The 10 'Best Buys' to combat heart disease, diabetes and stroke in Africa :: The Economist has branded Africa as ‘the world's fastest growing continent’.1 The economy in many African countries is growing at a rate that is higher than that of European countries. HIV infection is coming under control and life expectancy is increasing as a result of widespread use of antiretroviral therapy.2 The rising economic prosperity and improving health status has been associated with what can be described as a renaissance in cardiovascular medicine that is characterised by the revival of pan-African professional organisations, such as the Pan African Society of Cardiology (PASCAR) and the creation of the Cardiovascular Journal of Africa as its mouthpiece.3 Over the past decade, a number of African-led multinational research networks have been established to combat h...

Charles Krauthammer's global warming folly | Dana Nuccitelli :: Krauthammer gets climate science and policy wrong in calling President Obama a "flat-earther"Fox News commentator Charles Krauthammer recently wrote an opinion piece that was published by many media outlets including The Washington Post, claiming that President Obama's Climate Action Plan is a "folly." In fact, the real follies lie in Krauthammer's arguments.Krauthammer's article begins in a schizophrenic manner, claiming that "Global temperatures have been flat for 16 years — a curious time to unveil" a climate action plan, but then admitting that this "doesn't mean there is no global warming." Indeed it does not. In fact, over the past 16 years, the planet has accumulated an amount of heat equivalent to about 2 billion Hiroshima atomic bomb detonations. Krauthammer objects to the Presi...

With food safety bill, U.S. government will spend nearly $1 million per person to prevent food-borne illness deaths :: (NaturalNews) The recently-passed Food Safety Modernization Act, which was passed in order to prevent food-borne illness deaths in the USA, will cost $1.4 billion over the first five years. But nobody thinks about the economics of the issue. How many people are we going to save by spending this $1.4 billion, even assuming it works?To answer that question, let's look at the food illness fatality figures offered by the CDC:• Out of the 5,000 food-borne illness deaths each year in the United States, only 1,809 are "attributable to foodborne transmission" according to the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/EID/vol5no5/mead.htm#Table%203).• E.coli, which is often quoted in the big scare stories about food safety, only kills 78 people a year through food-borne transmission (52 plus 26, fro...

Effect of Long-Term Oral Contraceptive Use on Determinants of Endurance Performance :: We examined the effect of long-term oral contraceptive (OC) use on endurance performance in recreationally active women. Eight women using OC (OC group) and 8 women who were nonusers (CON group) performed a test to determine the peak oxygen uptake for cycling (V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak) and to estimate the anaerobic threshold (AT). Subjects also completed a continuous submaximal cycling test across 3 work stages (two 6-minute work stages below AT, and 1 above AT performed to exhaustion). Pulmonary gas exchange, heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), blood lactate concentration ([La−1]), and ratings of perceived exertion were measured throughout, and cycling economy was calculated. Physical characteristics were comparable between the groups (p > 0.05). Peak oxygen uptake (CON group: 2.5...
