Science Daily — Television is a powerful agent of development for children, particularly those in preschool. But when could too much TV be detrimental to a young child's mind? A recent paper published in the Journal of Communication found that preschoolers who have a TV in their bedroom and are exposed to more background TV have a weaker understanding of other people's beliefs and desires. Share This: Tweet1Amy Nathanson, Molly Sharp, Fashina Aladé, Eric Rasmussen, and Katheryn Christy, all of The Ohio State University, interviewed and tested 107 children and their parents to determine the relationship between preschoolers' television exposure and their ...
Say It Isn't So. . . . In the Treatment of Typical Atrial Flutter, Less May Not Be More

Medscape I need help. Here is a common case that causes me great consternation. It is one that brings two worthy philosophies into the ring. In one corner is the ever-virtuous minimally disruptive philosophy. In the other corner is pragmatism. A 65-year-old man with a history of obesity and hypertension complains of sustained tachycardia, fatigue, and exertional dyspnea for the past week. The 12-lead ECG shows typical atrial flutter (AFl) with a ventricular rate of 120 bpm. Last year, he had intermittent self-terminating palpitations. A 30-day event monitor showed paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Moderate-dose propafenone relieved his symptoms until this recent episode of atrial flutter. ...

ScienceDaily: Nov. 21, 2013 — On Nov. 22, leading alcohol researchers from the United States and Europe will present the latest findings on how alcohol impairs the immune system. Share This: TweetThe all-day conference will be held on the Loyola University Chicago Health Sciences Campus in Maywood, Il. About 65 researchers are expected to attend. The more researchers learn about the effects of alcohol abuse, the more damaging it appears to be to the immune system. For example, alcohol abuse can cause liver inflammation, which can lead to cirrhosis of the liver and liver fibrosis (scarring). Long-term alcohol abuse also can lead to alcoholic cardiomyopathy, a condition in which the ...

Obamacare Restricts Choice of Hospitals and Doctors by Stephen Lendman Previous articles explained Obamacare deception. It's a healthcare rationing scheme. It's a scam to enrich insurers and other major providers. Last August, the Wall Street Journal headlined "Many Health Insurers to Limit Choices of Doctors, Hospitals," saying: "(O)nline health-insurance marketplace(s) will present some tough choices for consumers." Indiana University Health is the state's largest provider. Consumers are in for a rude awakening. Many will find doctors they rely on excluded from new plan options. Seeing them requires paying costs out- of-pocket. Expect much the same ...

Yahoo Finance PARIS, Nov 22 (Reuters) - An experimental drug for rheumatoid arthritis developed by French drugmaker Sanofi and Regeneron, when combined with methotrexate, improved symptoms and physical function and slowed progression of the disease in a late-stage clinical trial. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease in which thebody's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue, causing inflammation and pain in the joints. Sanofi and Regeneron's drug, called sarilumab, is an injectable antibody that works by blocking an inflammation-causing protein called interleukin 6. It is similar to Actemra, Roche's fast-growing treatment approved in 2010. The success of the ...
The Shutdown and the Rollout

Here is a quick pop quiz. Which presented more harm to human life and personal freedom: the four-week partial shutdown of the federal government last month or the rollout of Obamacare this month? Obamacare is the greatest single expansion of federal regulatory authority in American history. In one stroke, it puts 16 percent of American economic activity — virtually all of health care and health insurance — under the thumb of federal bureaucrats. It dictates the minimum insurance coverage that everyone in the United States must have. It punishes severely, without a hearing, anyone who deviates below the prescribed minimum. It forces nearly all Americans to acquire coverage in a ...

Science Daily Nov. 19, 2013 — Sudden cardiac arrest isn't always so sudden, according to research presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2013. Share This: ?In a study of middle-age men in Portland, Oregon, more than half had possible warning signs up to a month before their hearts stopped abruptly. Cardiac arrest occurs when the heart stops due to a failure in its electrical system. Patients can sometimes survive if they receive CPR immediately and a defibrillator is used quickly to shock the heart into a normal rhythm. About 360,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests are reported each year in the United States, according to the American Heart ...

ATLANTA — The antibiotic clarithromycin prescribed for patients already taking antihypertensive calcium-channel blockers is associated with increases in hospitalization for acute kidney injury, hypotension, and death, according to new research. Coprescribing the 2 drugs is a common practice, despite warnings of serious interactions. "Although the absolute risk increases were small, these outcomes have important clinical implications," said senior author Amit Garg, MD, from the London Health Sciences Centre and the University of Western Ontario. "Our results suggest that potentially hundreds of hospitalizations and deaths in our region may have been associated with this ...

New Harvard research provides the strongest evidence to date that eating nuts can reduce a person’s risk of dying from cancer, heart disease, and a number of other causes. The study, published Wednesday in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine, involved more than 118,000 healthy volunteers and found that those who regularly consumed a one-ounce daily serving of walnuts, almonds, cashews or other tree nuts had a 20 percent lower risk of dying from any cause during the three-decade long study compared to those who did not eat nuts. Nut eaters were 25 percent less likely to die from heart disease, 10 percent less likely to die from cancer, and 20 percent less likely to die ...

DALLAS, TX — The Trial to Assess Chelation Therapy (TACT), dubbed by one observer as "the most controversial CVD trial in a long time," is stepping back into the limelight today with findings from a substudy that may prove just as astounding as the primary study results. In a prespecified analysis of patients with diabetes in TACT, Dr Esteban Escolar (Mount Sinai Medical Center, Miami Beach, FL) and colleagues, with TACT principal investigator Dr Gervasio A Lamas (Mount Sinai Medical Center), found a highly significant 15% absolute decrease in risk of the primary composite end point among diabetic patients in the chelation arm compared with patients treated with placebo ...

CARMICHAEL, Calif. (AP) The doctor isn't in, but he can still see you now. Remote presence robots are allowing physicians to "beam" themselves into hospitals to diagnose patients and offer medical advice during emergencies. A growing number of hospitals are using telemedicine robots to expand access to medical specialists, especially in rural areas where there's a shortage of doctors. Dignity Health, which runs Arizona, California and Nevada hospitals, began using the telemedicine machines five years ago to quickly diagnose patients suspected of suffering strokes. The San Francisco-based health care provider now uses telemedicine machines in emergency rooms and ...

What is acrylamide? Acrylamide is a chemical that can form in some foods during high-temperature cooking processes, such as frying, roasting, and baking. Acrylamide in food forms from sugars and an amino acid that are naturally present in food; it does not come from food packaging or the environment. Is there a risk from eating foods that contain acrylamide? Acrylamide caused cancer in animals in studies where animals were exposed to acrylamide at very high doses. In 2010, the Joint Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) concluded that acrylamide is a human health concern, and suggested additional long-term studies.

The No. 1 killer of Ohio children — being born too early — is becoming more preventable every day. Ohio doctors hope to get a synthetic form of a hormone called progesterone into the hands of women most likely to deliver before 37 weeks. That’s key because infants born early are more likely to have breathing, feeding and vision problems or develop serious conditions such as developmental delays and cerebral palsy. Just more than 12 percent of Ohio children will begin their lives too early; hundreds will die from complications shortly after. In 2011, 505 infants died from being born too early, accounting for one-third of all deaths among children younger than 18. ...

Obama's Healthcare Fix by Stephen Lendman He's got himself to blame. He sold a pig in a polk. He backed one of America's greatest ever scams. It hugely enriches providers. It does so at the expense of giving everyone universal single payer coverage. More on that below. Obamacare is rife with problems. It leaves millions uninsured. It leaves millions more underinsured. It makes healthcare coverage more expensive. Mandated market rules include rude awakenings. Many consumers are left paying much more than they thought. Most plans include huge deductibles and co-pays. Doing so means tens of millions face unaffordable out-of-pocket costs. Federal subsidies for America's ...
