Five Ways To Stop Shiny Object Syndrome
Long before“Shiny Object Syndrome” was coined as a term, an insignificant blogger from Utah referred to a similar condition and called it Multi-Irons Syndrome. Are they the same thing?Shiny Object Syndrome — The Fancy Term for Something You’ve Been Doing All Your LifeThere is often a difference between what an expression means when it is coined and how people end up using it. People often don’t see eye to eye on these things. One group will insist on the academic or dictionary usage of a term or word, while the popular usage tromples all over them. Irregardless, we don’t have a lot of contro...

As doctors, caring is our poetry
Poiesis is a Greek term that evolved into the word poetry in English. According to Wikipedia, in philosophy, poiesis is “the activity in which a person brings something into being which did not exist before. Etymologically derived from the ancient Greek term which means to make.” The word is used as a suffix, as in

Federal Records Declassification Follies: Biden Administration Edition
Patrick G. EddingtonYesterday, POLITICO ’s Brian Benderreported on a new Biden administration effort to “pierce the veil” of excessive federal government secrecy. The mechanism: a new National Security Council ‐led initiative to reform America’s insanely broad and totally dysfunctional system of classifying and declassifying U.S. government records.The “both sides” tone of much of Bender’s piece–that declassification advocates have points in their favor, but government bureaucrats have legitimate concerns too–is emblematic of the kind of lazy reporting on this issue that makes it seem like ...

Lifestyle Medicine Could Be The Key To Digital Health Adoption
I’ve been wearing several generations and types of smartwatches for a couple of years and I only remove my watch when I shower. I use it to track my sleep and its smart alarm wakes me up at the optimal time every morning. With the pocketable Kardia, I regularly check my ECG at home to detect any anomalies. For an in-depth analysis of what my genetic makeup predisposes me to, I had my whole genome sequenced. And I bring relevant data to my general practitioner during my checkups so that we can decide on preventive measures. In short, I’m trying to live like the patient of the future, using lifestyle medicine to prev...

Joan Hendrik Smidt van Gelder
My eye was caught bya recent Guardian article on how Charlotte Bischoff van Heemskerk, 101, has been reunited with a painting looted by the Nazis from her father ' s house in Arnhem 80 years ago.Her father was an art collector, and there were other works looted (seethis Guardian article,this from Looted Art,this from the Commission for Looted Art in Europe, andthis from the Art Newspaper). The work described in those pieces had found its way to the Mansion House in London.My health librarian eye was further caught by mention of her father, Joan Hendrik Smidt van Gelder, a paediatrician at the city ' s children '...

Sirtuins and Mitophagy in Aging
A number of approaches that improve mitochondrial function to produce benefits in aging mice, while comparing poorly with exercise as an intervention in humans, appear to work by improving mitophagy. That includes mitochondrially targeted antioxidants such as mitoQ, approaches to NAD+ upregulation such as nicotinamide riboside, and so forth. Mitophagy is the quality control process that identifies worn and damaged mitochondria, and moves them to a lysosome for recycling. Every cell contains hundreds of mitochondria, responsible for generating chemical energy store molecules to power cellular operations. Dysfunctional mitop...

This study examines evidence suggesting that mitochondrial dysfunction plays a significant early impact on AD pathology.
Although mitochondrial dysfunction is a typical indication of Alzheimer's disease, it is unclear whether the cellular systems that maintain mitochondrial integrity malfunction, aggravating mitochondrial pathology. Different levels of vigilance and preventive methods are used to reduce mitochondrial damage and efficiently destroy faulty mitochondria to maintain the mitochondrial equilibrium. The form and function of mitochondria are regulated by mitochondrial fusion and fission. In contrast, mitoch...

Enhancing Mitochondrial Function in the Context of Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Retinal degeneration is a prevalent issue in later life, and age-related macular degeneration is the poster child for this class of conditions. It is irreversible at present, setting aside a few technology demonstrations of gene therapies and cell therapies, but researchers are seeking cost-effective ways to at least slow it down. Mitochondria are the power plants of the cell, responsible for packaging energy store molecules to power cellular processes. They also generate potentially harmful free radicals while doing so. Mitochondrial function declines with age, less packaging and more free radicals, and this contributes t...

Videos about using the UCSC Genome Browser for analysis of SarsCOV2
These look pretty useful and thought I would post here. Text is from the UCSC Youtube channelThis 5-part video series is for virologists and public health researchers interested in leveraging the UCSC Genome Browser and web interface to UShER (Ultrafast Sample placement on Existing tRees). These tools are a ' one-stop shop ' to understand SARS-CoV-2 through genome annotations as well as track variants by placing your samples in a phylogenetic tree with millions of other SARS-CoV-2 sequences. Use the SARS-CoV-2 Genome Browser:http://bit.ly/sarscov2browser Visit our SARS-CoV-2 Genome Browser and UShER quick start page ...

I didn't want to do this . . .
I felt I didn ' t have time to argue over something so ridiculous, which is really off topic for this blog, but I ' d like to set the record straight. The claim that the United States is responsible for the Syria civil war, and that it would have been over in a year if the U.S. hadn ' t supplied weapons to the rebels, is preposterous. Sorry, but that is Russian propaganda, and that ' s what concerns me.There is a Wikipedia page, in fact, that details all of the weapons used by Syrian rebels and what is known about where they came from. Much of their weaponry was captured or taken from stockpiles. Some of it came from Iran ...

988 and 911: Justice System Involvement in Mental Health Crises
BY BEN WHEATLEY
A woman was walking in the crosswalk of a busy intersection as the rain started to come down. She looked cold, but more than that, she looked off. She had no shoes on her feet and her countenance was in disarray. It seemed to me that she was in the midst of a mental health crisis.
The woman approached where I was standing and I suggested that she go into the Starbucks on the corner to look for her shoes. At least in there, it would be warm. She didn’t go inside, but instead went to the entrance and sat down on the ground.
Someone must have called 911 because a policeman and an ambulance with ...

Senolytics as a Treatment for Intervertebral Disc Degeneration
Degenerative disc disease is commonplace, and in recent years research has implicated the age-related accumulation of senescent cells in the onset and progression of this condition. Senolytic drugs to clear senescent cells may thus be a useful treatment. Existing senolytics, such as the dasatinib and quercetin combination, could be applied to many age-related conditions, since senescent cells and their inflammatory secretions produce broad negative effects on cell and tissue function. Unfortunately there is little funding and financial incentive for academic organizations to run clinical trials for even a significant fract...
