ATLANTA – Newly diagnosed diabetes cases have almost doubled in the U.S., within the past 10 years, the government reported.
The highest increase is in the South, according to the state-to-state review of new diagnoses. The worst situation was in West Virginia, where 13 in 1,000 adults were diagnosed with diabetes in 2005-07. The lowest ratio was in Minnesota, where the rate was 5 out of 1,000.
NEW YORK – Mother’s breastfeeding could have a constructive influence on behavior, in early childhood, according to results of a study presented Wednesday at the American Public Health Association’s annual meeting in San Diego.
In the study, parents of 1 to 5 year old children, who were breastfed as infants were 15 percent less likely to report concern for the child’s behavior than those parents, who were not breastfed.
In addition, breastfed children have 37 percent less chances to have doctor-diagnosed behavior or mental disorders or to have received mental health care.
The results based on more than 100,000 interviews with parents or guardians on the health of their children conducted as part of the 2003 National Survey of Children’s Health — also push studies that have showed breastfeeding enhances intellectual ability in children.
The risk of developing a debilitating and potentially lethal lung disorder called pulmonary hypertension is four times higher in women than in men, a new study says.
Pulmonary hypertension occurs due to high blood pressure in those arteries that supply blood to the lungs. In this condition the arteries that feed the lungs constrict and decrease the supply of oxygenated blood to circulate throughout the body. Usually, people feel tired and short of breath and tired because of that condition.
Dr. Adaani E. Frost, from the Baylor College of Medicine, in Houston, led that study and he and his team looked at data from the REVEAL registry that included more than 2,300 patients, then they compared it with the data they received from the U.S. National Institute of Health, a French registry and another large U.S. registry from one medical centre.
According to a U.S study, Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can increase the risk of gum disease.
A link between RA and periodontal disease has already been suggested by a previous study.
In the current study, the researchers examined 153 patients (ages 45 to 84) who had RA for an average of 11 year. Among them almost 82% patients reported periodontal symptoms like gum bleeding, swollen gum, gum recession etc.
The researchers found after further analysis that periodontal disease was particularly linked with a patient’s RA disease activity score and rheumatoid nodules.
Dr. Clifton O. Bingham, who led the study, says that: “Our findings show a high prevalence of moderate to severe periodontal disease in RA patients and strongly suggest a link between these two inflammatory diseases. To explain this link further and better understand the pathobiologic mechanisms, we will conduct a number of additional studies soon.”
Most of us have heard about Tantric massage. Different people have different view about this massage but basically it’s a way to relax like all other of its kind. However the concept of Tantric massage is if you are sexually happy and relaxed then your health will benefit. The Hindus describe Tantra as achieving personal growth through pleasurable existence. The massage itself does tend to cause orgasms, but these are described as a bonus rather than the aim.
Although Tantric massage does not involve actual penetrative sex but it does involve full on touching of the organs. For this reason you will not find it accessible down your local health centre. You are far more likely to find it on offer in the many massage parlours in Tantric massage London and other major cities. If you want to have a go with her or him indoors here is a pretty basic guide to Tantric massage.
In Tantric massage, manhood (Penis) is referred to as “Lingam” and the lady (Vigina) is called “Yoni”. Let’s face it those words sound much nicer than the alternatives.
