Nearly half of resident physicians report burnout<\/strong><\/a> – Resident physician burnout in the U.S. is widespread, with the highest rates concentrated in certain specialties, according to research from Mayo Clinic, OHSU and collaborators. The findings appear on Tuesday, Sept. 18, in the\u00a0Journal of the American Medical Association<\/i>. Physician burnout is a dangerous mix of exhaustion and depersonalization that contributes to physicians making mistakes while administering health care.\u00a0The study found 45 percent of respondents experienced at least one major symptom of burnout, with those in urology, neurology, emergency medicine and general surgery at the highest risk. Regardless of specialty, high levels of anxiety and low levels of empathy reported during\u00a0medical school<\/a>\u00a0were associated with burnout symptoms during residency.\u00a0\u201cOur data show wide variability in the prevalence of burnout by clinical specialty, and that anxiety, social support and empathy during medical school relate to the risk of burnout during residency,\u201d says Liselotte Dyrbye, M.D., a Mayo Clinic researcher and first author of the article.<\/p>\n

First gut bacteria may affect future ability to fight chronic diseases<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 – Differences in the first microorganisms that arrive in the gut after birth, and their order of arrival, have a lasting impact on how gastrointestinal system looks later in life, according to a study.\u00a0Researchers at the University of Alberta believe serious chronic diseases can be warded off by adjusting the microbiome of gastrointestinal tract, which is unique to the body \u2014 like fingerprints. Their findings were\u00a0published Tuesday<\/a> in the journal eLife.\u00a0\u201cEach of us harbors a microbiome that is vastly distinct, even for identical twins,\u201d microbial ecologist Dr. Jens Walter said in a University of Alberta\u00a0press release<\/a>. \u201cMicrobiomes are important for our health, but they appear to be shaped by many unknown factors, so it\u2019s hugely important to understand why we are all different.\u201d\u00a0Problems with the gastrointestinal system have been linked to obesity, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, inflammatory bowel disease, colon cancer, neurological disorders, autism and allergies.\u00a0\u201cIf we know what drives specific microbiomes in specific people, we can have a much more rational approach to potentially altering the microbiome, and developing strategies to address those diseases,\u201d Walter said.<\/p>\n

\u2018Spanish flu pandemic\u2019 could return, doctors warn<\/strong><\/a> – It was the deadliest\u00a0pandemic<\/a>\u00a0of the 20th\u00a0century, killing tens of\u00a0millions of people around the world in the months following the end of the\u00a0First World War<\/a>.\u00a0And as historians mark the centenary of the Spanish flu\u2019s outbreak this month, doctors are warning that a deadly\u00a0flu<\/a>\u00a0strain could return and spread across the globe.\u00a0Dr Fari Ahmad, a Cheshire GP, warned against the \u201ccomplacent\u201d assumption it could not happen in the 21st\u00a0century.\u00a0\u201cIn theory, yes,\u201d said the\u00a0NHS<\/a> practitioner when asked on\u00a0BBC Breakfast<\/em>\u00a0if we could experience something similar to the Spanish flu.\u00a0\u201cThe flu has not gone away completely and it\u2019s certainly not harmless,\u201d she explained.\u00a0\u201cWhen the Spanish flu happened I don\u2019t think people quite understood what was going on for a while.\u00a0\u201cWe understand how the flu spreads so I think we are in a better place, but I wouldn\u2019t say be complacent.\u201d\u00a0It is not know precisely where the 1918 Spanish flu began, but it took its name from the first cases discovered and publicized in Spain.\u00a0At its height, the disease\u00a0is believed to have infected a third of the world\u2019s population.<\/p>\n
