Something To Think About
============================

14 Million Americans Have Vision Problems and Don't Even Know It
 
According to a National Institutes of Health survey, 14 million Americans have some form of vision impairment. For more than 11 million, that vision impairment is uncorrected by glasses or contact lenses.

First Report in Three Decades; The National Institutes of Health arrived at those numbers based on reports of more than 13,500 patients who participated in visual acuity tests from 1999-2002. It was the first national survey measuring America's vision problems in at least three decades.

Expanded Vision Screenings; The study recommended that vision screening opportunities should be expanded, and suggested that efforts be made to increase public awareness of the importance of regular eye examinations.

Some Have More Eye Problems; The study also found that teenagers, diabetics, Hispanics, and the poor tend to have higher rates of vision impairment compared to the rest of the population.

LENA'S COMMENT: Don't wait until someone tells you your vision is bad, as they will sometime after the age of 30 or 35. Take charge and prevent it.


=======================
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!
=======================


When vitamin E is evaluated, the form of the vitamin is crucial. Too often we've seen vitamin E intervention studies (including some in the Hopkins research) that used a synthetic form or an inferior form of the vitamin. Dr. Allan Spreen says; "No one should be taking the synthetic form of the nutrient (dl-alpha tocopherol) - it should be d-alpha tocopherol at least. Even better is to take 'mixed' tocopherols (alpha, beta, delta, gamma). Also, vitamin E functions better when it's mixed with selenium."

Is that skin condition treatable?

One of the most diagnosed skin conditions is Psoriasis... Psoriasis is a serious skin condition that plagues nearly 7 million people in the United States.  The traditional medical community will tell you that it's caused by an overproduction of skin cells, results in thick patches of red skin covered in silvery-white scales that develop on the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back.  Whether that is true or not is up for debate... Something you will not hear from a dermatologist is; Putting a filter on the shower and bathing in filtered water, while balancing minerals seems to do away with a large portion of those suffering from psoriasis!

If you are bathing/showering in city water or chemically treated water your treatment may be as simple as putting a filter on your shower!

ADHD Drugs Send Thousands to ERs
May 24, 2006
By LINDA A. JOHNSON

Accidental overdoses and side effects from attention deficit drugs likely send thousands of children and adults to emergency rooms, according to the first national estimates of the problem.

Scientists at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated problems with the stimulant drugs drive nearly 3,100 people to ERs each year. Nearly two-thirds - overdoses and accidental use - could be prevented by parents locking the pills away, the researchers say.

Other patients had side effects, including potential cardiac problems such as chest pain, stroke, high blood pressure and fast heart rate.

Concerns over those effects have led some doctors to urge the Food and Drug Administration to require a "black box," its most serious warning, on package inserts for drugs such as Ritalin, Concerta and Adderall. Yet even doctors advising the FDA don't agree on whether that's warranted.

The issue was discussed in a series of letters in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine, including some from doctors worried about the dangers of not treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

"The numbers (of side effects) are puny compared to the numbers of stimulant prescriptions per year," said Dr. Tolga Taneli, a child and adolescent psychiatrist at University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in Newark. "I'm not alarmed."

An estimated 3.3 million Americans who are 19 or younger and nearly 1.5 million ages 20 and older are taking ADHD medicines. Ritalin is made by Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corp. of East Hanover, N.J.; Concerta by Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) of New Brunswick, N.J., and Adderall by Shire US Inc. of Newport, Ky.

Twenty-five deaths linked to ADHD drugs, 19 involving children, were reported to FDA from 1999 through 2003. Fifty-four other cases of serious heart problems, including heart attacks and strokes, were also reported. Some of the patients had prior heart problems.

Still, there hasn't been a clear estimate of the scope of side effects. The CDC report, while not a rigorous scientific study, attempts to provide that by using a new hospital surveillance network.

From August 2003 through December 2005, the researchers counted 188 ER visits for problems with the drugs at the 64 hospitals in the network, a representative sample of ERs monitored to spot drug side effects.

Doctors linked use of stimulant ADHD drugs to 73 patients with side effects or allergic reactions. Another 115 accidentally swallowed ADHD pills, including a month-old baby, or took too much.

"These are cases where a young child took someone else's medication or they took too much of their own," CDC epidemiologist Dr. Adam Cohen said of the second group.

Nearly 1 in 5 patients was admitted to the hospital, 1 in 5 needed stomach pumping or treatment with medicines, and 1 in 7 had cardiac symptoms. Sixteen percent of the side effects involved interaction with another drug.

Besides cardiac problems, common symptoms included abdominal pain, rashes and spasms, pain or weakness in muscles, according to Cohen. No patients died.

Extrapolating to all U.S. hospitals, the researchers estimated 3,075 ER visits occur each year.

In another letter in the journal, the heads of the American Psychiatric Association and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry wrote they are concerned a black box warning would discourage use of ADHD drugs, raising patients' risks of academic failure, substance abuse and other problems.

This past February, an FDA drug safety advisory panel voted 8-7 for a black box warning. The next month, another FDA panel instead recommended data on cardiac and other risks go in a new "highlights" section the agency plans to add to the top of drug inserts.

Dr. Marsha Rappley, pediatrics professor at Michigan State University, and two other doctors on the advisory panels believe the vote for a black box was premature.

She said studies show the drugs raise blood pressure and pulse rates a bit, but it's unknown whether that would harm children taking them for years, and that cardiac risks may be higher for adults.

Dr. Steven Nissen, cardiology chief at the Cleveland Clinic, who had pressed for a black box warning at the FDA panel meeting, said ADHD drugs are powerful stimulants and inherently risky. Nissen and other doctors say the drugs are being prescribed to some who don't need them.

This week, the FDA said it is "working diligently" on "labeling changes that we feel accurately reflect the available data and the advice of the committees." The agency declined interview requests.

Turning the Tide on an Eco-Catastrophe
By David Holley, LATimes Staff Writer


BIRLESTIK, Kazakhstan - In the dried-up harbor of this dusty village, camels roam next to forlorn ships seemingly washed up by tides of sand.

Near the rusting hulks, a camel herder dreams of what once was - and what might be.

They say that maybe there will be water here again," Dosym Kutmambetov, the 27-year-old grandson of a fisherman, said as he paused from rounding up his family's herd. "We're dreaming that the water will be here very soon. It makes my heart glad. If the sea is full, more people will come back to the village and life will be richer. If the sea comes back, I'll catch fish too."

The hope is not just wishful thinking.

Over the last half a century, the Aral Sea shrank to less than half its original size and turned salty as irrigation diversion slowly drained what was once one of the world's largest lakes. Like a gigantic amoeba, the landlocked sea divided in two in the late 1980s. The shrinkage not only wiped out a large fishing industry but blanketed the region with toxic saline dust blown up from the dry seabed.

Now, thanks to a new 8-mile-wide dam and other projects by the Kazakh government and the World Bank, the northern part of the Aral is filling again with fresh water. That in turn is restoring hope and a modest degree of prosperity to a region devastated by the double whammy of a disappearing sea and the Soviet collapse.

Fat carp flop wildly as fishermen pull nets tight around them, and salted fish hang to dry in the semidesert region's processing plants.

"I'm happy. The sea is coming near my village. I had a son born yesterday. And along with the sea, the fish come to the nets," Zhanarbek Kelmaganbetov, 30, said as he paused from hauling in 2-foot carp near the new dam.

The southern sea, which lies mostly in Uzbekistan, continues to shrink and is too salty to sustain even ocean fish. Instead of trying to reverse the environmental damage there, Uzbekistan's government is seeking to find and develop gas and oil deposits in the dry seabed.

The dam that is restoring life to the northern sea, which lies entirely within Kazakhstan, has raised the water level there to 138 feet above sea level. That compares with an elevation of 126 feet last summer, before the dam was finished.

Residents take great pride in the reversal of what has long been considered one of the world's greatest man-made environmental disasters. Such a dramatic ecological success is particularly rare in the former states of the Soviet Union, which have not had the resources to clean up mistakes made under communist rule.

"There are seven wonders of the world, and the eighth is the dam on the Aral Sea," said Kolbai Danabayev, vice mayor of Aral city, a former fishing harbor known in Soviet times by its Russian name, Aralsk, and located about 30 miles northeast of the dried-up Birlestik harbor. "No one has done something like this before."

Many fishermen and local officials want to see the dam raised enough to restore the entire northern Aral to an elevation of 174 feet, the sea's level before the shrinkage began. Experts say that would be too expensive, but that raising the water to 151 feet would be enough to bring key harbors back to life.

The initial push to revive the northern sea came from the local populace and regional government, with special contributions and taxes used to construct temporary experimental dikes out of sand. The first, built in 1992, was washed out the next year, but it proved that a dike could raise the sea level and the water's quality.

A bigger dike was built a decade ago, and it helped launch a modest revival of the fishing industry. But that dike, located where the new dam is today, failed during a 1999 storm.

Murat Abenov, 59, who witnessed the decline and fall of the region's fisheries, today spends his time fishing near the dam, 70 miles southwest of Aral city. Life for fishermen is already richer now than it was in the Soviet era, he says.

"At that time we had a big sea, and we caught fish with big boats," he said. "But in those days you caught the fish and turned them over to the fish-processing plant. Now you catch fish and sell them yourself as your business. That's why life is much better now."

For the fishermen who pulled in 50,000 tons a year half a century ago, the Aral Sea's death came stealthily. The shrinkage and growing salinity - which killed all native freshwater fish by the late 1970s - was little understood at first.

The sea's tragedy began around 1960, when Soviet planners sharply increased the use of irrigation water from the Aral's two tributaries, the Syr Darya and Amu Darya, to boost cotton production in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, then part of the Soviet Union. By 1966, the fishermen realized their sea was shrinking. A few years later, the fish began to die.

Many fishermen thought the sea was shrinking from natural causes, and at first they suspected the fish were dying because of some accident on Vozrozhdeniye Island, used
for decades during the Soviet era as a biological weapons testing ground.
