• ENP99: Fracture Liaison Services

  Recently the Endocrine Society’s Bone and Mineral Special Interest Group discussed the importance of fracture liaison services and how they contribute to an improved quality of life for patients and cost saving for the facility. An important part of the discussion revolved around a recent perspective published in The New England Journal of Medicine titled, “Coordinating Multidisciplinary Care — Improving Outcomes after Fragility Fractures.” The article notes that despite the benefits of fracture liaison services, the lack of reimbursement for those services in the United States is a significant financial barrier, rendering the service underutilized. The article further states that the global burden of hip fractures is expected to double over the next few decades. Are we looking at an impending crisis? What role should fracture liaison services play in reducing treatment gaps and improving post-fracture care? Host Aaron Lohr talks with the three authors of that New England Journal of Medicine perspective: Nicola Napoli, MD, PhD, associate professor of endocrinology and metabolism at Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome, Italy; Peter Ebeling, AO, professor medicine at Monash University in Melbourne, Vic., Australia; and Douglas P. Kiel, MD, professor of medicine at Marcus Institute for Aging Research at Hebrew Senior Life.

• ENP98: Opioids and the Endocrine System

  Increased prescription of opioid medications like oxycodone and hydrocodone has led to widespread misuse of both prescription and non-prescription opioids. But did you know that opioid misuse can significantly impact the endocrine system? The Endocrine Society recently published a scientific statement titled, “Exogenous Opioids and the Human Endocrine System: An Endocrine Society Scientific Statement.” The statement reviews data on the use and misuse of opioids and discusses recent research on the endocrine-related implications of opioid use. Host Aaron Lohr talks to one of the statement’s authors, Niki Karavitaki, MD, PhD, a professor from the Institute of Metabolism and Systems Research at the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom.

• ENP97: Childhood Obesity Treatment

  What treatment options are available for children and adolescents with obesity? Host Aaron Lohr takes on this topic with Susan J. Woolford, MD, associate professor in the Child Health Evaluation and Research Center at the University of Michigan, and Sarah Giger, MD, a clinical fellow at Cincinnati’s Children’s Hospital. Both took part in the Endocrine Society’s recent obesity fellows conference. This episode is supported by an educational grant from Lilly and Novo Nordisk.

• ENP96: Automated Insulin Delivery Systems

  There is a lot of interest in automated insulin delivery systems, and they were covered in depth at the Endocrine Society’s Type 1 Diabetes Fellows Series, held earlier this year. Joining host Aaron Lohr to talk about these delivery systems is Grazia Aleppo, MD, a professor of medicine at Northwestern University and a presenter at the T1D Fellows Series.

• ENP95: Environmental Impact on Early Female Puberty

  There are plenty of studies showing that chemicals found in the environment can directly impact human health. Some new research finds that certain environmental compounds may trigger early female puberty. Joining host Aaron Lohr to talk about that research is Natalie Shaw, MD, a Lasker clinical research scholar and principal investigator of the pediatric neuroendocrinology group in the Clinical Research Branch of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. Dr. Shaw and colleagues authored an article recently published in the journal Endocrinology titled, “Identification of Environmental Compounds That May Trigger Early Female Puberty by Activating Human GnRHR and KISS1R.” Show notes are available at https://www.endocrine.org/podcast/enp95-environmental-impact-on-early-female-puberty — for helpful links or to hear more podcast episodes, visit https://www.endocrine.org/podcast
