  2. Gastroenterology Podcast August 2014: Factors That Could Affect Colorectal Cancer Screening Strategies • American Gastroenterological Association (AGA)

    Gastroenterology Podcast August 2014: Factors That Could Affect Colorectal Cancer Screening Strategies

    A study in the August issue of Gastroenterology found little benefit to repeat colonoscopies within ten years of screening where no polyps were originally found. A related study by the same group found that age, sex, race, and ethnicity affect prevalence and location of large polyps and tumors in average-risk individuals. Dr. Kuemmerle speaks with the first author of both articles, Dr. David A. Lieberman of Oregon Health & Science University; Plus, a rundown of top stories from this month's issue of GI and Hepatology News.

  3. Gastroenterology Podcast August 2013: No Effects of Gluten in Patients with Self-Reported Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity After Dietary Reduction of FODMAPs • American Gastroenterological Association (AGA)

    Gastroenterology Podcast August 2013: No Effects of Gluten in Patients with Self-Reported Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity After Dietary Reduction of FODMAPs

    A study in the August issue of Gastroenterology looked at the specific effects of gluten after dietary reduction of fermentable, poorly absorbed, short-chain carbohydrates (fermentable, oligo-, di-, monosaccharides, and polyols [FODMAPs]) in subjects believed to have non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). The authors found no evidence of specific or dose-dependent effects of gluten in patients with NCGS-based diets that were low in FODMAPs. Dr. Kuemmerle speaks with author Dr. Peter R. Gibson of Monash University, The Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia; Plus, a rundown of top stories from this month's issue of GI and Hepatology News.

  4. A Holiday Challenge | The Weekly Briefly

    This is the last episode until after Christmas, and so I wanted to give a challenge for everyone heading in to the holiday time off.

    Rest well.

    It’s easier said than done, to be sure. But wouldn’t it be awesome to come back from your Christmas vacation with energy and motivation to do your best creative work? Wouldn’t it be awesome to come back feeling fueled up instead of tired and worn out?

    Here are a few ideas for how to rest well (and I’m not just talking about taking long naps):

    It’s okay to be alone for a bit every day. It can be exhausting being around our entire family for days and days on end.

    Read a real book.

    Don’t check Twitter or Facebook or Instagram or Email — I dare you to go a whole day, let alone the whole week.

    To keep your mind and creative juices flowing, come up with 5 ideas every day — but don’t worry about actually acting on them. Just exercise your brain.

    Go on a photo walk.

    Take lots of family portraits and pictures, but don’t Instagram them right away.

    Ask your spouse for the thing that is most important for them to do during the vacation, and then make it your first priority to help that happen.

    Ask one of your family members questions that will lead to more meaningful conversations. Such as asking about what is most challenging or most exciting to them right now.

  5. How Stephen Colbert Maintained His Flawless Character for 9 Years

    The curtain comes down on The Colbert Report Thursday night after a spectacular nine-year run on Comedy Central. But a big question remains: How on Earth did Colbert stay in character for so long?

    "Stephen Colbert," the character, is indisputably a brilliant creation. I watched every week because "Stephen Colbert" attacked right-wing media by embodying its most outlandish traits; the more sincere he was, the more searing and audacious the satire. He was sophisticated and simple at the same time. He gave viewers an amazing gift: temporary relief from the political divide by skewering idiocy at its source. (My colleague Inae Oh has compiled some of his best segments today).

    It was a wildly impressive formula, in part for the stamina it required from Stephen Colbert, the comic. As fellow performer Jimmy Fallon told the New York Times this week: "I was one of those who said, 'He'll do it for six months and then he'll move on.'…It's gets old. But not this. He's a genius."

    That's what makes the above podcast, Working, With David Plotz, so fascinating: It's Colbert, in his own words, out of character, describing his daily routine of getting into character; a real craftsman. It also reveals the vulnerable human performer within; a real artist.

    Broadcaster and media critic Brooke Gladstone said back in April that Colbert "seems to be a modest man, too modest perhaps, to see that by lightly shedding the cap of his creation, he's depriving us all of a national treasure."

    Long live Colbert.
