Host: Peter Buch, MD, FACG, AGAF, FACP Guest: Michael Camilleri, MD GLP-1 receptor agonists are revolutionizing treatment for diabetes and obesity, but their impact on the gastrointestinal tract demands careful clinical attention. Dr. Peter Buch is joined by Dr. Michael Camilleri, Professor of Medicine at the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research in Rochester, Minnesota, to discuss key findings on gastrointestinal side effects, procedural risks, and the impacts of GLP-1 receptor agonists on the fields of gastroenterology and hepatology.

Host: Mary Katherine Cheeley, PharmD, BCPS, CLS, FNLA Guest: Faiyaz Syed MD, MPH The Michigan Primary Care Association (MPCA) recently partnered with the AMA to implement the AMA MAP™ Hypertension Quality Improvement Program at two pilot health centers. After this collaboration resulted in a 6 percent improvement in hypertension control, it’s now expanding to all other MPCA health centers and could even focus on other conditions like diabetes. Joining Dr. Mary Katherine Cheeley to share his experience with the AMA MAP™ program is Dr. Faiyaz Syed, Chief Medical Officer for the MPCA.

Host: Riccardo Maria Inciardi, MD, PhD Listen to Dr. Riccardo Inciardi’s summary from the ESC Preventive Cardiology 2025 meeting, where he highlights new therapies reshaping the management of cardio-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome and heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFmrEF/HFpEF). Watch as he breaks down the latest clinical trial data showing that SGLT2 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, and the nonsteroidal MRA finerenone can meaningfully reduce hospitalizations, kidney disease progression, and cardiovascular mortality. A real-life patient case illustrates how combining these therapies—under the care of a multidisciplinary team—can transform outcomes.
