Post-Op Delirium Could Signal Faster Mental Decline
TUESDAY, March 21, 2023 (HealthDay News) -- Older adults often develop delirium after surgery, and new research finds this is associated with a faster rate of mental decline.The study highlights the importance of preventing delirium to preserve brain health in older adults who undergo surgery, according to the authors.“Whether delirium causes this faster rate of decline, or is simply a marker of those who are at risk of experiencing faster rates of decline, is still to be determined,†co-author Zachary Kunicki said in a news release from the Marcus Institute for Aging Research, in Boston.Kunicki is an assistant professor in the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, in Providence, R.I. The investigators found a 40% faster rate of cognitive (mental) decline in those who...
Poll Finds Many Parents Unaware of Kids' Exposure to Vaping
20 March 2023
MONDAY, March 20, 2023 (HealthDay News) -- Four out of five U.S. parents questioned in a large poll believe their preteen and teenage kids are clear on the risks that electronic cigarettes pose, and only a few think their child actually vapes.Still, if their child did vape, would parents know? Nearly half of more than 1,300 parents polled said they would.The findings, experts say, point to a potential disconnect between what parents think is going on and the real deal when it comes to vaping among American youth. “These findings point to a few ways parents might be off,†said poll co-director Sarah Clark. For one thing, Clark pointed to 2022 data compiled by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that found that 14% of high school students and 3% of middle schoolers...

What is an anxiety attack? According to the Detroit Medical Center, an anxiety attack is a stretch of time during which you experience “intense†anxiety symptoms, especially fear.

In Rare Cases, Drug-Resistant 'Superbugs' Can Pass Between People & Their Pets
20 March 2023
MONDAY, March 20, 2023 (HealthDay News) -- In more bad news about antibiotic resistance, new research suggests that people and their pets may be able to transmit multidrug-resistant germs to each other. Still, cases of cross-transmission are rare and it's not clear if pets are giving germs to people or people are giving germs to their pets, the study authors noted."In urban areas in high-income countries, pets do not seem to be a multidrug-resistant reservoir of high importance," said lead researcher Dr. Carolin Hackmann, from Charité University Hospital Berlin, in Germany. "Still, good hygiene practices in contact with pets should be kept up to further prevent transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms."The study can't prove that people and pets made each other sick, only that...

Bile Duct Cancer: Awareness, Funding Needed to Fight This Silent Killer
20 March 2023
MONDAY, March 20, 2023 (HealthDay News) -- Lawyer, entrepreneur and avid athlete Mark Clements participated in the 2005 St. George Marathon in Utah, but ongoing stomach pains made finishing the event a struggle.“He was having some stomach pain,†recalled his sister Stacie Lindsey. “My dad had had ulcers, and so he thought that he had ulcers.â€After finishing the marathon, Clements, then 38, went straight in to see his doctor. Ultrasound and other tests confirmed that it wasn’t ulcers -- Clements had cholangiocarcinoma, or cancer of the bile duct.“They could clearly see that it had metastasized outside the liver,†Lindsey said. “It had spread quite prolifically.â€Bile duct cancer is a relatively rare cancer, with an estimated 8,000 to 20,000 new cases diagnosed each...
