422. Jane Seymour joined 'Dancing with the Stars' for ill mum's sake http://story.malaysiasun.com/index.php/ct/9/cid/f825b92e19df636a/id/285298/cs/1/ 2007-09-25 09:06:48 Description: Jane Seymour joined 'Dancing with the Stars' for ill mum's sake Malaysia Sun Tuesday 25th September, 2007 (ANI) Washington, Sept 25 : Veteran actress Jane Seymour has revealed that she agreed to participate in U.S. reality TV show 'Dancing with the Stars' to please her ailing mum. The British beauty, whose mother suffered a stroke, revealed that her mother, left incapacitated by a stroke, had uttered her first words when the actress told her about her participation plans. "I was really, really sad, because my mom had a stroke, and she's in a nursing home, and she can't talk anymore and she can't move," Contactmusic quoted Seymour, as saying. "I'd been asked to do Dancing With The Stars and I mentioned it to her over the phone... and my mother started trying to talk. She went, 'Wuhwuhwuh,' she got so excited. |

423. Aspirin Just Gets Better With Age http://www.healthnewsdigest.com/news/Medicine_280/Aspirin_Just_Gets_Better_With_Age.shtml 2007-09-22 09:05:15 Description: Aspirin Just Gets Better With Age (HealthNewsDigest.com)-In many ways aspirin just keeps getting better with age-partly because science keeps discovering ways aspirin can help you live a longer and healthier life. Aspirin has long been considered a lifesaver, yet research keeps delivering good news about its medicinal value. The lifesaving drug may be best known for its ability to keep hearts healthy. Aspirin is used to reduce the risk of heart attack in people with clogged coronary arteries and in those who've already had an attack. It may also reduce the risk of heart disease in individuals with diabetes. The National Heart Foundation reports that patients who took low-dose aspirin had not only a 26 percent reduction in the risk of a nonfatal heart attack, but also a 25 percent reduction in the risk of a stroke and a 13 percent reduction in risk of death compared to similar patients who didn't take aspirin. A daily low-dose aspirin therapy is commonly prescribed to adults to prevent heart attack and stroke and help improve blood flow to the heart. |

424. Senior Couple Robbed Of Their Medical Marijuana http://cbs2.com/watercooler/watercooler_story_264173055.html 2007-09-21 18:03:39 Description: Senior Couple Robbed Of Their Medical Marijuana (CBS) SACRAMENTO, Calif. Ernie Vesie says he needs his weed. He and his wife Roni have a legal prescription to use the medicinal marijuana. Ernie suffered a painful stroke, and Roni is recovering from major stomach surgery. The two say it eases their pain. The Vesies grow the marijuana in their south Sacramento, Calif. backyard. During happier times, a bumper crop blossomed and it was something Ernie's became proud of. But, after three armed suspects forced their way into their home, the plants are now gone. |

425. Promising new source of stem cells http://www.huliq.com/34951/promising-new-source-of-stem-cells 2007-09-19 15:05:53 Description: Promising new source of stem cells After a decade of research, Howard Hughes Medical Institute scientists have succeeded in reprogramming adult stem cells from the testes of male mice into functional blood vessels and contractile cardiac tissue. The research offers a promising new source of stem cells for use in organ regeneration studies. Some scientists think that organ-specific adult stem cells may offer the same therapeutic potential as embryonic stem cells, without the ethical concerns or the risk of immune rejection that are associated with embryonic stem cell therapies. However, adult stem cells may lack the plasticity and pluripotency of embryonic stem cells’ capacity to generate any cell type. The study of adult stem cells has also been limited by their relative scarcity in various organs and the attendant difficulties in identifying and harvesting them, as well as differentiating them in large quantities into functional vascularized tissues. HHMI investigator Shahin Rafii and his colleagues at Weill Cornell Medical College appear to have solved some of these problems in male mice. Using spermatogonial progenitor cells obtained from the mouse’s testes, the researchers reprogrammed the cells to form multipotent adult spermatogonial-derived stem cells. If the same can be done with human cells, they say, adult stem cells may be a promising source of new therapies for men, for diseases such as vascular diseases, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, stroke, diabetes, and even cancer. |

426. Stroke victims call family before medics http://news.brisbanetimes.com.au/stroke-victims-call-family-before-medics/20071416-z7c.html 2007-09-15 18:03:00 Description: More than half of stroke victims will call a relative or friend before an ambulance, new research shows. The National Stroke Research Institute observed 198 stroke patients who had called an ambulance over a six-month period. The study found that more than 51 per cent of people who had a stroke called a relative or friend before calling an ambulance. The symptoms of a stroke, Australia's second biggest killer, can be subtle and victims felt the need to confirm their case with someone else before dialling triple zero, the study found. Delaying medical attention took up valuable time that could improve treatment and recovery from a stroke, the researchers said. "We say that time lost is brain lost," National Stroke Foundation chief executive Dr Erin Lalor said. |

427. Self Check-In Kiosks Catching on in the ER http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,296721,00.html 2007-09-13 15:03:47 Description: SELF CHECK-IN KIOSKS CATCHING ON IN THE ER DALLAS — An emergency room might be the last place you'd think would have do-it-yourself check-in. But Parkland Memorial Hospital has three self-service computer kiosks, similar to those used by airport passengers and hotel guests. And so do a handful of other hospital ERs, where the long wait in line to register and explain symptoms can be grueling. True emergency cases — gunshot or car crash victims with serious injuries — are still rushed in for treatment. But patients like Rickey Washington, a diabetic concerned about numbness in his hands and feet, find it fairly simple to sign in by computer. Once the patient's problem is entered into the system, it pops up on a screen accessible to the nurses. Those with chest pains, stroke symptoms or other worrisome complaints take priority. |

428. WEDNESDAY: US deaths rise by 50000 in 2005, a disappointing ... http://www.niagara-gazette.com/nationalstate/gnnnationalstate_story_255144122.html?keyword=topstory 2007-09-12 15:03:48 Description: U.S. deaths rise by 50,000 in 2005, a disappointing reversal; cancer deaths also up (2:40 p.m.) Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) - The number of deaths in the United States rose in 2005 after a sharp decline the year earlier, a disappointing reversal that suggests the 2004 numbers were a fluke. Cancer deaths were also up. Heart disease and stroke, the No. 1 and No. 3 killers, killed fewer people in 2005 than 2004. But the No. 2 cause of death, cancer, rose to about 559,000 from 554,000, according to the report. |

429. macon.com MIDDAY UPDATE: Life expectancy of Americans hits record ... http://www.macon.com/149/story/134951.html 2007-09-12 12:04:47 Description: Life expectancy of Americans hits record; quake strikes Indonesia, triggers tsunami; tropical storm warning issued for part of Gulf Coast The life expectancy for Americans is nearly 78 years, the longest in U.S. history, according to new government figures from 2005 released today. That age, based on the latest data available, was still lower than the life span in more than three dozen other countries, however. U.S. life expectancy at birth inched up to 77.9 from the previous record, 77.8, recorded for 2004. The increase was more dramatic in contrast with 1995, when life expectancy was 75.8, and 1955, when it was 69.6. The improvement was led by a drop in deaths from heart disease and stroke - two of the nation's leading killers, according to the National Center for Health Statistics, which released the new life expectancy report today. |

430. Area Of The Brain That Processes Visual Inputs Can Reorganize ... http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/81549.php 2007-09-08 12:03:41 Description: New evidence from a patient shows that the area of the brain that processes visual inputs can reorganize after an injury caused by stroke. Scientists found that a brain region that had stopped receiving signals from the eyes because of a stroke began responding to signals formerly processed in adjacent brain areas. |
