“What can I eat?” ఆరోగ్యంగా తినడం ప్రారంభించండి.

 “What can I eat?”

 Being aware of what you eat when you have diabetes is important
for keeping blood glucose levels in your target ranges and reducing the risk of
complications.

 This task can look like it is impossible
But living with diabetes doesn’t mean you have to
completely change your whole diet or stop eating all the foods you love. It’s
about choosing nutritious foods and preparing them in a way that is healthy
and enjoyable. When you know the basics of healthy eating, it gets easier!

Why Google Docs Suck, Having chinese who do not understand democracy.

 pet peeves from an article  by  Tony BradleyPCWorld | 

Translations.

 Although Google hypes the ability of Google Docs to translate text into so many different languages as a benefit, my tests found that the resulting translations were mostly useless gibberish. The tool might work fine for individual words, or even complete sentences, but translating entire documents did not go well at all--especially when translating to languages that use different alphabets, or reverse the reading direction from the Western standard of left-to-right to right-to-left"


5. The Little Things. Really, if I had to choose my biggest complaint about Google Docs, it would be this--the little things. The little things add up. The little things make work more efficient, and life easier. Which little things, you ask? Things like having the word count of a document displayed at the bottom so I can see it as I type rather than having to stop and select the option from a menu. Things like having easy, right-click access to synonyms as I type instead of having to install some thesaurus browser extension. Things like being able to paste content into a document and choose how to format it on the fly, or being able to dynamically see what different heading or font choices might look like before I select them.
I am sure it sounds to some as if I am just whining about trivial things. But, it is those trivial things that I rely on throughout the day, and those are the things I have missed the most during this experience.

TRIPS and the India's poor



Since India's independence in 1947, its pharmaceutical industry has passed through several crucial phases of development. Until the early 1970s, India's patent regime provided patents for products as well as processes in pharmaceuticals. Multinational companies (MNCs) held all the patents on drugs and pharmaceuticals and dominated the Indian healthcare market. India's domestic pharmaceutical industry was almost non-existent and the local manufacturing of medicines was negligible. India was a net importer of drugs and pharmaceuticals, and the result was that drug prices in India were among the highest in the world. The vast majority of the Indian population lived below the poverty line, and access to medicines was limited to 15—20 percent of the total population (Bhagat 1982). In the 1970s, India introduced an array of protectionist measures including drug price controls and controls over foreign exchange. As a part of these measures, Patents Act 1970 was introduced abolish- ing pharmaceutical product patents but allowing process patents for seven years from the filing date. This change meant that every drug was virtually generic and hence could be legally copied for sale. The new landscape provided Indian firms opportunities to enhance their reverse engineering skills and develop new manufacturing processes. In other words, India followed a model allowing the manufacture of copies of drugs patented elsewhere. Over the next three decades, the domestic firms proliferated making India almost self-sufficient in medicines. The drug prices in India dropped to be one of the lowest in the world and access to medicines increased to around 35 percent of the population. Even at these low prices, access to medicines remained beyond the reach of two-thirds of India's population.

 Access to medicines requires improvement in four components of healthcare provision: namely, (1) ensuring rational selection (of drugs), (2) providing sustainable financing, (3) ensuring efficient systems for distribution, and (4) maintaining affordable drug prices. 
 the absence of sustainable financing as the principal hindrance to access to medicines. 
This approach is consistent with the literature on the affordability of drugs.

 For example, the World Bank (2002) points out that nearly 25 percent of the poor people in India do not even seek healthcare because of the costs. "Thus, the primary focus of this book remains on how to improve access to medicines by reducing costs of drugs to increase affordability. In Chapter 8, we also undertake sensitivity analysis of the proposed model to consider the long-term sustainability of financing such a programme from the public purse."



During the period of protectionist framework, India also became a net exporter of pharmaceuticals. India's drugs were initially exported to developing countries and the former Eastern Bloc countries. India supplied the poor countries with low-cost imitations of patented drugs as well as off-patent generics. India's exports increased drug availability as well as reduced drug prices in the developing countries. More recently, highly regulated markets such as the US and European countries have also become the destination of India's exports of off-patent generics. Thus, Indian firms have played a major role in significant price reductions after patent expiry in the overseas markets. In 1991, India began introducing policies of economic liberalisation and industrial reforms. As a part of this policy shift, India joined the WTO when it was established in 1994 and as such was obliged to sign the TRIPS agreement. While developed countries implemented the agreement virtually spontaneously, developing countries were given until 2000, and countries such as India, which previously did not pro-


compliant patent regime. Unless the WTO grants further extensions, the least developed countries (LDCs) have until 2016 to introduce the required changes. The TRIPS agreement set out minimum standards for intellectual property protection across all member states. This standard is significantly higher than what the developing nations previously had. For example, TRIPS provides patents for 20 years. Before TRIPS, the protection in the US was 17 years and in the EU was 15 years. The extension of the protection term is more significant in the developing member states. For the developing countries, including India, which previously did not provide product patents, the new regime has effectively raised the protection term from years to 20 years in these countries. 1.2 Key issues and key questions With the implementation of the TRIPS agreement since 2005, India has re-introduced product patents in pharmaceuticals for 20 years. In sim-

re-introduced product patents in pharmaceuticals for 20 years. In simple terms, this change means that patented products can no longer be copied for sale in the domestic market or for exports. But holistically seen, the new regime has wider implications for the domestic pharmaceutical industry, its exports, drug prices, and access to medicines within and outside India. The new industrial landscape severely restricts the competitive environment that existed in India over the last 30 years. This change also


creates monopolies for patent holders which almost entirely are MNCs. Many questions arise in the wake of these changes: How would the change affect availability and prices of patented drugs introduced in India? With the sizeable domestic industry that India now has, is the market likely to return to the pre-1970 MNCs domination? Indian pharmaceutical industry is now faced with unprecedented challenges within its own territory and outside. The industry is undergoing a transformational process and trying new business models. Is the overall number of domestic firms likely to shrink? Are the small local firms likely to survive in the long run? What role would they play in the future provision of India's healthcare? Business models of domestic firms could determine what drugs are manufactured in India, where these drugs are marketed, and at what price? All these factors play a vital role in providing access to medicines. There are general apprehensions that drug prices in India and also in other developing countries will rise significantly due to the regime change. Any rise in drug prices is going to further restrict access to

Diabetic cheiroarthropathy

Diabetic cheiroarthropathy or 'stiff joint syndrome' is Of particular importance to an anesthetist, as is may be an indication that the patient is difficult to intubate with an endotracheal tube. The condition is thought to be present in up to 30% Of patients with type I diabetes and is marked by the presence Of a 'positive prayer sign'. With this, patients are unable to achieve contact between their palms and phalangeal joints when the hands are placed together as in prayer.

LIMITED JOINT MOBILITY (CHEIROARTHROPATHY) Limited joint mobility, or what is now termed cheiroarthropathy, was formerly one of the earliest and most common clinical complications seen in type 1 diabetes. Since the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial, it was believed that there was a marked decrease in prevalence of cheiroarthropathy in both children and adults. Unfortunately, this long-term complication of diabetes has received little attention, has not been well studied in clinical research studies, and likely is not well recognized in clinical care. However, if cheiroarthropathy is present, it is a potentially important clinical marker for diabetes complications such as retinopathy, diabetic kidney disease, neuropathy, and abnormalities in growth stature. Risk Factors Cheiroarthropathy is strongly associated with duration of diabetes, particularly individuals with a year history of type 1 diabetes or longer. Accumulation of advanced glycation end products associated with chronic hyperglycemia may be responsible for cheiroarthropathy. Other risk factors include advanced age and the presence of microvascular complications. Definition Diabetic cheiroarthropathy is characterized by thickened skin and limited mobility of joints in the hands and fingers leading to flexion In a recent analysis by the DCCT/EDIC investigators, it was defined as the presence of any one of the following findings: adhesive capsulitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, flexor tenosynovitis, Dupuytren's contracture, or positive prayer sign.

Bioidentical Hormones 101

By Jeffrey Dach



Nowhere is that more evident than in hormonal medicine. We don't have a specialty called "hormonologist," but we in fact need one. In the meantime, doctors from a variety Of disciplines — family practice, gynecology, anti-aging medicine, integrative and functional medicine and more — are increasingly becoming experts in the art and science of diagnosing and treating hormone imbalances. They are discovering that they spend an increasing amount of their time with patients being a hormone detective. These hormone detectives with doctors like Dr. Dach on the front lines are breaking new ground, looking at the role Of the thyroid, the adrenal glands, the reproductive organs, and the body's management of insulin and glucose, as key components of our health, and as smoking guns responsible for many Of today's worst health challenges, like heart disease, inflammation, and obesity.

"A balanced thyroid plays a vital role in your metabolism. Mary Shomon, author of The Thyroid Diet, says that certain foods high in tyrosine assist the body in the production of the thyroid hormone, T 3, which helps you utilize more oxygen and burn more calories. Foods high in tyrosine are cottage cheese, egg whites, safflower seeds, and meats such as turkey, antelope, quail, and buffalo."

"An astonishing book revealing the cause and successful treatment for the plague of illnesses affecting western civilization; including obesity, heart attacks, depression, diabetes, strokes, headaches, chronic fatigue, and many more"
..
"Perhaps the cause of cancer has been elusive because the evidence supports the theory that the cause is a reversal of polarity instead of biochemical. In addition, one must consider that each organ has its own battery pack: a stack of muscle batteries known as an acupuncture meridian. The reversal of polarity occurs in a battery in a circuit and the accompanying loss of oxygen with low voltage tells local stem cells to make a placenta (cancer) to attempt to correct the low voltage and oxygen via fermentation since there is inadequate oxygen to keep that organ functional."

Diabetes-related amputations: How we crunched the data
by Brandon Quester | September 20, 2017

To identify the increase in diabetes-related amputations in California, inewsource analyzed data from the California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development, the agency that collects information about the care provided to patients discharged from California hospitals.
The data, compiled at the request of inewsource, includes more than 100 separate billing codes, by body part and procedure, detailing patients treated within hospitals across the state. The data represents the number of amputation procedures, not the number of patients treated.

Explore the rate of amputations in California.
Because the number of diabetes patients is unknown at the state or county level, inewsource calculated the rate of occurrence for diabetes-related amputations as the number of amputations per 100,000 residents, by county and year. That calculation used population estimates from the California Department of Finance to account for population growth over time.
By calculating amputations as a rate of occurrence within the state’s overall population, by county and year, inewsource was able to compare and rank counties across California. Some counties had fewer than 11 diabetes-related amputations and were redacted for privacy concerns, so inewsource removed those from the statewide analysis.
In addition, inewsource removed counties that reported fewer than 20 diabetes-related amputations in either 2010 or 2016 because numbers that small are considered unreliable.

 if you remove the counties which showed low amputation numbers, then the rest of the counties will most likely show a higher number of amputations .n but does this mean these numbers of incresed amputations reliable? I am not an expert in statistics but somehow common sense tells me  there is something wrong with this number-crunching .
