What I Saw at the Pandemic

Philip Seo, MD, MHS  |  December 14, 2020

I never wake up late. This wasn’t always the case. All the way through residency, I was completely dependent on alarm clocks to keep from oversleeping. So much so that when my alarm clock broke halfway through my internship, I replaced it the next day. I remember driving in the middle of the night to…

The End of the Beginning: COVID-19 Vaccines & Other Conundrums

Philip Seo, MD, MHS  |  December 9, 2020

“It’s like winning Powerball.” For months, there has been a steady trickle of questions from my patients, asking for my opinion about the new vaccines being developed to prevent COVID-19.

Duke Researchers Create a Type 1, Type 2 Lupus Disease Model

Catherine Kolonko  |  October 20, 2020

A new disease model for lupus tackles issues with fatigue and other serious conditions that, although quite common among patients, get less attention because they fall outside classic symptoms associated with inflammation, a debilitating force behind systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The model features subtypes to cate­gorize two main groups of symptoms into type 1, typically…

Hand Pain Depends on More Than Osteoarthritis Severity & Psych Profile

Thomas R. Collins  |  October 19, 2020

Pain is the main reason patients with osteoarthritis (OA) seek medical help because of the substantial burden it imposes and its impact on quality of life.
