BEIJING, July 18 (Xinhuanet) -- Researchers have found that people whose brains show early signs of Alzheimer's are twice as likely to fall as healthy people, according to Reuters reports Monday. The research findings were presented on Sunday at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in Paris. The new study involved 125 older adults, who took brain scans and contributed samples of their spinal fluid, and were also asked to keep a journal of how many times they fell during an eight-month period. Participants whose scans showed early signs of Alzheimer's reported an increased risk of falls. "To our knowledge, this is the first study to identify a risk of ...
STAY AWAY FROM CHEMOTHERAPY AND RADIATION [Full Thread]

For many years it has been known to well informed individuals within the medical community that chemotherapy and radiation were quite toxic and essentially worthless in the management of malignancies. This information is carefully covered up by our controlled media so that these two methods of therapy are regarded by lay persons as the proven therapy for malignancies. Like lemmings going over a cliff the general public lines up for these therapies and nearly all treated persons proceed to die. To the person who inquires how can an essentially worthless therapy continue to be used the answer is simple. It is all about money. Chemotherapy drugs bring in more than a trillion dollars annually ...

Patients suffering from a painful form of arthritis, which fuses bones in the spine and pelvis, may have hope for the future development of new treatments due to a breakthrough discovery at The University of Queensland. Researchers at The University of Queensland Diamantina Institute (UQDI) in Brisbane have made a major breakthrough in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the disease, ankylosing spondylitis (AS). AS causes the immune system to attack the spinal and pelvic joints, leading to chronic inflammation. Unlike other forms of arthritis where inflammation leads to bone loss, AS results in bone growth and can consequently cause the spine and/or pelvis become ...

WASHINGTON, July 15 (Xinhua) -- Researchers at Mount Sinai School of Medicine have found that grape seed polyphenols -- a natural antioxidant -- may help prevent the development or delay the progression of Alzheimer's disease. The research, led by Giulio Pasinetti, was published online Friday in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, which causes brain changes that gradually get worse. This is the first study to evaluate the ability of grape- derived polyphenols to prevent the generation of a specific form of amyloid (A) peptide, a substance in the brain long known to cause the neurotoxicity associated with Alzheimer's disease. In partnership with a team at the University of ...

Big Coal: Inbreeding, Not Mining, to Blame for Birth Defects

Last month, when coal execs read the report linking birth defects to mountaintop removal mining, they weren't exactly thrilled. One rebuttal, penned by four attorneys with the firm Crowell & Moring, which represents the National Mining Association, accused the study's authors of using cherry-picked and misleading data. But that apparently wasn't convincing enough, so they went a step further and employed a discredited stereotype about inbreeding in West Virginia. "The study failed to account for consanquinity [sic], one of the most prominent sources of birth defects," the attorneys' statement said. It then went on to advertise the firm's services to coal ...
Mass Psychosis in the U.S.

Has America become a nation of psychotics? You would certainly think so, based on the explosion in the use of antipsychotic medications. In 2008, with over $14 billion in sales, antipsychotics became the single top-selling therapeutic class of prescription drugs in the United States, surpassing drugs used to treat high cholesterol and acid reflux. Once upon a time, antipsychotics were reserved for a relatively small number of patients with hard-core psychiatric diagnoses - primarily schizophrenia and bipolar disorder - to treat such symptoms as delusions, hallucinations, or formal thought disorder. Today, it seems, everyone is taking antipsychotics. Parents are told that their unruly kids ...
Stem cells restore cognitive abilities impaired by brain cancer treatment: study

WASHINGTON, July 13 (Xinhua) -- Human neural stem cells are capable of helping people regain learning and memory abilities lost due to radiation treatment for brain tumors, a University of California, Irvine (UCI) study suggests. Research with rats found that stem cells transplanted two days after cranial irradiation restored cognitive function, as measured in one- and four-month assessments. In contrast, irradiated rats not treated with stem cells showed no cognitive improvement. "Our findings provide solid evidence that such cells can be used to reverse radiation-induced damage of healthy tissue in the brain," said Charles Limoli, a UCI radiation oncology professor.

Shortages of key drugs undermining US health care

Escalating shortages of vital drugs could be affecting nearly every hospital in the nation, forcing delays or substitutions in patient care, diverting pharmacy staff from crucial duties and racking up $216 million in costs to manage the situation nationwide. That’s the take-away message of two new surveys about the impact of rising drug shortages on clinical staff and patients, conducted by the American Hospital Association and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists. The groups planned to hold a Capitol Hill briefing Tuesday about the consequences of the worst-ever shortage of medically necessary and life-saving drugs in the nation’s history.

TORONTO - Health factors considered outside the box when it comes to the risk of getting Alzheimer's or another dementia — including whether a person's dentures fit properly or they suffer from poor eyesight or hearing — may in fact contribute to development of the brain disorders, researchers say. "Our study suggests that rather than just paying attention to already known risk factors for dementia, such as diabetes or heart disease, keeping up with your general health may help reduce the risk for dementia," said principal investigator Dr. Kenneth Rockwood of Dalhousie University. Rockwood, director of geriatric medicine research, said that an individual ...
Dietary Supplements Face Overkill While FDA-Approved Drugs Have a License To Kill

It’s the middle of summer on a holiday weekend, late on Friday afternoon, and the American public is readying themselves for another 4th of July celebration. It’s the typical point in time, when the populace is distracted, that government agencies often pick to release a bombshell that won’t likely be popular with the public. And it was some bombshell. The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) had secretively, albeit belatedly, drafted a 47-page guideline pointed at dietary supplement companies, with a demand they prove their newly introduced products are safe. It was written without input from industry. The rub is that the guideline extends back 16 years to any new dietary ...

Ponder this the next time you're at the pub or pouring a glass of Pinot Grigio. Plenty of countries have set limits for how much alcohol you should drink, from 14 pints a week for men in Ireland to half that for women in the United States. Whatever the recommendations, the Canadian Medical Association Journal says those rules aren't enough to prevent cancer. In an analysis released Monday, co-author Dr. Paule Latino-Martel says many nations' guidelines on alcohol consumption must be overhauled because they are only geared toward preventing booze's shortterm effects - such as psychological problems and hospital admissions. Many guidelines are also outof-date, full of ...

Disrobing the Culprit of Vitamin D3 Deficiency. Could it be that social evolution has made vitamin D deficiency a necessary evil? Studies have shown favorable effects on insulin secretion and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetic patients who received vitamin D3 supplementation. The study evaluated 10 females with type 2 diabetes. The patients enrolled in the study treated their diabetes with oral medications. The study was conducted in March, when levels of vitamin D are lowest due to lack of sunlight. A group of 17 females with normal glucose tolerance served as a control group. The diabetic patients were treated for a month with vitamin D3. After the month, the patient's receiving ...

Life After Prostate Surgery Is Worse Than Men Expect

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) Jul 01 - Nearly half of men who undergo surgery for prostate cancer find themselves with greater incontinence problems and less sexual function than they anticipated, according to a new poll. Before the surgery, some men in the study had expected to have better urinary and sexual function a year after the procedure than before it -- a misbelief the researchers say is out of step with reality. As part of the new survey, 152 men undergoing radical prostatectomy filled out a questionnaire before they had surgery but after they had received counseling on the risks of the procedure. The questions asked about their expectations of urinary, bowel and sexual function a ...

NEW YORK (Reuters) Jul 01 - Antimicrobial copper surfaces in intensive care units (ICU) kill 97% of bacteria that can cause nosocomial infections, according to preliminary results of a multisite clinical trial in the United States. The 97% reduction rate in bacteria on antimicrobial copper surfaces is the same as that achieved by "terminal" cleaning -- a process that is done after a patient leaves a room. The results also showed a 40% reduction in the risk of acquiring an infection. The study, presented at the World Health Organization's 1st International Conference on Prevention and Infection Control (ICPIC) in Geneva, Switzerland, on Friday, backed what research teams ...

FLAVONOID rich pink lady apples added to the diet may have a positive effect on cardiovascular health according to a recent trial at the UWA. UWA’s School of Medicine and Pharmacology PhD student Ms Catherine Bondonno says cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in Australia, causing 35 per cent of all deaths. “About 3.7 million Australians have CVD and 1.4 million have a disability associated with the disease impacting on their quality of life,” Ms Bondonno says. Ms Bondonno’s PhD project was to investigate the acute effect of high flavonoid apples on nitric oxide (NO) production and endothelial function, which are factors in cardiovascular ...
Privately insured heart patients had best outcomes

CHICAGO (Reuters) - Patients who had heart valve replacement surgery who were privately insured had better medical outcomes than the uninsured and Medicaid patients undergoing the same procedure, researchers said on Friday. As a result, the type of primary insurance should be considered an independent risk factor as patients and doctors weigh risks for surgery, they concluded. The study, published in the Journal of the American College of Surgeons, found that uninsured and Medicaid status independently increased the risk of in-hospital mortality and the likelihood of complications after the surgery. This was true even after accounting for socioeconomic status, hospital-related and other ...

Microwaves cook in reverse. 44840.jpegAlmost every family has a microwave oven. They are often used for warm up food in cafes and restaurants. Microwave ovens cook very quickly, and without thinking why, we shove everything into them - sandwiches, hot dogs, pizza, soup and milk. However, the impact of microwaves is radically different from all the traditional methods of cooking, which affects even the flavor. They are convenient, but are they safe?

Long, hot bath washes away loneliness

A new study indicates that physical warmth, such as a shower or bath, can relieve loneliness as a form of social coldness. Physical warmth, counted as a form of self-therapy, can restore social warmth when somebody feels isolated, according to the study published in APA PsycNET. Yale University scientists revealed that people who feel more socially excluded prefer warmer temperatures and the younger group even took longer shower or bath. "It appears that the 'coldness' of loneliness or rejection can be treated somewhat successfully through the application of physical warmth," wrote the study authors. Although the scientists failed to show a link between loneliness ...

An international team of surgeons have successfully carried out the world's first transplant of a synthetic windpipe, the Swedish hospital where the groundbreaking operation took place said Thursday. On June 9, a 36-year-old man suffering from late stage tracheal cancer, received a new trachea, or windpipe, made from a synthetic scaffold and covered with his own stem cells, the Karolinska University Hospital in the Stockholm suburb of Huddinge said in a statement. The so-called regenerative medical procedure could, according to the hospital, revolutionise the field of trachea transplants, making them far more accessible.
