Something To Think About

SAD Dangerous to your health?

Researchers at the University of Alaska studied the frequency of medication errors in Alaskan hospitals, finding that the majority of them occur during the darkest part of the year. As reported in the Psychiatry Research, the chances of a medication error in an Alaskan hospital were twice as great in December as in September, and 58 percent of the errors are made during the first three months of each year.

Apparently light deprivation and seasonal affective disorder (SAD) not only alter mood, they affect work performance, too.

Surgically Induced Alzheimer's?

Could it all start with an anesthetic? Common anesthetics used routinely in surgery may be a cause of Alzheimer's disease, scientists suspect. They also think that the drugs may accelerate the start of the disease.

It's common for patients to suffer cognitive problems when they come round after surgery, but doctors assumed that the patient quickly recovered, and suffered no long-term ill effects.

But scientists now reckon that the anesthetics - and especially isoflurane and halothane, which are both inhaled - are doing far more harm than was suspected, and may be causing the onset of Alzheimer's.

So far their suspicions have been tested only in animal studies; mice that were exposed to isoflurane suffered significant cognitive decline.

And the problems may not be associated just with isoflurane and halothane. Other anaesthetics, such as desflurane and sevoflurane, have similar cell structures, and so may be causing just as much damage.

One researcher urged patients and doctors not to panic, although he admitted that the early results were ?alarming?.

(Source: Journal of the American Medical Association, 2007; 297: 1760).

LENA'S COMMENT: Following surgery I use to heard patient's remark over and over - "I think my brain has gone to sleep and never woke up!" - in those years of working in doctor's offices. Patients questioned their sanity after having surgery or dental anesthesia... So this really isn't news to me or to those medical care people, if they would only pay attention... If you are having surgery think a few times before doing it and look for alternatives, as there are other options for most any tumor, disease or illness. Albeit slower resolving than surgery but much safer for your brain and body... If you choose to have surgery prepare your body for at least two weeks before undergoing anesthesia to prevent brain fade. Those preparations should include; Daily supplementing to balancing your minerals ; Building a when the time comes Strong Intestinal Flora to remove drugs and anesthsia ; and a Brain Building supplement to assure a strong brain to give you a maximum chance of overcoming the damage and MegaNutrient Vitamins to strengthen the whole body!

Weight Loss Surgery Linked to Neurological Problems
By Vivian Richardson, Ivanhoe Health Correspondent

ORLANDO, Fla. (Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Weight loss surgery can mean a new lease on life for the morbidly obese. However, new research reveals these patients may be at risk for developing disabling neurological conditions.

Researchers from the University of Arkansas for Medical Science in Little Rock report 26 out of 150 patients studied had neurological problems that could be linked to gastric bypass surgery.

Researcher Katalin Juhasz Pocsine, M.D., became interested in the area of study after treating a gastric bypass patient who was experiencing severe neurological problems eight years after her surgery. Complaining at first of tingling feet, the patient quickly became so weak she could barely get out of bed, Dr. Pocsine told Ivanhoe.

"We couldn't find anything abnormal other than nutritional deficiencies," said Dr. Pocsine. It wasn't until surgeons partially reversed the bypass surgery that the patient began to improve.

"I think it could to happen to anyone," Dr. Pocsine said, although she said patients who lose weight rapidly or who do not or cannot follow the nutritional guidelines of their physicians seem to be at higher risk. She theorized it is the vitamin and mineral deficiencies caused by the reduced ability to absorb food that is behind this condition.

Dr. Pocsine said as gastric bypass patients continue to age, we may see more problems caused by reduced ability to absorb nutrients and medication.

"I would not say that surgeons should stop operating on patients because most of patients do not have problems, and morbid obesity itself is life threatening," said Dr. Pocsine. She recommends patients considering gastric bypass learn about this potential side effect and about how to prevent it.

Vanishing Himalayan Glaciers Threaten a Billion
June 5, 2007

KATHMANDU - Himalayan glaciers could disappear within 50 years because of climate change, having far-reaching implications for more than a billion people living in the region, experts said on Monday.

The earth's temperature has increased by an average of 0.74 degrees Celsius over the past 100 years, according to a document circulated at a conference on climate change by the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) in Kathmandu.

It said global warming had pushed up the temperature of the Himalayas by up to 0.6 degrees Celsius in the past 30 years.

"It is extremely serious," said Surendra Shrestha, regional director at the United Nations Environment Programme for Asia and the Pacific. "It is going to change fundamentally the way we live."

"If the temperature continues to rise as it is, there will be no snow and ice in the Himalayas in 50 years."

Thousands of glaciers in the Himalayas are the source of water for nine major Asian rivers whose basins are home to 1.3 billion people from Pakistan to Myanmar, including parts of India and China, conference delegates said.

Andreas Schild, ICIMOD's director general, said the disappearance of glaciers meant a reduction in the mountains' natural water storage capacity.

"It means that the flow of water will be more erratic," he said.

Melting glaciers will have an adverse impact on biodiversity, hydropower, industries and agriculture and make the region dangerous to live in.

The melting also causes lakes to form at the base of glaciers, lakes which can subsequently burst their banks as temperatures continue to rise. This can have devastating effects downstream, delegates said.

"If there is a small earthquake all that water is going to come down," Shrestha told reporters in the sidelines of the conference. "Because of the altitude it will pick up debris and speed... it is like a big bulldozer that wipes everything out."

"It is a silent tsunami," he added.

Officials estimate that there are more than 3,200 glaciers in Nepal -- 14 of which have lakes which are at risk of bursting.

According to Om Bajracharya, a senior Nepali government hydrologist, the Khumbhu glacier in the Everest region frequented by thousands of climbers and trekkers every year, receded by 30 metres between 1978 and 1995.
