TAIPEI, TAIWAN, June 19, 2012 (Press-News.org) Top music acts from around the world will be performing for packed crowds at 2F White, a forthcoming party at the New Taipei City Exhibition Hall.

The annual event is taking place for the sixth time on July 7th 2012, offering a stellar line-up of performers, headlined by renowned Dutch trance music pioneer Ferry Corsten.

Also in attendance will be Egyptian DJ duo Aly & Fila, Swedish house act AN21 & Max Vangeli and rising trance star Orjan Nilsen, plus Taiwanese DJs Cookie and Reaz:ON.

Proceedings get underway at 21:00 local time and continue until 04:00, with tickets for the event selling out fast.

Many of the cheaper tickets have already been snapped up, but limited quantities are still available for between 1,400 and 1,600 Taiwanese dollars (GBP30.10 and GBP34.40).

As the name of the party suggests, guests are expected to stick to an all-white dress code and will have to pay an increased price of 2,300 Taiwanese dollars if they turn up wearing any other colour.

More than 8,000 guests attended last year's 2F White party, all resplendent in their striking white outfits.

More hospitalizations, higher charges, for kids with high blood pressure

2012-06-19

Hospitalizations for children with high blood pressure and related charges dramatically increased during 10 years ending in 2006, according to a study published in the American Heart Association journal Hypertension. This nationally-based study is the first in which researchers examined hypertension hospitalizations in children. While researchers expected a rise in hospitalizations due to the increased frequency of high blood pressure in children, "the economic burden created by inpatient childhood high blood pressure was surprising," said Cheryl Tran, M.D., study lead ...

Too much salt may damage blood vessels and lead to high blood pressure

2012-06-19

Eating a high-salt diet for several years may damage blood vessels — increasing your risk of developing high blood pressure, according to research reported in the American Heart Association journal Circulation. People with this type of blood vessel damage who eat a high-salt diet are more likely to develop hypertension, or high blood pressure. This research hints at the presence of a "sodium amplification loop" in which eating too much salt for a long time damages blood vessels, leading to a greater chance of developing high blood pressure if the high-salt diet is continued. Researchers ...

UC Santa Cruz researchers find increase in Lyme disease mirrors drop in red fox numbers

2012-06-19

SANTA CRUZ, Ca.--A continued increase of Lyme disease in the United States, once linked to a recovering deer population, may instead be explained by a decline of the red fox, UC Santa Cruz researchers suggest in a new study. The team's findings, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, reveal that although deer populations have stabilized, Lyme disease has increased across the northeastern and midwestern United States over the past three decades. The increase coincides with shrinking populations of the red fox, which feeds on small mammals, ...

Study suggests laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery appears to be safer than open procedure

2012-06-19

CHICAGO – A study that examined national outcome differences between laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and open Roux-en-Y gastric bypass suggests that the minimally invasive laparoscopic procedure was associated with greater safety and used fewer resources because of shorter hospital stays and less cost, according to a report in the June issue of Archives of Surgery, a JAMA Network publication.

Survey finds surgical interns concerned about training duty-hour restrictions

2012-06-19

CHICAGO – A survey of surgical interns suggests many of them believe that new duty-hour restrictions will decrease continuity with patients, coordination of care and time spent operating, as well as reduce their acquisition of medical knowledge, development of surgical skills and overall educational experience, according to a report in the June issue of Archives of Surgery, a JAMA Network publication. In July 2011, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) implemented new resident duty-hour standards, including more supervision and a 16-hour shift ...
