Stress & Overeating, Understanding The Connection (10.6.15) Cleveland Clinic
Stress can lead to overeating and weight gain through complex interactions between the body's stress response systems and eating behaviors. In the short term, stress hormones like cortisol suppress appetite but prolonged stress causes cortisol levels to remain elevated, stimulating appetite and food cravings, especially for high fat and sugary foods. Research links stress to weight gain, especially in people who are already overweight due to elevated insulin levels. Non-food activities like exercise, meditation, social support and relaxing activities can help manage stress better than turning to food.

Research links stress to weight gain, especially in people who are already overweight due to elevated insulin levels. Non-food activities like exercise, meditation, social support and relaxing activities can help manage stress better than turning to food.
Stress can lead to overeating through hormonal and physiological pathways. In the short term, stress hormones like corticotropin-releasing hormone suppress appetite, but the hormone cortisol increases appetite if stress persists. High cortisol levels combined with high insulin levels may cause people to overeat high fat, high sugar "comfort foods" that reduce stress in the brain. Long term stress is associated with weight gain through changes in eating, sleep, and exercise behaviors. Managing stress through meditation, exercise, social support, therapy and relaxing activities can help prevent overeating and better cope with stress.

Patients with epilepsy may experience seizures that are difficult to control despite diligent treatment with medications. When medications are not keeping the symptoms at bay, or when they are causing undesirable side effects, then sometimes more advanced solutions are the answer. At Cleveland Clinic’s Epilepsy Center, we strongly believe the burden of epilepsy extends beyond a “seizure count”. Join Cleveland Clinic pediatric epileptologist Elaine Wyllie, MD, to explore the most modern treatments for children with seizures.
The LEOPARD study is a prospective, randomized, multicenter trial comparing the AFX endograft system to alternative EVAR devices. The study aims to provide a head-to-head comparison of outcomes and costs in a real-world patient population. The primary endpoint is survival without aneurysm-related complications at 12 months. Secondary analyses will evaluate outcomes up to 5 years post-procedure. The study is powered to show superiority of the AFX system and will provide a valuable reference for guiding future EVAR treatment strategies and technology developments.

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection caused by the Borrelia burgdorferi bacterium transmitted through the bite of infected blacklegged ticks. Common symptoms include a characteristic bullseye rash and flu-like symptoms such as fever, headache, and fatigue. Left untreated, later symptoms can include joint pain and neurological problems. Diagnosis is made through physical examination, patient history, and laboratory tests. Antibiotics are highly effective in treating Lyme disease if administered early after infection. Preventive measures include using insect repellent, wearing protective clothing, and carefully checking for ticks after being outdoors.
Lyme disease is a tick-borne illness caused by the Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria transmitted through the bite of an infected blacklegged tick; the highest risk areas are the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Symptoms may include a characteristic bullseye rash called erythema migrans along with fever, headache, and fatigue, and if left untreated it can spread to the joints, heart and nervous system.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.
