CDC advises healthcare professionals on the use of antibiotics
2014-04-05
Each time an individual is diagnosed with a specific medical condition, the treating physician will need to decide on an appropriate treatment plan. Because each person responds differently to this treatment, doctors and nurses must be sure to continually monitor the individual's progress. If the individual is not showing signs of improvement, changes may need to be made to ensure that the person is able to make a complete recovery.
In some situations, it may be necessary for patients to receive antibiotics to treat their illnesses, and this could cause potential problems. ...
Cerebral palsy, birth injury, and medical malpractice
2014-04-05
The medical story
Most everyone has heard of, or knows someone with, cerebral palsy. But what, exactly, does this term refer to? "Cerebral palsy" can be described as a neurological disorder appearing in infancy, or in the early years of childhood, which disorder permanently affects the body's movement and coordination, but which doesn't worsen over the years. The causation is abnormalities in that part of the brain controlling movements of the muscles.
Most children who have cerebral palsy are born that way, the damage occurring during pregnancy (75 percent of the ...
Tackling the war on skyrocketing student loans
2014-04-05
College students today face an array of hurdles when they graduate. Not only do they have to compete in a tough U.S. job market, but many have to figure out how to pay back their student loans.
After graduation, the government gives students 6 months before they are required to pay back their loans on a 10 year repayment plan. In many cases, this amounts to a mortgage payment. Many students, unable to find a job or pay back such a high monthly payment, are forced into default--and further and further into debt.
There are programs available to help borrowers struggling ...

New law could give four-time DUI offenders ability to drive in Illinois
2014-04-05
When a person is convicted of a DUI in Illinois, there are very specific penalties that will result. These penalties can include the loss of driving privileges for a prolonged period of time. If there are subsequent offenses, the amount of time that a license suspension will run can increase dramatically.
For repeat DUI offenders, three or more convictions can mean the permanent revocation of their license. They would be unable to drive in Illinois, and if they were caught behind the wheel without a license, they would be facing additional penalties. These offenders ...

Tennessee bill proposes to reduce jail time for repeat DUI offenders
2014-04-05

Will the number of truck accidents continue to increase?
2014-04-05
According to the National Safety Council, the number of fatal car accidents in the U.S. decreased by approximately three percent from 2012 to 2013. The number of car crash related injuries also declined by about two percent during the same period.

Study: number of divorces in U.S. increasing
2014-04-05
For many years, those who have researched the incidence of divorce in the U.S. have told a largely similar story: the period of social change that began in the 1950s sparked a dramatic increase in the rate of divorce in our country. In about 1980, the divorce rate peaked and it has been declining ever since. A new study suggests, however, that this understanding of the divorce rate in the U.S. is incorrect.
In a study published in the journal Demography, researchers at the University of Minnesota re-examined divorce data and they discovered that the divorce rate has ...
Innocent behavior can lead to a sex crime arrest
2014-04-05
In recent years, law enforcement agencies and prosecutors have redoubled their efforts to identify, investigate and convict those who they suspect of having committed sex crimes. Too often, media outlets are quick to pick up on arrests made for these sorts of crimes and to present the accused as guilty before all the facts are clear. This sort of attention makes it very easy for the public at large to disregard the findings of the criminal process and to brand as sex offenders those who did nothing wrong.
It is not difficult to see how a person's perfectly innocent behavior ...
