Docosahexaenoic Acid for Reading, Cognition and Behavior in Children Aged 7�…

Omega-3 fatty acids are dietary essentials, and the current low intakes in most modern developed countries are believed to contribute to a wide variety of physical and mental health problems. Evidence from clinical trials indicates that dietary supplementation with long-chain omega-3 may improve child behavior and learning, although most previous trials have involved children with neurodevel…

Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplementation for the Treatment of Children With Attenti…

Several studies have demonstrated differences in omega-3 fatty acid composition in plasma and in erythrocyte membranes in patients with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) compared with unaffected controls. Omega-3 fatty acids have anti-inflammatory properties and can alter central nervous system cell membrane fluidity and phospholipid composition. Cell membrane fluidity can alter s…

Cognitive enhancement by omega-3 fatty acids from child-hood to old age: Find…

Omega-(n)-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are major components of neuronal membranes and have a wide range of functions, from modulating synaptic plasticity and neurochemistry, to neuroimmune-modulation and neuroprotection. Thus, it is not surprising that n-3 PUFA are widely acknowledged to have cognitive-enhancing effe…

Low Blood Long Chain Omega-3 Fatty Acids in UK Children Are Associated with P…

Omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA), especially DHA (docosahexaenonic acid) are essential for brain development and physical health. Low blood Omega-3 LC-PUFA have been reported in children with ADHD and related behavior/learning difficulties, as have benefits from dietary supplementation. Little is known, however, about blood fatty acid status in the general child popul…

The use of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate for the symptomatic treatment of osteoarthritis has been a subject of controversy for several reasons. First, the medical community in general took offense at the title of Theodosakis’ book, The Arthritis Cure. Second, the medical community is becoming divided into “traditional” and “alternative” camps with deep skepticism between them. …

Ultrasound-guided intra-articular triamcinolone acetonide injection for treat…

To investigate the efficiency and clinical safety of intra-articular triamcinolone acetonide (TA) injection under the guide of ultrasonography combined with standard treatment for treating refractory small joints arthritis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. TA was injected upon confirmation of the needle inserting into the articular cavity. The dose was 40mg for the wrist, 20mg for the m…

COMPARED EFFICACY OF INTRA-ARTICULAR INJECTION OF METHYLPREDNISOLONE AND TRIA…

To compare the effect of two different corticosteroid types in bilateral and symmetrical knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: One hundred and twenty-six patients received injections of methylprednisolone acetate (MP) in one knee and triamcinolone hexacetonide (TH) in the contralateral knee. Patients were evaluated before injection and 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks after. Results: Mean patient age …

The comparison of dexamethasone and triamcinolone periarticular administratio…

Intraoperative periarticular injection of corticosteroid efectively reduces perioperative pain in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, which corticosteroid is most efective for intraoperative periarticular injection remains controversial. We compared the efects of corticosteroids between dexamethasone and triamcinolone acetonide periarticular administration for reducing pain and postoperativ…
