You might object to all this on ethical grounds. But at least in some industrialized countries you would be in a distinct minority.
The 85% abortion rate for Downs fetuses in Paris is amazing for 2 reasons. First off, it implies that at very least 85% of all pregnancies in Paris get genetically tested for abnormalities. This is happening even though the number of genetic defects currently detectable by embryo testing is still pretty low. Second, the overwhelming number of women informed of a Downs fetus elect to abort.
This willingness to test at such a high rate and to act on the information suggests that once a much larger number of genetic defects and variations are detectable in embryos selective abortion will be used to greatly speed up human evolution. That speed-up is going to take place in the 2010s as the meaning of many more genetic variations becomes known every year.
As advances in genetic research leads to the identification and easy testing for a much larger number of defects and features this will change popular views on selective abortion. As more people can see a personal benefit (getting children closer to your ideal) from selective abortion more will decide it is not such a bad thing after all. Mind you, I'm not arguing that sort of reasoning is correct or incorrect. It is just that when people see a personal benefit from a choice they tend to look at that choice in a different light.
The vast bulk of the Downs babies avoided above are done via abortion of pregnancies which were initiated by conventional sexual intercourse. But once it becomes possible to test embryos for a large number of genetic defects and features then the focus of selection will shift to choosing between embryos created via in vitro fertilization (IVF). Why? IVF will provide many more embryos to select among. Rather than doing thumbs up or thumbs down on just a single embryo in a woman IVF can produce one or two dozen embryos. This will greatly increase the odds that prospective parents can find an embryo that combines the most desired genetic features of both parents.
So first comes the discovery of the functional significance of large numbers (tens or hundreds of thousands) of genetic variations. Then comes the shift to IVF to allow selection between a much bigger set of choices.
The third step after IVF embryo selection will involve development of ways to go thru much larger numbers of combinations of each parent's chromosomes before fertilization to get just the combination of parental genetic contributions that is most desired. Highly automated methods of predicting or measuring the genetic sequences in a sperm or egg will allow sorting thru large numbers of sperm or eggs (which could be generated from adult cells in a lab) to identify the most deal sperm to fertilize into the most ideal egg.
After that comes gene therapy to provide offspring with some genetic sequences that neither parent has.
As more biotechnology comes along to provide more powerful ways to choose genetic endowment for offspring I expect most will embrace this biotechnology and the human race's evolution will speed up by orders of magnitude more than the huge evolution acceleration of the last 10,000 years.

A year and a half ago I was diagnosed with neck cancer squamous cell carcinoma. By the time I went under the knife six months later (I’ll save my medical horror story for another time) my surgeon told me that not only was the disease at stage 4, but that if I didn’t undergo radiation and chemotherapy, I’d be dead in a year. Well guess what? Not only did I not follow the doctor’s orders, but I’m alive, well, and fit to be tied. So I thought I’d share my experience with others so they don’t have to learn the hard way like I did. What happened to me, could happen to anyone.

The Emmy award winning The Colbert Report goes where no television show has ever gone before – Iraq. Though that statement maybe far fetched, indeed Stephen Colbert’s show has become the first show in USO history to produce a week of shows in a combat zone.

Benefits who?
• Americans have better survival rates than Europeans for common cancers. Breast cancer mortality: 52% higher in Germany and 88% higher in the United Kingdom than in the U.S. Prostate cancer mortality: 604% higher in the U.K., 457% higher in Norway. Colo-rectal cancer mortality: 40% higher among Britons.
• Americans have lower cancer mortality rates than Canadians. Rates for breast cancer (9%), prostate cancer (184%) and colon cancer among men (10%) are higher than in the U.S.
• Americans have better access to treatment of chronic diseases than patients in other developed countries. Roughly 56% of Americans who could benefit are taking statin drugs. Only 36% of the Dutch, 29% of the Swiss, 26% of Germans, 23% of Britons and 17% of Italians who could benefit receive them.
• Americans have better access to preventive cancer screenings than Canadians. Nine of 10 middle-aged American women have had a mammogram; 72% of Canadian women have. Almost every American woman (96%) has had a pap smear; fewer than 90% of Canadian women have. Roughly 54% of American men have had a prostate cancer test; fewer than one in six Canadian men have. Almost a third of Americans (30%) have had a colonoscopy; only 5% of Canadians have had the procedure.
• Lower-income Americans are in better health than comparable Canadians. Nearly 12% of U.S. seniors with below-median incomes self-report being in health, while 5.8% of Canadian seniors say the same thing.
• Americans spend less time waiting for care than patients in Canada and the United Kingdom. Canadians and Britons wait about twice as long, sometimes more than a year, to see a specialist, have elective surgery or get radiation treatment.
• People in countries with more government control of health care are highly dissatisfied and believe reform is needed. More than seven in 10 Germans, Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders and Britons say their health systems need either fundamental change or complete rebuilding.
• Americans are more satisfied with the care they receive than Canadians. More than half (51.3%) of Americans are very satisfied with their health care services, while 41.5% of Canadians hold the same view of their system.
• Americans have much better access to important new technologies like medical imaging than patients in Canada or the U.K. There are 34 CT scanners per million Americans. There are 12 per million in Canada and eight per million in Britain. The U.S. has nearly 27 MRI machines per million. Britain and Canada have 6 per million.
• Americans are responsible for the vast majority of all health care innovations. The top five U.S. hospitals conduct more clinical trials than all the hospitals in any other single developed nation; the most important recent medical innovations were developed here.
Can the nationalized, universal systems in Britain, Canada or anywhere else improve on this? No, but we can ruin our health care by following the policies of countries where medical treatment is far below the American standard.

Many say our infant mortality rate is high because of drugs or alcohol, which may not be as prevalent in poorer countries. Life expectancy in places where people preform physical labor and do not indulge in fatty foods may be higher. Do you want to become a rice farmer and eat a small diet of vegetables? Health care is NOT what is making those people live longer. In fact, with socialized care as you age you get just enough treatment rather than what you really need. i.e. Grandpa gets Plavix rather than the by-pass he really needs. You are old, die already, is the message.
Does it make sense to improve these TWO statistics while TWENTY others go down. Absolutely not.

A group of Caltech undergrads has proposed an innovative plan to reduce energy consumption on campus. In what started as a term project to analyze a new technology for Professor Ken Pickars Management of Technology course, the Caltech Behavior Energy Initiative discovered solutions for reducing the expenditure of energy in the student Houses. On June 8, the group presented a report to representatives from Caltech Housing, the Greenhouse Reduction Committee, and the undergraduate community. Their findings could help Caltech reach its goal of reducing campus energy consumption by 15 percent.The first part of the proposal involves using energy monitoring devices in the student Houses; the devices are installed inside circuit-breaker boxes and use Web-based software that can be accessed to recover real-time feedback on energy usage and analyzable tables on a room-by-room basis. The second element of the program is a reward system to incentivize undergraduates to be more aware of their usage and to change their habits.

What do ties, going to Church and hand washing have in common? The simple answer is people!
I was reading in a national paper the other day about the very real threat in the community from a bug known as Community Acquired MRSA, or CA-MRSA as its known to the boffins. As you may gather from its name, this differs from the hospital based super bugs in so far as its out there in the community. Its one of the Golden Staph family of bugs that in the normal run of events, is a harmless commensal on our skin: often found living in the nose of all places! But due to the advent of antibiotics which have threatened their existence, these bugs have developed resistance to antibiotics to such an extent, that some are resistant to all but the most powerful of our pharmaceutical weaponry: and one or two, in fact, are resistant to them all! The nasty community acquired one mentioned in the newspaper article, produces a toxin which can be rapidly fatal even in people who were previously fit and well: this is not good news!

Today I read in a local paper of a push in some countries to ban Doctors from wearing ties as they are a real hazard in the hospital setting for the spread of infections, as germs apparently take up residence on gents ties, and can then drop off onto patients as the doctor leans over to examine them. I would like to claim that for many years I wore a bow tie for that reason: and in fact I found that not wearing a tie was a great boon when doing minor procedures such as stitching people up, as bow ties are very well behaved staying nicely tucked under ones chin, whereas ties have the knack of swooping down in the direction of the wound in mid-flight whilst inserting sutures!

Over the Easter holiday I have attended many of the Church services which I find very poignant as they deal with suffering, loss, death and hope: all of which are at the heart of medical practice. As is usual at this time of year, the Churches are packed to the rafters with frail old, amped up infants and all the in betweens. At times of quiet solemnity, there are the coughs and sneezes which reminds me that not everyone who attends Church is necessarily in peak condition, and that if Easter was in the middle of the Flu season then it would be an ideal time for the flu virus to spread round a community of several hundred in a few minutes: and in some cases with fatal consequences. I mention the Church because of the crowds, but this could equally apply to the local derby footy match, or the winter sales at the big shopping centres, or on the train in the rush hour.

What it all boils down to is good personal hygiene for ourselves, and for our children who have yet to reach the age of reason. If we, or someone in our family, have a contagious illness, then it behooves us to practice good personal hygiene:
Cover the nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing.
Sneeze or cough into the crook of your elbow, as you will be using your hands to touch things and thereby can pass on infection with hands.
Wash your hands frequently, especially after touching your nose or face, as this is where infectious germs tend to hang out.
If youre feeling unwell, just imagine what your infection may do to someone who has heart disease, is on drugs for cancer treatment, or has recently had a kidney transplant and is on powerful immuno-suppressants; because these people ARE at Church, are at shopping centres, are on the train and at footy matches and they dont carry big signs saying m vulnerable: stay away from me!!

We, as individuals, live in community, but we must all understand that we have a huge community of germs living on and in our bodies, and by our actions we can pass these germs on to others. Thankfully, the vast majority of these germs are friendly, but sometimes they are not and like the vulnerable, they dont carry signs, so its impossible to know if theyre harmless or deadly.

What is Accutane?
Accutane is a form of vitamin A. It reduces the amount of oil released by oil glands in your skin, and helps your skin renew itself more quickly.
Accutane is used to treat severe nodular acne. It is usually given after other acne medicines or antibiotics have been tried without successful treatment of symptoms.
Accutane may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
What is the most important information I should know about Accutane?
Accutane can cause severe, life-threatening birth defects if the mother takes the medication during pregnancy. Even one dose of Accutane can cause major birth defects of the babys ears, eyes, face, skull, heart, and brain. Never use Accutane if you are pregnant.
Women of child-bearing potential must agree in writing to use two specific forms of birth control and have regular pregnancy tests before, during, and after taking Accutane. Unless you have had a total hysterectomy or have been in menopause for at least a year, you are considered to be of child-bearing potential.
Accutane is available only under a special program called iPLEDGE. You must be registered in the program and sign agreements to use birth control and undergo pregnancy testing as required by the program. Read all program brochures and agreements carefully.
It is dangerous to try and purchase Accutane on the Internet or from vendors outside of the United States. The sale and distribution of Accutane outside of the iPLEDGE program violates the regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the safe use of this medication.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking Accutane?
Accutane is available only under a special program called iPLEDGE. You must be registered in the program and sign documents stating that you understand the dangers of this medication and that you agree to use birth control as required by the program. Read all of the iPLEDGE program brochures and agreements carefully. Ask your doctor or call the drug maker if you have questions about the program or the written requirements.
It is dangerous to try and purchase Accutane on the Internet or from vendors outside of the United States. The sale and distribution of Accutane outside of the iPLEDGE program violates the regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the safe use of this medication.
Do not use this medication if you are allergic to Accutane or to parabens, or if you are pregnant or may become pregnant.
Before taking Accutane, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any foods or drugs, or if you have:
- a personal or family history of depression or mental illness;
- heart diease, high cholesterol or triglycerides;
- osteoporosis or other bone disorders;
- diabetes;
- asthma;
- an eating disroder (anorexia nervosa);
- or liver disease.
If you have any of these conditions, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely take Accutane.
Accutane can cause severe, life-threatening birth defects if the mother takes the medication during pregnancy. Even one dose of Accutane can cause major birth defects of the babys ears, eyes, face, skull, heart, and brain. Never use Accutane if you are pregnant.
For Women: Unless you have had your uterus and ovaries removed (total hysterectomy) or have been in menopause for at least 12 months in a row, you are considered to be of child-bearing potential.
Even women who have had their tubes tied are required to use birth control while taking Accutane.
You must have a negative pregnancy test 30 days before you start taking Accutane. A pregnancy test is also required before each prescription is refilled, right after you take your last dose of Accutane, and again 30 days later. All pregnancy testing is required by the iPLEDGE program.
You must agree in writing to use two specific forms of birth control beginning 30 days before you start taking Accutane and ending 30 days after you stop taking it. Both a primary and a secondary form of birth control must be used together.
Primary forms of birth control include:
- tubal ligation (tubes tied);
- vasectomy of the male sexual partner;
- an IUD (intrauterine device);
- estrogen-containing birth control pills (not mini-pills);
- and hormonal birth control patches, implants, injections, or vaginal ring.
Secondary forms of birth control include:
- a male latex condom plus spermicidal foam or gel;
- a diaphragm plus spermicidal foam or gel;
- a cervical cap plus spermicidal foam or gel; and
- a vaginal sponge containing spermicide.
Do not take St. Johns wort, an herbal supplement, if you are using any type of hormonal birth control, including pills, patches, implants, injections, or a vaginal ring. Breakthrough bleeding may occur.
Stop using Accutane and call your doctor at once if you have unprotected sex, if you quit using birth control, if your period is late, or if you think you might be pregnant.
It is not known whether Accutane passes into breast milk. Do not take Accutane without first talking to your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

According to various press reports, Farrah Fawcett, the former "Charlie's Angels" star, has been hospitalized for complications related to her ongoing treatment for anal cancer. Her public battle with anal cancer and commensurate media coverage of the actress provide an opportunity to educate the public about this relatively rare cancer. Because of its anatomical location and its risk factors, many people are uncomfortable talking about anal cancer.

Farrah Fawcett has been fighting anal cancer since 2006 and the cancer has apparently spread to her liver. However, contrary to initial news reports, she is not terminally ill at this time and is expected to be discharged in a few days.

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) estimates that there were 5,070 new cases of anal cancer in the United States in 2008 with 680 deaths.

There is a need for a better test and a better way to determine which men need aggressive treatment and which men need only monitoring
One study suggests that a simple urine test could pick out 50 percent of men with prostate cancer. The research team developed a urine test that can identify particular gene fusions associated with prostate cancer. The gene fusions involve the TMPRSS2 gene and the ERG gene. This particular fusion is found in about 50 percent of men with prostate cancer and can be identified in urine. The urine test also showed that it correlated well with other measures of gauging the aggressiveness of prostate cancer
Another study says that combining risk factors for prostate cancer may help predict the likelihood of developing the disease. Dutch researchers used PSA readings, a family history of prostate cancer, the size of the prostate, and a previous negative biopsy to create a chart to predict the risk of developing prostate cancer.
According to their findings, PSA is still the most significant predictor, but there are other factors that also contribute risk. Men whose PSA levels were 1.5 nanograms per milliliter were seven times more likely to develop prostate cancer than men with a lower PSA. A family history of prostate cancer will increase the risk of the disease, as will having a small prostate. But if you have had a negative prostate biopsy, your risk decreases. As a final conclusion, Duch team recommends men who have higher risk factors may need more frequent screening.

Lip reading is a critical means of communication for many deaf people, but it has a drawback: Certain consonants (for example, p and b) can be nearly impossible to distinguish by sight alone.
Tactile devices, which translate sound waves into vibrations that can be felt by the skin, can help overcome that obstacle by conveying nuances of speech that can't be gleaned from lip reading.

In the battle against breast cancer, patients are increasingly prescribed oral medications, such as hormonal therapy, to limit the risk of disease recurrence. Research has indicated that patients should stay on these drugs for five years to gain maximum benefits.
But recently, the healthcare community has started to ask a question once limited to managing common colds, not cancer: Do breast cancer patients take their medications as prescribed?
According to the American Cancer Society, more than 200,000 new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed every year in the U.S. Of those, approximately 100,000 have cancer types that are likely to respond to hormonal therapy. Taking the therapy as prescribed for the full five years can reduce their risk of recurrence.
Easier Said than Done
Based on findings from a recent symposium on medication adherence among breast cancer patients, candidates for hormonal therapy-some 500,000 women in the U.S.-may not be reaping the full benefits of their drug regimens. According to some research studies, non-compliance rates have reached as high as 40 percent.
The Symposium, called the Compliance Strategic Initiative (CSI), addressed issues that lead to medication non-compliance among breast cancer patients, and it identified possible solutions to these issues. Representatives from leading patient advocacy organizations and professional healthcare associations, as well as oncology experts and survivors from across the nation, gathered to share their perspectives. The CSI was led by a Steering Committee which included representatives from the American Cancer Society, CancerCare, the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP), and Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization.
"Through research, we know that five years of adjuvant hormonal therapy in women with estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer prolongs survival and reduces recurrence," said D. Lawrence Wickerham, MD, associate chairman of the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project. "And yet, studies also show that not all patients stay on hormonal therapy as prescribed. It is important that healthcare providers understand why women make that decision, so we can address the issue with the information, resources and support needed to help them through this part of their treatment."
Based on results of the meeting, participants gained a better understanding of the factors that contributed to non-compliance. Among those factors: patients often do not feel empowered to talk with their doctors about tough issues, such as side effects; doctors and other healthcare professionals aren't equipped with resources to assist patients in coping with or eliminating side effects; and after their acute phase of treatment, women may often feel they are left to manage therapy on their own. Physicians are under increasing pressures of time and performance and may not always have the skill set to listen well to their patients, or, simply not realize their patients may not be taking their medication. These factors combine to create communication gaps through which compliance issues can fall.
In conclusion, breast oncology advocates and experts who attended the symposium agreed that patient support mechanisms can and must be improved. Healthcare providers and patients each play pivotal roles. Through education and communication, they can begin to take the steps that will help some breast cancer patients reduce their risk of recurrence.
Two in five breast cancer patients don't take their medication properly.

Looking for hip baby clothes for your baby to wear is one of the joys of parenthood.
Over the years, parents have got this down to a fine art, finding and selecting cute baby clothes and making it seem that every day is Halloween for their little ones. There are lots of parents that like to dress their sons as football players and their daughters as princesses, even if they dont actually dress their baby in scary Halloween outfits. Some parents love finding cool baby clothes Its almost as if the parents start to relive a second childhood through their infants and just want to play dress-up.
And thats OK really. It is a fun thing about having a child.
The Santa Suit Every season stores are full of small santa dresses and Father Christmas romper suits. These only have a limited season but it seems for parents its worth the expense just to see your baby dressed up like a Santa once a year. Elf outfits, snowmen suits and Rudolph costumes are some other choices for cute baby clothes for the holiday season!
The Sailor People love sailors and ships, though, and have been placing their baby boys in naval inspired clothes over the generations for hundreds of years. The reasons arent very clear but it seems that every grown man comes across pictures of himself as a youngster in a sailor suit at one time or another.
The Sports Star. Every Dad imagines his son raising a trophy to the cheers of spectators at a sports stadium. Men whove never personally had an inclination to play sports themselves, seem to want to see their sons on the field. Its the only way to explain the popularity of infant boys sports outfits.These are more common than the sailor suits and can be bought from sport fans shops all over.While your baby boy might not be a winner yet, a soccer baby kit can inspire your dreams that he will some day play professional soccer. These come in official versions licensed by clubs and generic versions that just share some team colors.
The Baby Princess. Even little baby girls dont avoid the dress-up play imposed by their parents, but are dressed in more old-fashioned items like frilly dresses, white tights, and little patent leather shoes.Their mothers may imagine them to be fairies or princesses, but mostly just do their best to make them look gorgeous.
Since every baby I have seen are very beautiful and really so cute, the only thing more beautiful than the average baby is your baby.
