How Touching Saves Lives

When I was a fourth-year medical student, I once did a month-long rotation in the ER. One night a woman came in who we decided needed some lab work. When I let her know we needed to draw her blood, she began to tremble visibly. "I'm scared of needles," she whispered to me.She squeezed her eyes shut as the phlebotomist set up next to her gurney to draw her blood. "It'll be over before you know it," I tried to encourage her. She didn't even acknowledge I'd spoken.The phlebotomist glanced at me once, concerned probably more that the patient was going to jump or prove to be a hard stick, and then said to her, "You're going to feel a little poke."The patient tensed, tears appearing at the corners of her closed eyes. Not knowing what else to do, I reached out and took her hand, feeling awkward a...

Connectomics signatures of prenatal cocaine exposure affected adolescent brains

AbstractRecent in vivo neuroimaging studies revealed that several brain networks are altered in prenatal cocaine exposure (PCE) affected adolescent brains. However, due to a lack of dense and corresponding cortical landmarks across individuals, the systematical alterations of functional connectivities in large?scale brain networks and the alteration of structural brain architecture in PCE affected brain are largely unknown. In this article, we adopted a newly developed data?driven strategy to build a large set of cortical landmarks that are consistent and corresponding across PCE adolescents and their matched controls. Based on these landmarks, we constructed large?scale functional connectomes and applied the well?established approaches of deriving genomics signatures in genome?w...

Short sleep duration and its association with energy metabolism

SummaryA growing body of observational evidence suggests that short sleep duration is a risk factor for the development of obesity. Although increased energy intake is the most prevailing causal explanation for this association, we should also consider possible effects on energy metabolism to understand fully the potential impact of short sleep duration on the regulation of energy balance. We performed a search of the literature from 1970 to 2011, including original papers, investigating the relation between short sleep and energy metabolism in animals and humans. Although the limited number of experimental studies in humans precludes any definitive conclusions about causality, short sleep duration does not seem to substantially affect total daily energy expenditure, nor is there sufficien...

A novel lipocalin homologue from the venom gland of Deinagkistrodon acutus similar to mammalian lipocalins

Lipocalins are involved in a variety of functions including retinol transport, cryptic coloration, olfaction, pheromone transport, prostaglandin synthesis, regulation of the immune response and cell homeostatic mediation. A full-length cDNA clone (named d-lipo), isolated from the venom gland cDNA library of Deinagkistrodon acutus, contained an insert of 664 bp including an open reading frame that encodes a lipocalin homologue of 177 amino acids. Comparison of d-lipo and other related proteins revealed an overall amino acid identity of less than 21.5%. Primary structures of d-lipo carried three structurally conserved regions (SCR) showing homologies to those of lipocalins. The first conserved Cys residue - the essential amino acid residue for the catalytic activity and unique to lipocalin-t...

Pennsylvania Law To End Mandatory Overtime for Some Health Care Workers

Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell (D) on Thursday signed into law a bill that will prohibit health care facilities from requiring mandatory overtime of staff, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. The law, set to take effect in July 2009, seeks to protect health care facilities from forcing nurses, technicians, technologists, certified nursing assistants and phlebotomists, and other caregivers from being disciplined or discriminated against for refusing to work overtime. Mandatory overtime would be allowed in some cases, such as a natural disaster, but it could be used only as a last resort and employees would have to be given one hour to arrange for family care. Employers also are prohibited from using on-call time in place of mandatory overtime. Violators can be fined from $100 to $1,000 per vio...

AbstractAlthough Asian cultural practices, such as acupuncture and threading, are widely used, there is limited medical literature describing their cutaneous effects and complications. This review briefly describes therapeutic cultural practices (traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, coining, Ayurveda, and aromatherapy) and cosmetic cultural practices (hair oils, henna, bindis, saris, and threading), with particular attention to dermatoses secondary to these practices. Traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda may cause heavy metal toxicity, severe cutaneous adverse reactions, and contact dermatitis. Cupping, moxibustion, and coining lead to dermatoses that may be mistaken for abuse by people unfamiliar with the practices. Hair oils may cause contact dermatitis a...

An initiative to fight childhood obesity is now underway in five New Jersey cities -- Newark, New Brunswick, Camden, Vineland and Trenton -- where parks and gardens are blooming to battle the epidemic’s alarming consequences of children who struggle to climb stairs or who suffer from preventable diseases like diabetes and hypertension… It’s all part of the work by the New Jersey Partnership for Healthy Kids, with seed money from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, to bring scores of stakeholders in the cities together to advocate for policies and environmental changes to increase access to physical exercise and healthy foods.

Screening for hereditary hemochromatosis a systematic review for the US Preventive Services Task Force

Author's objectives
To assess whether genetic screening for hereditary haemochromatosis is appropriate. Two review questions contributed to this objective: (1) Does earlier therapeutic phlebotomy reduce morbidity and mortality in individuals with primary iron overload resulting from hereditary haemochromatosis, compared with treatment after diagnosis in routine clinical care; and (2) Are there groups at increased risk for hereditary haemochromatosis that can be easily identified before genetic screening. The review also examined the risk of developing haemochromatosis in C282Y homozygous individuals; this review question is not reported here.

Author's conclusions
There was insufficient evidence to predict the impact of either widespread or high-risk screening for genetic haemochromatosis,...

Body Massage Performance Investigation by Brain Activity Analysis

Massage has been widely applied to improve health and reduce stress. However, the performance difference between hands-on treatment and treatment by mechanical devices has been little mentioned. Therefore, the main aim of this paper is to investigate a subject's EEG performance under massage treatment applied by hand and treatment applied by mechanical devices. Massage was applied to four acupoints for three minutes each. The massage acupoint sequence was from left Jian-wai-yu, right Jian-wai-yu, left Zuo-fei-yu, and finally right Zuo-fei-yu. An EEG system of 32 channels was used. Twenty-four volunteers, mainly college students, were enrolled. EEG rhythm powers of each massage sessions were derived.

Symptoms of Diabetes

The symptoms of all forms of diabetes are alike. One symptom is having to urinate a lot. Other symptoms include blurry vision, itchy skin or skin infections, sores that take a long time to heal, unusual thirst, tiredness, dizzy spells, nerve pain, and losing weight while being hungry all the time. If you have type 2 diabetes, you may have mild symptoms for many years before learning you have the illness. You may have no symptoms but find out you have the disease after ascreening test at the doctor?s office. Diagnosis is important, even when symptoms are mild or absent. Early detection can prevent the health problems that arise sooner or later from untreated type 2 diabetes. (Source: scientifically minded)

How Touching Saves Lives

When I was a fourth-year medical student, I once did a month-long rotation in the ER. One night a woman came in who we decided needed some lab work. When I let her know we needed to draw her blood, she began to tremble visibly. "I'm scared of needles," she whispered to me.She squeezed her eyes shut as the phlebotomist set up next to her gurney to draw her blood. "It'll be over before you know it," I tried to encourage her. She didn't even acknowledge I'd spoken.The phlebotomist glanced at me once, concerned probably more that the patient was going to jump or prove to be a hard stick, and then said to her, "You're going to feel a little poke."The patient tensed, tears appearing at the corners of her closed eyes. Not knowing what else to do, I reached out and took her hand, feeling awkward a...

Children?s celebrate new satellite location on North Shore

To better serve families living on the North Shore, Children?s Hospital Boston recently opened a new 40,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art specialty care center in Peabody called Boston Children?s North.
In addition to expanding the Cardiology, Neurology and Developmental Medicine services, Boston Children’s North offers a number of new services not previously available at our old facility: phlebotomy, EEG, urology testing and an Allergy Clinic. Four new imaging services have also been added: MRI, Diagnostic, Ultrasound and Fluoroscopy.


Even though Boston Children’s North has been open for over a month, it wouldn’t be a grand opening without our staff, patients and their families. On Saturday, March 12, from 1 to 3 p.m., Boston Children’s North will host an aft...

CFD simulation of mixing for high?solids anaerobic digestion

AbstractA computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model that simulates mechanical mixing for high?solids anaerobic digestion was developed. Numerical simulations of mixing manure slurry which exhibits non?Newtonian pseudo?plastic fluid behavior were performed for six designs: (1) one helical ribbon impeller, (2) one anchor impeller, (3) one curtain?type impeller, (4) three counterflow (CF?2) impellers, (5) two modified high solidity (MHS 3/39o) impellers, and (6) two pitched blade turbine impellers. The CFD model was validated against measurements for mixing a Herschel?Bulkley fluid by ribbon and anchor impellers. Based on mixing time with respect to mixing energy level, three impeller types (ribbon, CF?2, and MHS 3/39�) stand out when agitating highly viscous fluids, of these mi...

Long but funny and interesting talk about the extraordinary talents of introverts
In a culture where being social and outgoing are prized above all else, it can be difficult, even shameful, to be an introvert. But, as Susan Cain argues in this passionate talk, introverts bring extraordinary talents and abilities to the world, and should be encouraged and celebrated.

Dr Dillner's health dilemmas: is it safe to take sleeping pills?

Even a few sleeping tablets may increase your risk of early death, according to new research. So what should insomniacs do now?You have been lying awake for hours, or at least it feels like it. You are desperate for sleep, but it just won't come. In the medicine cabinet are some sleeping tablets your doctor gave you, but the media has been full of warnings that they aren't safe. A paper published last week in the journal BMJ Open looked at 10,500 people who had taken sleeping tablets and compared them to similar people who had not taken medication. It found that people who took pills twice a month or more are nearly four times as likely to die early as those who don't. So should you bin the sleeping pills or take a couple to break the cycle of i...

Pathophysiology of Anemia During the Neonatal Period, Including Anemia of Prematurity

This review summarizes the current thinking about the causes of anemia universally experienced by preterm infants in the early postnatal weeks. In addition to describing developmentally determined physiologic processes contributing to anemia of prematurity, this review discusses clinically important nonphysiologic contributors to anemia experienced by preterm infants during the neonatal period. Chief among these and an important contributor to the need for red blood cell transfusions is the heavy laboratory phlebotomy loss sustained shortly after birth, when neonatal cardiorespiratory illness is most severe. Understanding and recognizing the physiologic and nonphysiologic processes contributing to anemia encountered in early postnatal life is important in knowing which treatment and preven...
