Recurrent stroke in childhood cancer survivors
Conclusion:
Survivors of childhood cancer, particularly those previously treated with high-dose cranial radiation, have a high risk of recurrent stroke for decades after a first stroke. Although these strokes are mostly occurring in young adulthood, hypertension, an established atherosclerotic risk factor, independently predicts recurrent stroke in this population.

Measuring mortality and the burden of adult disease associated with adverse childhood experiences in England: a national survey
Conclusions
Radically different life-course trajectories are associated with exposure to increased ACEs. Interventions to prevent ACEs are available but rarely implemented at scale. Treating the resulting health costs across the life course is unsustainable.

Cohort profile: systemic lupus erythematosus in Sweden: the Swedish Lupus Linkage (SLINK) cohort
Purpose
A cohort of individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was identified through linkage of several national registers to investigate important epidemiological questions using not only population-based data to minimise selection bias, but also to identify matched comparators from the general population to serve as controls. This cohort was established to overcome the general dearth of data in SLE epidemiology.
Participants
All individuals registered in Sweden with a personal identity number and who have obtained medical care at any hospital or public non-primary outpatient specialist care with suspected SLE ...

The Southern Diet: Dead on Arrival
We probably could have predicted the outcomes of a recent and well done study. Does a typical Southern diet, rich in fried foods, fatty foods, eggs, processed meats like bacon and ham, organ meats, and sugar rich drinks, promote heart disease? Some clues were available. The yearly map of rates of obesity by state in the U.S. show the Southeast to have the greatest problem with weight. Paula Dean and her cooking led to her declaration that she had diabetes and changes in her recipes. Now researchers from the National Institutes of Health have put the "sugar coating" on the topic by providing strong data condemning this patt...

Socioeconomic factors relating to diabetes and its management in India
Abstract
Diabetes is an escalating problem in India and has major socioeconomic dimensions. Rapid dietary changes coupled with decreased levels of physical activity have resulted in increases in obesity and diabetes in rural and semi‐urban areas, as well as in urban‐based people living in resettlement colonies. Increasing risk has also been recorded in those who suffered from poor childhood nutrition and in rural‐to‐urban migrants. Social inequity manifests in disparities in socioeconomic status (SES), place of residence, education, gender, and level of awareness and affects prevention, care, and management. All th...

Health Lunacy and Rocket Science
The failure to use what we have known for more than two decades to prevent up to 80 percent of all major chronic disease -- heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, dementia -- is costing virtually every one of us years lost from lives we love, and life lost from years. Since this is all entirely fixable with knowledge long at our disposal, the calamity of it all is, in a word, lunacy.
Of course, in the vernacular, that just means crazy. But the origins of the word point to the moon. And reflections on the moon, as it turns out, could prove... illuminating.
There are footprints on the moon for three basic reasons. First,...

The Quality Of Health Care You Receive Likely Depends On Your Skin Color
Unequal health care continues to be a serious problem for black Americans. More than a decade after the Institute of Medicine issued a landmark report showing that minority patients were less likely to receive the same quality health care as white patients, racial and ethnic disparities continue to plague the U.S. health care system. That report, which was published in 2002, indicated that even when both groups had similar insurance or the same ability to pay for care, black patients received inferior treatment to white patients. This still hold true, according to our investigation into dozens of studies about black health...

Diabetes is an escalating problem in India and has major socio‐economic dimensions. Rapid dietary changes coupled with decreased level of physical activity have resulted in increasing obesity and diabetes in rural and semi‐urban areas and in urban based people living in resettlement colonies. Increasing risk has also been recorded in those who suffered from poor childhood nutrition, and in rural‐to‐urban migrants. Social inequity manifests in disparities in socio‐economic strata (SES), place of residence, education, gender, level of awareness and affect prevention, care and management. All these populati...
