This is a re-posting of Episode 60 due to audio problems with the original posting. We know how helpful continuous glucose monitors are for individuals with diabetes, but might they be of benefit to individuals with prediabetes? Today host Aaron Lohr will talk with Hisham Farhan, MD, an endocrinology fellow at the University of Maryland Medical Center. Dr. Farhan and colleagues made an oral presentation at ENDO 2022 titled, “Impact of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) on Lifestyle Modifications in Individuals with Prediabetes.” For more information, including helpful links and other episodes, visit our website at .

This is a re-posting of Episode 59 due to audio problems with the original posting. Fructose is sweeter than glucose and is often added to processed foods as a sweetener, commonly in the form of high-fructose corn syrup. Some studies suggest that fructose consumption may be associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and some new research, recently presented at ENDO, addresses this issue. Host Aaron Lohr talks with one of the authors of this research, Theodore Friedman, MD, PhD, chairman of internal medicine at Charles R. Drew University of Medicine & Science and professor of medicine at University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. Friedman and colleagues’ oral presentation at ENDO 2022 is titled, “Fructose Consumption in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in U.S. Adult Population of NHANES 17-18” (NHANES being a national health and nutrition examination survey).

This is a re-posting of Episode 58 due to audio problems with the original posting. Today we shine a spotlight on a fascinating area of focus within endocrinology that maybe you haven't heard much about: oncoendocrinology. What is it, and how are health providers working together to care for patients who have endocrine conditions and cancer? Host Aaron Lohr talks with Afreen I. Shariff, MD, an endocrinologist at Duke University School of Medicine with expertise in endocrine disease in cancer patients. Dr. Shariff is the founding director of the Duke Endocrine-Oncology Program and an associate director for the Cancer Treatment Toxicity Program at the Duke Center for Cancer Immunotherapy. She also chairs the oncoendocrinology special interest group with the Endocrine Society, and she is a host of the podcast "Checkpoint NOW."

Host Aaron Lohr talks about new research on this topic presented at ENDO 2022 with one of the study's presenters, Melanie Schorr Haines, MD, assistant professor of medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital. Dr. Haines and colleagues' presentation at ENDO 2022 is titled, "Male Runners Have Impaired Tibial Cortical Bone Integrity and Strength Compared to Non-athletes."
