Medical Express explains that those who are exposed to airborne manganese at levels below the federal standards appear to have neuro problems that are quite similar to Parkinson’s. This is according to a new report from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. They also discovered that the more these workers are exposed to the substance, the faster the sign and symptoms worsen. The results were released on December 28, in the journal Neurology. It suggests that the current protocol for safety may not be as effective in protecting the welders. Low Levels Of Manganese In Welding Fumes Cause Neurological ProblemsAt high levels, manganese – a key component of important industrial processes such as welding and steelmaking – can cause manganism, a severe neurologic disorder with symptoms similar to Parkinson’s disease, including slowness, clumsiness, tremors, mood changes, and difficulty walking and speaking. Read more… Science Daily explores the results further. The findings of the researchers indicate that chronic exposure to manganese-containing fumes is highly associated with progressive neurological symptoms. These include slow movement and difficulty speaking. Brad A. Racette, MD, a professor of neurology and the study’s senior author says that the more exposure you have, the faster your symptoms progress over time. The risk that workers face, especially that of manganism, led the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to limit manganese levels in workplaces. Welding Fumes Cause Neurological ProblemsAt high levels, manganese — a key component of important industrial processes such as welding and steelmaking — can cause manganism, a severe neurologic disorder with symptoms similar to Parkinson’s disease, including slowness, clumsiness, tremors, mood changes, and difficulty walking and speaking. Read more… Eurekalert added: Dr. Racette says these workers are developing parkinsonian symptoms. What’s even baffling is that their exposure to manganese is below the regulatory limits. The study implies that there is a need to strictly monitor the manganese exposure, as well as implementing compliance in using protective equipment. Moreover, he says that a systematic assessment of welders should be done in order to stop the progress of the disease. For Welders, Parkinson-Like Symptoms Get Worse With ExposureWelding has been linked to parkinsonism, which is a general term for a group of disorders that cause movement problems similar to those seen in Parkinson’s disease, such as slow movement and stiffness. Read more… It may be good practice to strictly comply with the safety standards for manganese exposure. The study tackles that while welders do their jobs, they are still vulnerable to the disease. The government and the companies should devise a stronger plan on how to deal with this condition.

The Globe and Mail reveals that Burger King and Tim Horton’s have a major plan in 2018. That would be switching to chicken raised without antibiotics. The owner said last Wednesday that the change is “critically important.” That makes it the latest company to prioritize health concerns over the drugs. Restaurant Brands International Inc owns both brands and they’ve planned it all out. Changes will be effective in the US by 2017 while Canada will follow suit in 2018. Burger King, Tim Hortons To Reduce Antibiotics In Chicken At Canadian Chains In 2018An estimated 70 percent of antibiotics that are important to fighting human infections and ensuring the safety of invasive procedures such as surgeries are sold for use in meat and dairy production. Read more… Global News Canada talks about the use of antibiotics in meat and dairy production. Around 70% of these antibiotics are essential in dealing with human infections and for surgery preparations. What happens is that it may be contributing to the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria called “superbugs. Scientists and health experts share the same sentiment: the overuse of these drugs is responsible for life-threatening human infections. Restaurant Brands International said that it’s important to reduce the use of these drugs to preserve the efficacy for both vet and human meds. Burger King, Tim Horton’s to curb antibiotics in chicken supplyConcern has been growing among scientists, public health experts, consumers and shareholders that the overuse of such drugs is contributing to rising numbers of life-threatening human infections from antibiotic-resistant bacteria dubbed “superbugs. Read more… Time.com says that the two brands are following the footsteps of other food chains like McDonald’s and Wendy’s. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP) reports that at least 2 million people are infected with superbugs – 23,000 die as a result. In the U.S., McDonald’s has already removed drugs that are important to human medicine. Wendy’s pledged to remove chickens raised with antibiotics by 2017, and Chick-fil-A plans to do the same by 2019. Burger King, Tim Horton’s Pledge to Reduce Antibiotics Used in ChickenBurger King and Tim Horton’s lag behind competitors like McDonald’s, Chick-fil-A and Wendy’s, which have announced similar initiatives to curb antibiotic use in their meat. Read more… This raises a great concern globally, as we’ve been known to use the last line of antibiotics against common infections. If the companies will be able to proceed with their plan, it will be more beneficial to people. It might also have a better positive effect if their international food chains will also follow their lead.

Time.com shares the story about a patient who was treated using brain cancer immunotherapy. One year after the treatment, he is still alive and well. Using this kind of therapy is quickly becoming popular in terms of dealing with tumors. Promising results are associated mostly with blood cancers like lymphomas and leukemias. The therapy has yet to prove its capabilities in treating other solid tumors like breast, prostate, lung and colon cancers. Experimental Brain Cancer Treatment Is a SuccessBut in a report published in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers led by Dr. Behnam Badie from the City of Hope Beckman Research Institute and Medical Center say that the same immune-based therapy that is successful against blood cancers also helped a patient with advanced brain cancer. Read more… The researchers used CAR-T therapy, and the results were promising. Glioblastoma is considered to be a critical condition as it is one of the deadliest cancers. This is a kind of disease that responds to very limited treatment options. Most of the time, the outcome is poor. However, a single case study may give cancer specialists a new approach on how to handle the therapy for this disease. CAR-T treatment has been deemed as controversial and has had some issues during the clinical trials. However, in this case, it has shown a lot of progress in solid tumor cancers. CAR-T Therapy Makes Early Inroads In Treating Brain CancerResearchers at the City of Hope cancer treatment center in the Los Angeles Area tested a CAR-T therapy out on a 50-year-old man with recurrent multifocal glioblastoma — that is, several tumors growing in tandem in his brain. He had failed all other available treatments. Read more… Gizmodo shares the story of the patient. The researchers from City of Hope Beckman Research Institute paved way for the revolutionary new therapy to potentially treat brain cancer. The 50-year old patient has recurring multifocal glioblastoma, and things were starting to get difficult for him. The disease is known for being so aggressive and unresponsive to treatments. The patient enrolled him in a clinical trial for CAR-T. Seven-and-a-half months later, the results were simply astounding. New Cancer Therapy Shows Promise in Treating Aggressive Brain TumorsSeven-and-a-half months later, the patient’s tumor had shrunk to virtually nothing, and he went into remission. Had the patient not received the experimental treatment, his doctors say he would have likely died by now. Read more… The development of this treatment is going to be a huge breakthrough for oncology. Hopefully, with more trials and research, there will be progress in the case.

In Guangzhou, China, a lab is breeding millions of mosquitoes. Their main objective is to eradicate the insect population that’s responsible for the spread of diseases like Zika. CNN.com shows what goes on inside the “factory.” The initial plan is to infect the eggs with a certain kind of bacteria that’s going to prevent them from transmitting harmful viruses. It’s also bound to make the males sterile. Eggs won’t hatch if ever they mate with wild females. Inside China’s ‘Mosquito Factory’Researchers in Guangzhou, China are breeding millions of mosquitos in a lab. Their goal is to eliminate dangerous mosquito populations that spread diseases like Zika and dengue. Read more… CNN’s special edition takes a closer look at the lives of the scientists on a mission. Zhiyong Xi wants to get rid of mosquitoes. To be exact, he wants those types that carry serious diseases to be eliminated. He wants to build good mosquitoes that can help against the bad ones. Xi is a researcher from Michigan State University. In his lab, you can find hundreds of trays filled with 6,000 mosquito larvae. The room smells of beef liver power cut with yeast. These serve as super foods for the little creatures. Inside China’s ‘mosquito factory’ fighting Zika and dengueThis “mosquito factory” is on Sun Yat-Sen University’s science campus, about an hour’s drive from the bustle of Guangzhou city center. The center’s full name is the Sun Yat-Sen-Michigan State University Joint Center of Vector Control for Tropical Disease, and here, lab technicians are breeding up to 5 million Aedes albopictus mosquitoes a week — a species more common in Asia, responsible for spreading both dengue and Zika. Read more… Gant Daily reports that these mosquitoes have been infected with bacteria that stops them from spreading viruses like dengue to the human population. The males in the group are released because the Wolbachia bacteria make them sterile. The females that they mate with will lay eggs that won’t hatch. The males have now been released on Shazai island. The location is 60 kilometers from the factory, and it separates the village of 1,900 people from the mainland. Based on Xi’s expectations, this technique can result into a great reduction in the number of mosquitoes. Inside China’s ‘Mosquito Factory’ Fighting Zika And DengueAlthough his method is unconventional, some scientists are hailing it as one of the most promising ways to eliminate two of the most common mosquito-borne diseases that affect millions each year.

Men’s Health tackles this stigma. They discussed depression with three guys and each has his own story to tell. They shared what it’s really like to have this condition. It’s not something that should be taken lightly just because they’re men and they’re just supposed to brush it off.

He said that in his early 30s, he was in a constant state of being angry. His kids would ask why he is so mad all the time. He didn’t know what was wrong. Depression: The Secret Men Won’t AdmitSadness isn’t macho — this Eric Weaver knew. When depression engulfed the Rochester, New York, police sergeant, it took a different guise: anger. Read more… The most difficult part would be acceptance. It’s something that should be recognized, first and foremost. The next step would be asking for help.

My Fitness Pal tackles the idea about the content of this fatty acid. There are health experts who tell clients that intake should be limited. But there are those who raise their flags and say that this has been unfairly judged over the years. What do you think? What’s opinion on this one? The main problem with this fatty acid is that it’s been linked with cardiovascular diseases. Get this though: while eating this increases your LDL (bad cholesterol numbers), it develops the size of those LDL cholesterol particles. Bigger LDL cholesterol particles were linked to a decreased risk in heart diseases.

According to its researchers, it should trigger a new wave of diet guidelines for cardiovascular health. Saturated Fats Not So Bad?
