SUMMARY:McAllister Heart Institute Seminar Series: Dr. Nikolaos Frangogiannis\, "The functional pluralism of fibroblasts in the remodeling myocardium"
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Nikolaos Frangogiannis\, MD:  Edmond J Safra/Republic National Bank of New York Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine; Professor\, Department of Medicine\, Albert Einstein College of Medicine.Topic: The functional pluralism of fibroblasts in the remodeling myocardium \nAdditional information from Dr. Frangogiannis: Cardiac fibroblast populations expand following injury and mediate repair\, while contributing to adverse remodeling and ventricular dysfunction. A growing body of evidence suggests that in addition to their matrix-secreting properties\, cardiac fibroblasts have a wide range of functions in cardioprotection\, regulation of inflammation and tissue repair. This presentation will discuss emerging concepts on the role of fibroblasts in cardiac repair\, remodeling and fibrosis.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds Craige Lecture\, Valentin Fuster "Importance of Primordial Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases"
DESCRIPTION:Whereas primary prevention seeks to forestall development of disease in individuals with elevated risk\, primordial prevention seeks to preempt the development of risk factors. Health behaviors–characterized as “lifestyle” factors–are key interventional targets in primordial prevention of cardiovascular disease. Although lifestyle modification programs can be instrumental in reaching public health goals\, maintaining cardiovascular health should not be a matter solely of willpower. Ideally\, structural and social forces should make healthy lifestyles the default option. \nDr. Valentin Fuster serves The Mount Sinai Medical Hospital as Physician-in-Chief\, as well as Director of Mount Sinai Heart\, the Zena and Michael A. Wiener Cardiovascular Institute and the Marie-Josée and Henry R. Kravis Center for Cardiovascular Health. He is also the Richard Gorlin\, MD/Heart Research Foundation Professor\, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr. Fuster was the President of Science and is now the General Director of the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III in Madrid\, Spain and also and Chairman of the Science for Health and Education Foundation. \nAmong his many achievements\, it is noteworthy that Dr. Fuster is the only cardiologist to have received the highest awards for research from the four leading cardiovascular organizations: the American Heart Association\, the American College of Cardiology\, the European Society of Cardiology and the Interamerican Society of Cardiology.

SUMMARY:McAllister Heart Institute Seminar Series: Christopher Kontos\, MD\, New Insights into Skeletal Muscle-Endothelial Cell Interactions in Peripheral Artery Disease
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Christopher Kontos\, MD. Associate Professor of Medicine\, Duke UniversityTopic: “New Insights into Skeletal Muscle-Endothelial Cell Interactions in Peripheral Artery Disease” \nPresentation Preview: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is caused by atherosclerotic obstruction of the peripheral arteries\, most commonly the legs. The clinical manifestations of PAD include intermittent claudication\, characterized by pain with exertion that is relieved by rest\, and critical limb ischemia (CLI)\, in which patients experience rest pain with or without tissue necrosis and gangrene. Traditionally\, these different clinical presentations were thought to be due to differences in the severity of atherosclerotic vascular disease and subsequent differences in limb blood flow. However\, individuals with the same degree of vascular disease can present with vastly different phenotypes\, suggesting that genetics contribute to the different manifestations of PAD. Recent insights from our group have demonstrated that the response of skeletal muscle cells to ischemia\, independent of vascular growth or tissue perfusion\, plays an important role in determining outcomes after limb ischemia. In a mouse model of limb ischemia\, a polymorphism in BAG3 (Bcl2-associated athanogene-3) was found to play a key role in determining tissue survival vs. loss after limb ischemia\, and its potential mechanisms of action and role as a therapeutic target in PAD will be discussed. In addition\, several receptors expressed primarily on endothelial cells have been found play a role in modulating skeletal muscle cellular responses to injury\, and these receptors’ potential roles in the response to PAD and skeletal muscle differentiation will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Kenneth Ataga\, "Pharmacological Therapies for Sickle Cell Disease: Beyond Hydroxyurea"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Ataga is the director of the UNC Comprehensive Sickle Cell Program. His clinical research is focused on the vasculopathy of sickle cell disease\, with an emphasis on pulmonary hypertension and renal complications\, and coagulation activation in sickle cell disease. \nIn addition\, he has a strong research interest in the development of new therapies for sickle cell disease. His clinical trials in sickle cell disease are funded by the National Institutes of Health and the pharmaceutical industry. Results from an international\, multicenter phase 2 clinical trial led by Dr. Ataga were published online by the New England Journal of Medicine last year\, and were presented at the annual meeting of the American Society of Hematology in San Diego. The trial found that an investigational compound called SeIG1 dramatically reduces sickle cell pain crises. \nSickle cell disease is an inherited\, blood disorder that affects one out of every 500 African-Americans. There are approximately 80\,000 people in the United States with sickle cell disease. It is also one of the most common genetic diseases\, affecting millions of people worldwide. About half of the world’s sickle cell disease population lives in three countries: Nigeria\, India and the Democratic Republic of Congo. \nPatients with sickle cell disease suffer anemia and complications in which sickle-shaped red cells and white blood cells adhere to small vessels and block blood flow to downstream organs. This vaso-occlusive process results in intense pain and repeated hospitalizations. It also leads to progressive multi-organ dysfunction and premature death.

SUMMARY:MHI Seminar Series: Kari North\, PhD\, Genetic Diversity Turns a New PAGE in Our Understanding of Complex Traits
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Kari North\, PhDTopic: Genetic Diversity Turns a New PAGE in Our Understanding of Complex Traits \nPresentation Preview: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have laid the foundation for many downstream investigations\, including the biology of complex traits\, drug development\, and clinical guidelines. However\, the dominance of European-ancestry populations in GWAS creates a biased view of human variation and hinders the translation of genetic associations into clinical and public health applications. To demonstrate the benefit of studying underrepresented populations\, the Population Architecture using Genomics and Epidemiology (PAGE) study conducted a GWAS of 26 clinical and behavioral phenotypes in 49\,839 non-European individuals. Using novel strategies for multi-ethnic analysis of admixed populations\, we confirm 574 GWAS catalog variants across these traits\, and find 28 novel loci and 42 residual signals in known loci. Our data show strong evidence of effect-size heterogeneity across ancestries for published GWAS associations\, which substantially restricts genetically-guided precision medicine. We advocate for new\, large genome-wide efforts in diverse populations to reduce health disparities.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Jonathan Juliano and Steve Meshnick\, "Evolving Concepts in Malaria Control and Treatment"
DESCRIPTION:In 2015\, there were 212 million malaria cases worldwide\, with the majority of deaths occurring in sub-Saharan Africa. In addition to the human burden of malaria\, the economic burden is vast. It is thought to cost African countries more than $12 billion every year in direct losses. For more than a decade\, Drs. Juliano and Meshnick have worked together to develop tools to control this epidemic. \nDr. Steve Meshnick is Professor and Associate Chair of the Department of Epidemiology. He has worked on tropical infectious diseases\, especially malaria\, for over 30 years and has published more than 340 scientific papers. He has a long-standing commitment to training and capacity-building and has been the primary mentor for 40 doctoral students and for ten post-docs\, including many from developing countries. \nOne of his former trainees\, Dr. Juliano\, and he are now co-leader of the Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Ecology Lab (IDEEL@UNC).  In addition to malaria\, the group has studied African Sleeping Sickness\, tick-borne diseases\, hepatitis\, and Pneumocystis carinii. The goal is to integrate laboratory and field research to develop better tools for infectious disease prevention and control. \nJonathan Juliano\, MD\, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine’s Division of Infectious Diseases. He is the Medical Director of the UNC Hospital Antimicrobial Stewardship Program. He is also adjunct faculty in the Department of Epidemiology at the Gillings School of Global Public Health and a preceptor in UNC’s Curriculum in Genetics and Molecular Biology. Dr. Juliano also acts as the Associate Program Director of research and professional development for the UNC Infectious Disease Fellowship program.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, William Fischer and David Wohl\, "Ebola and Lassa Fever: New Concepts of Epidemiology and Therapy"
DESCRIPTION:Severe acute viral infections are one of the world’s most common causes of hospitalization and mortality with worse outcomes disproportionately affecting resource-constrained countries. In the past 15 years we have witnessed the emergence or re-emergence of several viral pathogens that threaten global public health including SARS\, pandemic H1N1 Influenza\, MERS-CoV\, and most recently Ebola.  \n\nFischer\, assistant professor in the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine\, was among the first physicians on the ground in Guinea\, West Africa\, caring for patients during that country’s Ebola outbreak. He later teamed up with David Wohl\, MD\, professor of medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases\, in Liberia. In collaboration with health care providers from Liberia and a clinical research organization called Clinical RM\, they launched the first clinical trial of a therapeutic intervention in an Ebola outbreak\, in which plasma from survivors of Ebola virus disease is given to patients who are battling the disease. \n“Our model has always been to couple direct service with clinical research\, with the idea being that if our freezers went down and we lost all of our research samples we were still providing an incredibly important service to patients” said Fischer.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, David Rubinow "Reproductive Mood Disorders: This Is Your Brain on Steroids"
DESCRIPTION:Both basic and clinical studies suggest that reproductive steroids regulate virtually every element of neural signaling and do so in a highly context dependent fashion\, with contexts including cell type\, metabolic profiles\, developmental stage/age\, sex\, environment\, past experience\, and genotype. Reproductive endocrine-related mood disorders in women (premenstrual dysphoric disorder\, perinatal depression\, and perimenopausal depression) offer an unparalleled opportunity to understand critical and distinct processes in disorders characterized by affective state dysregulation\, namely how they are triggered and what renders some individuals susceptible to the disorders. This presentation will describe how manipulations of the reproductive endocrine system can reveal the role of reproductive steroids in the regulation of affect and suggest the means by which differential sensitivity to reproductive steroids translates into the precipitation of negative affective states. \nDr. David Rubinow is the Assad Meymandi Professor and Chair of the Department of Psychiatry. Prior to joining UNC\, he was the Clinical Director of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and Chief of the Behavioral Endocrinology Branch.  His research interests focus on neurobehavioral effects of gonadal steroids and how genetic variation contributes to differential behavioral response to changes in steroid signaling. Additionally\, the UNC Women’s Mood Disorders Program\, which he directs\, has the first and only NIH training fellowship in Women’s Mood Disorders. On the basis of his research\, he was inducted into the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies in 2012. Dr. Rubinow is also the Director of the UNC Center for Innovation and Health Care System Transformation\, which promotes the development of patient-centered innovations designed to address the current challenges facing our nation’s health care delivery system.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Stacy Wood "Medicine + Marketing: The New Role of Consumer Theory in Patient-Centric Care"
DESCRIPTION:As the healthcare environment changes\, patients increasingly see more personal control in their choice of doctors\, therapies\, and systems of care.  From new models of tele-health to the ubiquitous direct-to-consumer pharmaceutical ads on TV\, patients are shifting to a “customer mind-set” when they make health decisions and this has sweeping ramifications for healthcare providers. \nIn this lecture\, internationally-recognized scholar in consumer theory and President-Elect of the Association for Consumer Research\, Dr. Stacy Wood (the Langdon Distinguished University Professor of Marketing and  Executive Director of the Consumer Innovation Collaborative\, NC State University) will give a practical introduction into how consumer theory can be used by medical practitioners to improve patient choice environments\, patient adherence\, and patient satisfaction.  Based on her research with physicians\, she will discuss common pitfalls to avoid and exciting new arenas that combine the best of medicine with the best of marketing to promote patient well-being.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Joseph Rossi and William Powers\, "PFO Closure to Reduce Stroke Risk -- How Compelling Is the Evidence?"
DESCRIPTION:Recent clinical trials have investigated the efficacy of mechanical closure of patent foramen ovale (PFO) for prevention of recurrent stroke. We will review the epidemiological evidence linking PFO and stroke\, the methodology and results of clinical trials of secondary stroke prevention in patients with PFO\, and the techniques for mechanical closure of PFO. \nWilliam J. Powers\, MD\, is an expert on cerebral blood flow and metabolism\, as well as stroke treatment and prevention. Powers has dedicated his career to improving the outcome of patients with stroke and cerebrovascular disease. His early work helped establish concepts of blood pressure auto-regulation and acute blood pressure management in stroke\, influential on the choice and timing of anti-hypertensive therapies and the consideration of acute vs. chronic blood pressure control. He later identified patterns of blood pressure control in intracerebral hemorrhage and noted that the tissue surrounding the hemorrhage is not ischemic. Powers spearheaded studies suggesting chronic hemodynamic impairment from occlusive cerebrovascular disease. He is the H. Houston Merritt Distinguished Professor and chair of the Department of Neurology. \nJoseph Rossi\, MD\, MSCI\, FACC\, FSCAI\, is director of the Cardiac Catheterization Lab and Program Director of the Interventional Cardiology Fellowship. He specializes in interventional cardiology.
