The national campaign of vaccination against rubella was launched two years ago is repeated in these months, this time aimed at men. From September 29 to November 30 will be vaccinated free of charge to those who are between 16 and 39 years.
Eradication of rubella virus is the goal. Mass vaccination campaigns, how to achieve it. In 2006 the National Ministry of Health promoted the vaccination of all women 15 to 39 years, and this year it's time for them: "Men can contract and rubella infection in pregnant women, thus not enough to vaccinate only to women, "says Dr. Enrique Casanueva, Chief of the Infectious Diseases Hospital Infantil Universitario Austral.
Rubella is an acute viral disease, transmitted by saliva, which eliminates andalusia andalusia speak or cough, or by contaminated objects. Has the symptoms of not giving in "20 to 50% of cases," says infectologists. Emphasizes that "half of those infected do not show, or is confused with other disease."
Where is the danger then? In pregnancy. Unborn babies are the real target of this campaign, "according to Dr. Casanueva, because there is that rubella is manifested in more malignant. If a pregnant woman contracted the virus, it can produce fetal congenital rubella syndrome, with consequences ranging from fetal death to deafness, heart disease, blindness, mental retardation and malformations.
The purpose of the Ministry is to eliminate the infection permanently in the country. For this, he launched the September 29 national vaccination campaign for men - "reduce congenital rubella is also your responsibility, not only of women," says Dr Casanueva, and for women who were not vaccinated at 2006 and who are not pregnant at this time.
"We still lack enough to eradicate the virus," says the specialist. One of the flaws remains misinformation: "Many people are not vaccinated because they do not perceive a problem as rubella. As in adults and children is not serious, is not viewed with fear. The danger is the health of children born. "

Oral contraceptives with the sun favors the appearance of melasma in young women.
After the summer we have seen a spike in queries made to skin specialists because of this problem.
- The melasma are large brown spots that appear on the face due to the sun. His main areas of occurrence are the forehead, cheeks and upper lip area.
- Young women who take oral contraceptives are more likely to suffer, but also affect older women who continue hormone replacement therapy, pregnant women and even men.
- The melasma, lentigo with, are the two main causes of dark spots on the skin of the face, neck and back of hands.
- Upon entry of the fall, experts call for a review of the skin by a specialist to determine their status after exposure to the sun.
The end of summer has brought a surge of dermatological consultations on spots on the skin. According to the experts, one of the main problems in these consultations is melasma, large brown spots that appear in the area of the upper lip, forehead and cheeks. As indicated by the dermatologist Nerea Landa, "most cases of melasma are trying to meet the typical profile of a young woman or girl who likes to sunbathe and normally follow a treatment with oral contraceptives."
According to the outlines of the clinic dermatologist Dermitek of Bilbao, the explanation for this lies in the combination of hormones and sun, which often results in the appearance of these spots on the skin. Thus, the hormonal changes experienced by women while taking the pill when pregnant or when you follow a hormone replacement therapy are behind the vast majority of cases of melasma. Moreover, pointing to its prevalence and genetic influences to a lesser extent also occurs in men.
The dermatologist says that the incidence of melasma among the younger female population is growing because of increased propensity to be exposed to solar radiation. "Although in the prospectuses of oral contraceptives is advised of the risk of photosensitivity, this aspect is considered in very few occasions when sunbathing or just walking down the street," says Landa .
Once the melasma appears, it can take years in the skin of the person, and even extended. Despite its intensity during the winter it may ease slightly, with the arrival of spring and an increased intensity of UV rays, reappear, sometimes in a very unsightly. "
Treatment
Due to the location of the areas of appearance of melasma,-the forehead, cheeks and upper lip area, are frequent consultations to eliminate these spots on the skin. "Before, they tended to recommend depigmentation cream, but because the pigmentation of melasma is deeper, his action was ineffective in many cases."
Thus, according to the expert, "to penetrate to the deeper layers of skin, has demonstrated that what is best is to use a depigmentation mask made with a concentrated formula that increases the presence of active principles in areas to be treated. Thus allowing the scaly skin of a more controlled manner, achieving greater efficiency in depigmentation.
Similarly, Landa emphasizes the recent addition of two new technologies to treat these blemishes: the intense pulsed light (Intense Pulsed Light) and broadband light (Broad Band Light). The latter is similar to the pulsed light "but are physically built better and allows high levels of controlled delivery of energy." Its mechanism of action is that the light emitted is absorbed by the deep pigmentation, decreasing the concentration of melanin and, therefore, clarifying the spots. "
Control after the summer
The dermatologist also emphasizes the medical control of the skin, to avoid health problems that can become serious as the appearance of blemishes and aging skin afean and can be easily prevented or treated. The sun spots are numerous, both benign and malignant, so it is important to a diagnosis by a specialist, "he stressed.
Thus, the expert also concerns Lentigo, small brown spots in the form of gout that appear mainly on the face, neck and hands. "The year Lentigo arise in areas that have been exposed to the sun and also are more visible. As time passes, they grow in number and size, so it sometimes can be really striking. " This type of sunspots also have an easy clinical treatment.
"In Dermitek use a laser Q-switch alexandrite gemstone-a-light in combination with broadband. The laser works by emitting light pulses in nanoseconds. Thus, the fragment obtained from the stain-pigment melanin, whose remains were subsequently removed by the body naturally, "says Landa. On the other hand, the broadband light (LBB) works "clarifying stains and rejuvenate the skin." At this time you can eliminate lentigo with these technologies in one or two treatment sessions.
As for melanoma, the incidence is increasing concern. The prevalence figures increasing year after year and the health is critical because it is a highly metastatic cancer. In those with a family history of this cancer, which has a light skin, a relevant number of nevi, sunburn in childhood and continued exposure to sunlight, the need to regularly check is essential and mandatory extreme measures of prevention and protection against solar radiation.

A Spanish for the first time presiding over the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery
*
The ophthalmologist surgeon Jose Luis Güell, president-elect of the largest ophthalmic company in Europe
*
Prepare the 13th winter meeting of the Society to be held in February in Rome with crucial issues such as stem cells, genetic manipulation and ocular prosthesis
Dr. José Luis Güell, coordinator of the unit of cornea and refractive surgery in the Ocular Microsurgery Institute (IMO) in Barcelona, has become the first Spanish who chairs the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ESCRS). The specialist, who was Secretary of this Society from 2003 to 2007, was elected unanimously by the Board of Directors of the Company last September in Berlin.
The ESCRS, the most important ophthalmological society of Europe, aims to disseminate and train ophthalmologists in Europe through its two major annual conferences and activities organized with national societies in Europe. In addition, these meetings allow the trade to share knowledge and seek to improve the quality of care in Europe, especially in Eastern Europe and other countries of Asia and the Middle East. Also encourage certain attitudes and good practices in the exercise of the profession to prevent infection and prevent the onset of disease.
A presidency with crucial challenges
The thirteenth meeting of the ESCRS winter, which will take place from 6 to February 8 in Rome, will be the first to have a Spanish ophthalmologist and president-elect of the Society. The 1500 reunion will bring together specialists from across Europe on the table and put crucial challenges of the specialty, as the latest advances in cell culture with stem cells, genetic manipulation and artificial cornea implants (queratoprótesis), replacing the cornea. The latter technique is new to many European countries, which have not yet implemented.
Transplants without rejection and without reliance on donor quality
The use and applications of artificial cornea is a central theme of the meeting of ESCRS. Cell culture techniques and recent advances in genetic engineering are moving significantly in this field.
Thanks to the lamellar surgery, transplants can be made selective, by replacing only the damaged tissue and respecting the original structure of the cornea. For the moment such transplants have worked only in superficial layers of the eye and in most subsequent studies, but continue to cover all layers of the cornea. To achieve this, besides the skill of the surgeon are of great help new automated cutting devices, especially those based on femtosecond laser technology, allowing a more precise cut. The development and success of corneal tissue cultures are crucial to minimize the risk of rejection and greater independence of donations.
For the first time, those attending this meeting may attend a series of live, made from three hospitals and clinics in Rome. The surgeons were mostly Italian and some, among them, Dr. Jose Luis Güell, president-elect of the ESCRS.

Stop smoking and lose weight at the same time is possible with acupuncture
*
Numerous studies confirm the effectiveness of this ancient technique
in the fight against obesity and smoking
Christmas, by tradition, reflecting an increase in the number of dinners, meal, and generally of a higher intake of food and alcoholic beverages. Result: an increase in weight. The scale marks a kilo more to be lost but, yes, always so healthy. However, nobody likes to go hungry and it is difficult to reduce the amount of food from one day to another. If we add to this that many people use the quit date, which means weight gain, so in some cases quite significant, the question arises of how can you lose weight and quit smoking without causing the syndrome abstinence and without going hungry? Acupuncture is the answer.
For years, we know the harmful effects of snuff. Psychopharmacological properties of nicotine are similar to other psychostimulant drugs of abuse such as amphetamines and cocaine. Beltran says Dr. Carrillo, a doctor specializing in Geriatrics and Acupuncture bearing exercise such as during the past 15 years, these drugs cause excitement and stimulation of motor activity when administered to experimental animals and humans. "
Most of the wishes of smokers have quit smoking, they are all aware of the risk to their health, but many are afraid andalusia symptoms no longer be able to achieve, so continually postponing the time go by without definitive of snuff. Still, 60% of smokers tried to quit once but only between 3% and 5% of those who smoke and make attempts to quit, does it successfully. This low rate can be explained in part, according to Dr. Carrillo, "the fact that most attempts abandoned performed without assistance, based on strength of will."
Thus, any time is ideal for stop smoking, even at the risk of increasing kilos more, because the benefits are greater. However, it need not happen this weight gain is more, you can lose weight if it removes the anxiety that causes the symptoms and if you start a diet with a tool to prevent starvation, besides conducting some form of exercise.
In this sense, it is noteworthy that obesity is a problem concerning the energy balance, ie, it is that these people consume more energy than they consume, leading to an increase in body fat and therefore weight. Moreover, the fact that there are increasing numbers of obese adults in the child like.
Hence the importance of losing more pounds when they are not yet alarming, that goes without saying the need to lose it when they are, because, apart from the aesthetic and social problem that can cause depression and even reaches result in suicidal tendencies, is a frequent cause of vascular disease, including coronary heart disease, stroke and hypertension. It may also lead to the emergence of type 2 diabetes, the incidence of which, according to Dr. Carrillo Beltran, "has increased significantly over the past 30 years increased the risk of blindness, kidney disease, heart failure, stroke and death." Also, excess weight is associated with the development of many cancers and the increased and more rapid degeneration of the joints.
How to quit smoking and lose weight without anxiety and without starving?
Acupuncture is being used with increasing frequency to treat problems related to drug dependency, which is the snuff. In the early 70s, and began to study the effects that this technique was beneficial in relieving symptoms associated with opioid dependence. It soon began to publish results of treatments for detoxification of snuff from different areas. In this regard, stresses the review in early 80s, over 10,000 patients and included 84 publications. In it, acupuncture was positive in 60% of cases. These figures are kept in different descriptive studies conducted since then.
In this regard, said Dr. Carrillo Beltran, "the results of acupuncture are as effective as other methods, but with fewer side effects." He adds that according to his clinical experience, "the effects of this technique are more effective, leading more often, the smoker is indifferent with respect to snuff and you reach the desired result in less time." That is, a smoker can quit with only three sessions of acupuncture.
Abandonment of this unit, helps to maintain a balanced diet, nutritious and adequate calories for the proper functioning of the body. Therefore, it is a good time to slim down, thus avoiding the weight gain that occurs when you quit. To do this, you need to make a lower energy intake to allow the loss of fat, which must also be reconciled with the social life of the individual, educate them to alter their patterns of feeding and hunger that will not fit.
In this aspect, which shows its effectiveness Acupuncture. A prerequisite to follow a hypocaloric diet long enough to reach the desired weight is that the person is still mastering his desire to eat. As Dr. Carrillo says, "if on a diet to lose weight, the patient goes hungry, has poor concentration, moodiness, ... you will most likely abandon the treatment before reaching the target. The diet is lose weight, but have no effect on appetite suppressant. "
The mechanisms by which acupuncture achieved suppress appetite are based on changes in neuronal activity of the hypothalamus, which increases the feeling of satiety, and increased levels of serotonin, which is involved in the control of eating behavior and body weight in the central nervous system. This stimulating neurotransmitters (monoamine), reduces food intake, increases energy expenditure and increases intestinal motility.
Ultimately, according to Dr. Carrillo: "Acupuncture is a painless, non-traumatic, with no side effects, and effective and efficient to keep the addicted to nicotine indifferent with respect to snuff, especially in smokers motivated to quit this harmful dependency. And it also gets the best results in thinning regimes to suppress the appetite. "
About Dr. Carrillo Beltran

The Tempura-Pedic mattresses Inc. help reduce sleep disturbances in patients with Alzheimer's.
*
Minimizing these alterations could address the family caring for the sick in their own homes, without having to go to specialized centers.
TEMPUR-Pedic International, Inc., a global leader in the manufacture and distribution of mattresses and pillows viscoelastic material of high-end, reported the results of a recent study focusing on older people, most of them suffering from Alzheimer's or dementia senile, which concludes with a general demonstration of improvement after sleeping on a mattress in the range Tempura.
The study, drawn from random samples, controlled and ordered by Tempura-Pedic Medical Inc., headed by a leading research universities in the United States has used the tools ABID (a scientific scale to assess the reactions restless behavior in dementia) and disorders of sleep Inventory Cohen-Mansfield (CMAI) to compare the levels of disturbance between two groups of elderly residents with clinical diagnosis of mild to severe Alzheimer's. The elderly who had rested on Tempura-Pedic mattresses showed a greater reduction in levels of disturbance than those who did so on other products of viscoelastic material.
In its conclusions, the researchers suggested that, in addition to usual medical treatment, environmental factors such as the use of Tempura-Pedic mattresses, they can offer an additional benefit to patients with Alzheimer's considerable reduction of the disturbance of sleep occurs. These results were presented at a recent Conference on Gerontology and important to be explained and taken into account by the medical scientific community. According to the Alzheimer's Patient, symptoms such as disturbance or sleep disturbance are among the most characteristic of the disease and are factors definitive to decide on the fate of a loved one is to care for a residential service .
"Patients who had slept in randomly Tempura-Pedic mattress rested on a more comfortable and were less likely to wake up at midnight or restless during the day," said Paul Coulis, President of Tempura-Pedic Medical Inc. "These results are particularly significant when one considers that the mere act of using this product can be assumed that a family care in their own home for a loved one suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Have fewer problems in this type of behavior can delay or even eliminate the need to join someone in a nursing home or other institution. "
The Tempura-Pedic beds are temperature sensitive, breathable and viscoelastic material. These properties allow the material to remain firm and strong where it needs to be soft where you need to create a setting for each individual person. Using the weight and heat to distribute pressure over the entire surface, the bed automatically adjusts to the body, providing support for an entire night of rest.

AIDS drug in Thailand for 92 cents
Thailand's government, people with HIV-AIDS virus drug will be distributed.
Virus carriers in the hospital only after October 30 chance, so this drug for approximately 92 new Turkish Kuruş may receive.
Ministry of Health in Thailand made from 'a world first application' to be specified.
Within the framework of a pilot implementation earlier, a low income level of about 50 thousand people in Thailand, AIDS drugs were distributed freely.
Our correspondent, Tony Cheng Bangkok, Thailand in the past in the direction of the treatment of AIDS disease in the study, says to use a series of mixtures of drugs.
Tony Cheng, a lot of the cost of these drugs indicate that it is distributed.
Companies under the government of Thailand, a number of drugs in one pill after collection, easy and inexpensive treatment of the illness seems to become possible.
Of the first AIDS patients identified in the country after 1984, nearly a million people and the disease is spread about half of which is believed dead.
HIV in Thailand, approximately 500 thousand people are thought to carry the new, are expected to use drugs.
In neighboring countries such as Cambodia is still exporting drugs from Thailand.
Thailand's government, pharmaceutical technology, in some African countries are also assessed to help.

Against radiation medicine
U.S. scientists body a drug that can protect against the harmful effects of radiation were found unveiled.
The drugs, the cancer patients for radiotherapy may make it more secure, but also the dirty bomb attack and a nuclear disaster in ways we can use.
We tried on until the animal is named CBLB502 drug, with the effects of radiation kill healthy cells to avoid running a biological mechanism.
Radiation, cause damage to cells is called apoptosis leads to cell suicide.
However, in the process of tumor cells with healthy cells can also kill.
Research published in Science magazine, scientists of drugs, some cancer cells to radiotherapy by examining how they have developed resistance.
Drug, the protein prevents cell suicide trigger.
According to experiments on animals the bone marrow and digestive system CBLB502 protects healthy cells.
However, the target received radiation therapy with tumor cells does not seem to protect.
Between 45 minutes to 24 hours has been given medication normally be exposed to lethal levels of radiation in mice and monkeys, the animals are given drugs to stay alive, or are living longer than expected.
To block cell death is a risk, be allowed to live in damaged cells and cancer cells and then converted to their probability.
No adverse effects identified
However, the researchers, their experiments on mice with such a side effect, says not found.
Protection against the effects of radiation on healthy cells, cancer patients at higher doses and long-term treatment may provide the vision.
Medication use in future clinical trials with the b-plan.
Lerner Research Institute in the city of Cleveland doctor Andrey Gudkov "to summarize the effect of reduced tumor without radiation CBLB502, is rasping negative aspects," he said.
Cancer Research UK Doctor Joanna Owens from his organization, the drug has reached interesting results and planned clinical trials of medicines in progress wait to hear you said.
Owens "the results of this laboratory study can be applied to cancer patients, these side effects of radiotherapy to reduce the person may be an important step," he said.

'Smart drugs' end the side effects
Patients complain that most of the side effects of drug use problems, while the "smart drug" is being brought through the solution.
SIDE EFFECTS LOWER CELL will be the target diseased
Turkish Society of Biochemistry Professor. Dr. Nazmi Özer, a treatment intended to target only diseased molecules smart drugs, will begin within 2-3 years said:
"If a disease is going to the liver or liver in the drug only in the brain goes to the brain. To mail a letter as if you like, as if to have me on the address specific to the tissue and put on some features of utricle behave like this address, the tissue is going to that. As a result, very low doses that prevent people who are victims of disease. "
"Will be used in numerous diseases such as CANCER"
Özer, especially for cancer, these drugs will be used in many diseases, thanks to the body of drugs given to prevent the damage, the more effective treatment with fewer doses are indicated to the right.
Will be held in Istanbul from 24-29 June 2006 a congress of the international study of smart drugs on the table tells yarıtılacağını Özer, pharmaceutical faculties in Turkey work in this direction was made last.
