Medical News TodayMedicine Looks Ahead at TED MED “If you open your minds and let your imaginings run wild, you can see.” J. Craig Venter, the genomic scientist and founder of the J. Craig Venter Institute, was speaking yesterday about the potential for techniques involved in the field of synthetic life to improve medicine, but his words could have been applied to the all the talks during the opening session of TED MED (“TED” is for technology, entertainment, design). The conference is running from October 27 through 30 at the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego. Speakers also described advances in using stem cells for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.Venter reviewed recent advances in “software building its own hardware.” That is, by inserting DNA from one organism into another , scientists have been able to use existing cellular machinery to read that DNA--transforming one species to another.

Medical News TodayNon-Compliance Despite Having Poor Asthma Control More than 1 in 3 patients referred to a specialty asthma clinic for poorly controlled asthma did not fill inhaled steroid prescriptions appropriately more than 50% of the time according to a study published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. Interestingly, none of the patients were suspected by the doctors as non-compliant prior to their referral and none of the patients admitted non-compliance as the reason for their poorly controlled asthma. Non-compliance was discovered in reviewing pharmacy records in a single payer system of health care. Medication compliance is not a one size fits all problem. Some patients have concerns about side effects and other patients have difficulties in obtaining medications. What is painfully clear from this study is that many asthmatics, even ones with really poorly controlled asthma, are not doing a good job of taking medications that are known to be beneficial. What do you think? Why do poorly controlled asthmatics AboutChange In Treating Pulmonary Embolisms Recommended By Stanford Study William Kuo, MD, was the on-call interventional radiologist one Friday night three years ago when he received a call from the intensive care unit at Stanford hospital & Clinics.

'I get very emotional when I think about what happened,' said Kuo, assistant professor of radiology at the Stanford University school of Medicine. Medical News TodayWorking Moms Less Likely to Receive Depression Treatment An analysis of national data on 2,130 mothers conducted by researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison school of Medicine found that working mothers were less likely to receive adequate treatment for their depression. A possible reason suggested for why these women do not receive the treatment they need is that they work long hours, making it difficult for them to find the time to seek help. It was also suggested by the report that, because of women's difficulties in finding time to seek help, the workplace would be a useful location to provide depression intervention. 'Services like employee-assistance programs can help these mothers get screened and treated, even if they are unable to visit a provider or a mental health professional in the health-care setting,' said study co-author Kristin Litzelman. 'Since healthy employees are productive employees, it's often a win-win for the employers to offer benefits that support employee mental health.' the researchers noted that AboutLymphoma Patients Benefit From Exercise A healthy dose of exercise is good medicine, even for lymphoma patients receiving chemotherapy, University of Alberta researchers have found. Medical News TodayMore People Rely On Alternative Medicine As consumers look to save money in a tough economy, many turn to alternative health care options.
