteen of those patients had an overactive immune system and went on to develop CFS-like symptoms.\u00a0Chronic fatigue syndrome is a long-term illness characterised by extreme tiredness.\u00a0Scientists from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King\u2019s College recruited 55 patients who had hepatitis C. The standard treatment for hepatitis C is the drug interferon-alpha which challenges the immune system in the same way as a powerful infection.\u00a0The team measured fatigue and immune markers before, during and after treatment, tracking which people developed the persistent CFS-like illness.\u00a0In the 18 patients who developed CFS-like symptoms the team found a much stronger immune response to the medication. Significantly these patients also had an overactive immune system before the treatment started.<\/p>\n

Parachutes do NOT save the lives of people who jump from aeroplanes, claim sarcastic scientists in a study designed to reveal how flawed \u2018research\u2019 can be<\/strong><\/a> – Parachutes do not save the lives of people who jump from aeroplanes, or so a study suggests.\u00a0In a trial of 23 volunteers, all participants somehow survived being hurtled out of a plane \u2013 even those without parachutes.\u00a0But the sarcastic scientists didn\u2019t mention until 16 paragraphs into the study how the volunteers\u00a0jumped a mere 0.6m off a stationary aircraft.\u00a0\u00a0The scientists argued their lighthearted trial highlights how misleading research can be.\u00a0Writing in the Christmas edition of the British Medical Journal, they added accurate interpretation requires a \u2018complete and critical appraisal of the study\u2019.\u00a0The \u2018Look Before You Leap\u2019 study was carried out by scientists at Harvard and led by associate professor of medicine Dr Robert Wayne Yeh. Although written in good fun, the scientists hope their findings will prompt people to read studies in full rather than taking a \u2018cursory reading of the abstract\u2019.<\/p>\n
