Winter- And Spring-Onset RA Patients Have Worse 6 Month Outcomes Than Those With Summer Onset
When a patient"s first symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) occur in winter, the severity of their RA (as measured by the modified Total Sharp Score, mTSS, an assessment of erosion and joint space narrowing) was rated more severe at six months, when compared to patients whose RA first became symptomatic in summer (Odds Ratio (OR) =2.82 [1.14;7], p=0.0255). Furthermore, RA patients with their first symptoms in spring showed poorer radiographic outcome compared to summer-onset patients (OR=2.83 [1.10;7.37], p=0.0322), according to the results of a new study presented today at EULAR 2009, the Annual Congress of the European League Against Rheumatism in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Fertility Donor Debate, UK

Dr Gedis Grudzinskas the UK-based fertility expert issued the following statement in response to the statement by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority: 1)The term, fertility tourism trivialises the reality of poor and inadequate providing of services in UK. People seek cross border medical care for these reasons and only these reasons. Given the decline in health service in the public sector and escalating costs in the independent sector,it is natural to seek cost-effectiveness, or if you like value for money in all aspects of our lives including health care be it infertility or orthopaedic surgery. 2)The donor anonymity issue will not go away and it will continue to compromise our ability to interest women and men to make their gametes available before the fertility treament of less fortunate couples.In Italy the restrictive law was not changed but another law permitting a more liberal approach was achieved by pressure on the Government. If it is possible in Italy, then why not here. A simple opt in/out clause is all that is required to remove the greatest latest barrier to sperm and egg donation..... 3)Payment/compensation for donors is practised safely and effectively in a number of counties so once again,why not here.The regulator has finally acknowledged that payment in kind has bee practised for several years, setting the financial benchmark for "donor" eggs. The next step, although apparently bold, is not a big one to take. Fertility Focus
