Gynecomastia is a combination of two Greek words: gynaik meaning "woman" and mastos meaning "breasts," and is the medical term for overly developed, large, womanly beasts on males. This embarrassing condition can be brought about by genetics, age, weight gain, and even some medications. Unfortunately, even with a healthy diet and a rigorous exercise routine, male breasts may refuse to diminish in shape or size. When this is the case, male breast reduction performed by a board-certified* plastic surgeon becomes your very best option. Performing Male ...

If you are frustrated with the appearance of your nose, or feel that it simply doesn't fit your face, rhinoplasty can be a valuable solution. Rhinoplasty is a type of plastic surgery that is performed to alter the shape and structure of your nose. People seek out rhinoplasty for both cosmetic and functional reasons. Cosmetic Problems With the Nose Many different factors can affect the look of your nose. Some people are born with certain problems, while others suffered noise deformities after an accident or an injury. Some common cosmetic problems people have with ...

Patient dumping occurs when a medically unstable patient is discharged due to financial reasons. Not only is patient dumping illegal, it is a form of medical negligence that can result in significant compensation for its victims. In 1986, Congress passed the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) requiring that every patient, regardless of their financial state, be provided with emergency care. EMTALA further states that no patient can be discharged until they have received full treatment within the scope of a hospital's abilities. Violations of EMTALA ...

First, breast surgery is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures performed every year, and is very safe. It's important to remember and understand that breast surgery is an invasive surgery that takes days or weeks to heal from, as well as that it really is a kind of surgery. There are risks with breast surgery, but these are small or even rare. You can also lessen the chances of any risks by having your breast surgery performed by an experienced and board-certified plastic surgeon. Find a doctor that keeps your health and safety front and center, and you ...

As a college student, you may be facing severe consequences for a DUI conviction, depending on your college's policies and Student Code of Conduct. A criminal defense attorney can discuss possible consequences with you and determine a legal strategy to fight for the least negative outcome to your case. Possible DUI Consequences for College Students A DUI conviction - and, in some cases, simply a DUI charge - can have serious consequences for your college career, whether you are about to embark on the undergraduate admissions process or are already attending college. Possible ...

As you age, gravity, genetics, and lifestyle choices can cause your brow to droop. The end result can be a constant look of tiredness, sternness, or anger. In addition, a drooping brow can make your eyebrows drop over your eyes, making your eyes look small, even mean at times. Because these unintentional facial expressions often do not match the personality of those they affect, many people as young as 30 have begun looking to plastic surgery for solutions. The most common solution for a droopy forehead is a brow lift. A brow lift is exactly what it sounds like: a surgical ...

Very few women are blessed with perfectly symmetrical breasts. In fact, breast asymmetry is more common than you might think. Approximately 10% of women have one breast that is significantly different in size or shape from the other. And as you age, this asymmetry may become more pronounced as the smaller breast remains relatively flat while the larger one grows in size due to pregnancy or weight fluctuations. Ultimately, this can increase sagging issues in the larger breast, further accentuating the asymmetry you experience. If you are self conscious or embarrassed ...

Highway safety is important for everyone, and trucker alertness is a key component of highway safety. That's why for decades, the federal government has required truckers to keep track of the hours that they drive. These laws, governing Hours of Service (HOS) are designed to ensure truck drivers have sufficient time to sleep and therefore prevent driver fatigue, which is a significant cause of highway accidents. The latest revisions to the HOS rules, however, have some truckers and trucking companies concerned, because they feel the rules keep drivers off the road too ...

Though this winter has been the third least snowiest in upstate New York since 1884, Albany residents should not neglect their responsibility to clear sidewalks of snow and ice, especially after late-season freezes or snowfalls like the one that dumped almost nine inches over the city in early March. Failing to clear sidewalks after a storm puts pedestrians at risk and property owners vulnerable to personal injury lawsuits. In Albany, property owners or residents must clear the snow and ice from all sidewalks adjacent to their properties within 24 hours after the end ...

Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor made his feelings known about Dr. Conrad Murray during his recent sentencing hearing. He appeared ready to send Dr. Murray to state prison for his actions surrounding the death of pop icon Michael Jackson. However, a new law prevented Pastor from handing down a prison sentence. Instead, Dr. Murray would spend the maximum time allowed under law in county jail. The California legislature recently imposed new rules for sentencing non-violent, non-serious and non-sex-related offenses. Essentially, those convicted of such felonies would ...

Birds of a similar feather do indeed tend to flock together. The old proverb can apply in many different contexts, but the basic meaning remains the same: people like to associate with other people who are like themselves. This can be a major problem when the "birds" in question are teenage drivers who are inclined to ignore rules about safe driving. Such drivers are the cause of many Chicago car accidents. This article will discuss recent research findings that peer pressure is a main cause of accidents for teen drivers. Knowing more about why and how this ...

A low pressure area is centered over eastern Oklahoma, and its associated cold front drapes south into eastern Texas. The front is stalled over eastern Texas and eastern Oklahoma and is generating severe weather today. NASA's Aqua satellite and NOAA's GOES-13 satellite have been providing infrared, visible and microwave images to forecasters of the stalled frontal system. On March 20, a flood warning was in effect up and down the eastern sides of Texas and Oklahoma, including Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas. The National Weather Service posted a flood warning for the ...

Colorado law prohibits drivers from operating vehicles while under the influence of marijuana. Currently, however, the law does not specify a specific level of THC, the psychoactive chemical in marijuana, that needs to be present in the body before a person is guilty of driving under the influence of drugs -- known as DUID. By contrast, in the context of drunk driving, a person with a blood alcohol content or BAC of .08 or above is guilty of DUI "per se," legally speaking, once a person drives with a BAC of .08 or higher they are automatically guilty of DUI, regardless ...

There is no solid evidence to support the widely held belief that regions of the United States that spend more on health care and have higher rates of health care use deliver more unnecessary care to patients, or that low-cost areas deliver higher quality and more efficient care, according to a study led by Salomeh Keyhani, MD, a physician at the San Francisco VA Medical Center and an assistant professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. The study authors called for national health care policies designed to discourage inappropriate care, regardless ...

In one of the largest studies of its kind, a consortium of investigators from 13 countries led the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing in the U.S. and the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium in Europe, found that nurses who reported better working conditions in hospitals and less likelihood of leaving also had patients who were more satisfied with their hospital stay and rated their hospitals more highly. The study was released today in the current issue of the prestigious British Medical Journal. The massive study, which in some countries involved every ...

Research at the University of Calgary's Hotchkiss Brain Institute (HBI) has demonstrated the novel expression of an ion channel in Purkinje cells – specialized neurons in the cerebellum, the area of the brain responsible for movement. Ray W. Turner, PhD, Professor in the Department of Cell Biology & Anatomy and PhD student Jordan Engbers and colleagues published this finding in the January edition of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). This research identifies for the first time that an ion channel called KCa3.1 that was not previously ...

Researchers from the Hotchkiss Brain Institute (HBI) and the Snyder Institute for Chronic Diseases at the University of Calgary's Faculty of Medicine have discovered a pathway that may contribute to the symptoms related to Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, collectively known as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). This research is a major milestone in developing future drug therapies for those living with these debilitating disorders. The digestive process is complex. To coordinate the many functions involved in digestion, the gut has its own set of nerve cells ...

USC Marshall study finds video capture and other automated systems cut down medical errors and minimize the tendency to operate outside normal procedures. The Conrad Murray case can obfuscate that the vast majority of grave medical errors happen in hospitals—the places we think are most safe—and are often the result of bad systems. Poor transmission of information and unmonitored interventions yield problems in operations, recovery rooms and regular wards. But how can we minimize interpretive and procedural errors that are the root cause of most medical mistakes? Research ...

At some campuses, a fake driver's license is almost a standard accessory for college students. In a small sample of students at a branch of the State University of New York, more than three-fourths of students interviewed admitted that they carry false identification -- mainly to gain entry to bars and to buy alcohol. When surveyed, many students admitted that it was challenging to convince bouncers that they are of legal age. Identification is carefully scrutinized, because bar owners do not want to jeopardize their state alcohol license by violating laws against underage ...

Plants have long been known as the lungs of the earth, but a new finding has found they may also play a role in electrifying the atmosphere. Scientists have long-suspected an association between trees and electricity but researchers from Queensland University of Technology (QUT), in Brisbane, Australia, think they may have finally discovered the link. Dr Rohan Jayaratne and Dr Xuan Ling from QUT's International Laboratory for Air Quality and Health (ILAQH), led by Professor Lidia Morawska, ran experiments in six locations around Brisbane, including the Brisbane Forest ...

Few people think about presidential pardons in racial terms. Even fewer people think about presidential pardons at all. But in a recent two-part article co-published by ProPublica and The Washington Post, an analysis of presidential pardon data seems to suggest that race may be a more important factor in presidential pardons than one might think. Most presidential pardons go unnoticed; those that do not often leave the impression that the process is rife with political maneuvering and backroom favors. Criminals pardoned with presidential pardons are essentially returned ...

ST. PAUL, Minn. – A new study suggests that older people may have an increased risk of problems with memory and thinking abilities after being in the hospital, according to research published in the March 21, 2012, online issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. "Our study is timely as the United States population continues to rapidly age and researchers try to identify factors that could reduce memory and thinking problems in the elderly," said study author Robert S. Wilson, PhD, of Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. "Understanding ...
