PHILADELPHIA, PA, March 21, 2011 (Press-News.org) Deborah Gary established DHEx Enterprises, LLC, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 2008, as a 100% female, minority, veteran-owned business and has jumped into the medical equipment sales market. Like many African Americans, Ms Gary suffers from high blood pressure and her family is plagued with heart disease. Attempts to control it through medication and a change of diet and lifestyle were not satisfactory for Ms. Gary. She was blessed with an understanding manager that agreed to retire her early from a highly stressed engineering management job in 2006 and 2 years later moved home to Philadelphia. However, what drove Ms. Gary to relocate from Alexandria, Virginia to Philadelphia is also what drove her to enter the medical sales market.
One thing Ms Gary observed over the years is the death of numerous friends who either did not know they had health problems, or did not control their health problems. She also noticed that many waited to go to the doctor to find out their basic status - such as blood pressure numbers, temperature, weight, and blood glucose level. This should no longer be the reason why we often find out we have a health problem too late. There is very affordable home use diagnostic equipment for all of these tests. By knowing your blood pressure, you can make adjustments to your lifestyle and follow-up with a doctor more quickly.
DHEx Enterprises, LLC added the Medical Technology Sales Division in the Fall 2010. They are now a direct reseller of American Diagnostic Corporation (ADC) core diagnostic equipment. ADC medical equipment and accessories have been carefully designed to meet the rigorous demands of the most discriminating healthcare professional throughout the world. The wide selection of products that DHEx Enterprises offer include Sphygmomanometers, Stethoscopes, Digital Thermometers, Ophthalmoscopes, Laryngoscopes, CPR aides, Caseware, Neurological tools, Surgical instruments, Pulse Oximeters and supplies. The digital thermometers, blood pressure monitors and CPR aides are perfect for home use.
DHEx Enterprises, LLC provides books, educational, engineering, and information technology products. For further information, call 215-525-5851, email info@dhexenterprises.com or visit their website at http://www.dhexenterprises.com.

Life expectancy of severely mentally ill dramatically reduced due to poor physical health
2011-03-21
Physical ill-health is rife among the severely mentally ill in Britain, according to new research published today by the University of East Anglia (UEA).
In a study of almost 800 patients with severe mental illness such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, two-thirds were found to be overweight or obese, and a disproportionate number suffered from diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and raised cholesterol.
The results of the two-year project in Kent are published today in the peer-reviewed journal BMC Psychiatry.
During the study, the researchers introduced ...
Mutant prions help cells foil harmful protein misfolding
2011-03-21
PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — Romping clumps of misfolded proteins are prime suspects in many neurological disorders including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Creutzfeld-Jakob Disease. Those diseases are devastating and incurable, but a team of biologists at Brown University reports that cells can fix the problems themselves with only a little bit of help. The insight suggests that there are more opportunities to develop a therapy for protein misfolding than scientists had thought.
"There are multiple steps that you could target," said Susanne DiSalvo, a Brown biology ...
New imaging technique provides rapid, high-definition chemistry
2011-03-21
With intensity a million times brighter than sunlight, a new synchrotron-based imaging technique offers high-resolution pictures of the molecular composition of tissues with unprecedented speed and quality. Carol Hirschmugl, a physicist at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM), led a team of researchers from UWM, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) to demonstrate these new capabilities.
Hirschmugl and UWM scientist Michael Nasse have built a facility called "Infrared Environmental Imaging (IRENI)," to perform ...
Ethnic minorities are 'silent sufferers' of chronic fatigue syndrome
2011-03-21
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is characterized by unexplained and debilitating tiredness and is associated with headaches, disrupted sleep, muscle pain and difficulty in concentrating. New research published by BioMed Central's open access journal BMC Medicine shows that ethnicity, depression, lack of exercise or social support, and social difficulties are major risk factors for CFS.
A multi-institute study funded by the Medical Research Council (UK), involving researchers across London and Manchester, looked at data from over 4000 adults living in England. The result ...
Climate change hits home
2011-03-21
Direct experience of extreme weather events increases concern about climate change and willingness to engage in energy-saving behaviour, according to a new research paper published in the first edition of the journal Nature Climate Change this week.
In particular, members of the British public are more prepared to take personal action and reduce their energy use when they perceive their local area has a greater vulnerability to flooding, according to the research by Cardiff and Nottingham universities.
Although no single flooding event can be attributed to climate change, ...
PMH researchers create an organic nanoparticle that uses sound and heat to find and treat tumors
2011-03-21
A team of scientists from Princess Margaret Hospital have created an organic nanoparticle that is completely non-toxic, biodegradable and nimble in the way it uses light and heat to treat cancer and deliver drugs. (A nanoparticle is a minute molecule with novel properties).
The findings, published online today in Nature Materials (DOI: 10.1038/NMAT2986) are significant because unlike other nanoparticles, the new nanoparticle has a unique and versatile structure that could potentially change the way tumors are treated, says principal investigator Dr. Gang Zheng, Senior ...
Batteries charge quickly and retain capacity, thanks to new structure
2011-03-21
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — The batteries in Illinois professor Paul Braun's lab look like any others, but they pack a surprise inside.
Braun's group developed a three-dimensional nanostructure for battery cathodes that allows for dramatically faster charging and discharging without sacrificing energy storage capacity. The researchers' findings will be published in the March 20 advance online edition of the journal Nature Nanotechnology.
Aside from quick-charge consumer electronics, batteries that can store a lot of energy, release it fast and recharge quickly are desirable for ...
