From Maryland - Obesity rates in the US are still high and have not changed much in recent years, according to a report published in JAMA . Analyzing data from a nationally representative sample, researchers found that one in three adults and one in six children and teens are obese, while there have been increases in obesity rates among certain demographics.
From Texas - A new report published in Science Translational Medicine describes how cigarette smoke causes emphysema. Studying mice, researchers found that toxic cigarette smoke activates a host of genes in the immune system that in turn inflame the lungs, resulting in emphysema.
And finally, from Quebec - A new report published in the Lancet emphasizes the importance of diagnosing and treating insomnia early. Researchers reviewed evidence regarding the sleep disorder, finding that insomnia patients are over 5x more likely to have anxiety and depression, 2x more likely to develop congestive heart failure and diabetes, and 7x more likely to develop substance abuse problems

[LESS INFO] 23 VIEWS | ADDED 21:00:00 07/01/10
(July 1, 2010 - Insidermedicine)
From Toronto - According to a report published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society , physically active women are less likely to develop cognitive impairment later in life. Researchers studied nearly 10,000 women at several points in their lives, finding that physical activity particularly in teenage years--but also at age 30 and 50--reduced risk of late life cognitive impairment.
From the UK - A rheumatoid arthritis drug also reduces damage incurred by stroke, according to a report presented at the annual lecture of The Physiological Society. Lab research has shown that the rheumatoid arthritis drug 'anakinra' reduces brain damage suffered from stroke by blocking the IL-1 protein.
And finally, from Washington - According to a report released by Trust for America's Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, obesity rates in the US are still increasing. Researchers studied obesity rates from 2006-2009, finding that obesity rates increased in 28 states, and that 67% of adults and 33% of children and teenagers are obese.

INSIDERMEDICINE VIDEO: Health Canada Issues Warning Over Acai Berry Products, New Avenue for Blood Clot Treatments, Alcohol Raises Risk of Breast Cancer Recurrence
[LESS INFO] 37 VIEWS | ADDED 23:00:00 12/10/09
(December 10, 2009 - Insidermedicine)
From Ottawa - Canadians should be wary of taking certain acai berry products, according to a warning from Health Canada. The warning comes following the discovery that shipments of acai berry products crossing the Canadian border were found to contain sildenafil--a medication for erectile dysfunction. Sildenafil should not be taken unless supervised by a doctor, as it is a prescription medication and people with heart problems may be at increased risk of stroke and heart attack should they take the drug.
From Leeds - According to a report published in the journal Cell, researchers may have found a new approach to treating blood clots. Currently, most patients with blood clots are treated with the anticoagulant Warfarin--a medication that thins the blood but also puts the patient at risk of excessive bleeding if they get injured. Researchers have now discovered, however, that the molecule polyphosphate contributes to the blood clot in the artery without adversely affecting the patient's wound healing ability--a discovery that could make the molecule a new target in blood clot treatments.
And finally, from California - Moderate alcohol consumption significantly increases a woman's risk for breast cancer recurrence, according to research presented at the 2009 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium. Researchers studied nearly 1,900 breast cancer survivors for eight years. They found that three to four alcoholic drinks per week, regardless of the type, increased breast cancer recurrence risk by 30%, with obese women and postmenopausal women at the greatest risk.

The Masthead Episode 51
[LESS INFO] 2 VIEWS | ADDED 15:45:02 05/08/09
Sleeping seems to get more and more difficult for thousands of women all over the country. With the added anxieties of work, family and a dwindling economy, the hours we spend asleep are lessening and the amount of exhaustion and frustration is growing. The Masthead of Marie Claire gets to the bottom of America's sleeplessness and adds advice and much needed incite as to how to get a good night's rest.
If you’re having trouble falling asleep, you’re in good company. An estimated 65% of Americans said they encounter sleep problems a few nights each week, according to a recent study by the National Sleep Foundation .
Sleeping too little is linked with an increased risk for obesity and depression. But before you reach for a sleep aid from the nearest pharmacy, it’s worth reexamining your nighttime routine. Some of your favorite evening rituals could be responsible for that tossing and turning.
Go From Night Owl to Early Bird (and Get the Worm!)
Who says bedtime is just for kids? Take lots of care to maintain a sleeping schedule, especially on the weekends. Your body likes to routines, and needs to keep one. If your bedtime is random—11 pm some nights, 1 a.m. others—your mind won’t be well prepared to snooze during the work week.

Too Much Media Exposure Leads to Health Issues Among Children, Drug-Eluting Stents Better Than Bare Metal, Smoking During Pregnancy Leads to Developmental Risks
[LESS INFO] 40 VIEWS | ADDED 21:00:00 12/02/08
(December 2, 2008 - Insidermedicine) From Washington - In an analysis of 173 studies, researchers from the National Institutes of Health and Yale University have found that spending too much time in front of the TV, playing video games, and surfing the Web increases the risk for many health problems among children. Overall, three-quarters of the studies found that increased media viewing was linked to negative health outcomes. One study in particular found that 3-year olds who spent more than 8 hours watching TV each week were more likely to be obese by age 7.
From the Netherlands - According to research in the Journal of the American College Of Cardiology, drug-eluting stents are more effective than the bare metal variety, even among diabetics. In a study of over 1,800 patients, including over 250 with diabetes, researchers found that those who received drug-eluting stents had half the risk of heart attack, stroke or death as those who received bare metal stents. The researchers note that coronary artery bypass graft surgery is still more effective at reducing the need for repeat procedures.
And finally, from France - According to research in the journal Sleep, smoking heavily during pregnancy increases the risk for developmental difficulties among preterm infants. In a study of 40 healthy preterm infants, researchers found that those who were born to mothers who smoked during pregnancy weighed less at birth by 11% if exposed to 10 or fewer cigarettes per day, and 21% if exposed to heavier smoking. It was also found that infants exposed to heavy smoking spent 18% less total time asleep.
