Are Airlines Unfair to Pet Owners? - (USA)
Airlines Bleed Customers for Pet TravelBy George Gombossy - The Hartford CourantA note today from Archer who lives in Western Connecticut complaining - rightly - about being charged $150 to fly the couple's cat one way from Connecticut to Floriday."Only two airlines that fly into Fort Myers (Delta and US Airways) allow you to take a cat in the cabin.The cat must weigh less than 15 pounds and fit in a pet carrier under the seat in front of you.

Asperger’s Syndrome: Asperger Syndrome Details - (USA)
Asperger’s Syndrome: Asperger Syndrome Details Asperger Syndrome Details: Asperger syndrome (AS) is an autism spectrum disorder, and people with it therefore show significant difficulties in social interaction, along with stereotypies and other restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests. It differs from other autism spectrum disorders by its relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development. Although not required for diagnosis, physical clumsiness and atypical us

Autism is Not Mental Illness: Get it Out of the DSM - (USA)
Gabby, a friend from the Healing-Low-Functioning-Autism Yahoo list, posted this very imformative article that I am sharing on this blog. By Jill Rubolino In this month of Autism Awareness, I am ever so aware of the great disparity for our children on the autism spectrum regarding their diagnosis and healthcare. It brings to light some major changes that need to take place in order to not only stop the perpetual, exponentially expanding numbers of children developing autism, but to prov

Real Cause of Global Warming: Fat Hatred - (USA)
First - I believe Global Warming is real. WHY? Because I love to garden. And that puts me in direct contact with plants, growth cycles, the soil - and I can see FOR MYSELF what is happening because of changes in the weather. Second, I have talked a lot on this blog that I am obese. I recently learned that I have to have major surgery at the end of May for the removal of PCOS related growths that I have had for a number of years which have caused my belly to distend and make me app

If Marijuana Is Legal, Will Addiction Rise? - (USA)
Richard M. Hackett/Associated Press/Longmont DailyA New York Times article on Sunday discussed the debate over whether more and more potent types of cannabis affect the levels of addiction to the drug. This particular issue has become part of the larger debate over whether marijuana should be legalized or decriminalized. Antidrug activists say that if the drug is legalized, more people will use it and addiction levels, made worse by the increased potency, will rise too. Legalization advocates

Types of Diabetes Mellitus and Fitness Nutrition Therapy - (USA)
If you are a health-conscious person, you would have come across the word diabetes mellitus or even heard of it a few times yourself. Thus, with that in mind, I will focus briefly on the aspect of classification and non-pharmacological therapy of DM. Classification of Diabetes Type 1 DM Type 1 DM is known as insulin-dependent DM as patients have little or unable to synthesize insulin hormone. Hence the name, they will eventually be dependent on insulin injection for their survival. This ty

Can living in rainy areas really cause one-third of autism cases? - (USA)
At first, this study sounded like it might have been published in the Journal of Spurious Correlations or an entry for the Spurious Correlations Contest and would provide a note of levity. A few years ago, three economists had self-published a paper reporting a correlation between rising rates of cable television subscriptions and autism in Northwest coastal areas since the 1970s. That was funny because, of course, anything that has increased since the 1970s could be said to spuriously correlate

For Ollie. - (USA)
Since last week, I’ve had a plan for today. On Wednesday, August 5th, I was going to post about a little boy named Ollie , in honor of his first birthday. And then two days ago, at 5:30 in the morning, Ollie died. It seems exceptionally cruel to cause parents to lose their child and then, two days later, be visited by what would have been his first birthday. But then, Spinal Muscular Atrophy is an exceptionally cruel disease. I first learned about Ollie right around the time of his diagn

SNPwatch: Genetic Variation May Influence Heart Surgery Recovery - (USA)
SNPwatch gives you the latest news about research linking various traits and conditions to individual genetic variations. These studies are exciting because they offer a glimpse into how genetics may affect our bodies and health; but in most cases, more work is needed before this research can provide information of value to individuals. For that reason it is important to remember that like all information we provide, the studies we describe in SNPwatch are for research and educational purposes o

Jaundice - (USA)
Definition: Jaundice, also known as icterus (attributive adjective: “icteric”), is yellowish discoloration of the skin, sclerae (whites of the eyes) and mucous membranes caused by hyperbilirubinemia (increased levels of bilirubin in the blood). This hyperbilirubinemia subsequently causes increased levels of bilirubin in the extracellular fluids. Typically, the concentration of bilirubin in the plasma must exceed 1.5 mg/dL, three times the usual value of approximately 0.5mg/dL, for the colorati

10 Most Formidable Diseases - (USA)
Modern medicine entered a period of rapid progress during the turn of the 20 th century. More advances have been made in the last half of this century than in all of modern history.

Do you want to know if you might get Alzheimers? - (USA)
As medicine continues to advance , so does the testing that becomes available to consumers. I’m not talking about typical lab-work, I’m talking about genetic testing. Companies, such as Navigenics*, promises consumers an analysis of their “DNA for genetic risk markers associated with a wide variety of important health conditions.” Specifically, they claim they can predict your likelihood of developing Alzheimers, various cancers (Breast, colon, lung, prostate and stomach), multiple scle

From Intolerance to Tolerance to Acceptance - (USA)
F reddie has made a strong argument against viewing autism as a positive thing to be celebrated. In so doing - and keeping in mind that he is our resident liberal - Freddie argues that such views are political correctness run amok. To complete the role reversal, I, one of our two resident self-avowed libertarians, am going to argue that at least mild autism, Asperger’s, and various other disorders, including ADHD, are in fact things that society should learn to celebrate.

why we do not vaccinate. - (USA)
Okay, let me preface this by saying that I know its a touchy subject. I am not trying to push my views on anyone else, and I fully support those of you who vaccinate, as well as those of you who don't. I think that vaccinations are an important part of our medical evolution and that they have made significant and positive changes in our society to keep diseases from overtaking our communities in the modern day. I know that diseases still exist such as polio, measles, etc. I'm aware of the r

Are Autism and Schitzophrenia the Same Disease? - (USA)
Now that the election is over, all of our brains are free to consider a broad range of topics beyond electoral politics. Thank goodness, right? I was fascinated by a piece from yesterday's Science Times about an experimental and mostly, so far, untested theory of genetics. It posits that autism, schizophrenia, and most other psychiatric conditions are actually all the same disorder, just filtered through genes of different genders. I know this is strange and complicated, so I'll let Times write

GET INFORMED ABOUT AIDS - (USA)
AIDS is acquired immuno deficiency syndrome. It is a fatal disease caused by a rapidly mutate retrovirus which attacks the immune system and leaves the patient susceptible to infections, malignancies, and neurological disorders. It was first recognized as a disease in 1981. The virus was isolated in 1983 and was ultimately named the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). There are two forms of the HIV virus, HIV-1 and HIV-2. The majority of cases worldwide are caused by HIV-1. It is transmitted p
