Long-Chain Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorders: Advances in Nutritional Management
Target Audience
This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of Registered Dietitians.
Program Overview
Long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (LC-FAODs) are characterized by acute crises of energy production and chronic energy deficiency during times of physiologic stress and fasting. Clinical complications include recurrent episodes of rhabdomyolysis, weakness, hepatic dysfunction, severe hypoglycemia, hyperammonemia, and cardiomyopathy. Despite a traditional diet therapy,... |

Tackling Chronic Inflammatory Airway Diseases A Unified Picture of Disease Processes and Targeted Management
Chronic inflammatory diseases of the upper and lower airways, including allergic rhinitis, CRSwNP, and asthma, have been tied to significant risks and burdens for affected patients. Although biologic therapies that target overactive cytokine signaling are available, newer therapies are emerging, with targets upstream in the pathogenic cascade to improve efficacy across both T2-high and T2-low profiles. Join us for this engaging Expert Roundtable™ activity to hear multidisciplinary insights r... |

Beyond Avoidance: IgE-Mediated Food Allergies " Therapeutic Innovations to the Rescue
In the United States, food-induced allergic reactions are the leading cause of anaphylaxis in hospital emergency departments. Among these, immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated food allergies are the most common, and they pose significant risks, including cardiac arrest and respiratory failure. Traditionally, treatment options for IgE-mediated food allergies have been primarily limited to food avoidance and anaphylaxis prevention. However, recent years have brought the FDA approval of the first oral... |

ASCVD Clinical Research Updates Targeting Residual Inflammation in Patients with ASCVD and CKD
Emerging evidence and scientific advancements are revealing pathophysiologic mechanisms correlated with systemic inflammation and the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk for developing ASCVD. Novel anti-inflammatory therapies are showing efficacy at reducing inflammation and development of ASCVD, and are adding to the treatment options beyond the usual lipid-lowering agents. As new clinical evidence and tar... |
