'Anti-Psychotic' Drugs and Bipolar Disorder
A few words on the odd seeming fact that all of the drugs for schizophrenia, all of the 'anti-psychotic drugs,' have been found useful for bipolar disorder. Schizophrenia is a disorder characterized by loosening of ego boundaries. As a recent cartoon in the New Yorker captioned 'I can't tell if that is an internal thought or something I already said.' Viewed in a topographic sense, these drugs tighten up those boundaries. I can recall walking down the hall of the ward with the Vice Chief of Psychiatry at the VA and a patient walked up to us and indicated some way in which he had been hostilely treated by Dr. Charles. Dr. C...

Day 4 of Digest Super Week: The supertaster who researches supertasting
Professor Charles Spence
Charles Spence: I study supertasters
Everyone would like to be a supertaster, right? “Supertaster” is the name given to those individuals (roughly a quarter of the population) who are more sensitive than the rest to tastes, especially to the bitter taste in foods such as Brussels sprouts, endive salad, and coffee. It is worth noting that not everyone who you might imagine being a supertaster, is. Jeffrey Steingarten, for example, the famous North American food critic turned out to be a non-taster when I gave him a tasting strip (the simplest way to assess taster status in the lab). It turns...

The Implications of the CareFusion/ Dr Denham/ NQF/ Leapfrog Group Case Continue to Grow, but Remain Anechoic
The story about CareFusion, Dr Charles Denham, and the National Quality Forum certainly has legs, but continues to tread very softly. BackgroundAt the time of our last post, on January 28, 2014, the basics were:- The case became public with an apparently routine legal settlement between CareFusion and the US Department of Justice - The CareFusion settlement for $40.1 million was made in response to allegations that kickbacks were made to promote ChloraPrep, a solution meant for preoperative and other health care skin cleaning- The Department of Justice news release also alleged that payments wer...

Patient Safety Leader Pays $1 Million To Settle CareFusion Kickback Claims
CareFusion Corp. last year paid $40.1 million to settle allegations that it offered kickbacks to doctors in violation of the False Claims Act. Last week, the Department of Justice announced a settlement with one of the doctors implicated in that case. Dr. Charles Denham agreed to pay the United States $1 million to settle allegations that, under agreements entered into in 2008, Denham received monthly payments from CareFusion while serving as co-chair of the Safe Practices Committee of the National Quality Forum. The government alleged that Denham did not disclose these industry payments and furthermore accepted t...

Why Bad News Is Not Always Bad
Last month, the cover of BusinessWeek featured an article, How Big Pharma Uses Charity Programs to Cover for Drug Price Hikes, focused on co-pay charities for Medicare patients. I of course had heard about such co-pay charities before, and even had the opportunity to meet with a representative of one a few years ago, but frankly I had no idea what they did. So when the article came out, outlining the "evils" of this practice, it caught my attention. By catching my attention, it actually saved my elderly parents significant amounts of money.
My father and mother are both retired, living on a small pension and Social Secur...

Don't Jail People for Not Paying Traffic Tickets before You Even Convict Them
The City of Calhoun, Georgia, adopted a scheme by which bail was set to a pre-determined amount, resulting in Maurice Walker being held in jail for nearly 2 weeks on misdemeanor pubic drunkenness charges. Walker challenged detention on behalf of himself and those similarly situated, including person held ontrafficoffenses.The federal district court got it right and enjoined the city from enforcing its scheme: when setting bail for criminal defendants, basic due-process principles require a judge to take into account the defendant ’s income and set an individually payable amount. That rule exists to ensure against a manif...

Researchers are finding out why a partial loss of vision can lead to hallucinations
The findings could lead to new treatment approaches for Charles Bonnet syndrome
By Emma Young
The head of a brown lion. Multiple tiny, green, spinning Catherine wheels with red edges. Colourful fragments of artillery soldiers and figures in uniform and action. Unfamiliar faces of well-groomed men… These are just a few of the hallucinations reported by a group of people with macular degeneration (MD), a common cause of vision loss in people aged over 40.
About 40 per cent of people with MD – who lose vision in the centre of their visual field but whose peripheral vision is generally unaffected – develop Charles Bonn...

Officially retired this week
As usual nothing to say due to the ever deepening depression I'm in the midst of. My 66th birthday came and went last week. I have not celebrated birthdays for quite a few years now, it's just another day.
