Host: Warner K. Huh, MD Guest: Kimberly Levinson, MD, MPH More effective triage tests are essential to improving cervical cancer risk-stratification and thus reducing the potential for unnecessary colposcopies. Enduring consensus cervical cancer screening recommendations, published in 2024, describe specific-use algorithms for p16/Ki-67 dual-staining cytology as an effective triage test, and also offer insight on how this test can best fit into clinical practice. Join Drs. Warner Huh and Kimberly Levinson as they first establish the rationale for using p16/Ki-67 dual-staining cytology and then break down the most salient algorithms for its use as offered in the recent recommendations.

Host: Jessica Ailani, MD Guest: Dawn C. Buse, PhD Half of the women in the US with migraine are never diagnosed. Of those who are, the journey to effective treatment may last a decade or longer. But newer and more effective targeted treatments are beginning to make a difference. Join Drs. Jessica Ailani and Dawn Buse as they discuss a novel approach to managing migraine and interview a patient whose migraine journey is unfortunately one traversed by many women.

Host: Jessica Ailani, MD Guest: Dawn C. Buse, PhD Upwards of 47 million people in the U.S. suffer from migraines, often accompanied by widespread personal, professional, and social disabilities. Though a similar prevalence is initially observed between men and women, by mid-adulthood the prevalence of migraine is 3-fold greater in women than men. Newer agents, both injectable and oral and focused on modulating the calcitonin gene-related peptide pathway, have emerged and have proven highly effective in managing both acute and chronic migraine. Join Drs. Jessica Ailani and Dawn Buse as they provide an overview of the changing landscape of migraine therapy, especially as it impacts women across different life-stages.

Host: Lee Shulman MD, FACOG, FACMG Guest: Kristina Deligiannidis, MD The recent development and approval of two neuroactive steroids is likely to change the treatment paradigm for moderate to severe postpartum depression (PPD). These agents have a quick onset and function as GABAA positive allosteric modulators. Join Drs. Shulman and Deligiannidis as they address the burdens and impacts of PPD on mothers, babies, and partners, and deep dive into the pathophysiologic role and clinical findings associated with the use of neuroactive steroids in the management of PPD.

Guest: Candace T. Westgate, DO, MPH, FACOG Guest: Ethan D. Schram, MD, FACP Early detection of cancer is essential to reducing the significant burdens associated with it. When cancer is detected at earlier stages, treatments can be initiated sooner, resulting in improved outcomes, reduced morbidity and mortality, and better quality of life. While the implementation of current screening guidelines has resulted in an overall reduction in cancer deaths, only 25 percent of cancers are diagnosed using traditional screening modalities, leaving much room for improvement. Blood-based multi-cancer early detection, or MCED, tests that can screen from four to greater than 50 types of cancers have been developed to complement the population-based screening of asymptomatic individuals. At the spring 2023 American Association for Cancer Research, also known as AACR, American Society of Clinical Oncology, or ASCO, and National Comprehensive Cancer Network, orNCCN, annual conferences, a multitude of data was presented on MCEDs, including real-world data, clinical trial data, novel MCEDs in development, MCED accuracy, and the inherent health equity challenges that their implementation will face. This educational activity has two parts. Dr. Candace Westgate delivers an MCED Primer designed to build primary care clinicians’ knowledge about the science of MCEDs and how to implement their use in primary care practice, followed by chapterized discussions between …

Program Chairman: Roberto Romero, MD, DMedSci Chief, Perinatology Research Branch Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine and Obstetrics Division of Intramural Research NICHD/NIH/DHHS Editor-in-Chief for Obstetrics The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology As the platelet equivalent of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn, fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is an uncommon yet complex and life-threatening bleeding disorder that results from incompatibility between mother and baby for platelet-specific antigens. Despite relatively normal platelet function, in the setting of severe thrombocytopenia, intracranial hemorrhage is a consequence. Drs. Shulman and Bussel discuss advances in management strategies and concrete steps you can take to lower the risk and stop the progression of this disorder in your patients.

Program Chairman: Roberto Romero, MD, DMedSci Chief, Perinatology Research Branch Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine and Obstetrics Division of Intramural Research NICHD/NIH/DHHS Editor-in-Chief for Obstetrics The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology How well do you understand the biology of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN)? What about its connection to the FcRn receptor pathway and IgG? Drs. Lee Shulman and Ken Moise go beyond the basics taught in medical school immunology and look more closely at FcRn’s role in protecting IgG. With an improved understanding of these mechanisms, we can expand therapeutic targets beyond the fetus and newborn and finally put the needles away.

Despite having considerable clinical consequences, this area of medicine is not fully understood by many clinicians. Drs. Shulman and Moise provide expert insight on red blood cell alloimmunization, highlighting essential pathophysiology and current and evolving management strategies. Join us to learn new ways to approach this complicated and rare clinical condition.
