Ziagen (also known as abacavir) is a common component in the 'cocktail' of anti-retroviral treatments that keep the AIDS virus at bay. Researchers looked at data from an ongoing probe into the health of more than 33,000 people with HIV being followed at over 200 clinics. The risk of a heart attack among people taking Ziagen was 89 percent higher than among those who did not take the drug.

      The potential health risks associated with untreated indigestion are well documented, but acid reflux pain should serve as a strong reminder of those suffering from it, that they need to do something to correct the condition. The acid reflux pain is usually caused by stomach acid being refluxed into the esophagus and irritating its lining. It is typically a severe burning sensation that will seldom subside on its own. The use of antacid tablets or other over-the-counter medication can often lessen the severity of the acid reflux pain but if left to linger for days it is strong enough to burn a hole through the lining of the esophagus. Easing past the lower esophageal sphincter is common with acid reflux, but when it flows continually upwards and makes it way through the upper esophageal sphincter, the pain in the throat may spread into the larynx and can cause acid reflux pain to radiate in to the ears. It is not uncommon for those with indigestion to experience such severe acid reflu

      Heart Attack Boosts Diabetes Risk
      After a heart attack, the risk of developing diabetes and so-called pre-diabetes rises steeply, a new study finds.In fact, recent heart attack patients are up to four-and-a-half times more likely to develop diabetes compared with the general population and more than 15 times more likely to develop high blood sugar, according to the report in the Aug. 25 issue of The Lancet."Having a heart attack means that the chances of getting diabetes later are increased," said Dr. Lionel Opie, director of the Hatter Cardiovascular Research Institute at the University of Cape Town, South Africa, and author of an accompanying journal editorial. "We already know that diabetes predisposes one to heart attack, now we add that heart attacks predispose one to diabetes -- one nasty disease leads to another, and it's a two-way process."In the study, a team led by Dr. Roberto Marchioli, from the Laboratory of Clinical Epidemiology of Cardiovascular Disease, Consorzio Mario Negri Sud, Chieti, Italy, collecte

      Bo Diddley Suffers Heart Attack
      The terms originator and pioneer are incredibly overused by today’s media. A band’s importance is often grossly exaggerated, but in the case of Bo Diddley, every piece of praise heaped upon the songwriter is completely deserved. His infamous ‘Bo Diddley’ riff perfectly melded Blues with Rock N Roll, setting the stage for an uncountable number of future musicians. Sadly, Bo has been in poor health the last few years, and his condition seems to be deteriorating.

Incidence of new-onset diabetes and IGF were measured at 0•5, 1•0, 1•5, 2•5, and 3•5 years follow-up. Data for body-mass index, other risk factors, dietary habits, and medications were updated during the follow up, and a Mediterranean diet score was given to each patient based on their consumption of raw and cooked vegetables, fruit, fish and olive oil.Read more...click herepermalink TechnoratiPhilippine Nursing http://Philippinenursing.blogspot.com121550fce609bcdf

      FDA Votes to Keep Avandia on the Market -- Despite Known Heart Attack Risk
      Earlier this year, it came out in The New England Journal of Medicine that the widely used diabetes drug Avandia increases the risk of heart attack and possibly death. Now, even though a federal drug advisory committee, assembled by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), voted 20 to 3 that Avandia does raise the risk of heart attacks, it voted 22 to 1 that the drug should remain on the market.Their reasoning? Studies involving Avandia were "too murky to merit drastic regulatory action" and other diabetes drugs may have similar risks.Apparently, causing hundreds of thousands of heart attacks, strokes, and death does not warrant regulatory action in the eyes of the FDA.FDA drug safety officer Dr. David Graham -- one of my heroes -- may have been the lone voice calling for Avandia's withdrawal from the market. He reportedly voiced that the drug had caused as many as 205,000 heart attacks, strokes, and death from 1999 to 2006. He went on to say that for every month Avandia is sold,

      Heart Attack Triggers You Should Know
      According to this somewhat light-hearted article, just getting out of bed in the morning may be the worst thing you can do if you're trying to avoid a heart attack. There are a wide variety of events that can trigger an already susceptible heart to go into cardiac failure, including: Dehydration A bout of anger Strenuous exercise Infectious diseases, like pneumonia or the flu Most heart attacks occur first thing in the morning upon waking, as your body releases stress hormones into your bloodstream to prepare your body to get moving. This rise may cause a cardiac event if your arteries are already sufficiently clogged with cholesterol-rich plaque.But, in order to prevent cardiac events, you really need to start at the prevention stage, rather than trying to avoid all triggers.About 20 percent of heart attacks go undetected, so you may want to check your susceptibility. Your HDL ratio is a potent heart disease risk factor, so check your ratios by dividing your

      Heart Attack
      On any given day, you can hear an ambulance, with sirens blaring, on the way to an emergency. But in some emergencies, action should be taken before paramedics arrive. One of those is a heart attack. Bob McKenzie is the public information officer for the Nevada Department of Transportation. He clearly remembers the day he suffered a heart attack, the day after his 56th birthday. McKenzie says, "We were in a strategic planning meeting. And it felt like a spear had gone through my body. You feel pain on both sides, both the front and back." As with many heart attack victims, Bob tried to shrug off the symptom. But after a while, he asked someone to drive him to the hospital -- a decision that probably saved his life. "I really had no idea that I was having a heart attack until the doctor at Nellis, in looking at the EKG, says, do you realize at this moment you're having a massive heart attack?" Looking back, Bob now believes the signs should have been obv

      Mild Panic or Full Blown Heart Attack?
      As they big day draws ever closer, I’ve been finding it harder to relax. I’ve found this particularly strange because if you asked me I’d tell you I’m not at all stressed about becoming a Dad. Quite the opposite, I’m looking forward to it. But then again, I just can’t relax. It’s so bad, in fact, that I’ve started lying in bed, half asleep, and I get palpitations in my chest and a throbbing in my head. Then a big wave goes through my body and I wake up. I’ll lie there for a bit, then the same will happen again. Now, is that an impending heart attack? Or am I paranoid? Am I worried about the baby? Can my body not slowly unwind and needs to do it in a big bang? Obviously as I’m a man, I won’t go to the doctor about this; I’ll either die or get over it. In the mean time, I’ll probably just worry about it a little. This, I believe, is the start of the downward spiral where I worry about being worried which worrie

      Premise of Sleep and Heart Attack
      Sleep is modified by psychosocial settings stored up during routine daily activity. Just as that short-term memory plays a role in modify-ing sleep behavior, long term stress also instigates such disbalance. The degree of disbalance would mount assertively if the source of in-trigue also persists during sleep. Similarly an extreme degree of auto-nomic disbalance is eventuated, when somatic afferents fire at a greater frequency due to frictional electricity produced in the bed when particularly synthetic clothing and synthetic bed lenin is used. It is also anticipated that these influences would also instigate coronary vasospasm, nocturnal angina besides instigating cardiac irregulari-ties of all grades. These influences are likely to disrupt the normal sleep; dream and even the sensual behavior other than sleep apnea related problems due to failure in rhythmogenesis.Sleep – Related Respiratory Disorders:One of the remarkable developments in medicine has been the recog-nition of a div
