  Episode #25

  Neurology 4: Under Pressure

  Jul 28, 202613 minS1

  In this episode, we break down a complex neuro-localization case involving cranial nerve deficits, spinal cord tract findings, and positional headaches related to intracranial pressure. Through four board-style questions, we integrate neuroanatomy, vascular supply, physiology, and spinal cord lesion patterns to sharpen high-yield clinical reasoning skills. Topics covered include: • Nucleus ambiguus lesions and gag reflex deficits • Brown-Séquard syndrome and spinal cord hemisection • Intracranial pressure changes with body position • Anterior spinal artery syndrome and tract localization • High-yield neuro-localization concepts for board exams Designed for quick, high-yield review during commutes, workouts, or study breaks.

  Reproductive 3: Pearls Before Ovaries

  Jul 21, 202610 minS1

  In this episode, we break down a classic presentation of polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome in a young woman with irregular cycles, infertility, hirsutism, and insulin resistance. Through four board-style questions, we integrate endocrinology, reproductive physiology, pathology, and metabolism to understand the hormonal imbalances driving PMOS. Topics covered include: • “String of pearls” ovarian morphology in PMOS • Theca interna cells and androgen excess • Insulin resistance and decreased SHBG • LH:FSH imbalance and anovulation • High-yield reproductive endocrinology concepts for board exams Designed for quick, high-yield review during commutes, workouts, or study breaks.

  Neurology 3: Tangled Up in Tau

  Jul 14, 202612 minS1

  In this episode, we work through a classic case of progressive memory loss and cognitive decline in an older adult. Using four board-style questions, we connect neuroanatomy, pathology, physiology, and neurotransmitter function to understand the hallmark features of Alzheimer disease and how to distinguish it from other neurodegenerative disorders. Topics covered include: • Hippocampal degeneration and early memory loss • Amyloid-β plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles • Cholinergic deficits and the nucleus basalis of Meynert • Differentiating Alzheimer disease from Parkinson, Huntington, and prion diseases • High-yield neurodegenerative disease concepts for board exams Designed for quick, high-yield review during commutes, workouts, or study breaks.

  Reproductive 2: Cramping My Style

  Jul 7, 202610 minS1

  In this episode, we work through a classic case of heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pressure, and infertility caused by uterine fibroids. Using four board-style questions, we connect pathology, anatomy, physiology, and reproductive complications to understand the hormonal and structural mechanisms underlying leiomyomas. Topics covered include: • Leiomyoma pathology and smooth muscle proliferation • Cardinal ligament anatomy and uterine blood supply • Estrogen-driven fibroid growth • Infertility from distortion of the uterine cavity • High-yield reproductive pathology concepts for board exams Designed for quick, high-yield review during commutes, workouts, or study breaks.

  Musculoskeletal 3: Knee-d to Know

  Jun 30, 202611 minS1

  In this episode, we break down a classic non-contact ACL injury in a teenage athlete presenting with knee instability, immediate swelling, and a positive anterior translation exam. Through four board-style questions, we integrate anatomy, biomechanics, physiology, and connective tissue biology to understand the mechanisms underlying this common sports injury. Topics covered include: • ACL anatomy and anterior tibial translation • Hemarthrosis and acute knee effusions • Ligament proprioception and mechanoreceptors • Type I collagen and ligament structure • High-yield knee injury concepts for board exams Designed for quick, high-yield review during commutes, workouts, or study breaks.
