The Fattening of America: How the Economy Makes Us Fat, If It Matters, and What to Do About It, blends theory, research, and engaging personal anecdotes to address the causes and consequences of America's obesity epidemic. The authors use humor and contemporary examples including the Biggest Loser, Jared, prisoners in Guantanamo Bay, and many others to explain how economic considerations drive our behavior to make us eat more and exercise less. In doing so, the book provides an understanding of why combating obesity is such a challenge. "There are simply many more incentives to gain weight than to lose it," Finkelstein said. "We are, in fact, victims of our success as a nation. Unfortunately, the prize is diabetes, stroke and an increased likelihood of disabilities." |

384. Has your hearing deteriorated? http://www.hvpress.net/news/123/ARTICLE/3109/2007-12-26.html 2007-12-26 12:02:41 Description: -related hearing loss is known as presbycusis. People with this kind of hearing loss may have a hard time hearing what others are saying or may be unable to tolerate loud sounds. The loss of hearing is slow and gradual and, just as hair turns gray at different rates, hearing loss develops at different rates and varies from person to person, and even from ear to ear. In addition to aging, hearing loss can be caused by earwax buildup, loud noises, hereditary factors, head injury, infections, illness, certain pre scri ption drugs, circulation problems, heart conditions or stroke and tumors. |

385. US specialists staying out of the ER http://www.upi.com/NewsTrack/Health/2007/12/21/us_specialists_staying_out_of_the_er/2644/ 2007-12-21 18:01:12 Description: U.S. specialists staying out of the ER Published: Dec. 21, 2007 at 5:51 PM Print story Email to a friend Font size:WASHINGTON, Dec. 21 (UPI) -- U.S. hospitals are having a hard time finding doctors willing to serve as on-call specialists in their emergency rooms, The Washington Post reports. A 2005 survey by the American College of Emergency Physicians found that 73 percent of 1,328 hospital emergency department directors said they were having difficulties finding specialists willing to put in 24-hour shifts on call. That was up from 67 percent a year earlier. For stroke and heart-attack victims and in many other emergency situations, seeing a specialist promptly can be a life-and-death matter. Experts say that the problem is not a shortage of specialists but of specialists rejecting emergency duty. They fear malpractice suits if something goes wrong or not getting paid for treating the uninsured. |

386. Cardiovascular disease remains top cause of deaths in the US http://www.dailyindia.com/show/201707.php/Cardiovascular-disease-remains-top-cause-of-deaths-in-the- US 2007-12-21 09:05:20 Description: Cardiovascular disease remains top cause of deaths in the US From our ANI Correspondent Washington, Dec 21(ANI): Latest data from the American Heart Association's Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics shows that though death rates due to cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are declining, it is still the biggest cause of deaths in the US.

387. MOVIE REVIEW: `The Diving Bell and the Butterfly' http://www.charlotte.com/200/story/413889.html 2007-12-20 12:04:11 Description: MOVIE REVIEW: `The Diving Bell and the Butterfly' By MARY F. POLS Contra Costa Times Related Content http://www.contracostatimes.com There's a moment early in "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" where the picture suddenly goes blurry. We've been watching the action from the viewpoint of a Frenchman named Jean-Dominique Bauby, a recent stroke victim who is completely paralyzed. Our first assumption, natural enough, is that he is falling asleep or passing out. Then there's a series of rapid blinks and the awful realization that he's crying. To feel literally inside another person's tears is hardly an everyday occurrence, but then, director Julian Schnabel's adaptation of Bauby's bestselling memoir is a special film. It rivals the Bob Dylan biopic "I'm Not There" for the title of Most Creatively Constructed Cinema of 2007, but unlike that Bob Dylan film, it's complete: fully, beautifully there. Jean-Do (Mathieu Amalric in a lovely performance), as his friends called him, was 43 when he was left with "locked-in syndrome," unable to communicate except by blinking his left eye. He was the successful editor of French Elle, a hip father of three with at least one mistress (how French), and a sense of humor that survived the stroke. When a former colleague visits him at his seaside rehab facility and says everyone in Paris is gossiping that "Jean-Do is a vegetable," Jean-Do wonders - aloud to us - "What? A carrot? A pickle?" Against all odds, he dictates an account of his post-stroke life using a code entailing the alphabet and a series of eye blinks |

388. FASgen Announces New Discovery for Treatment of Stroke http://www.pharmalive.com/News/index.cfm?articleid=501822&categoryid=40 2007-12-20 09:05:44 Description: FASgen Announces New Discovery for Treatment of Stroke BALTIMORE, December 20, 2007 /PRNewswire/ -- FASgen is pleased to announce the recent publication of important results from research into a potential treatment for stroke using one of FASgen's proprietary compounds, C75. The Company is a leader in the research in the field of FASi (fatty acid synthase inhibition). One area of that research has been for the treatment of metabolic disease disorders, including obesity. As the regulation of appetite is centered in the hypothalamus in the brain, research was undertaken to evaluate the safety of the Company's compounds in the brain. An unexpected and significant discovery resulted when the studies demonstrated not only that the compounds were non-toxic in the brain, but also they had the positive effect of providing significant neuroprotection in the case of ischemic stroke. In the stroke models tested, the Company's compound C-75 reduced AMPK levels and resulted in neuroprotection by reduced stroke damage, even when administered poststroke. These remarkable findings were recently published in the article, "Neuroprotective Effects of Adenosine Monophosphate-Activated Protein Kinase Inhibition and Gene Deletion in Stroke," McCullough et al, Stroke 2007, 38; 2992-2999 (December 11, 2007). |
