“Cupron” provides an easy and more economical way to women and men who want to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles, fines lines and liver, a new study done by ‘Cupron’ claims that. A four week clinical study shows that the copper ion based pillowcases have emerged as non-invasive alternative to painful cosmetic surgery and collagen injections.

Dr. Gadi Barkow, the chief medical scientist at ‘Cupron’ says that with the “Wrinkle Appearance Reducing Antimicrobial Pillowcases”, it reduces the appearance of the facial wrinkles, crow’s feet and fine lines. The customers who had been sleeping on these pillowcases for four weeks have provided with very positive feedback about these pillow cases.

These copper ion based pillowcases not only carry the cosmetic effects but also promise to protect against odor causing bacteria, fungi and other microbes. So this pillowcase currently brought in market by ‘Cupron’ has not only cosmetic appearance enhancing abilities, but also an ability to deodorize while they are used.

According to the popular notion, we credit the incidence of “Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)” to give rise to ‘female-to-male transsexuals’; however a new study suggests that there are higher levels of androgen among the ‘Female to Male Transsexuals’. This new study has tried to diagnose PCOS by doing assessment of female-to-male transsexuals on the updated methodology and data and they have also included the results of ‘Transvaginal Ultrasonography (TS)’ adopted for its first kind of evaluation done for female-to-male transsexuals.

‘Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)’ is a condition where there is misbalance of women hormones in the human body which generally initiates with upsetting of the periods in women, one hormonal change giving rise to another, and consequently producing more of androgens which are male sex hormones. This gives growth to extra facial and body hair, occurrence of acne and weight gain. If the symptoms are not treat at the early stage, it might along with these physical irregularities in a woman, may give rise to serious diseases like diabetes and heart diseases as it affects the release of insulin too in the body.

A recent research has provided much insight in to the process of brain development and effects of hormone deficiencies on this process. This research, concluded at the “Karolinska Institutet” revealed that during the stage of early pregnancy, deficiencies of the thyroid hormones could cause “locomotors under-development” in a child. ‘Routine Pregnancy Tests’ there fore must examine this issue in detail, say the researchers.”Hyperthyreosis” is a typical disease found in children who are born with deficiencies of the thyroid hormones. Such children’s are at great risk of ‘locomotors under-development’ and the ‘brain under-development’ if proper treatment at the right time is not given to these children.

Scientists are still exploring in to the exact reasons that are primarily responsible for such impacts of thyroid hormone deficiencies. Scientists are also focusing on to identify the level of attention that is required to be paid to women’s hormone levels when she is pregnant. It is worthwhile to note that all the new born babies in Sweden are necessarily tested for “Hyperthyreosis”. But this is not true with all the women at the same time.

In a recent study, the researchers tried to probe the relationship lying between mobile phone use and ‘malignant and non malignant parotid gland‘, also known as the ‘salivary gland’, tumors.

The study was carried out by Dr Siegal Sadetzki and colleagues from the ‘Chaim Sheba Medical Centre’; the Sackler School of Medicine at ‘Tel Aviv University’ in Israel and the ‘International Agency for Research on Cancer’ in Lyon, France. It was funded by the ‘European Commission Fifth Framework Program’, the ‘Union Internationale Contre le Cancer’, and a grant from the ‘Israel Cancer Association’.

In the study, a group of Jewish adults suffering from benign or cancerous parotid gland tumors (PGTs, which are tumors in the largest of the salivary glands) was compared to another group of Israeli adults, randomly selected from the ‘National Population Registry‘. They tried to derive the results on the basis of seven parameters which were matched to each of the adults with PGTs. The participants were interviewed on mobile phone usage, other possible risk factors and demographic variables.

Scientists have been conducting researches for a long time and now they have come up with sound evidences that the paternal exposure could be making serious impacts on the fetal and post-natal development of the offspring. It is more likely that such imprints will also be reflected in subsequent future generations as well.Until now the maternal exposure to several of the dangerous toxic agents during the period of pregnancy were the prime concerns for experts, scientists, and society at large.

The American Association for the Advancement of Science’ sponsored a multidisciplinary symposium recently. This symposium was focused on the concept of “Father and Fetus”. Scientists in this symposium presented many evidences that the reproductive success and post-natal development processes could be severely affected by the male-mediated influences and this may continue from one generation to another.

Millions of people suffer from the problem of over active bladder and lower urinary tract symptoms. These conditions put an adverse affect on quality of life and there are costs associated with the conditions.  The ‘International Continence Society (ICS)’ defines ‘Overactive bladder (OAB)’ as urgency, with or without urgency incontinence, usually with frequency and nocturia, in the absence of infection, or other obvious pathology.

Among the above symptoms as enumerated by ICS, urgency is the most serious implication of this condition. It is defined by ICS as a sudden, compelling, difficult-to-defer desire to pass urine. It leads to other symptoms of OAB like frequency, nocturia and sometimes incontinence except in the case of patients with absent bladder sensation. The experience of urgency puts the greatest negative effect on quality of life than any of the other symptoms associated with OAB.
