About 40 percent of patients with metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer have an activating mutation in the PIK3CA gene,1,2 which plays a key role not only in tumor growth, but also in driving resistance to endocrine therapy.3-5 And while there are several FDA-approved PI3K pathway-targeted agents for patients with PIK3CA tumor mutations,6-8 the...
In a 2025 study investigating salivary metabolites as potential biomarkers in cystic fibrosis, researchers identified distinct metabolic patterns linked with key complications as well as correlations with lung function. In this AudioAbstract, Ryan Quigley discusses how a simple saliva sample could provide clinicians with an accessible, non-invasive tool to stratify patients, monitor therapies, a...
Early genetic evaluation plays a vital role in identifying potential causes of neurodevelopmental disorders and guiding families on next steps, expectations, and recurrence risks. Dr. Jennifer Kalish joins us to share practical insights for recognizing when to initiate testing, selecting the right tests, and addressing barriers such as insurance and interpretation. Dr. Kali...

Recognizing how inequities can significantly impact pediatric care outcomes is essential to improving access, trust, and long-term health. Dr. Shelina Ramnarine is joined by Dr. Yolanda Evans to discuss actionable strategies that can help us deliver more inclusive care, from social determinant screeners to equity-focused frameworks. Dr. Evans i...
Neonatal food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (N-FPIES) is an underrecognized condition often misdiagnosed as necrotizing enterocolitis, despite distinct clinical and lab features that demand a different treatment approach. In this AudioAbstract, ReachMD's Ryan Quigley explores the early signs, immune pathways, and diagnostic markers of N-FPIES, offering essential insights to help pe...
Pediatricians are often the first to encounter eye conditions that can range from common to life-threatening. Hear from Dr. Laura Enyedi as she shares highlights from her presentation on diagnosing childhood ocular disorders from the 2025 American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) National Conference and Exhibition.

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) presents with a wide range of clinical signs, making timely detection and coordinated care essential. This multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and management can manifest in a number of ways, from clinical evaluation and laboratory testing to emerging biomarkers and evolving treat...
Guest: Abdallah Geara, MD
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) has a decades-long progression that requires careful monitoring of key biomarkers to optimize management. Hematuria, proteinuria, and estimated glomerular filtration rate levels are all critical to tracking the progression of the disease, and understanding how they’re connected can not only improve prognostication but also guide ea...
Guest: Jonathan Barratt, PhD
Delayed diagnosis and limited treatment options have historically been barriers to optimal management of IgA nephropathy (IgAN), but that paradigm may be shifting. A paper published in Kidney International in April 2025 points out that significant nephron loss often occurs before diagnosis, making early, targeted treatment essential. The...
Every moment counts when meningitis is suspected. To help reduce the risk of poor neurologic outcomes, Dr. Jessica Snowden is here to review age-based considerations that guide empiric antibiotic and antiviral choices—from neonatal infections acquired at delivery to risks in unvaccinated older children. Dr. Snowden is a Professor of Pediatrics and Vice Chancellor for Res...
Despite the success of meningitis vaccination programs, pediatricians must remain vigilant as cases still occur and can be life-threatening if missed. That’s why Dr. Jessica Snowden joins us to share how we can identify subtle behavioral cues, understand age-specific presentations, and diagnose patients using the gold-standard approach of lumbar puncture and CSF analysis...

Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
