There are 2 institutions has begun and is suspected of committing such practices, the California Institution for Women in Corona and Valley State Prison for Women in Chowchilla prison who is now a man. Surprisingly, there are female prisoners who undergo the surgery while pregnant.

Former inmates and officers reported that the prison medical staff to target women who are considered to have the possibility to come back again later jailed.

"As soon as he knew that I had 5 children, he suggested that I want to live it. Closer to my release date, the more she talked about it. He made me feel like a bad mother if I do not do it," said Cordero as reported NewSer, Tuesday (09/07/2013).

Cordero was released in 2008 and now lives in Upland, California. He would eventually undergo tubectomy, even though she wished never did.

Martin, who is a licensed psychologist is also claimed that some women, especially those addicted to drugs or homeless, tend to accidentally get pregnant and then commit a crime so they can get back to the jail to get better health care.

"Did I criticize the women who manipulate the system because they are pregnant? Of course not. But I do not think it should happen. And I want to find ways to reduce them," said Martin.

He also denied having approved the tubectomy operation on female prisoners, but the document says there are at least 60 tubectomy procedures performed at Valley State when Martin served there. His partner in prison California Institution for Women, Dr. Jacqueline Long, declined to comment.

Tokyo, It is common knowledge that people who are obese are prone to diabetes, heart attack, and stroke. Not only that, obesity can also increase the risk of some types of cancer such as cancer of the esophagus, colorectal, pancreatic, and other cancers.

The researchers found a correlation between obesity and the likelihood of a person developing liver cancer. Obesity causes significant changes in the microbes living in the gut. Changes in the microbes to stimulate existing bacteria release chemicals that damage DNA and cause tumor progression.

Written in the journal Nature, a team of researchers led by Eiji Hara of the Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research in Tokyo explains how they induce cancer in mice by giving newborn pups with carcinogens. Carcinogen known to produce various types of tumors.

Then, they gave half of the rats eating a normal diet and the other half with the high-fat diet. All mice fed a high-fat diet, liver cancer cells growing. While mice on a normal diet did not. Separately, researchers also gave a carcinogen in mice that are genetically obese and they are not given a high-fat diet. As a result, the cancer cells spread well. This suggests that obesitaslah that cause cancer, not diets fed to rats.

The research team also uses the signal to track bioluminscent chemicals in mice that causes the cell closures as the network age. Found that mice with a greater risk of liver cancer, contain more chemicals such. Cancer is also associated with dementia.

Researchers found certain bacteria in obese mice. In subsequent experiments, the bacteria secreted with bile acids and produce deoxycholic acid (DCA), which can damage DNA and create a senile person.

Giving antibiotics to eliminate microbial DCA shown to reduce the risk of liver cancer. "It is clear that the increased production of DCA caused by intestinal bacteria that is closely linked to obesity and liver cancer," write the authors of the study, as reported by the LA Times, Tuesday (09/07/2013).

In an editorial accompanying the study, Harvard researchers, Suzanne Devkota and Peter J. Turnbaugh said that Japanese scientists found a reasonable relationship between DCA and liver cancer. "Metabolism of bile acids and microbes can create a mechanism that resulted in disaster for our health, and it all resulted from our behavior at the dinner table," they wrote.

The study also shows how the microbes living in the human body affects health for the better or worse.

What To Do When Looking At Person Having Heart Disease?

Indonesia, heart attacks often occur suddenly and can be fatal. Patients must race against time to save his life. In urban areas are often jammed, traffic condition often becomes an obstacle. So what can be done when an emergency?


"If the patient into unconsciousness and cardiac arrest ya need CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation). But if there is no previous training, hard. Especially in our (Indonesian), CPR training is almost zero," said Dr. Dick Hanafi, SpJP (K), FIHA , heart specialists in Mother Hospital, Jakarta.

In the event Gathering Medical and Heart Centre Soft Launching Mother held on Mother Hospital, Menteng, Central Jakarta, and was written on Monday (08/07/2013), Dr. Dicky explained that in developed countries, traning CPR is a requirement to receive SIM. In contrast to Indonesia, to obtain the applicant's driver's license was still able to 'shoot'.

"As for the layman, it is generally not much that can be done to save the patient's heart attack, it could make a late handling patient was taken to the proper treatment," said Dr. Dick.

Therefore, Dr. Dick argues that better efforts are focused on finding ways to carry and transport the patient to the hospital as soon as possible. Usually some hospitals have emergency team. This probably needs to be constrained in collaboration with the office in order to get the fast service.

"Implementation of CPR is difficult for the layman. We can prepare oxygen used for initial treatment. So should prepare oxygen in office. Due heart deprived of oxygen, it is expected that no part of the body gets more oxygen faster," he explained.

Giving CPR course is actually very necessary. For the wider community, it is useful because it can be used to help others. Unfortunately, the educational importance of handling emergency patients in Indonesia is still very minimal. But for those who want to practice, can take lessons at the Red Cross and hospitals.

Whereas in cardiac patients, the bottom line is no one can predict how long a patient can survive. If an attack happens quite large, the patient could have died instantly. However, not a few patients who can still be saved, as long as a doctor to get treatment as soon as possible.

"Time is a maximum of 12 hours for those who still survive from a heart attack. Thereafter, permanent damage to his heart so that his life will also be less good," said Dr. Dick.

Best treatment for heart attack patients is under 3 hours, usually because the damage can still be repaired with almost perfect. At 6 hours after the attack, the damage is still small.

"But in the 12 hours, most patients have been exposed to heart failure or a weak heart. So it's not just a matter of saving lives alone. Handling heart if late, to heart failure, heart failure and already congested road a bit, sorry for all patients," said Dr. Dick

According to one British citizen who voluntarily acquire HIV, call Nick (30), there are hundreds of men have been meeting in online forums, Facebook and Twitter to find and spread HIV. This trend began in the U.S. as an unusual way to get sexual satisfaction.

As reported by the Daily Mirror, Monday (08/07/2013), Nick said that in online forums, many people who meet and try to transmit the deadly virus. In fact, some bug chaser claim this dangerous disease even improve the quality of life of having to take medication regularly.

Liver function I checked every 3 months, my cholesterol checked regularly and my many general health checkup so that if there is a strange condition, I immediately knew," said Nick the day-to-day work as the admin of this company.

In 2012, a total of 73 659 people in the UK being treated for HIV infection. As many as 43 percent of whom are gay or bisexual. This figure has increased 58 percent over the last 10 years. In the same year, the British government spent 840 million pounds, or around Rp 12.4 trillion for the treatment of HIV with an average of 10,000 pounds or approximately USD 148 million per patient.

"This practice is very scary and very irresponsible. What we see, the more there are many cases of treatment failure and rapidly declining health conditions," said Simon Prytherch of the Elton John Aids Foundation.

In the U.S., this phenomenon is believed first appeared in 1999. Investigations conducted by Rolling Stone magazine in 2003 claimed, a quarter of all new HIV infections in the U.S. related to the phenomenon of the rise of the bug chaser.

In the UK, a similar inquiry or investigation has not been done. But a Facebook group created to facilitate the bug chaser has been like by 1,172 people. While in the U.S., a site that became the meeting point of people infected with the bug chaser has had more than 5,000 members.

Nick who contracted HIV while in 2011 it had joined the site about 2 years ago. In order to catch the disease, he admitted having unprotected sex with more than 1,000 men, most of whom he knew HIV positive.

When first diagnosed with HIV, Nick wrote on his Facebook "Tested positive on 21st September and totally loving it! Wanna share with any chasers, CD4 is 971, VL 100,000 - nice and toxic!" or means "Tested positive on September 21 and absolutely loved it! Want to share with the hunter, his CD4 971, VL 100,000 - good and poisonous"!

CD4 count refers to the number of white blood cells, whereas VL stands for 'viral load' which indicates how likely a person will transmit the virus to others. Viral Load on the figure of 100,000 as of very high transmission. Since diagnosis, Nick admitted that he had unprotected sex with 20 men.

Meanwhile, The Terence Higgins Trust, a charity concerned with the issue of HIV / AIDS response that although only a small percentage of people who participate in this dangerous activity, they recommend to gay and bisexual men to protect themselves from HIV and other sexually transmitted infections with wear a condom.
