Hemorrhoidal disease is a common pathology in patients with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). We describe our experience with the primary approach to this problem at the Proctology Division of the Sheba Medical Center. We treated 29 patients (26 men) with paraplegia due to SCI between 1995 and 1999. The mean age was 49 years (range, 22-74 years). All patients had hemorrhoids in stages ranging between II and IV. Main complaints were rectal bleeding (83%), difficulties in evacuation (38%) and discomfort or pain (28%). Eleven patients (38%) were treated conservatively (e. g. diet, hygiene and laxatives), while 18 patients (62%) underwent either banding or sclerotherapy of hemorrhoids or both. No major complication were observed. In 28 of 29 patients (96%), there was a significant reduction or cessation of bleeding and/or relief of symptoms; one patient (3%) required hemorrhoidectomy. Of the 28 successful treatments, 16 (57%) had partial reduction of bleeding or relief of symptoms, while in 12 (43%) response was complete. Of those who were treated conservatively, 9 (82%) had partial and 2 (18%) had complete relief of symptoms. Of those who had banding/sclerotherapy, 7 (41%) had partial and 10 (59%) had complete relief. We also examined the effect of perianal sensation on the treatment outcome. Of 16 patients with complete anesthesia, 11 (69%) had partial and 5 (31%) had complete relief, whereas of the 12 patients with preserved sensation, 5 (42%) had partial and 7 (58%) had complete relief. In conclusion, the approach of banding or sclerotherapy of hemorrhoids in SCI patients is safe and effective. When sensation of the perianal region is preserved, the outcome seems to be better. The cause of SCI has no impact on the treatment results. There was no difference in the outcome of treatment between patients with stage II and stage III hemorrhoids; patients with stage IV hemorrhoids seem to do worse than those with stages II and III.

Date violence and date rape among adolescents: associations with disordered eating behaviors and psychological health.
Ackard DM, Neumark-Sztainer D.
Division of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, USA.
OBJECTIVES: The goal of the study was to assess the prevalence of date violence and rape in adolescents, to examine associations between date violence and rape and disordered eating behaviors and psychopathology, and to determine if these associations remain significant after controlling for sociodemographic characteristics and other physical and sexual abuse by an adult. METHOD: A Minnesota school-based sample of 81,247 boys and girls in 9th and 12th grades completed the 1998 Minnesota Student Survey. RESULTS: Overall, approximately 9% of girls and 6% of boys had experienced date violence or rape. Significant differences across race and grade were found. Date violence and rape is associated with higher rates of disordered eating behaviors and suicidal thoughts and attempts, and lower scores on measures of emotional well-being and self-esteem. Over 50% of youth reporting both date violence and rape also reported attempting suicide. Controlling for race and age, adolescents who have experienced both date violence and rape were more likely to use laxatives (OR: girls = 5.76; boys = 28.22), vomit (OR: girls = 4.74; boys = 21.46), use diet pills (OR: girls = 5.08; boys = 16.33), binge eat (OR: girls = 2.15; boys = 5.80), and have suicidal thoughts or attempts (OR: girls = 5.78; boys = 6.66) than their nonabused peers. These odds were weakened but remained significant after controlling for other abuse by an adult. Furthermore, a greater percentage of girls and boys who reported an abusive dating experience also reported repeat victimization (physical or sexual abuse perpetrated by an adult) when compared to their peers without an abusive dating experience. DISCUSSION: Abusive experiences during dating relationships may disrupt normal developmental processes, including the development of a stable self-concept and integrated body image during adolescence. This disruption manifests itself through thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Further research should explore effects of adverse adolescent dating experiences.

Rhubarb use in patients treated with Kampo medicines--a risk for gastric cancer?

In vitro mutagenic effects have been reported for ingredients contained in rhubarb. Therefore, rhubarb (Rhei Rhizoma) as an anthranoid laxative could be associated with a risk of developing gastric cancer as well as colorectal cancer. We are not aware of any reports that have examined the relationship between the use of rhubarb and the development of gastric cancer. During the period between 1979 and 1999, we treated 14,616 patients using various Kampo medicines, which sometimes contained rhubarb. In the present study, we determined whether patients, diagnosed with gastric cancer during the period between 1979 and 1999, had been administered rhubarb before the development of gastric cancer. Among the 10 enrolled patients, only 2 patients had been administered rhubarb before the development of gastric carcinoma. The other 8 patients had never received rhubarb before the development of gastric carcinoma. Rhubarb use may have little connection with the development of gastric cancer in practice, even if some ingredients in rhubarb have shown carcinogenic activity in experimental studies.

There are a number of approaches to hair loss problems.
Hair Million is an herbal alternative. It is a formula made of traditional, edible herbs
and has been anecdotally demonstrated the efficacy to ward off hair loss
problems.
There is no singular medical or alternative cure for hair loss since the
biology of hair growth is a highly complicated phenomenon.
It is unknown how Hair Million stops hair loss,
and promotes hair restoration.
The advantages of Hair Million over other approaches are, firstly, Hair Million is comparatively inexpensive,
and secondly, it is made only of traditionally used safe and healthy herbs that promote hair growth
according to Chinese pharmacopoeia. In addition, Hair Million is cardiotonic, meaning that Hair Million consists of herbs
that strengthens your heart, according to Chinese medicine. There is an interesting research paper which correlates baldness
to heart diseases: people with alopecia or hair loss
problems are significantly more likely to develop heart attacks.
