Overview: The renaming of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) to polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS) reflects the true complexity of this diagnosis—a condition that extends beyond ovarian cysts and reproductive health. Listen in as we explore what drove the name change, how it better reflects the condition’s complexity, and what current evidence says about prevalence, risk, and whole-body management strategies for your patients.

Overview: Once declared eliminated in the United States, measles is again making headlines as cases and outbreaks rise. In this Quick Take, Dr. Peter Lin breaks down why measles spreads so efficiently, how infection affects the immune system, and the clinical clues that can help primary care clinicians recognize infection before the characteristic rash appears. He also reviews important complications, the role of vaccination in prevention, and practical strategies PCPs can use to assess risk, counsel patients, and support timely prevention and recognition.

Learning Objectives:

1. Explain the transmission characteristics of measles, including airborne persistence, that account for its exceptionally high infectivity
2. Recognize Koplik spots as an early clinical sign of measles that may facilitate earlier identification and isolation of suspected cases
3. Determine which adults should receive MMR vaccination based on age, evidence of immunity, and exposure risk, including healthcare personnel and international travelers
4. Discuss practical communication strategies to discuss measles prevention and vaccination with patients
