Researchers find new ally against Tuberculosis infections

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that usually affects the lungs. Compared with other diseases caused by a single infectious agent, tuberculosis is the second biggest killer, globally.

And now in search of new strategies against life-threatening tuberculosis infections, a group of researchers have found a new ally.The team has discovered a substance that interferes with the mycomembrane formation of the bacterium. The substance is effective even in low concentrations and when combined with known antibiotics their effectiveness is improved by up to 100-fold.

Among the greatest challenges when treating life-threatening tuberculosis infections is the increasing resistance to antibiotics.But the pathogen itself also makes the life of doctors difficult - its dense mycomembrane hampers the effect of many medications.

The scientists have discovered a substance that unsettles the formation of this membrane significantly.The team hypothesizes that similarly structured beta lactones could "mask" themselves as a mycolic acid to enter the mycolic acid metabolic pathways and then block the decisive enzymes.

The interdisciplinary team of scientists has hit the bulls-eye with the beta-lactone EZ120 and found that it does indeed inhibit the biosynthesis of the mycomembrane and kills mycobacteria effectively.EZ120 is effective even in low doses, easily passes the mycomembrane and exhibits only low toxicity to human cells.

The combined application of this substance with known antibiotics showed a synergistic effect leading to significantly increased effectiveness."Vancomycin, a common antibiotic, and EZ120 work together very well. When used together, the dose can be reduced over 100-fold. The scientists suspect that disrupting the mycomembrane enables antibiotics to enter the bacteria more easily. This is a new mode of action and might be a starting point for novel tuberculosis therapies," said study`s lead author Stephan A. Sieber.

The study published in journal Angewandte Chemie International Edition.

Top 5 Googled diseases and conditions of 2017 in India

Google Trends gives the list of diseases and conditions that Indians looked up this year. So as we bid adieu to 2017, we thought of looking at the most searched health problems. And it is no surprise that cancer was most searched on Google in the health section as the burden of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) is rising in India. Here are some of the health concerns that affected many Indians this year:

1. Cancer: According to the National Institute of Cancer Prevention and Research,  cancer of oral cavity and lungs in males and cervix and breast in females account for over 50% of all cancer deaths in India. The news of Vinod Khanna battling cancer and then, falling prey to the deadly news was one of the top trends this year. The other related searches were cancer herbologist in Bangalore and the role of turmeric (curcuminoids) in dealing with the disease.

2. Fever: The reason fever was more searched in 2017 was due to conditions such as viral fever, swine flu and dengue. Fever or an increase in temperature is related to many health problems and is one of the common symptom seen in most diseases and conditions. However, if you have a fever for more than a day it is wise to consult a doctor.

3. Diabetes: India is the diabetes capital of the world with 62 million diabetics in the country (15 percent of the population). November 14 is World diabetes day 2017 and the theme for this year was “women and diabetes – our right to a healthy future.”

4. Dengue: The increasing toll of dengue in Delhi and other parts of Northern India is responsible for this being a rising concern in India. Dengue is known to cause a drastic drop in the blood platelet count. Also, the death of a 7-year-old girl due to dengue and the hospital charging more than 18 lakhs for treatment was one of the viral trends in the healthcare category this year. Off the most searched terms related to dengue, treatment and symptoms were the top ranking ones.

5. HIV: Most people get confused between HIV and AIDS. Being HIV positive means a person has the HIV virus and AIDS is a full-blown disease. Here’s the difference between HIV and AIDS. Although currently there is a lot of awareness about HIV, which is why there has been a drop in the number f cases of HIV in India. However, timely diagnosis and treatment along with safe sex practice is the right approach to deal with it. The most searched terms related to HIV were HIV cure and vaccine.

Morning or night? We finally know what's the right time to shower!

SCIENCE REVEALS THE RIGHT TIME TO SHOWER: FIND OUT YOURS: Many people like to kick-start their day by taking a bath in the morning, while some prefer bathing right before bedtime. What do you do? But wait, what you choose may not really matter. We explore if there are in fact benefits of showering at a certain time of the day. Let's find out. 

MYTH BUSTED: There is no science which says that taking bath at one time makes you feel better or cleaner than another. There is no major difference or evidence to prove that taking a shower in the morning or evening is better.

YOU HAVE AN OILY SKIN: If you have an oily skin, then according to dermatologists you should take a bath in the morning rather than saving it for the night. When you sleep, the skin oil builds up and showering right after getting up is an excellent way of clearing the oil and pores. 

IF YOU HAVE HARD TIME WAKING UP: For many people taking a shower in the morning is more helpful than having a cup of coffee to wake up. Showering in the morning can boost your metabolism and make you more alert.

YOU WORK OUT IN THE MORNING: You should definitely take a bath in the morning if you are a morning workout person. The point of taking a bath after a workout session is to remove bacteria, sweat and pollutants from the skin.

YOU HAVE A CREATIVE JOB: Taking a shower is like meditating. While taking a shower, you enter a relaxed yet alert alpha brain wave state – a state that is perfect for coming up with creative ideas. So, if you want to give your brain a kick start showering early in the morning is best for you. 

YOU HAVE A HARD TIME GETTING TO SLEEP: We remember we said morning shower can help you wake up but at night it’s a different story altogether. The cooling that your body feels after taking a shower tends to be a natural sleep inducer. 

YOU HAVE DRY SKIN: If you have a dry and flaky skin, you must schedule your showers post-work. Showering in the morning can make your skin drier throughout the day.

Singing in groups can make you happy: study

This holiday season, don't shy away from joining the Christmas choir, suggest scientists who found that singing in groups can make you happier.

Researchers from the University of East Anglia in the UK found that people who took part in a community singing group had mental health.

According to the study published in the BMJ journal Medical Humanities, the combination of singing and socialising was an essential part of recovery because it promoted an ongoing feeling of belonging and well-being.

The researchers analysed participants who took part in the Sing Your Heart Out (SYHO) project - an initiative which runs weekly singing workshops, aimed at people with mental health conditions as well as the general public.

They followed the group for six months and undertook interviews and focus groups with participants, organisers and workshop leaders.

"We found that singing as part of a group contributes to peoples recovery from mental health problems," said Tom Shakespeare, from the University of East Anglia.

"We heard the participants calling the initiative a life saver and that it saved their sanity," Shakespeare said.

Study links processed red meat consumption with increased cancer risk

The health hazards of consuming processed meat like salami, sausages, ham, are something we keep hearing every other day. Unfortunately, that does not change the fact that processed meat consumption is quite high the world over.

While numerous studies have previously linked processed meat consumption with cancer, a new study has echoed the stance warning that cured red meat may increase the risk of developing cancer. Cancer Research UK has acknowledged a correlation between processed and red meats and the deadly disease.

According to experts, the only way to be certain that it hasn't been affected by tumours is by taking a look at the entire animal before it's cut up because consuming diseased product may increase your risk of developing cancer, reports Daily Star Online.

Author Tim Key from the University of Oxford said, "Cancer Research UK supports IARC's decision that there's strong enough evidence to classify processed meat as a cause of cancer and red meat as a probable cause of cancer."

"We've known for some time about the probable link between red and processed meat and bowel cancer, which is backed by substantial evidence. They warned that even if you are buying it from a supermarket, then also there is no certainty that cancer has been chopped out by butchers.

Cancer Research UK and the International Agency for Research on Cancer classify processed meats, including bacon and sausages, as "causes of cancer". The team advises the public to reduce their meat intake if it's excessive.

"This decision doesn't mean you need to stop eating any red and processed meat. But if you eat lots of it you may want to think about cutting down," the researchers concluded.

Excessive gaming to be labeled a mental disorder by WHO

Parents may want to keep a closer eye on their kids glued to the gaming consoles. According to The Independent, ‘Gaming Disorder’ is all set to be classified as a mental health condition in World Health Organisation’s international list of illnesses for the first time next year. After monitoring computer gaming for almost a decade, the organisation has decided to classify some excessive players as having a mental health condition.

According to a draft released by WHO, the criteria for this addiction includes making gaming a priority “to the extent that gaming takes precedence over other life interests.” Several gamers were found to go long hours in front of their consoles, causing a lack of sleep and a reduction in physical activity and exposure to sunlight.

Talking about the draft and the decision to put gaming disorder in the list, Vladimir Poznyak, a member of the WHO’s Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse, said, “Health professionals need to recognise that gaming disorder may have serious health consequences. Most people who play video games don’t have a disorder, just like most people who drink alcohol don’t have a disorder either. However, in certain circumstances overuse can lead to adverse effects.”

The WHO said gaming disorder is wider than just video gaming disorder. Estimates of the proportion of computer game players who have a problem range from 0.2 per cent to one in five. The draft wording of the gaming disorder entry also states that sufferers will continue to game even when it leads to ‘negative consequences’.

While some may debate whether gaming does pose a threat to mental health, the amount of time many people spend playing video games is surprising. A survey found out that 10 percent of the people playing video games admitted to spending between 12 and 24 hours glued to their video game screens. Action games like Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto have been found to deplete a key memory centre in the brain called the hippocampus.

Short-term exercise equals big-time brain boost: study

Even a short, one-time burst of exercise can boost parts of the brain responsible for executive functions such as decision-making and focus, a study suggests.

While other studies have shown brain-health benefits after 20-minutes of a single bout of exercise, this study, published in the journal Neuropsychologia, suggests even 10 minutes of aerobic activity can prime the parts of the brain that help us focus.

"Some people cannot commit to a long-term exercise regime because of time or physical capacity," said Matthew Heath, from the University of Western Ontario in Canada.

"This shows that people can cycle or walk briskly for a short duration, even once, and find immediate benefits," Heath said.

During the study, participants either sat and read a magazine or did 10 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous exercise on a stationary bicycle.

Following the reading and exercise session, the researchers used eye-tracking equipment to examine participants' reaction times to a cognitively demanding eye movement task.

The task was designed to challenge areas of the brain responsible for executive functions such as decision-making and inhibition.

"Those who had exercised showed immediate improvement. Their responses were more accurate and their reaction times were up to 50 milliseconds shorter than their pre-exercise values. That may seem minuscule but it represented a 14 percent gain in cognitive performance in some instances," said Heath.

Beware of Twitter bots that can give you the wrong health advice

Already notorious for swaying political discourse, fake social media accounts may be even more dangerous. Researchers have found that the bots on social media platforms like Twitter often engage in offering health advice which are not backed by science. Social bots are automated accounts that use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to influence discussions and promote specific ideas or products. The researchers focused on how these bots promoted the notion that using electronic cigarettes, or e-cigarettes, helps people stop smoking, a conclusion not definitively supported by research. “Social bots can pass on health advice that hasn’t been scientifically proven,” said lead author of the study Jon-Patrick Allem from Keck School of Medicine of University of Southern California.

“The jury is still out on if e-cigarettes are useful smoking cessation tools, but studies have shown that the chemicals in vape juice are harmful,” Allem said.  For the study, published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research Public Health and Surveillance, the researchers analysed about 2.2 million e-cigarette-related posts on Twitter. To compile their data, researchers crawled Twitter to pull out tweets that used key terms such as e-cigarette, vaping and ejuice. They identified human users from social bots by analysing retweets or mentions, ratio of followers to followees, content and level of emotion. 

Then they used a “BotOrNot” algorithm as the final filter. The researchers found that social bots were two times more likely than humans to promote both new products and the idea that e-cigarettes empower people to quit smoking. The study is one of the first to document bots influencing unhealthy behaviour, Allem said.

Being socially isolated may put you at diabetes risk

A study has found that men and women who are not active socially and remain isolated may be at an increased risk of developing diabetes than individuals with larger social networks.

The findings showed that a lack of social participation was associated with 60 per cent higher odds of pre-diabetes and 112 per cent higher odds of Type 2 diabetes in women compared to those with normal glucose metabolism.  Men who lack social participation in clubs and groups had a 42 per cent higher risk of Type 2 diabetes, while those living alone had 94 per cent higher risk.

"The study is the first to determine the association of a broad range of social network characteristics -- such as social support, network size or type of relationships -- with different stages of Type 2 diabetes," said lead author Stephanie Brinkhues, from the Maastricht University Medical Centre, in the Netherlands.

"As men living alone seem to be at a higher risk for the development of type 2 diabetes, they should become recognised as a high risk group in health care. Social network size and participation in social activities may eventually be used as indicators of diabetes risk," added co-author Miranda Schram, from the varsity.

For the study, published in the journal BMC Public Health, the team involved 2,861 men and women aged 40 to 75 years.  Early changes in glucose metabolism may cause non-specific complaints such as tiredness and feeling unwell, which may explain why individuals limit their social participation. 

Promoting social integration and participation may be a promising target in prevention strategies for type 2 diabetes, the researchers suggested. "Our findings support the idea that resolving social isolation may help prevent the development of Type 2 diabetes," Brinkhues added.

Only 27% Indians have health insurance, says report

Only 27 percent of Indians have health insurance coverage, a joint report by FICCI and KPMG revealed on Monday. The report, titled “Health savings account in India”, revealed that the healthcare sector in India is largely underpenetrated with government expenditure constituting approximately 1.4 percent of the country’s GDP. On the other hand, private sector expenditure constitutes 70 percent of the total healthcare expenditure out of which 62 percent is out of pocket while only eight percent is covered through pre-financed instruments, as per World Bank Data. This indicates a significant gap in coverage offered by current products and the need for a comprehensive ecosystem of financed healthcare.

“Healthcare costs today are going up by the day due to lifestyle diseases in particular and the only way the gap between rising healthcare costs and affordability can be bridged is if the insurance sector develops a sustainable and viable mechanism,” Antony Jacob, Co-Chair at FICCI Health Insurance Committee, said in a statement on Monday. “Today with out of pocket expenses accounting for nearly twice as much as institutional expenses, there exists a real need for an all-inclusive solution towards healthcare in the Indian market.”

Currently, the health insurance industry caters largely to institutional treatment leading to considerable opportunities in targeting outpatient treatment, with medical inflation at 15 percent, in areas such as consultation fees, diagnostics and medical expenses. There is an urgent need for a centralised health savings scheme managed by a government-nominated body or privately managed by insurers with centralised fund management, the report suggested. “This will ensure that more and more people have funds for accessing healthcare services, thereby going a long way in realising India’s goal of providing healthcare to all,” noted Shashwat Sharma, Partner and Head (Insurance) at KPMG.

High BP in pregnancy elevates heart risk in babies, says study

Higher blood sugar in early pregnancy raises the baby's risk of a congenital heart defect, a study claims.

"We found that in women who develop diabetes during pregnancy, we can measure risk for having a child with congenital heart disease by looking at their glucose values during the first trimester of pregnancy," said James Priest, from the Stanford University School of Medicine in the US.

The research team studied medical records from 19,107 pairs of mothers and their babies born between 2009 and 2015.

The records, published in The Journal of Pediatrics, included details of the mothers' prenatal care, including blood test results and any cardiac diagnoses made for the babies during pregnancy or after birth.

Infants with certain genetic diseases, those born from multiple pregnancies and those whose mothers had extremely low or high body-mass-index measures were not included in the study. Of the infants in the study, 811 were diagnosed with congenital heart disease, and the remaining 18,296 were not.

After excluding women who had diabetes before pregnancy or who developed it during pregnancy, the results showed that the risk of giving birth to a child with a congenital heart defect was elevated by eight percent for every increase of 10 milligrams per decilitre in blood glucose levels.

Drinking hot tea daily may reduce glaucoma risk: study

Drinking a cup of hot tea at least once a day may significantly lower risk of developing glaucoma - a serious eye condition, a study suggests. However, drinking decaffeinated and caffeinated coffee, decaffeinated tea, iced tea and soft drinks do not seem to make any difference to glaucoma risk, said researchers from the University of California in the US.

Glaucoma causes fluid pressure to build up inside the eye (intraocular pressure), damaging the optic nerve. It is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide, and currently affects 57.5 million people, and is expected to increase to 65.5 million by 2020, according to the study published in the journal BMJ.

Previous research suggests that caffeine can alter intraocular pressure, but no study so far has compared the potential impact of decaffeinated and caffeinated drinks on glaucoma risk.

The researchers looked at data from the 2005-2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) in the US. Among the 1678 participants who had full eye test results, including photos, 84 (5 percent) adults had developed the condition.

They were asked how often and how much they had drunk of caffeinated and decaffeinated drinks, including soft drinks and iced tea, over the preceding 12 months, using a questionnaire.

Compared with those who did not drink hot tea every day, those who did had a lower glaucoma risk, the data showed.

After taking account of potentially influential factors, such as diabetes and smoking, hot tea-drinkers were 74 percent less likely to have glaucoma. However, no such associations were found for coffee - caffeinated or decaffeinated - decaffeinated tea, iced tea or soft drinks.

Now you can blame vitamin supplements for heartburn!

Vitamin supplements can boost energy, help you lose weight, beat stress, improve performance, and reduce wrinkles, but taking too many of them could lead to an unwanted side effect. According to express.co.uk, vitamin supplements may cause heartburn in some people. The pills could irritate the oesophagus, or allow some stomach acid to creep back up the oesophagus when it enters the stomach, said Dr David Katz. He also noted that heartburn could be caused by the pill’s shape or size, and switching brand may help to reduce the pain. But if the problem continues even after that, it may be a good idea to stop taking the supplements altogether.

Katz noted, “Heartburn is a catchall term for a burning sensation in your oesophagus. A vitamin pill, which can be fairly large, could cause either irritating the oesophagus as it goes down or allowing some acid from the stomach to pass up into the oesophagus as the pill goes through the muscular ring separating these two organs, the gastro-oesophageal sphincter.” 

 “If the problem persists despite changing brands or formulation, you might give up multivitamins altogether. Although I recommend such supplements, there’s no definitive evidence that they confer health benefits,” he added. Liquid vitamins could be an alternative. It will be easier to swallow and minimise irritation. If patients choose to give up the multivitamins, eating plenty of fruit and vegetables, and whole grains, should help to regain the extra nutrients that the body needs, he added.

Benefits of Drinking Warm Water vs. Cold Water

The benefits of drinking water to keep the body hydrated are well known, yet there is one dynamic which is often overlooked by us when refilling our water indexes, the temperature of the water we drink.

Yes, the temperature of the water you are drinking can also have an effect on your health, and this fact has been endorsed by several Ayurvedic texts as well. Let's have a look at the science behind the temperature of water we should be drinking.

When to drink cold water?

During exercise

Exercising warms our body and causes sweating, which is a natural cooling mechanism. However, we lose a lot of water and electrolytes through sweat and become dehydrated.

If you are trying to lose weight

Drinking cool water during your weight loss regimen can help you burn some extra calories. Cold water boosts your metabolism and causes extra calorie consumption by your body.

When you have fever

If you are surprised with this assertion, let's understand a basic fact. When we have fever, our body temperature rises because the body is fighting the viruses that are causing the condition. Drinking a glass of cool water or normal water from can provide instant relief.

When to drink warm water?

If you have indigestion

Warm water makes it easier for body to process and digest foods. Having a glass of warm or normal water in the morning is known to stimulate digestion and ease bowl movement.

While you are detoxing

We have all come across homemade detox water remedies for flushing out toxins from our body. When you are preparing a homemade detox solution, make sure you use normal or warm water. The warmth will coax the nutrients from the fruit and veggies in your detox mixture and make them easier to digest.

For pain relief

Drinking warm water helps in increasing the blood flow in your body, thus relaxing the cramped tissues in your body. If you are suffering from headaches or inflammation, a glass or two of warm water can help you relax.

Your favourite painkillers are making you fat, says study

Commonly prescribed painkillers need to be given for shorter periods of time to reduce the risk of obesity and sleep deprivation, a new study has revealed. Over the past 10 years, there has been a large increase in the prescription of medications such as opioids and some antidepressants for chronic pain management. Experts at Newcastle University have today published a study in the academic journal, PLOS ONE, which shows the serious impact of these medications and highlights the need to reduce their use.

Findings show that medications commonly used to treat pain, like gabapentinoids such as gabapentin, pregabilin and opiates, doubled the risk of obesity and were associated with poor sleep.

Study’s findings

Scientists assessed the cardio-metabolic health – the inter-relationship between metabolic and cardiovascular disease – in more than 133,000 participants from the UK Biobank. Body Mass Index, waist circumference and blood pressure were compared between those taking painkillers for chronic, non-cancer pain and cardio-metabolic drugs, compared to those prescribed cardio-metabolic treatment only. Conditions that can require the use of this treatment include migraine, diabetic neuropathy and chronic lower back pain.

In 2016, 24 million opiates prescriptions were issued in the UK, exactly double the amount of 2006. Two years ago, 11,000 patients were admitted to hospital due to an opiate overdose. Findings of the new study show people on opiates and cardio-metabolic drugs reported 95% rates of obesity, 82% ‘very high’ waist circumference and 63% hypertension, as opposed to those on cardio-metabolic drugs only. Results suggest that chronic pain medications should be prescribed for shorter periods of time to limit serious health complications. Dr Sophie Cassidy, Research Associate at the Institute of Cellular Medicine, Newcastle University, is lead author of the study.

She said: “In the last two decades there has been a significant increase in the number of people being prescribed both opioid and non-opioid medications to treat chronic pain. “However, this is the largest study looking at the links between commonly prescribed painkillers and cardio-metabolic health”.

Living in cold regions may up risk of developing cancer: Study

While many people may love the cold and snowy landscapes, a study has warned those living in areas with low temperatures saying that they may be at an increased risk of developing cancer.

According to the study, those who live in cold regions, such as Denmark and Norway, had among the highest incidences of cancer in the world. Researchers suggest that there is an evolutionary relationship between adaptation at extreme environmental conditions – like cold and high altitude – and increased cancer risk in humans. "The findings of this study provide evidence that genetic variants found to be beneficial in extreme environments, can also predispose for cancer," said Konstantinos Voskarides, from the University of Cyprus.

"Cell resistance at low temperatures and at high altitude probably increases the probability for malignancy. This effect hardly could be filtered out by natural selection since most cancers appear later on in age after most people have their children," said Voskarides. Researchers focused on the effect of low temperatures, either within Arctic/Scandinavian climates or high altitudes. Their analyses focused on the relationship between cancer risk and local average annual temperatures. They concluded that the extremely cold environment contributed to the cancer risk.

For the study, they carefully examined the data of worldwide cancer incidence. They probed the available literature bibliographic cancer incidence and genetic data for human populations living at extreme cold and extreme high-altitudes.

A striking pattern began to emerge, with the highest incidence of certain cancers linked to those populations living in the coldest environments. Additionally, analysis of 186 human populations showed a great linearity of high cancer incidence with the lower the environmental temperature.

"The data shows that these populations exhibit extremely high cancer incidence, especially for lung, breast and colorectal cancer," said Voskarides. "This is the first study that provides evidence that high cancer risk may be a result of evolutionary adaptation in certain environmental conditions," he said. The study was published in the journal Molecular Biology and Evolution.
