MONTREAL, Oct. 19, 2013 /CNW/ - Here are summaries of today's press releases featuring research presented today at Vascular 2013 in Montreal.
Cutting-edge genetic testing identifies inherited risk for enlarged heart Genetic blueprinting isolates the key mutations responsible for hereditary dilated cardiomyopathy
A study presented today at the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress has identified the genetic mutations that account for a significant proportion of cases of familial dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a disease affecting thousands of Canadians.
Presented at the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress.

COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY: Paramedics' weekly drop-in sessions at seniors complex result in fewer EMS calls and saves on costly emergency room visits Community health awareness delivered by paramedics leads to 32% reduction in EMS calls
Emergency Medical Service (EMS) staff are accustomed to responding to emergencies. A study presented today at the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress finds they may be able to prevent many emergencies as well, judging by the preliminary success of a pilot project at a Hamilton building for seniors.
Ontario Stroke System saves hundreds of lives, thousands of hospitalizations, hundreds of millions of dollars Collaboration of regional stroke networks delivers huge gains in lives saved, reduced hospitalizations, reduced costs and improved outcomes
The collaboration of regional stroke networks across Ontario has led to 16,000 fewer hospitalizations, 1,500 fewer in-hospital deaths, and cost-savings of almost $600 million in an eight-year period, according to a study presented today at the Canadian Stroke Congress.
Presented at the Canadian Stroke Congress.
2013 Clinical Practice Guidelines: Tips and Tools to Help You Help Your Patients with Diabetes The internationally acclaimed 2013 Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Prevention and Management of Diabetes in Canada (Guidelines) sets the gold standard in diabetes care and management. However, this 212-page, 38 chapter, evidence-based resource has little value to people living with diabetes if health care teams aren't translating the findings into improved care. Attendees will learn about the five major Guidelines themes and what tools are available to support health care providers in their own clinics and patient treatment plans.
Presented at the 16th Annual Canadian Diabetes Association/Canadian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism Professional Conference and Annual Meetings
My Big, Fat Diet: Carbohydrate Restriction in the Management of Type 2 Diabetes and Related Conditions The obesity and type 2 diabetes epidemics have been health topics of interest worldwide over the last few years. Prevention measures based on the conventional theory that these epidemics are related to excess calories have failed. Vancouver's Dr. Jay Wortman and Alberta's Dr. David Lau will debate the effectiveness of carbohydrate restriction for the management of conditions related to insulin resistance. This session explores carbohydrate restriction as a viable therapy for conditions such as type 2 diabetes and how it should be a first-line therapy.
The P.O.W.E.R. Trial: Physical Activity for Overweight Youth at Risk for Type 2 Diabetes Little data exists to describe the role of physical activity in the prevention of type 2 diabetes in children. Completed January 2013, this community-based exercise trial examined the effects of high versus low intensity exercise training on several risk factors for type 2 diabetes, including liver fat, insulin sensitivity and metabolic syndrome. Winnipeg-based clinicians will review outcomes from this important trial study.
Vascular 2013 is a unique, one-time Canadian event bringing four separate scientific meetings together under one roof: the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress, the Canadian Diabetes Association/Canadian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism Professional Conference, the Canadian Stroke Congress and the Canadian Hypertension Congress. www.vascular2013.ca

Turbine plan withdrawn over aircraft danger fears
4:54pm Friday 19th October 2012 in News By Joe Willis, Regional Chief Reporter
CONTROVERSIAL plans for a wind turbine have been withdrawn following concerns by the Ministry of Defence and airport bosses.
Campaigners say they are pleased, but will remain vigilant after the application for a 67-metre tall wind turbine near Eppleby, between Richmond and Darlington, was cancelled by the applicant.
The decision was taken after objections were received by the Ministry of Defence (MoD), which said the turbine would interfere with the radar at RAF Leeming.
A further objection was submitted by Durham Tees Valley Airport.
Airport chiefs said the turbine's blades would cause "clutter" on its radar, which could be mistaken for aircraft.
Peter Nears, strategy planning director at the airport, said the turbine would be "seriously compromise" safety.
Planning officers told the applicants the scheme would be rejected unless they could reach agreement with the airport and MoD about their concerns.
About 60 members of the public also raised concerns with Richmondshire District Council about the scheme.
Stephen Eastham, who led a campaign against the turbine, welcomed the applicant's decision to withdraw the proposal.
He said: "We're pleased, but we will remain vigilant that someone won't come and submit something similar in the future.
"This doesn't mean these people won't come back with an alternative plan to put up smaller turbines."
District councillor Mick Griffiths said the outcome was an example of "local democracy in the planning system working at its best".
He said: "Residents put their concerns forward through the planning process and as a result the application has been withdrawn. I'm grateful to the 130 local people who attended a meeting purely to discuss the application."
The application for a single 500kw turbine was submitted by Paula Scott, from Barnard Castle. However, the land is owned by farmer James Milbank, from Dalton, near Richmond.
The application was withdrawn this week by the applicant's agents, Harrogate-based Carter Jones.
Andy Lowe, from Carter Jones, said: "It's been withdrawn for aviation reasons after concerns were raised that it would interfere with nearby radar."
Mr Lowe said the company was in discussion with the MoD and DTVA, but no decision had been taken on whether the application would be resubmitted.

Grant Abstract
Grant Number:
PI Name: Andrew Avins
Project Title: Phytotherapy for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Abstract: DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The use of herbal extracts for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is growing rapidly in the United States. Numerous small clinical studies, carried out primarily in Europe, suggest that some of these extracts have great potential for providing relief of symptoms and, possibly, altering the natural course of BPH. The size and quality of prior studies, however, make it impossible to provide firm evidence-based recommendations to patients; the need for higher-quality, longer-term studies is compelling. This proposal describes plans to establish a Clinical Evaluation and Treatment Center in response to RFA # DK-02-026. We plan to bring the substantial patient population and scientific resources of the Northern California Kaiser-Permanente (NCKP) Division of Research (DOR) to support the successful completion of this important multicenter randomized clinical trial. While the final details of the research protocol will be established by the trial's Steering and Planning Committee, the approach described in this proposal is based on prior successful trials of BPH therapeutics and an ongoing NIH-funded randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of saw palmetto currently being conducted by our group. Participants will be recruited from five NCKP clinical facilities, which serve over 100,000 men aged 50 and older who are unlikely to meet exclusion criteria. Entry criteria include male participants at least 50 years old with an American Urological Association Symptom Index (AUASI) Score >7, no prior history of prostate cancer or prostate surgery, PSA below the age-adjusted upper limit (or PSA<10 with negative prostate biopsy), and creatinine<2.0mg/dl. Patients on current medical therapy will undergo a wash-out phase prior to final eligibility determination. Eligible patients will undergo a one-month single-blind run-in period; those demonstrating adequate adherence will be randomized in equal proportions to saw palmetto, pygeum, or placebo. Patients will be followed at four-month intervals for a period of four-to-six years. Primary endpoints are those specified in the RFA (acute urinary retention, BPH-related renal insufficiency, recurrent urinary tract infections, incontinence, and an increase of at least 4 points in the AUASI); secondary endpoints include symptom scores, uroflow measurements, and adverse effects. A systematic, multifaceted approach will be used to promote participant adherence to the study protocol.

Pakistan's high-profile chief justice retires
December 11, 2013 @ 4:09 am
ISLAMABAD (AP) - Pakistan's chief justice has stepped down after a high-profile career during which he was praised for protecting democracy but also criticized for judicial overreach.
Iftikhar Chaudhry marked the end of his term on Wednesday with a speech at the Supreme Court in the capital, Islamabad.
He was appointed chief justice in 2005 and attracted national prominence two years later, when he was sacked by then-President Pervez Musharraf. He was reinstated in 2009 after a protest movement led by the nation's lawyers.
Chaudhry leveraged his prominent position to pressure the government and military on issues such as corruption and illegal detentions. But critics accused him of wading into political areas outside of the judiciary's domain.
He will be replaced by the next most senior judge on the Supreme Court, Tassaduq Jillani.

Lithuania's Aidis Kruopis managed to avoid a crash that blocked part of the road on Monday (April 22) and outsprinted Marco Coledan to cross the line first to win the second stage of the Tour of Turkey.
Germany's Andre Greipel was involved in the pile-up, which occurred in the final mile of the track from Alanya to Antalya, but managed to finish high enough to take over as overall leader from compatriot Marcel Kittel.
Kruopis (Orica-Greenedge) was one of the few riders to evade the crash. Those on the left side of the road piled into each other but some of those on the right managed to ride past.
The Lithuanian is now third in the overall standings, behind Kittel, with Coledan fourth.

Many transformers look the same, so make sure that you are ordering by part number. If you need help, make sure you have the model number off of the unit you need parts for and then contact our parts counter using this form.
The most common reason a transformer fails is because of a "short" in the control circuit. Believe it or not, the most common reason for a short in split systems is damaged control wiring around the outdoor unit. Since low voltage control wiring is frequently not protected inside of a conduit, it can be easily damaged by weed eaters and pets. If a transformer has failed because of a short in the control circuit, the replacement transformer will also fail unless the short is found and repaired.

Spurs manager Andre Villas-Boas has made no secret of his desire to add Soldado to his ranks over the summer, but is yet to seal the deal.
The La Liga side are understood to be holding out for £25.8million, a fee that would trigger a release clause in the 28-year-old's contract.
Valencia coach Miroslav Djukic has already admitted he is resigned to losing Soldado though and Spurs remain favourites to land the coveted striker.
Soldado would become Tottenham's third summer signing if he does make the move to White Hart Lane.
Brazilian midfielder Paulinho was the first to arrive after he signed from Corinthians for £17million, while Belgian winger Nacer Chadli arrived from FC Twente for around £7million on 21 July.

HTC may back out of S3 buy after legal defeat
HTC is feeling a little buyer's remorse.
The Taiwanese smartphone manufacturer said today that it would reconsider its planned acquisition of S3 Graphics, according to Bloomberg.
The value of S3 is debatable after the U.S. International Trade Commission ruled Apple did not violate its patents and terminated the investigation, dealing HTC a critical blow. HTC had intended for S3's patents to provide it with some legal cover in its ongoing court battle with Apple over intellectual property related to features found in touchscreen smartphones.
"We view this as a negative sign for HTC, which will now … Read more

(3)To the ladies: Please feel free to join in the conversation, your respectful comments are appreciated. But this is not a place for venting about guys (you have the rest of babycenter for that), asking questions to get a guys take on things (there is Ask A Dude, linked in the related group) or debate various topics (there is the Debate Team for that).

For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to acetaminophen / diphenhydramine / phenylephrine: oral liquid, oral powder for reconstitution, oral syrup, oral tablet
Cardiovascular side effects of acetaminophen have included two cases of hypotension.
Cardiovascular side effects of diphenhydramine have included hypotension, tachycardia, and palpitations.
Cardiovascular side effects of phenylephrine have included palpitations, arrhythmias, and cardiovascular collapse with hypotension.
Two cases hypotension have been reported following the administration of acetaminophen. Both patients experienced significant decreases in blood pressure. One of the two patients required pressor agents to maintain adequate mean arterial pressures. Neither episode was associated with symptoms of anaphylaxis. Neither patient was rechallenged after resolution of the initial episode.
Dermatologic side effects have included erythematous skin rashes. Acetaminophen associated bullous erythema and purpura fulminans have also been reported.
Gastrointestinal side effects of acetaminophen have included rare cases of acute pancreatitis.
Gastrointestinal side effects of diphenhydramine have included nausea and dry mouth.
Gastrointestinal side effects of phenylephrine have included nausea.
One study has suggested that acetaminophen may precipitate acute biliary pain and cholestasis. The mechanism of this effect may be related to inhibition of prostaglandin and alterations in the regulation of the sphincter of Oddi.
Genitourinary side effects of diphenhydramine have included urinary retention and dysuria.
Genitourinary side effects of phenylephrine have included dysuria.
Hematologic side effects of acetaminophen have included rare cases of thrombocytopenia. Methemoglobinemia with resulting cyanosis has also been observed in the setting of acute overdose.
Hematologic side effects of diphenhydramine have rarely included hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and agranulocytosis.
Alcoholic patients may develop hepatotoxicity after even modest doses of acetaminophen. In healthy patients, approximately 15 grams of acetaminophen is necessary to deplete liver glutathione stores by 70% in a 70 kg person. However, hepatotoxicity has been reported following smaller doses. Glutathione concentrations may be repleted by the antidote N-acetylcysteine. One case report has suggested that hypothermia may also be beneficial in decreasing liver damage during overdose.
In a recent retrospective study of 306 patients admitted for acetaminophen overdose, 6.9% had severe liver injury but all recovered. None of the 306 patients died.
A 19 year old female developed hepatotoxicity, reactive plasmacytosis and agranulocytosis followed by a leukemoid reaction after acute acetaminophen toxicity.
Hepatic side effects of acetaminophen have included severe and sometimes fatal dose dependent hepatitis in alcoholic patients. Hepatotoxicity has been increased during fasting. Several cases of hepatotoxicity from chronic acetaminophen therapy at therapeutic doses have also been reported despite a lack of risk factors for toxicity.
Hypersensitivity side effects of acetaminophen have included rare reports of anaphylaxis and fixed drug eruptions.
Hypersensitivity side effects to diphenhydramine have included rash, pruritus and eczema. Photosensitivity reactions have also been reported.
Most commonly, hypersensitivity to diphenhydramine has manifested itself in patients receiving systemic drug after being sensitized to it by topical application. Sensitization with systemic administration has also been reported.
Nervous system
Nervous system side effects of diphenhydramine have included depression with drowsiness and sedation in nearly all patients treated. Motor skills may be impaired. Dystonic reactions have been reported after single doses of diphenhydramine.
Nervous system side effects of phenylephrine have included headache, dizziness, nervousness, restlessness, tremor, insomnia, convulsions, and central nervous system depression.
The CNS depressant effect of diphenhydramine parallels its plasma concentrations. The plasma concentration threshold for sedation is 30 to 42 ng/mL, and to cause mental impairment is 58 to 74 ng/mL. Patients should be warned against driving while taking diphenhydramine.
Dystonic reactions have been accompanied by dizziness, mental confusion, rigidity, lip and tongue protrusion, trismus, torticollis, and swallowing difficulties and generally resolve spontaneously. Toxic encephalopathy has been reported in a child with chicken pox treated generously with topical diphenhydramine.
Delirium has been reported in elderly patients with mild dementia following a small oral dose of diphenhydramine.
Renal side effects of acetaminophen have included acute tubular necrosis and interstitial nephritis. Adverse renal effects are most often observed after overdose, after chronic abuse (often with multiple analgesics), or in association with acetaminophen-related hepatotoxicity.
Acute tubular necrosis usually occurs in conjunction with liver failure, but has been observed as an isolated finding in rare cases. A possible increase in the risk of renal cell carcinoma has been associated with chronic acetaminophen use as well.
A recent case control study of patients with end-stage renal disease suggested that long term consumption of acetaminophen may significantly increase the risk of end-stage renal disease particularly in patients taking more than two pills per day.
Respiratory side effects of acetaminophen have included a case of eosinophilic pneumonia.
Respiratory side effects of phenylephrine have included respiratory difficulty.
Psychiatric side effects of phenylephrine have included hallucinations, fear, and anxiety.
General side effects of phenylephrine have included pallor and weakness.

Otago Daily Times
Browse by date within this newspaper
The discovery of gold in Gabriel's Gully in 1861 led to a huge increase in the population of Dunedin, going from fewer than 2,000 inhabitants to nearly 15,000 by the end of the 1860s. Julius Vogel (1835-1899) arrived in Dunedin in October 1861 and became editor of the weekly Otago Witness. Together with the Otago Witness publisher William Cutten, Vogel started up the Otago Daily Times. The first issue appeared on 15 November 1861, making it the first daily newspaper in New Zealand, and the one with the longest history of daily publication.

- " A very big hostel, about a 10 minute walk from Kings Cross Station. Price as alright, the room was decent, but had issues with the staff. The entire rooms key card stopped working, and my friend was forced to change rooms during the middle of the night. Was not please at all with the staff. "

- " Really cool atmosphere, I really liked the way they reused the old spaces and made them interesting. The free breakfast was pretty good. The bar is loud and a really good time and luckily the noise stays in the bar area so you can still get a good sleep. It's a little bit away from the city sites but the tube is really close so it's not hard to get to. Would for sure stay again. "

- " Bathrooms were immaculate, kitchen space was very large - though it should be for the huge number of people there. Beds were pretty nice, location was good - five minute walk from King's Cross station. Internet was intermittent and slow, though - it might be worth it to find Bisou cafe a block away and order a coffee for the free wifi. "

- " We very enjoyed our stay at clink. It was very nice!!! The kitchen, the bar and everything was very nice and perfect for a stay in london. I can recommend Clink to everyone who wants to have a good time and meet nice people. "

- " Never seen a hostel like this! Loved the place and the nightly activities! Lots of backpackers and good times! Beautiful on the outside and in "

- " Clink is one of its kind in London -- social and charismatic... You will be coming back again and again... They would reopen their diamond, the smoking room -- forcing smokers outside to cross a busy street is not that secure... "

We have been measuring and verifying our results with our utility partners since day one, and we've built an ever-expanding array of data that shows a simple and compelling conclusion: Opower works.
Behavioral energy efficiency is one of the most exciting new sources of large-scale energy savings: it's reliable, consistent, and cost-effective.
Overall energy savings are great, of course, but their timing is just as important. Opower program participants actually save the most energy during peak usage periods—a result that benefits both utilities and their customers.
One of the most satisfying outcomes we've seen across our programs is that energy efficient customers are happy customers. We've measured statistically significant increases in utility customer satisfaction as a direct result of Opower program participation.
Opower has become a favorite tool for energy efficiency directors and utility marketing teams alike. Customers exposed to the Opower platform are more likely to participate in other utility programs and promotions—making both marketing and energy efficiency departments happy.
