Coffee and cancer risk: a summary overview - 0 views

  •  
    2017 meta-analysis finds no increase relative risk (RR) of cancer with coffee consumption.  First, this must consider all the "other" junk put in coffee these days.  Second, and most important, this study looked at RR which tells us nothing about risk.  Studies like this don't do much more than confuse the general public, doctors, and judges--recent judge ruling in California that coffee needs a carcinogenic lable.  Third, epigenetis will tell us about individual risk.  I am growing more concerned that the majority of studies published today are merely statistical dances to ensure publication.  Is it good that no RR was found? yes, does that give any indication of absolute risk?  No.  Take home: enjoy your morning cup of joe as nature prescribed--no additives.

    Nembutal Liquid is best quality and prices at First Trust Chemicals. Visit our website and place your order online. Nembutal Liquid Pentobarbital (trade name: Nembutal) is a drug from the barbiturate class. It was widely used during the 1940s and 1950s as a sleeping pill (i.e. hypnotic) or anti-anxiety drug (i.e. sedative). Unlike modern sleeping pills, Nembutal is highly lethal in overdose. Because it is very reliable and brings about peaceful death, it is one of drugs of choice for assisted suicide. Nembutal is used by euthanasia organizations in the United States (Oregon Death With Dignity Act), Switzerland (Dignitas) and The Netherlands. Nembutal Liquid Since it was so easy to overdose on Nembutal (whether accidentally or intentionally), it was almost universally taken off the market and replaced by safer sleeping pills. Nembutal was removed from the Australian prescribing schedule in 1998. However, Nembutal remains in use by veterinary surgeons in order to euthanase bigger animals. Many people were successful in obtaining veterinary Nembutal for their suicide. The famous American actress Marilyn Monroe supposedly used Nembutal to end her life. The brand name "Nembutal" was coined by Dr. John S. Lundy, who started using it in 1930, from the structural formula of the sodium salt-Na (sodium) + ethyl + methyl + butyl + al (common suffix for barbiturates). Nembutal is trademarked and manufactured by the Danish pharmaceutical company Lundbeck

Reclining Commode Wheelchair - 0 views

  •  
    wheelchair category (standard, transport, power, etc.) could be classified as a reclining wheelchairs, since the product class is built around one key feature: the capability to adjust the backrest and/or footrest into a reclined position. This feature is especially important to users who find it difficult or impossible to sit in a fully upright position, and users who sleep in their chairs frequently. For those that are looking for a more portable chair, however, products from this category may not be a great fit. When compared with a similar, non-reclining chair, a reclining wheelchair tends to weigh more and - unlike other manual models - manual wheelchairs that recline typically aren't foldable. Some people use special wheelchairs to distribute pressure and thus reduce the risk of skin sores. These chairs also increase comfort and sitting tolerance. One type of chair, called "tilt in space," changes a person's orientation while maintaining fixed hip, knee, and ankle angles. The whole seat, in effect, tilts. The other chair option is called a recline system, which basically changes the seat-to-back angle, flattening out the back of the chair and in some cases raising the legs to form a flat surface.

    Pediatric wheelchairs enable child or teen to participate in all types of daily activities. Pediatric wheelchairs are lightweight, portable, and convenient for use at school, day programs, doctor visits, and recreation with family and friends. Pediatric wheelchairs comes in wide range of sizes and vibrant colors for every lightweight wheelchair. A variety of positioning options are also available. Pediatric wheelchairs are manufactured with unsurpassed quality and style, specializing in compact-folding, lightweight wheelchairs for children of all ages - from toddlers to teens! Custom built to child's specific needs, mobility aids offer rehabilitative benefits for physical disabilities from Cerebral Palsy to Autism. Pediatric, or child wheelchairs, are mobile aids designed for and used by children. Children require the use of a wheelchair for many different reasons, some may have suffered head injuries, some have muscular dystrophy or cerebral palsy, some are amputees, and others only have an occasional use of their wheelchairs in lieu of a walking device or crutches. Certain types of pediatric wheelchairs are built to expand in size to accommodate increased bulk and weight by altering a cross balance on the bottom of the chair. The front frames for the legs can be lengthened as child's legs grow longer. For a pediatrician seeking to prescribe a Pediatric Wheelchair, must be sure that the patient has the proper upper body strength to use one. If the patient is too weak for self movement, the practitioner would be better to consider a powered wheelchair for mobility. While Pediatric Wheelchairs are smaller and can be just as manuverable as scooters, that depends upon the patient's own abilities in steering the chair. These are factors that the doctor must think about before recommending what type of wheelchair a patient should get. Pediatric Wheelchair with a body contouring S-Shaped seat frame and contoured armrests provides the user with all day comfort an

Normalization of testosterone level is associated with reduced incidence of myocardial infarction and mortality in men | European Heart Journal - 0 views

  • In this study of men with low TT levels and without prior MI or stroke, normalization of TT levels using TRT is associated with lower all-cause mortality, fewer MIs, and ischaemic strokes.
  • retrospective study
  • significant benefit is observed only if the dose is adequate to normalize the TT levels
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • the mechanisms for these effects remain speculative
  • It can be postulated that the beneficial effect of normal T levels on adipose tissue, insulin sensitivity, and lipid profiles or by its anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant properties, as reported by other investigators, might have contributed to our findings
  • off-label use of TRT remains a concern
  • Recent FDA analyses suggest that currently only half of the men on TRT had been diagnosed with hypogonadism
  • 25% of users did not have their T concentrations tested prior to initiating therapy
  • 21% of those prescribed TRT did not have their levels tested at any time during treatment
  • two very recent meta-analyses suggested a lack of convincing evidence posed by TRT.
  • men without a history of previous MI or stroke who have low TT levels, TRT might be associated with decreased risks of MI, ischaemic stroke, and all-cause mortality in long-term follow-up
  • TRT should aim for doses resulting in normalization of TT level as this was shown to be associated with reduction in adverse CV events

The Risk of Fluoroquinolone-induced Tendinopathy and Tendon Rupture - 0 views

  • Achilles tendinitis or rupture is among the most serious side effects associated with FQ use
  • The large body of data provided by clinical reports, histopathological examination, and experimental studies provides cogent evidence supporting a direct link between FQ use and tendonitis/tendon rupture
  • Risk factors associated with FQ-induced tendon disorders include age greater than 60 years, corticosteroid therapy, renal failure, diabetes mellitus, and a history of musculoskeletal disorders
  • ...17 more annotations...
  • The average age of FQ-induced tendinopathy is 64 years, with a male-to-female ratio of 2:1, and a 27-percent incidence of bilateral involvement
  • Although more than 95 percent of cases of tendinitis/rupture secondary to FQ involve the Achilles tendon, other reported sites of tendon involvement include the quadriceps, peroneus brevis, and rotator cuff
  • FQs demonstrate a 3.8-fold greater risk for development of Achilles tendinitis/rupture
  • a large population-based case control analysis, patients treated with FQs exhibited a substantially increased risk of developing tendon disorders overall (1.7-fold), tendon rupture (1.3-fold), and ATR (4.1-fold)
  • patients taking FQs with concurrent exposure to corticosteroids were found to experience a compounding effect on the risk of tendon rupture, specifically a 46-fold greater predisposition
  • Some authors have recommended that patients with a history of Achilles tendinitis and advanced age should not be prescribed FQ antibiotics
  • Approximately 50 percent of patients will recover within 30 days, with 25 percent of patients having symptoms persistent for longer than two months
  • Approximately 85 percent of patients present in less than one month
  • The exact pathophysiology of FQ-induced tendinopathy remains elusive
  • it is possible that FQs have a direct cytotoxic effect on enzymes found in mammalian musculoskeletal tissue
  • It has been theorized that FQs disproportionately affect human tendons that have a limited capacity for repair, such as in older patients or structural compromise (i.e., pre-existing tendinopathy or trauma)
  • histopathological findings are similar to those observed in overuse conditions in athletes
  • Treatment with a FQ should be discontinued and physical therapy initiated
  • treatment should include rest and decreasing the physical load on the tendon.
  • The mean latency period between the start of FQ treatment and occurrence of tendinopathy has been reported to be a few hours to months, with a median onset of 6 days
  • Because rupture can occur even late in the course of treatment or after discontinuation of FQ use, patients receiving a FQ should be counseled to seek medical attention immediately if symptoms, such as redness, pain, swelling, and stiffness, develop
  • FQs should be used cautiously in patients with risk factors associated with tendinitis, such as advanced age, history of tendon rupture, corticosteroid use, and/or acute or chronic renal dysfunction
