Sports Like Soccer, Basketball Are Better Than Running for Young People's Bones
FRIDAY, Oct. 14, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Playing sports can benefit children in many ways, but all sports are not equal when it comes to their bones.New research suggests children will have healthier bones if they participate in multidirectional sports such as soccer or basketball, rather than unidirectional activities such as running.Mixing it up a bit with a variety of sports instead of focusing on just one is also less likely to lead to overuse injuries, the researchers noted."Our data shows that playing multidirectional sports when younger versus specializing in one sport, such as running, decreased a person's bone injury risk by developing a bigger, stronger skeleton," said study author Stuart Warden. He is associate dean of research and professor of health and human sciences at...
Menthols Make Up 40% of U.S. Cigarette Sales; Ban Could...
14 October 2022
FRIDAY, Oct. 14, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- A proposed ban on menthol cigarettes could have a significant impact on smoking rates, especially among minorities, new U.S. research suggests.Adult smokers who are younger, have mental health problems and are from racial/ethnic minority groups are more likely to use menthol cigarettes than other groups, according to a study from Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and The City University of New York.About 2 of every 5 smokers use menthol cigarettes. In 2020, that included more than 80% of Black smokers.“That approximately 50% of smokers who were Hispanic, female, ages 18 to 25 and 26 to 34, lesbian/gay and adults with mental health problems used menthol [cigarettes] in 2020 is higher than previously reported and suggests use...
Study Debunks Theory That Depressed People Are Just More...
14 October 2022
FRIDAY, Oct. 14, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Some people believe in the idea of “depressive realism†— that depressed people are just more realistic than others about how much they control their lives. But a new study upends that theory. The idea has been around for about four decades, ever since a 1979 study of college students that seemed to support the theory. That study looked at whether students could predict how much control they would have over a light turning green when they pushed a button. The researchers back then found that students who weren’t depressed overestimated their own level of control and that depressed students were better at identifying when they had no control over the lights.In the current study, researchers tried to replicate those findings but were...

Allergy Meds in Street Opioids Make Overdoses More Deadly
13 October 2022
THURSDAY, Oct. 13, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- A new study is sounding the alarm about the addition of antihistamines to street forms of opioids — and how they might make a fatal overdose more likely.The prime drug in question is diphenhydramine, found commonly in over-the-counter allergy meds such as Benadryl. Because opioid use can spur itchy skin in people who misuse the drugs, diphenhydramine is often mixed into street formulations to curb that symptom. However, diphenhydramine is also very sedating. So when a person overdoses on an opioid, the addition of diphenhydramine makes the “rescue†drug naloxone less effective, warns a team from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.In fact, “nearly 15% of overdose deaths during 2019-2020 were antihistamine-positive,â€...
Curbing Football Drills Could Make High School Football Safer
13 October 2022
THURSDAY, Oct. 13, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Tackling drills are typically a staple of high school football practices, but new research suggests dropping them from training might cut the risk of head hits.Using mouth guards with sensors that recorded every head hit, researchers found players who spent 5,144 minutes in non-contact practice had just 310 head hits, while those who had nearly 7,000 minutes in high-speed training with contact only above the waist had more than 3,300 head hits.Head hits in football that lead to concussions and permanent brain damage conditions like chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) have prompted experts to find ways to reduce head trauma. "This study was fueled by some of the failures in the past by NCAA [National Collegiate Athletic Association], and...
COVID Drug Paxlovid Might Interact With Heart Meds
13 October 2022
THURSDAY, Oct. 13, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- The COVID-19 antiviral Paxlovid has been a game-changer in the global pandemic, shielding high-risk patients from the coronavirus’ most devastating effects.But Paxlovid can itself pose a risk for people taking widely prescribed heart medications to lower cholesterol, prevent blood clots or manage irregular heartbeat, a new paper warns.Some heart patients might need to either avoid Paxlovid or cut back on their heart meds while receiving the antiviral treatment, warns senior researcher Dr. Sarju Ganatra, director of the cardio-oncology program at Lahey Hospital and Medical Center in Burlington, Mass.The situation presents a tightrope walk for doctors and patients, given that Paxlovid reduces progression to severe COVID by 89% in high-risk...

13 October 2022
THURSDAY, Oct. 13, 2022 (American Heart Association News) -- On an August morning, Nicole Tetreault, her husband, Brian, and their 2-year-old daughter, Ella, had eaten breakfast and taken a walk.Nicole hadn't been feeling well since Friday.

When she arrived, she noticed a newcomer standing next to her.During the first few minutes of warmup, before the high-intensity class began, Nicole saw herself in the mirror and thought, "I look tired. I'm not going to push myself today."A few minutes later, 37-year-old Nicole picked up a weight for the first set...
