Dan and Janet are thrilled to welcome UBC's Dr. Fergus To to Around the Rheum for a fascinating conversation about Myositis.
In this discussion, they delve into the general categories of Myositis that rheumatologists need to know about, important clinical features that help differentiate the subtype before you get the panel back, a broad approach to understanding serologies, establishing a firm diagnosis, most common mimics and how to differentiate them from Inflammatory Myositis, the decision making process when selecting first and second line treatments, when to use IVIG for both induction and maintenance, advances in the treatment of RPILD, as well as prognosis and cancer screening and what's in the pipeline.
Dr To is a Clinical Assistant Professor at UBC and serves as a consultant rheumatologist at Vancouver General Hospital and Saint Paul's Hospital. He started the Vancouver Coastal Health Myositis Clinic for which he was awarded the BC Society of Rheumatology Award for Innovation. His research interests are in QI and novel therapies for myositis.

Host Dan Ennis has to admit that AI has had him a bit concerned. So he joined up with co-host Janet Pope to talk to a couple of Rheumatologists who have done a lot of thinking about where AI is taking us, to see if they could soothe his fears. Together, the University of Alberta's Dr. Carrie Ye and UBC's Dr. Carson Chin, take a look at the practical applications of AI right now, and what the future may hold for it. It is a fun and fascinating conversation and by the end Dan said he was feeling more hopeful about "how we can use [AI] and make it make us better doctors."
Dr. Carson Chin is a Clinical Instructor in the Division of Rheumatology at UBC and is a consultant Rheumatologist at Burnaby Hospital. He is the current Vice President of the BC Society of Rheumatologists. He has a special interest in AI.

This month, we're thrilled to have Dr. David Fajgenbaum on our podcast. He is a clinician scientist, rare disease patient, author, and all-around incredible human being. On this episode, he tells the riveting true story of his battle with Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman’s Disease (IMCD), including his brush with death (a priest gave him last rites), and his subsequent journey to discovering his own cure. David later wrote a book about his journey called ‘Chasing My Cure: A Doctor’s Race to Turn Hope Into Action” and co-founded ‘Every Cure,’ a nonprofit organization aimed at unlocking the full potential of every approved medicine to treat every disease possible. He has been interviewed by the New York Times, CNN, The Today Show, The BBC… and now Around the Rheum!
Dr. Fajgenbaum is also an Assistant Professor of Medicine in translational medicine and human genetics at the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman Medical School.

"The patient in this case is a 73-year-old woman. [She] was previously healthy and not on any medications... She developed exertional shortness of breath for a few months, which prompted her to visit [the] emergency room. It was discovered that she had bilateral pleural effusion."
And so begins our latest episode of our popular new segment, Clinical Pearls and Medical Mysteries, in which two UBC Rheum Fellows try to stump Dan and Janet with this case, laying out increasingly complex details piece by piece. No spoilers, but we will say that Dan describes Janet's approach to the case in this episode as "Lebron James-like."
Our guests are Dr. Angela Hu, who is finishing her final year of Rheumatology Fellowship at UBC. She is from Vancouver and completed medical school at McMaster University and internal medicine training in Toronto. She has an interest in lupus and will be pursuing an additional fellowship in this. Dr. Danya Al Nujaidi is also in her final year of her Rheumatology Fellowship at UBC. She completed medical school and Internal Medicine Board at IAU in Saudi Arabia.

On this episode of Around the Rheum, we're thrilled to have Dr. Elie Karam as our guest talking about his journey with Axial Spondyloarthritis, a form of arthritis that causes inflammation and pain of the spine as well as other parts of the body, including the peripheral joints, entheses, gut and eyes.
Dr. Karam is Chair of the Canadian Spondylitis Association (CSA): a patient-led, not-for-profit organization focused on advocacy for Canadians living with this disease. www.spondylitis.ca
He is a self-described Ankylosing Spondylitis warrior, advocating as both a physician and a patient with the condition. In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Karam describes his own journey with spondylitis, the challenge in getting a diagnosis, and finally his experience with treatment. He and Dan talk about the difficulties in dealing with this "invisible disease," how patients can better advocate for themselves, and what more can be done by doctors and the healthcare system to help patients.
Dr. Karam is currently completing his family medicine residency at the University of Ottawa, after having switched out of orthopedic surgery after his diagnosis. Please join us for his inspiring tale!

We're thrilled to be joined by Dr. Dissanayake for this episode on Autoinflammatory Disorders. And we're also happy to have Janet Pope back in the host chair again with Daniel Ennis.
Together, Dilan, Daniel, and Janet have a fascinating conversation, taking on basic questions like what defines an autoinflammatory disease and how is it distinct from an Autoimmune disease? What is the interplay between autoinflammatory and autoimmune disease? How can we group or arrange the different autoinflammatory diseases to make them a more approachable topic? How to take a proper autoinflammatory disease history? How to confirm a suspected autoinflammatory disease and rule out common mimics? Finally, treatment principles and possible long-term consequences.
Dr. Dilan Dissanayake is a staff rheumatologist at The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. He is an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto and a Transition Clinician-Scientist at SickKids Research Institute. Dr. Dissanayake’s current research interests include using high-dimensional methods to better characterize the immune cells that cause rheumatologic diseases and investigations into the functional consequences of genetic changes that lead to inflammatory diseases.

In this episode, we continue our series of conversations on an important topic, Indigenous Health in Canada. Today, we will focus on the care of patients with rheumatic disease who live in remote communities. We will be visiting with Cynthia Munger, Community Health Representative at the Stellat'en First Nation in northern British Columbia, for a discussion on what remote communities are looking for in their relationship with visiting doctors, how to win the trust of First Nation communities to best serve patients there, and what the experience is like for visiting doctors who commit to this kind of work.
For this conversation, our host Daniel Ennis is joined by his friend and colleague Dr. Brent Ohata, a rheumatologist at UBC. Brent is passionate about Indigenous Health and health equity and has been working as a visiting rheumatologist in Stellat'en First Nation for the past ~8 years. In 2017, Brent won the Innovation Award in the UBC Division of Rheumatology for championing telehealth as a means of improving access to rheumatologic care in rural BC.

Dr. Hugues Allard-Chamard from the University of Sherbrooke joins Dan to take a fascinating deep dive into the world of IgG4-related disease. Together they tackle the basics, like what IgG4-related disease is, the clinical spectrum of the disease, the phenotypes that we should look for clinically, an approach to diagnosis, the best tissue to biopsy, and what to look for on pathology. They discuss common mimics of the disease, how to treat it, a look at the recently published open label study on use of Abatacept (of which Hugues was an author), how and when to use Prednisone, and what's in the pipeline for IgG4-related disease.
Dr. Hugues Allard-Chamard is a Rheumatologist and Assistant Professor at the University of Sherbrooke where his research focuses on immunology and IgG4-related disease.

"The Patient is a 19-year-old woman of Filipino descent but born in Canada, previously healthy apart from a history of eczema, for which she is not taking any treatment. She had traveled to France on a gap year and while she was there she developed a skin rash that was worse on sun exposure. She also noticed increased hair loss, shortness of breath, dry cough, and arthralgias."

Step-by-step, Sarah lays out what proves to be an increasingly difficult case to our in-house Holmes and Watson. Will Janet and Dan crack it? You'll have to listen to find out, but we can guarantee you an episode 'chock-full' of clinical pearls.
