A wheelchair is a wheeled mobility device in which the user sits. The device is propelled either manually (by turning the wheels by the hand) or via various automated systems. Wheelchairs are used by people for whom walking is difficult or impossible due to illness (physiological or physical), injury, or disability. The chair seat size (width and depth), seat-to-floor height, footrests/leg rests, front caster outriggers, adjustable backrests, controls, and many other features can be customized on, or added to, many basic models, while some users, often those with specialised needs, may have wheelchairs custom-built. The usual size of the rear wheel ranges from twenty to twenty-six inches in diameter. A larger wheel increases the height of the seat off the ground and decreases the rolling resistance, thus easing the effort of pushing. The rear wheels can be solid or pneumatic. Solid wheels have a low rolling resistance and are very easy to maintain. They are ideal for use in institutional settings or for indoor use in noncarpeted areas. Pneumatic wheels have better grip on carpeted surfaces and are better if there is going to be significant outdoor use, but they run the risk of flats and require higher maintenance. The flat tire problem can be circumvented by the use of a foam insert that can prevent leaks. Wire spokes are lighter in weight but higher in maintenance. Most older persons will select large plastic spokes referred to as mag wheels. The wheels can be offset posteriorly to decrease the risk of tipping backwards.

Heavy duty wheelchair can either be manually-operated or motorized, each with its own pros and cons. A manual heavy-duty wheelchair gives full control of motion to the user, but the added weight from the reinforcements makes pushing or propelling the wheelchair much harder than normal. A motorized heavy duty wheelchair offers a solution to this dilemma, but is often more expensive and harder to maintain than a manual wheelchair. Some designs offer a combination of both, with a small motor assisting those pushing the wheelchair. The proper choice between types of Heavy Duty wheelchair depends largely on the user's expected level of activity. Heavy duty wheelchairs typically have larger seats than conventional wheelchairs. The frames of these wheelchairs can be made from several different reinforced metals, although a titanium wheelchair is often the most popular choice.

Just a statement about in-vitro analysis, but this does fit with the growing body of evidence that Frankincese, particularly the acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid, has anti-cancer properties.  Wouldn't it be great to be able to fight cancer without killing the patient?

I can only find the abstract of this article.  This article fits with the growing body of evidence that low Testosterone is a poor prognostic factor for men with prostate cancer.  This very short abstract points to using low levels of "free Testosterone" as a biomarker to treat low-risk prostate cancer.

Interesting study looked at Total Testosterone (TT) and free Testosterone (FT) in older men in BMD assessment.  The authors found no change in TT, but a significant decline in free Testosterone.  This fits with other research pointing to free Testosterone as a better functional assessment tool.

high caffeine intake found to be associated with increased Testosterone and cortisol pre and post resistance work out times.  An elevated Testosterone would be good at both points.  However, an elevated cortisol would be catabolic during the recovery phase.  The study also found a decrease in insulin sensitivity with high caffeine intake.  This was improved with moderate and low intake.

Does Tamiflu work. The evidence says no.  New cochrane review: "The influenza virus-specific mechanism of action proposed by the produces does not fit the clinical evidence".

Meta analysis of salivary Testosterone and cortisol finds mixed results.  The results are by no means uniform, but resistance training appears to trend to an increased salivary Testosterone and salivary Testosterone to salivary cortisol ratio.  Cardio trends the opposite.  This fits with prior literature on the types of exercise and hormone results.
