[...] Women Take Charge of Breast Cancer in Different Ways: Sociologist…Newswise – Newswise (press release) – Apr 4, 2008Due in part to positive changes made by the Women?s Health Movement since the 1970s, says Ericksen, there is enormous pressure from our culture today for women to take charge of their disease. Donna, a 48-year-old lawyer and married mother, described for Ericksen a decision-making process that is typical of biomedical experts: ?What I usually do is seek a lot of people?s opinions first, and then I get all those different opinions, and then I decide for myself. ?According to Ericksen, we hear accounts most often from these ?biomedical experts,? as well as ?alternative medicine experts? who by contrast do not put their faith in traditional medicine, because they are most often driven to tell their stories. But in keeping with the author?s goal of letting patients? voices be heard, Taking Charge of Breast Cancer showcases stories from members of other groups of responders as well ? traditional responders and those who turn to religion or activism for strength. The majority of the religious responders, defined as those who relied on faith as a basis for recovery, were African American. Like other religious responders, Shantal, a married 51-year-old African American woman and longtime city employee, believed that God played a role in ensuring her early diagnosis. Normally reserved, Shantal insisted on a biopsy when her radiologist told her that calcifications were nothing to worry about.Related: Quest for confidence leads more teen girls to breast surgeons’… [...]

[...] Hope For New Diabetes Treatments: Novel Gut-brain-liver Circuit…Science Daily – Science Daily (press release) – Apr 10, 2008Currently, those with diabetes lower their glucose through diet, exercise, anti-diabetic tablets or insulin injections (usually several times a day) and must regularly monitor blood glucose levels. High glucose levels can result in damage to eyes, nerves and kidneys and increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, blindness, erectile dysfunction, foot problems and amputations. Many laboratories around the world are in a race to find alternative and effective ways in which to lower glucose levels because of the severe complications which can result from high sugar levels. "We already knew that the brain and liver can regulate blood glucose levels, but the question has been, how do you therapeutically target either of these two organs without incurring side effects?" noted Dr. Lam, who is also an Assistant Professor of Physiology and Medicine at the University of Toronto. "We may have found a way around this problem by suggesting that the gut can be the initial target instead. Much like a remote control device, the gut is able to relay a signal to the brain which in turn signals the liver to lower glucose production… Many laboratories around the world are in a race to find alternative and effective ways in which to lower glucose levels because of the severe complications which can result from high sugar levels.

Much like a remote control device, the gut is able to relay a signal to the brain which in turn signals the liver to lower glucose production. If new medicines can be developed that stimulate this sensing mechanism in the gut, we may have an effective way of slowing down the body’s production of sugar, thereby lowering blood sugar levels in diabetes.Related: Acne treatments: Promising therapies for clearer skin [...]
