Allergist and immunologist Dr. Steve Dorman joins Dr. Michael Koren to discuss the causes, complications, and carousel of chronic cough. Dr. Dorman reviews what chronic cough is and how it may be due to anatomical changes, acid reflux, allergies, and so on. Because of this, the doctor explains, sufferers of cough may end up going around the "carousel" of chronic cough, where they end up seeing their primary care specialist, a GI doctor, an Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) specialist, pulmonary physicians, and an allergist and immunologist like himself. The duo then tackle what can be done, from medications, new research, and non-medicinal treatments.

OBGYN Dr. Richard Myers joins Dr. Erich Schramm to discuss the name change from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) to Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS). This syndrome is the combination of three parts: increased polyendocrine hormones (like insulin and androgens), changing metabolism, and differences in ovarian function Dr. Myers explains that the name change to PMOS reflects the changing understanding and focus of the syndrome from a purely ovarian-centered approach to a more holistic, full-body treatment regimen. The doctors also discuss how different patient desires drive different treatment options and the need for individualized, patient-centered care. They finish by looking at new treatments, including GLP-1 and GIP medications that can help address the underlying metabolic components of the PMOS.

Dermatologist Dr. Michael Bernhardt joins Dr. Mitchell Rothstein to discuss the rapidly changing and improving world of chronic skin condition. The two doctors discuss the correlation between chronic skin conditions and allergies, and the role that inflammation play in both. The docs then dive deep into our inflammation system.
This informs the next section of the podcast, where the Drs. Bernhardt and Rothstein talk about the landscape of chronic skin condition medications. They explain that these conditions had poor outcomes and ineffective medicines for decades, and that this picture has only changed in the last 4-5 years with new medications that work from the inside out instead of the outside in. They talk about new generations of medication that target the inflammatory signals themselves inside the body, showing rapid relief to otherwise untreatable conditions. They finish with a brief look at what is coming down the pipeline of clinical trials.

In this episode of MedEvidence, host Dr. Michael Koren speaks with epidemiologist Dr. Hannah Gardener about how everyday exposures may influence long-term health outcomes.
Dr. Gardener shares her journey from neuroscience and epidemiology training at Harvard to her current work studying stroke, dementia, and environmental risk factors. She explains how personal life experiences sparked her interest in environmental health and led her to examine how early-life and daily exposures can shape disease risk across the lifespan.
The conversation explores her research on diet soda consumption and its surprising associations with vascular outcomes, including stroke, heart disease, and cognitive decline. She breaks down what “prospective cohort studies” really mean and how to interpret findings without overgeneralizing results.
The discussion then expands to PFAS, often called “forever chemicals”, which are widely used in consumer products and persist in the environment and human body. Dr. Gardener explains where these chemicals are found, what health effects have been observed in the research, and practical, evidence-based strategies individuals can use to reduce exposure.
This episode offers a thoughtful, research-driven look at how environmental factors, diet choices, and chemical exposures intersect with long-term brain and cardiovascular health—and what can realistically be done today to reduce risk.

Derrell Thomas joins Dr. Erich Schramm to talk about his experience as a clinical trial participant. The two discuss Derrell's history growing up in a military family, his faith, sport, music background, and the need to keep a healthy weight to support his lifestyle. Dr. Schramm asks about how Derrell, who joined a weight loss study, is liking the process. Derrell talks at length about his experience, the benefits of weekly contact with medical professionals, and how much he is learning about his own medical situation with included imaging and testing. They also discuss the concept of blinding, where neither the doctor nor patient know if the patient has received an investigational medication or a placebo, and that even patients receiving a placebo tend to have good medical outcomes due to the clinical trial process alone.

Dr. Michael Koren and Rich Jones, in front of a live audience, present a rundown of cholesterol, what it is, and what the numbers you get on a lab test mean. They discuss why cholesterol matters, what labs measure, what affects your numbers, and why the same lab results can mean different treatments for different people. To exemplify this, Dr. Koren reviews the lab results of three real patients, with their permission, and explains why each patient is unique. He explains that a high LDL is not as important for someone with high HDL and low risk factors, but that a slightly lower LDL with a history of possible heart attack needs to be aggressively lowered. Finally, he evaluates a patient with relatively good numbers but several risk factors who may benefit from lifestyle adjustments before medical intervention.

Dr. Robert Pearl joins Dr. Erich Schramm to discuss the burgeoning role AI will play in the American healthcare system and how doctors may be able to leverage the systems to spend more time with patients who need interventions and achieve better patient outcomes for all. They spend time comparing AI outcomes not to an ideal but to the current system, and discuss pilot programs that have shown better triage, intervention, and (surprisingly) patient empathy scores with AI-integrated systems. They also briefly mention some of the dangers of generative AI and the need to tackle this issue early with incoming medical students.
Dr. Pearl's book, ChatGPT, MD: How AI-Empowered Patients & Doctors Can Take Back Control of American Medicine is available from his site, robertpearlmd.com

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to contrast the fragmented NBC coverage of the Winter Olympics to the more comprehensive level of attention and care granted by clinical research staff. The doctor expresses woe at the lack of a national "moment" that should have been granted by back-to-back men's and women's hockey victories, caused by weak broadcast coverage. Dr. Koren gives a preview of current and upcoming clinical research studies in the pipeline and explains that research staff dive deep into each participant's individual circumstances, medical history, and needs to make sure the science and the participant receive the attention needed for a good trial and a good participant experience.

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to talk about what the Super Bowl can teach us about medicine. The doctor discusses on how players get two weeks off to prepare (and heal) for the Super Bowl. He then relates this to a growing trend in investigational medicine where pharmaceutical companies are searching for longer-term medications for blood pressure and other conditions that only need to be taken once a month or less. The hope is that this "time off" from taking medicines will allow for better outcomes. Dr. Koren describes a specific investigational study looking at a potential monthly blood pressure medication and explains that the relaxed schedule may take the pressure off patients who take these medications.

Dr. H. Jackson Downey sits down with MedEvidence!™ to give the low-down on keeping your lipoprotein(a) numbers down. Lipoprotein little a, also called Lp(a), is a really, really, really, really, really bad cholesterol that is genetically determined, meaning exercise and diet don't help lower the numbers. Instead, Dr. Downey explains, clinical trials are looking into investigational medications for this bad type of cholesterol. Dr. Downey describes the ins and outs of Lp(a) and how clinical research is our best bet for solutions to this dangerous cholesterol.

There's not a lot that we both need to do and get paid to do. Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to discuss one of the most beneficial parts of clinical research: getting paid to do what you should be doing anyway. As an example, the doctor talks about Lp(a), a really, really, really, really bad cholesterol that increases the chances of having a heart attack and stroke. Dr. Koren explains that most people haven't had an Lp(a) test done because traditional cholesterol medications don't lower this really bad form of LDL, but that people canget an Lp(a) test done at a research center, get paid for their time and travel, and may even be referred to an Lp(a) lowering study if their numbers are high.

Dr. Emanuel explains how frustrated he is at trendy, influencer-style health advice and how it accentuates intense, short-term "miracle fixes," which are almost always for sale and rarely have medical benefits. He explains his philosophy, and the philosophy of Benjamin Franklin: that, in order to make substantive change, you have to focus on one thing at a time, developing it into a habit. Dr. Emanuel also explains the title of his book, that one of the largest and most important factors in health is social well-being.

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to review some possibly outdated information on modern statin bottles. Kevin reveals that he dutifully takes his statin at night and avoids grapefruit, but cardiologist Michael Koren, MD, gives updated advice. The doctor states that rosuvastatin, a newer statin, is long-acting, and that taking it at night may not be as necessary as in earlier statin types. The doctor then states that rosuvastatin was also developed to avoid the interactions between statins and grapefruit, and that small amounts of grapefruit may be ok for Kevin to consume.

Cardiologist Dr. Michael Koren is joined by a 35-year-old patient "Tucker" to walk through his cardiovascular numbers and explain what it all means. The doctor explores a lipid profile and an advanced lipid profile from top to bottom, explaining everything from how LDL is calculated to what hs-CRP measures. Along the way, they discuss how diet, exercise, supplements, and medications can affect these numbers, how the numbers relate to your risk of a cardiovascular event (like a heart attack or stroke) and what, if any, interventions should be taken. This real-world-example shows how complex the world of cardiology and lipids is and gives helpful, actionable information based on the numbers you might see.
This podcast is not medical advice, and all personal situations should be discussed with your physician.

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to discuss some of the pitfalls of traditional healthcare in America and how clinical research can bridge those gaps. The doctor and clinical researcher talks about a family member recieving care in a world-class medical facility, and that even in this setting there is confusion about who is coordinating the patient's care. He contrasts this experience with clinical research, where there are fewer patients and protocol-specified individuals who are required to keep the patient front-of-mind and take charge of medical care.

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to discuss the positive headline results from a clinical study on the cholesterol medication Repatha. Dr. Koren explains what "headline results" are and how they differ from results presented in a full scientific format. He talks about how these findings are being released due to market regulations to keep the parent company of Repatha, Amgen, from violating financial laws. Dr. Koren also explains that these results are encouraging for people with high cholesterol. The study was using Repatha as a potential preventative medication and preliminary results are looking good!

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to discuss the pivotal role imaging has played in diagnosis and understanding of various diseases. Dr. Koren notes that before the science of imaging, the only way to see what was going on inside the body was with a knife. They then discuss some of the newest applications of imaging and how the use of CT scans and amyloid PET scans can see inside the heart and arteries to see how a disease is progressing or the effectiveness of new medications.
They talk about the progress that has been made and how we are able to see what's happening, but note that access to these imaging technologies is not evenly available and that sometimes cost or insurance can get in the way of healthcare access. Dr. Koren then points out that clinical research may offer some patients a way for some patients to access these imaging technologies outside of the traditional healthcare system if they have risks or signs of diseases being studied.

The FDA has granted full approval to Novavax's COVID-19 vaccine, providing an alternative to mRNA vaccines that works through a different mechanism using proteins and adjuvants. Despite being four years into the pandemic, COVID-19 remains a significant health concern, causing approximately 1 in 200 deaths in the US in 2025.
• Novavax uses bioengineered spike proteins combined with an adjuvant rather than mRNA technology
• FDA approved Novavax for all Americans over 65 and those 12-64 with at least one risk factor
• Risk factors include conditions like asthma, diabetes, and obesity
• Northeast Florida contributed 500 patients to the original Novavax clinical trials
• Encore Research Group is currently enrolling participants for an oral COVID vaccine clinical trial
• Participants in the oral vaccine trial will receive compensation for their time
For more information about participating in the oral COVID vaccine study, visit EncoreDocs.com or call 904-730-0101.

Dr. Michael Koren sits down with Dr. Murali Ramaswamy to explore the concept of Research as a Care Option. They compare this with the misconception of research as a treatment option to reveal how clinical trials provide structured environments that often lead to better health outcomes regardless of the specific intervention. They debunk the idea that clinical trials provide treatment, due to the randomized nature of trials, but discuss the numerous health benefits seen by patients who enter a clinical trial - even those who get a placebo!

On this Monday Morning Minute, Dr. Michael Koren draws parallels between the NCAA Final Four basketball tournament and the clinical research process. He explains that in medicine, researchers start with literally 10,000 potential molecules, which get whittled down to only three or four medications to be tested in big, phase III clinical trials. This ensures that only the most promising medical technologies get approved, just like the most promising teams get to the National Championships.

On this week's Monday Morning Minute, Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to answer the question "can I participate in clinical trials even if I'm not sick?" They discuss how having "healthy participants" is critical for some clinical trials. They look at a current study that examines how the body processes oral statin medications and if those with kidney disease process medicine in a different way than those with healthy livers.
Koren's Key Takeaways:
- People without disease can be essential to the clinical trial process
- Statins are still effective, even if pharmaceutical marketing has slowed
- Joining a clinical trial as a low-risk "health participant" is a great way to learn about the process

On this week’s MedEvidence Monday Minute, Dr. Michael Koren and Kevin Geddings discuss the superbowl and how the predictions around the outcome - based on past experiences - were no substitute for knowing how the actual game would turn out. They relate this to clinical trials, where a hypothesis can sound sensible and have logical underpinnings, but a randomized, controlled clinical trial is needed to test that hypothesis and see if the outcome matches our predictions.
