Health Tips of the Week
- A full house isn't always a good thing, according to a new study by the University of Michigan Health System that links high hospital occupancy to higher death rates for patients.
- A new study suggests a trend toward developing hyperactivity among typically developing elementary-school-aged siblings of autistic preschoolers and supports the notion that mothers of young, autistic children experience more depression and stress than mothers with typically developing children.
- In a study found in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers from the University of California, San Diego and Harvard provide the first laboratory evidence that cooperative behavior is contagious and that it spreads from person to person to person. When people benefit from kindness they “pay it forward” by helping others who were not originally involved, and this creates a cascade of cooperation that influences dozens more in a social network.
- A troublingly high number of U.S. patients who are given angiograms to check for heart disease turn out not to have a significant problem, according to the latest study to suggest Americans get an excess of medical tests.
- A popular group of drugs prescribed to slow bone loss may be putting some patients at an increased risk of hip fractures if taken for more than five years. Two new studies show the bones of some post-menopausal women who take bisphosphonates (Actonel, Boniva, Fosamax) to ward off osteoporosis can stop rejuvenating and become brittle after long-term use. Researchers urge limiting the length of time people take the drugs.
- Children can have strokes, and the strokes can recur, usually within a month, according to pediatric researchers. Unfortunately, the strokes often go unrecognized the first time, and the child does not receive treatment before the recurrence.
- Study finds that taxing unhealthy foods leads to more reduced purchase of calories than subsidizing healthy foods.
- Teen pot and alcohol use is on the rise for the first time in a decade, a disturbing trend that could lead to long-term health risks.
- Not getting enough sleep does more damage than just leaving you with puffy eyes. It can cause fat to accumulate around your organs – more dangerous, researchers say, than those pesky love handles and jiggly thighs.
- Consumers found that satisfaction with “experiential purchases” – from massages to family vacations – starts high and increases over time. In contrast, spending money on material things feels good at first, but actually makes people less happy in the end, says Cornell University.
- The higher a patient’s body mass, the less respect doctors express for this patient.
- A lack of sex affects the heart for both men and women. If your libido is low, it can be a sign of cardiovascular disease.
