AI Allows Computers to " Read " EHR Records and Make Predictions
I have blogged previously about utilizing machine learning software andnatural language processing (NLP) to extract meaning from EHR records (see, for example:What Is the Significance of the Roche Acquisition of Flatiron?). This approach to healthcare research is starting to bear fruit (see:Machines Learn To Read Hospital Records, Will Doctor's Handwriting Be Next?). Below is an excerpt from a recent article describing artificial intelligence (AI) and EHR records:Patient records are unruly; they consist of numbers, images, and text....As a result of the jumble of data types and formats, data mining to identify pr...

6 self-care steps for a pandemic — always important, now essential
Airline attendants say it well: if the plane hits turbulence and the oxygen masks come down, place a mask on yourself first before turning to help others. This is absolutely critical. If we don’t, we may not be able to help anyone.
Well, we’ve all hit the same turbulence, folks, and we all need to take good care of ourselves, our bodies, and our minds.
Healthcare providers on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic absolutely have to be functioning well in order to do their jobs well. At such a stressful time, with so much change and uncertainty, combined with the pressures of patient care during this pandemic, it ...

Sea salts flavored with mediterranean herbs and fruits prevent cholesterol and phospholipid membrane oxidation and cell free radical generation
Abstract
We evaluated and compared, with respect to normal salt, the antioxidant activity of commercial sea salts flavored with Mediterranean herbs and fruits in chemical models of lipid peroxidation and in cell cultures. Salts flavored with myrtle, rosemary, and a mixture of herbs/plants preserved liposomes from Cu2+‐induced oxidation. Methanol extracts obtained from all flavored sea salts significantly reduced the reactive oxygen species generation in Caco‐2 cells, while extracts obtained from myrtle, rosemary and mixed herbs/plants salts prevented cholesterol oxidative degradation (140 °C). 1H NMR spectroscopy led ...

The Guardian view on Black Sea shipwrecks: discovering our past | Editorial
Three years of research have produced astonishing results, including the remains of 65 vessels, one thought to be ancient Greek. This should be only the startThe seabed produces archaeological wonders. TheMary Rose, which sank in the Solent in 1545, and theVasa, which capsized in 1633 in the harbour of Stockholm, are just two of the famous ships that have been lifted from the deep. There is a long history of fishermen finding classical bronzes in the Mediterranean: the great statue of Zeus (or Poseidon) in the Athens Archaeological Museum was chanced upon in 1928 off Cape Artemision. Still entrancing and puzzling researche...

Fiber-full eating for better health and lower cholesterol
The American Heart Association and the FDA recommend that we all eat at least 25 grams of dietary fiber per day. But what is it, how do we know how much we’re eating, and where did that number come from, anyway?
What are the types of fiber?
Dietary fiber is a good carbohydrate, also known as roughage, found in plant foods (not supplements). There are two kinds, soluble or insoluble, and both are really good for us. Soluble fiber becomes a thick gel in our intestines, which slows digestion (which keeps blood sugars from spiking) and traps fats so they can’t all be absorbed (which lowers cholesterol levels). Sources of s...

Everyone has a role to play: Reducing your child ’s risk of developing food allergies
By RUCHI GUPTA, MD, MPH
The average American elementary school class includes two students living with one or multiple food allergies. That’s nearly six million children in the United States alone. And these numbers are climbing. There was a staggering 377 percent increase in medical claims with diagnoses of anaphylactic food reactions between 2007 and 2016, two-thirds of these were children.
As parents, we want the absolute best for our children. For many years, guidance around food introduction was unclear. Parents were told that babies, and especially those considered at risk for food allergies, should avoid...

Ingenuity in packaging maintains the quality of fresh fruits and vegetables in mixed cargo exported by sea
The additional packaging was found to be highly effective, especially for leafy vegetables, which is related to the prevention of water loss that is a particular advantage for transport by marine containers in which humidity is difficult to control. We recommend the use of additional packaging when exporting fruits and vegetables by sea, as a very low-risk and low-cost solution. AbstractGlobal agricultural exports are expected to increase in the future. Sea transportation facilitates the carrying of an incomparably large amount of cargo for a much lower cost than by air freight. However, sea transportation takes much longe...

A Fatty Acid Fraction Purified From Sea Buckthorn Seed Oil Has Regenerative Properties on Normal Skin Cells
In recent years, natural product's research gained momentum, fueled by technological advancement and open availability of research data. To date, sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L. [Elaeagnaceae]) plant parts, especially berries, are well characterized and repeatedly tested for antioxidant activity and regenerative properties, in various cell types and tissues. However, fatty acids (FA) have been less investigated in term of biological effects, although, they are important bioactive components of the sea buckthorn fruit and oil. The aim of our work was to determine whether sea buckthorn seed oil is a suitable source of...

Development of a food preservative from sea buckthorn together with chitosan: Application in and characterization of fresh-cut lettuce storage
The purpose was to create a novel composite food preservative for fresh-cut lettuce using flavonoids and chitosan from sea buckthorn leaves (SBL). Sea buckthorn leaves were extracted with ethanol as the extraction solvent and ultrasonic-assisted extraction to obtain flavonoid from sea buckthorn leaf crude (FSL), and then the FSL was secondarily purified with AB-8 resin and polyamide resin to obtain flavonoid from sea buckthorn leaf purified (FSL-1). Different concentrations of FSL-1 and chitosan were made into a composite preservative (FCCP) by magnetic stirring and other methods, containing 1% chitosan preservative (CP) a...

What is the Dosing of CBD Oil?
Discussion
Cannabis sativa makes small fruits which are usually named “seeds” although they are not technically a seed. Hemp oil is derived from the hemp seeds by cold-pressing or other means of macerating or squashing the seeds. Cold pressed oil is high in polyunsaturated fatty acids including various omega-3 and linolenic acids and antioxidants. It is used by some people for its nutritional value and “[a]ccording to an old legend, Buddha (Prince Siddharta Gautama) founder of Buddism, was able to survive eating only one hemp seed each day for six years.” The seeds themselves do not contain any psyc...

The Important Role of Faith-based Organizations in the Context of COVID-19

By KATHRYN P. DEROSE and REV. MICHAEL A. MATA
As Christians experienced Holy Week 2020, the week commemorating the trial, suffering, and death of Jesus, the somber tone such remembrances evoke took on new meaning in the midst of the COVID-19 epidemic with the catastrophic loss of life and livelihoods. Many churches remained physically closed, some already outfitted with sophisticated systems for live streaming and others scrambled, along with their congregants, to create meaningful virtual worship and fellowship opportunities. Finding ways to maintain physical distancing while still pro...

What Is In A Ketogenic Diet?
Discussion
Epilepsy is a common problem for the general pediatrician. Its incidence is estimated at 41-87/100,000 children. While many children are controlled with medication, it is also estimated that up to 1/3 will develop drug-resistant epilepsy. Some children may have an identifiable seizure focus that may be amenable to surgery, but many others do not. One option for potential control is a ketogenic diet (KD).
Indications for KD usually are for drug-resistant epilepsy including partial and complex seizure patterns as well as some metabolic disorders such as glucose transport 1 deficiency syndrome. It has also found ...
