Mitochondrial dysfunction has been identified as an important factor in many diseases and conditions beyond primary mitochondrial disease, including autism, ALS, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and diabetes. Exposure to toxins via medication, lifestyle, and the environment may lead to mitochondrial dysfunction, cell damage and organ dysfunction. Join us this month with Dr. Kendall Wallace, Ph.D., DABT, ATS to learn more about mitochondrial disorders which may be acquired by or aggravated by toxins. Dr. Wallace’ primary area of research is the mechanisms of involvement of mitochondria in the origination of metabolic diseases which may be caused by toxicity. - See more at: http://www.mitoaction.org/blog/mitochondrial-disease-and-toxins#sthash.PyxCUqlF.dpuf

Mitochondrial diseases are characterized by a high clinical and genetic heterogeneity and a growing number of genes of mitochondrial disease has been identified. Mitochondrial diseases follow any mode of inheritance, due to the twofold genetic origin of RC components (nuclear DNA and mitochondrial DNA). 1 000 to 1 500 nuclear genes encode mitochondrial proteins. Approximately 250 of these genes have been reported as disease causing. These genes not only encode the various subunits of each respiratory chain complex, but also the ancillary proteins involved in the different stages of holoenzyme biogenesis, transcription, translation, chaperoning, addition of prosthetic groups and assembly of proteins, as well as the various enzymes involved in mtDNA maintenance. Some of these genes are associated with well defined syndromes but more and more are specific to one patient or family only, hampering to establish genotype-phenotype correlations. The clinical heterogeneity of these disorders makes the diagnosis difficult especially in the first years of the clinical course and other genetic diseases can present an overlapping phenotype. Therefore only the identification of the disease causing mutation allows to certainly establish the diagnosis of mitochondrial disease.
Dr. Rötig (PhD) is the head of the group working on mitochondrial diseases in Necker Hospital (Paris). This group has initially settled and integrated platform of clinic, biochemistry and molecular analysis to investigate patients with OXPHOS disease. The scientific field of this group is the identification of genes involved in mitochondrial disorders and the investigation of their pathophysiology. They have described the first non-neuromuscular presentation of mitochondrial diseases and characterized the very first mutations in nuclear genes resulting in defects of Krebs’s cycle or the respiratory chain.
Exchange is the primary data store and means of communication for all levels within the organization. The ability to audit and report in detail Exchange change events that take place on a daily basis helps maintain security and sustain compliance. Implementing an effective auditing strategy for MS Exchange is a necessity to secure and maintain this critical business asset. This whitepaper outlines not only the reasons for having an Exchange auditing procedure in place but also those must-have qualities of any successful MS Exchange auditing effort.

Magnets - Not Drugs: TMS IMMH San Antonio 2014Louis Cady, MD
In this talk, Dr. Cady covers a remarkable new treatment for depression: transcranial magnetic stimulation. The historical roots of this treatment are traced, followed by a review of the literature in terms of the proven efficacy of this treatment. A comparison with ECT shows that TMS has a very favorable profile, with remarkably fewer side effects and incredibly better tolerated side effects compared to ECT. Given that this was a "CME" talk, off-label uses of TMS were reviewed, including stepping stones for future avenues to explore

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.
