Health-related Quality of Life in Elderly Asian American and Non-Hispanic White Cancer Survivors

Bipolar Disorders in the Emergency Department
Affective disorders affect the way that people think and feel and are classified into unipolar disorders and bipolar disorders. Bipolar disorders represent a spectrum of these chronic mental health illnesses. Patients with bipolar disorder have high recurrence of acute symptoms, and on average spend 20% of their life in exacerbations characterized by mania, depression, or psychosis. Given the increased morbidity and mortality associated with bipolar disorders, it is imperative that the emergency physician remain vigilant when these patients seek emergency care.

What Psychedelics Can Teach Us About Play
We are in the midst of a new psychedelic renaissance. Drugs like MDMA and psilocybin are being ushered into mainstream medicine, promoted as miracle cures for a host of psychiatric woes. But as psychedelics come to be seen as treatments for various types of psychological suffering, we are overlooking one of their most precious offerings: the potential for play.
“Neuroplasticity” is the word many mental health professionals are now using to describe the positive effect of psychedelics; a process in which the brain sort of loosens up, becoming flexible and open to learning (Children’s brains, for instanc...

The Man Who Thinks He Can Live Forever
In a neat little neighborhood in Venice, Calif., there’s a block of squat, similar homes, filled with mortals spending their finite days on the planet eating pizza with friends, blowing out candles on birthday cakes, and binging late-night television. Halfway down the street, there’s a cavernous black modern box. This is where Bryan Johnson is working on what he calls “the most significant revolution in the history of Homo sapiens.”

Ketamine: Mechanisms and Relevance to Treatment of Depression
Annu Rev Med. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1146/annurev-med-051322-120608. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMajor depressive disorder (MDD) is a leading cause of suicide in the world. Monoamine-based antidepressant drugs are a primary line of treatment for this mental disorder, although the delayed response and incomplete efficacy in some patients highlight the need for improved therapeutic approaches. Over the past two decades, ketamine has shown rapid onset with sustained (up to several days) antidepressant effects in patients whose MDD has not responded to conventional antidepressant drugs. Recent preclinical studies have started ...

How To Avoid China ’ s Medicine Monopoly
I want to share a shocking statistic with you…
Around 80% of all the pharmaceuticals sold in America — both prescription and over-the-counter — are manufactured in China.
I’m talking about drugs for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, blood pressure and blood thinners, diuretics, aspirin, antibiotics, and a big chunk of the world’s insulin and diabetes drugs — just to name a few.1
We don’t even make penicillin anymore. The last penicillin plant in the U.S. closed its doors in 2004.
Americans who rely on medicine are now almost entirely at the mercy of a country whose relations with the U.S. have become more ...

Antibiotics Destroy Memories?
Even in my earliest days of practicing medicine, I was never a big fan of prescribing antibiotics – except, of course, in cases of extreme or life-threatening infections.
Because even back then, I was concerned about the damage these drugs could cause to your gut.
That’s because trillions of microscopic bacteria – some that protect against certain diseases and some that can cause disease – live in your microbiome and exist in a delicate balance with each other.
The problem is that antibiotics can’t distinguish between so-called “good” bacteria and the “bad” ones causing the infection.
These drugs kill eve...
