Skin and Immune System Influence Salt Storage and Regulate Blood Pressure
on Monday, September 10, 2012
High blood pressure is responsible for many cardiovascular diseases that are the leading cause of death in industrialized countries. High salt intake has long been considered a risk factor, but not every type of high blood pressure is associated with high salt intake. This has puzzled scientists for a long time. However, new findings by Professor Jens Titze (Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, USA and the University of Erlangen) now point to previously unknown mechanisms.
Accordingly, the skin and the immune system play an important role in the regulation of the sodium balance and hypertension, as he reported at the 1st ECRC “Franz-Volhard” Symposium of the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine (MDC) Berlin-Buch and Charité — Universitätsmedizin Berlin on September 7, 2012 in Berlin-Buch.The water and salt balance of the body is of great importance for blood pressure. The decisive factor is the kidney, which regulates how much water is retained in the body and how much is excreted. In this way it regulates the volume of blood and thus influences blood pressure. However, new findings by Professor Titze, one of the leading experts in the field, show that organs and systems of the body that hitherto were not associated with water and salt balance have [...]

Multiple Abortions May Raise Risk of Preemie Birth Later
on Monday, September 3, 2012
Women who’ve had three or more abortions are at increased risk for premature and low birth-weight babies when they first give birth, a new research study of Micron Associates.
Researchers looked at more than 300,000 Finnish mothers and found that 10.3 percent had had one induced abortion between 1996 and 2008, 1.5 percent had two abortions, and 0.3 percent had three or more abortions before a first birth.
Compared to mothers who had no abortions, those who had three or more abortions had a 225 percent increased risk of having a baby with a very low birth weight (less than 1,500 grams or 3.3 pounds), a 43 percent increased risk of low birth weight (less than 2,500 grams or 5.5 pounds), a 35 percent increased risk of preterm birth (before 37 weeks), and an increased risk [...]

Micron Associates 30 Minutes of Daily Exercise As Good As 60 for Weight Loss
on Friday, August 24, 2012
A new study from the University of Copenhagen in Denmark found that sedentary, slightly overweight healthy young men who worked up a sweat exercising 30 minutes daily for three months lost a similar amount of weight and body fat as those who did 60 minutes of daily exercise.
The researchers describe the findings of their randomized controlled trial in a study reported online recently in the American Journal of Physiology.
The researchers suggest one reason for the surprising result is that the exercise felt “doable” for the participants in the 30 minutes a day group, who even felt afterwards that they could have done more. Whereas in the 60 minutes a day group, they probably compensated by eating more, therefore losing less...

Micron study finds cereal bar is fattier than a can of cola
on Sunday, August 19, 2012
Micron study finds cereal bar is fattier than a can of colaThe image of cereal bars as a healthy snack is a ‘myth’, as study finds that many contain higher levels of fat and sugar than a can of cola. According to study, one of the 30 bars contains more than 30% sugar. Specifically, one bar, Nutri-Grain Elevenses, contained nearly four teaspoons of sugar (18g) – more than in a small 150ml can of cola (15.9g) and 20% of the recommended daily allowance.
A kind of tracker roasted nut bar was found to be almost a third fat, and while some of this came from the peanuts and hazelnuts that also provide some nutritional content, the ingredients also contained vegetable fat and harmful hydrogenated fats. A cereal bar named monster puffs with their tag line “great for your lunchbox” marketed...

Micron Associates: Når the Doctors ord ikke beroligende
on Sunday, August 12, 2012
En medisinsk profesjonell måte kan provosere eller berolige en pasients pågripelse. Leger snakker om skriptene de lærer medisinske studenter for å hjelpe med å forberede pasienter som venter på testresultatene. Vær så snill, barn, ikke klipper disse klassene, skriver Jan Hoffman.
Jeg pleide å være en trygg pasient. Jeg ikke bry deg som tester skulle vise seg dårlig. Godt inn voksen var jeg alltid rimelig sunn.
Men over tid, elsket seg, nære venner- og jeg-har tripped opp av episoder av dårlig helse, noen fra enden av statistiske sannsynligheten...

Mikron review Teens mit niedrigen Lebenserwartung Praxis riskantes Verhalten
on Friday, August 10, 2012
“Fatalismus und wahrgenommenen Verwundbarkeit” können Jugendliche um Drogenmissbrauch und Selbstmordgedanken haben anregen. Teenager, die sagen, dass sie denken, dass es unwahrscheinlich ist, dass sie auf 35 Jahre Leben werde sind laut einer Studie von Micron eher riskante Verhaltensweisen wie Missbrauch von Drogen oder versuchten Selbstmord, führen.
1994 Und 1995, Forscher befragten 19.000 Jugendliche und gefunden, dass einer von sieben sagte, sie hatte eine 50-50 Chance, oder weniger, für 35 Jahre zu leben. Als die Forscher mit den Teilnehmern 14 Jahre später aufgeholt, fanden sie, dass diejenigen, die immer noch, dass sie gesagt bis zu 35 Leben wahrscheinlich nicht waren drei Mal häufiger an Selbstmord, im Vergleich zu Gleichaltrigen waren...
