Experts say the tradition of medicines in the Middle East has risen to high levels and has reached an 

end that could endanger the lives of patients.

Counterfeit drugs pose a serious threat to the lives of patients in the Middle East

The tradition of drugs in the past has not received much attention because it is seen as a problem that has had a major impact on Indian and Chinese markets, but the problem has spread throughout the world, affecting the lives of patients in the Middle East.

The tradition of drugs ranges from the illegal production of proprietary drugs to the production of counterfeit medicines. These practices have spread in recent months, partly because of the growing demand for ED drugs.

The consequences of taking antimicrobial drugs, many of which are made in unhealthy conditions and using dangerous or non-standard chemicals, are extremely detrimental to the health of the patient and are usually life-threatening. These drugs may lead to drug resistance, loss of confidence among patients, and doctors, pharmacists and other medical personnel.

The pharmaceutical industry, along with patients, has been severely affected by counterfeit drugs, with imitators trying to target commonly used prescription drugs, such as antibiotics and painkillers. Counterfeit medicines generally contain no more than baking soda or talcum powder, Sometimes on more hazardous substances, such as antifreeze. In the case of drugs that have an effect on the heart or blood pressure, the results may be fatal. In some cases, narcotic drugs were filled with distilled water or alcohol.

The distribution of unsafe drugs has increased significantly around the world, in light of the increased reports of patients receiving counterfeit drugs and taking them without knowledge. The casings of these medicines appear to be made with the quality and mastery of the original medicines. Counterfeit drug manufacturers imitate linear symbols, inner envelopes and even three-dimensional marks.

Patients recognize that prescription drugs are safe and effective. In many developed countries, drug-approved distribution systems have guaranteed a high degree of patient safety so far, although drug mimicking has quadrupled in recent years.

Various factors have contributed to the expansion of criminal counterfeiting activities, including the growing involvement in drug supply chains by unlicensed wholesalers and re-packaging agents, the flourishing of online pharmacies, and the movement of drug imports around the world.

Patients should consult with their doctors before changing their medication for whatever reasons they may need to change. Specific medicines for ED treatment may belong to the same category, and may have a different range of safety.

Technique (Yazarov)

Yazarov technology is one of the most modern technologies with the best therapeutic effect, and has achieved high medical progress in the treatment of bone fractures worldwide. It has proved successful in treating many congenital and acquired cases with high effectiveness, in addition to its suitability for different age groups.

Especially since this technique is involved in the treatment of one of the most common diseases and injuries in the world, bone injuries. To learn more about the advantages of this technique, we conducted this dialogue with Dr. Amer Othman Beek, Consultant Orthopedic Center to inform us of the treatment solutions provided by the technology of Yazarov in the area of ​​bone malformations:

Treat millions of cases

Technique (Yazarov

* Dr. Amer .. At the beginning we have a brief history about orthopedic technique (Alizarov).

Yazarov's orthopedic restoration is one of the most important branches of orthopedic surgery. It was developed by Dr. Geoffler A. Alizarov in 1951 and was attended by the American orthopedic surgeons who developed it in a better way. , And then spread this technique through them to all over the world, and through it to treat millions of cases that need this technology successfully, and despite the spread, but its presence and interest in the medical centers of the Third World, especially the Arab countries is very little.

Traditional methods fail

What are the actual uses of this technology?

The technique is widely used to treat all fractures, especially complex and intractable, which have failed traditional methods of treatment. This technique is a specialized branch in the treatment and orthodontics, so it requires sophisticated and skilled surgeons to use this technique, which is why it exists In particular medical centers. This technique is used in the use of external circular fixator for orthopedic repair, orthodontics, and correction of malformations. This technique offers therapeutic solutions for the most difficult bone problems, which include: short arm or leg length, , Treatment of bone curvature, treatment of congenital deformed or acquired limbs, treatment of bacterial bacterial disease, treatment of serious bone fractures, treatment of bone diseases resulting from inflammation or tumors of the process of fusion or adhesion of joints.

Treatment for adults and children

* Occurred bone malformations and injuries acquired in many cases, how to deal specifically with this technique?

Treatment options are available to adults and children, whether it is congenital malformation or acquired injury. This technique is used to prolong the limbs if the leg is short due to injury during growth, congenital causes and other causes of the limbs, Hormonal or structural or genetic causes, all these disorders can be treated with the technique of izarov.

Of course, this technique is applied to the affected bone area, and it is important not to forget to encourage the patient to walk after surgery.

Treatment of complex bone fractures

* Is this technique useful for fractures with extreme deformation and complexity?

The fractures that can not be cured are a common problem in developed countries, and the technique of izarov is an effective treatment method. All types of bone fractures and all ages can be treated. Complex fractures, especially open fractures and multiple fractures In the same bone), or the presence of fractures with the loss of some bones, and this applies to the deformities, whether congenital or acquired, or be a deformity or malformation of soft tissue, so that can treat the deformities of the feet and leg and limbs of any age.

Double bone elongation

* What are the causes of uneven height in the limbs? How far can it be treated?

- Causes are either congenital or congenital. Congenital defects are the length of the bones, and the unevenness of length may be due to acquired causes, such as infection, osteoporosis, pathological factors, or surgery resulting in bone growth During the growth and development, the technique can also extend the individual bone elongation, in addition to the elongation of the double bones in the same side injured at the same time, and elongation of two different bones of the two sides such as the femur in the tip and bone of the leg at the other end.

Treatment of Wrong bone healing

* Is this technique useful for cases of non-healing, which failed to heal by closed treatment methods such as gypsum or the use of normal orthopedic surgery?

- Yes, in addition to the possibility of taking advantage of this technique in the case of healing fracture of the bone in the wrong position, meaning that the greatness in a location other than its normal and has been healing, but with a deviation in the direction of grandeur in any of the three directions, unfortunately this problem is common In the countries of the third world as well as in the Arab countries, and if the fracture is not treated correctly and in a timely manner will be the problem of wrong healing, but it is effectively corrected by this technique, even if the deformity resulting from the wrong healing, which occurs due to improperly fix the bone Of direction, and be treated for The way of placing the tires and moving them with artificial hinges at the distorted end. The bone is broken by special technique. The deformity is gradually corrected in the direction of the bone. The bone is then corrected as any properly removed bone. The patient can carry weight on the floor and perform normal treatments during the healing process. .

Soft drinks increase the risk of asthma

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Certain foods contribute to or reduce the risk of severe asthma, according to a new study.

Do you still drink soft drinks? You will stop knowing these facts!

They identified the quality of foods eaten by a number of people with asthma, compared them with non-infected subjects, selected 25 nutrients and 47 food groups, monitored lung function, hyperactivity of the bronchus and other respiratory reactions of participants.

Experts noted that a particular group of foods affected an individual's asthma, such as whole-fat milk, butter, apples and pears, which reduced the chances of the disease and helped prevent it, while soft drinks, soda and cheese increased the risk significantly.

Medical edifices fall ...

Medical edifices fall ...

Medical edifices fall ...

May breathe through this title seeks to cause harm and says sarcastically, whether in Saudi Arabia medical edifices even fall ?! Bala will not be thrown to the forks scattered in question hated ... but baptized retain the title as it is probably also safe from the hands of those who stood lookout to allow him to post the aim of the confrontation, then it is open title did not specify where ramshackle edifices ... so why not at least tell me what?

The other team likes haphazardly charges against those who wrote it will claim I'm trying to demolish all medical achievements such a title, and this allegedly found Mkhrv the achievement bright as the sun can not palm regardless of the ability to move her fingers and expression to prevent the golden rays !.

Out today about this subject Molovi what was done long time ago to write about the remnants of terrorism and defeat the terrorists and the causes of extremism and violence in and out of the security and the outgrowth of our children wound sons of the homeland! What is the subject of such a relationship with those topics that have raised the ire of some, and avoided other, and introduced me which other, Lna for which some and some! The relationship is the people! General targeted people stab terrorism and targeted with a barrage achievements.

People Chlamydia national, her clothing, and sitting in the national houses modest, interested only live peacefully find shelter and housing, treatment and education, the most basic human rights of his dignity and belongs to a wealthy community ... If touched terrorism fear or anxiety or panic or mourn or dazzle ... remain to relate to the homeland through direct services in peace and suffering, and the most important thing people are interested health, medical service, which does not satisfy people's demand does not elevate them deliberately to transform their patients and escorts to their patients and the patients on the bad, and the citizens Aldhamaren and non Aldhamaren to equipped fraught with frustration and oppression and the desire packs change ready to surrender for the first promised to change conditions even if the promise on the back of a fragment! And do not even find Almchaion armed chance Serve the people's health, and persuaded the minds and mouths fed and blocked evil corrected outlets towards them! Everything else can be tolerated on the health compromised, however, calculated on living life and you are in the grip of pain !.

It is not known the value of wellness only faced death face to face with a cruel moment had not reckoned with an account! When caught on your neck pain Gorge would not wish at that moment precious treasure as much as you wish oxygen tube !.

And tribulations difficult learned if you do not kill us ... and perhaps the most beautiful in the ordeal hand extends to you through the darkness to Tefie light and hope and love around you in such is God's blessings on the beleaguered while test him in the calamity, then spared him a man carried with him find him if others slept or missed others or others wriggle! He finds affection and containment of the Sabra and lap and warmer and cohesion !.

It is my belief that the terminally ill of their cases afford their reality more whenever they found caregivers in distress if research studies submitted by measuring the effects of the disease on those who feel lonely and introverted and who find Alones companion for experience has proved that a human being with human being is equal to life, and that man alone death alive, and patients who find mates and loved ones more responsive to treatment than others deprived !.

From here if we can not stand by patients no less than to offer them health service they deserve without it, neither favors nor embarrassment! When I was writing this speech pitched News Bushra composition of the health services (12) members, and as usual in such as the composition of these boards citizen does not know what are the intended targets of the Council? What strategy planned? What means taken to achieve its objectives? So just Bishara news but details of the unseen is not right to know the citizen, and from my point of view it is time to eliminate blackout on news style although it is a beautiful story! Except that the role of these councils as if honoring honorees shine bright ... and give them a chance to Itbuua all media image space! As it often includes administrative leaders in the same field of health Service Board means the collection of the famous hospital administrators and outspoken over Berwaz themes in it! The question of who is a citizen of the Board referred to? They will say all of its members are citizens! Yes, all of them Saudis ... but this is a reservoir of illness in the interpretation of the concept of Saudization, where it is interpreted the Saudi set and enough while it is not sufficient honorary interface where the user Saudis, this is a foregone conclusion importantly to express what ?! What exactly is his role? What is the effectiveness of the task entrusted to him? Then an innocent question whether across the board for all areas of Saudi Arabia? Or is it the discretion to honor prominent in high-profile areas! And above their responsibilities to bear the responsibility of the Council and bite tightly, as if we do not have is these busy to occupy again !.

In any case presumably with all the news of the establishment clarify the Council is required by the Board and the quality of its services and its objectives and means until it is judged on its validity in the public interest because we are in a national stage assume dealing with minds conscious available in every sector and every place of our land good away from the trend towards the ignorant people or not trust their perceptions and awareness. In my opinion, Personal Health Service Board could result in a more effective role if it looked beyond the first row in prominent hospitals means tried to vaccinate his choosing, for example, the third administrative grade, or senior experienced doctors or consultants working within their clinics regularly stuck with patients and know their problems, and so on. As for reducing the roles and precisely fitted to managers who are already in the interface type of rotation around the problem and not a serious attempt to solve !.

If we look at the reality of the health service is not new to say that the medical edifices not only upright Barakazatan basic humans and equipment, and achieve success for their roles through the first two roads funding and spending and the second the quality of health service provided to the 

community.

In Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia unfair denial of human numbers working in the medical profession growth are on the increase if we compare where we are Balbdayat confined to the introduction of human efficiency from other countries even if they were not efficient! Just to fill the vacancy in professions needed by the health service.

Today the situation is totally disagree and the number of Saudis fit for ostentation them in front of the world, but from my point of view the Saudi doctor specifically seeks to career position illustrious than seeking to innovative excellence in the performance of his medical career, most of them are now dependent on their personal relationships to gain access to leadership positions gleaming thus far distance between the Saudi doctor and get international awards such as the King Faisal International Prize in Medicine! If this half-truth to say that the Saudi Vncefha other medical climate created this tight situation to the position in the medical professions practices Why ?! Because what is to shine a doctor in his field until his appointment as director of the hospital where he works as if its proper recognition as a doctor to be a director! Most of the administrative leaders came from its core functions as doctors wanted in their specialties !.

This is in addition to the media spotlight focuses on the leaderboard and looking for hardworking! Unfortunately, that is not necessarily every successful director of a successful doctor and on the other hand, the prevailing uncertainty in the medical climate led to the emergence of types of Saudi doctors. Type suffers from a sense of grandeur, and the type of suffering from a sense of oppression and frustration and everything in between so watery kind that is necessary as a necessity of water but exercised his elaborate mechanism not they have a non-attendance in a timely manner whenever possible, and the latter to understand the soft experience category that belonged for the job and is still without experience make them take a position for or against. There is no doubt there are persistent type, but is not expected to advance as far as waiting for a smile to the lips of the patient! This environment demolishes medical edifices of buildings equipped! Is it enough to be a hospital building or city ?! Return to reality can be asked the following question: If the Ministry of Health was established in 1370 e 1951, and then followed in the nineties Hijra others to provide medical services such as the National Guard, the Ministry of Defense and Aviation, and Ministry of Interior, and the Ministry of Higher Education and the King Faisal Specialist Hospital, the light of this how many major hospitals operating in the capital such as Riyadh?!.

The reality of the situation says after thirteen Minister of Health by Dr. Hamad Al Mana, it has other cuff after budgets were at a time, focusing on the health sector and not on other sectors and give generously to exceed one-third of the overall budget after all of this in Riyadh large hospital and one became very humility affiliated with the Ministry of Health is what he called recently (medical complex) and there is no specialized hospital refers to the specialization superior in practice, but if we consider chest Diseases Hospital, which specialized groaning or psychiatric dark upon Hospital Hospital specialist !.

The King Fahd Medical City, it is our duty at this moment to pay tribute to the current health minister who did not do what his predecessors ... how many times in the past years, announces the opening of this hospital and then folded into oblivion news that Dr. Mana came in less than three months after Altozar the hospital was operating !

Is this enough after all this age, these stages? If we are in front of the reality confirms that a healthy harvest was not commensurate with planting seeds! And sowed did not satisfy the needs of capital and how this capital receives from the various regions of the Kingdom of all categories of patients, including those in need of medical attention for his broken hip or pelvis! What remained of public hospitals in areas serviced just limited curative and preventive more atrophy numbers Where draws citizen neutral feeling of security if the people who are the people the nation and its people and its people is it!?.

Where the General Medical Education under the shade of the Ministries of Health from 1370 e? Where hospitals and health centers working right and Hakiq and not just numbers? Where is the current health center just a chance to get a transfer to the nearest hospital for failing to provide the necessary examination of the patient to radiation or require planning or radiography CT ?! It is the most basic medical procedures, medical Srouhna has succeeded Yes in providing vaccinations polio, meningitis and otherwise Look around you there is a problem in the public health service and he inherited the current minister over the years accumulate, while third-party medical hospitals made extraordinary efforts in some specialized areas, however arguably the technical and medical slack crawls to the loss of viable successfully ... such as atrophy of the spirit of a collaborative team in diagnosis and treatment, such as the isolated administration associated with their betterment through decisions only and not field knowledge, and like judging the performance through personal relationships than is the reality of work and production and, like the lack of clear regulation advertiser, and the lack of the spirit of proactive and honor the efforts and not the people and so on of the crippling ailments that made, for example, a hospital such as the Specialist in the flaccid state makes the patient Muqtadir aimed Public him to the ground no regrets as long as the medical issue turned to the issue of reviewing and ostentation and limit the type of personal revenge! The hospitals in the National Guard if we pointed out to the King Fahd Hospital in Riyadh as a measure must be equitable mention the role of Dr. Fahad Al-Jabbar although he scooped Donna from other doctors who have assumed management positions won the largest number of opponents and detractors of his style, but he laid the foundations of the hospital McKenna live the smell of the current administration, which is not enough reliance on the famous physician, Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabiah known that he found himself strongly as director of light and the speed of sound! But it is the right place where pediatric surgeon, and the hospital of the armed forces his will gradually eased administrative dispersion and the lack of qualified medical excellence and the inability to develop performance and management & Materials! The university hospitals Such as do the orphan! It is a shame not to kindness orphan !.

The solutions ...? And how the confrontation with the future? Today show ... On the last detail! Thank I say it honestly and gratitude for several individual doctors and their grandmother in the Specialist Hospital and the King Fahd Hospital, the security forces ... who were with the arduous journey from despair to hope the arms of humanity does not forget ... I will never forget them ... and another pause! And me greeting and peace.

Milk reduces the risk of bowel cancer.

Milk reduces the risk of bowel cancer

Dairy consumption significantly raises the risk of

US researchers reported that eating yogurt may reduce the risk of bowel cancer. Scientists have concluded from the Women's Hospital and Brigham and Women of America that drinking 16 ounces of milk decrease the likelihood of developing bowel cancer by 12%. The scientists subjected the ten previous studies, the results of research and revision. These ten studies involving more than half a million people, including 5,000 suffering from bowel cancer. US scientists and dissemination of the results of recent studies in the Journal of the American National Cancer Institute.

It is noteworthy that bowel cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide.

The study showed that the different diets from person to person might explain the difference in cancer rates from one country to another.

A previous study has been conducted on animals have shown that calcium, which is available in milk and milk products in general may protect against bowel cancer.

Calcium levels

The researchers studied the consumption of dairy products people by providing them with useful substance calcium.

But the study showed that milk alone is the one who reduces the risk of cancer, particularly cancers of the colon and rectum.

The study also concluded that eating larger amounts of calcium decline is linked to the risk of bowel cancer.

The scientists found that eating more than a thousand milligrams of calcium per day may reduce the risk of bowel cancer in women by 15% and men 10%.

The researchers explained, led by Dr. Aaonyanj Chu, they concluded that the results to support the theory that drinking milk, calcium moderately reduces the risk of bowel cancer theory.

Scientists did not discover the existence of a significant decline in the risk of bowel cancer in eating other dairy including cheese and yogurt products.

On the other hand, some experts believe that dairy products may increase the risk of other types of cancer, including breast and prostate cancer.

He described Dr Richard Sullivan, head of clinical programs British Cancer Research Center, the latest results as "exciting."

He added, "it concludes this type of studies to dramatic results but it soon proved to be incorrect, so do not people have to be saved from this study that drinking milk each day Siqihm the incidence of bowel cancer. No specific mechanism research makes yogurt able to prevent a show cancer. "

Sullivan pointed out that the safest way to reduce the risk of bowel cancer is to follow a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables and foods that contain a large amount of fiber and little fat red meat and processed.

How our ancestors avoided cancer

How our ancestors avoided cancer

How our ancestors avoided cancer

Cancer is a disease accompanied by most of the neighborhoods in one way or another. We all know someone who has had the look overall picture is encouraging with incidence rates rising year after year.

This steady increase is largely explained by the fact that the population grow older at a steady rate but it is also linked to unhealthy lifestyles, smoking and obesity.

And then what about our ancestors? Have you faced a life shortened by cancer or were they healthier than modern man?

According to research conducted on the skeletons dating back thousands of years that the cancer was not this something they encountered people frequently.

Conducted by Dr. Mario Slaus of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Zagreb tests on the skeletal remains of more than three thousand people for evidence of neoplasms in abnormal tissue growth is difficult to control it.

The back bone in the academic year of 5300 BC to the ninth century AD and had been collected from archaeological sites across Croatia.

Analysis revealed four cases of tumors in three or four people, ranging in age from 50 to 60 years.

The findings revealed four cases involved bone neoplasms, but all were benign, with little potential to become malignant.

Said Dr. Slaus: "We found no evidence of secondary bone tumors in any individual in the collection, a factor that can Nstodha from the fact that the mean age of death is 35.6 years."

He added: "bone tumors, malignant and benign relatively rare, even in young people who have a higher incidence of these tumors, while secondary bone tumors are associated with older age, although it is more common." Methods of modern life

And Dr. Slaus point of view is that the cause of premature death for our ancestors probably due to common diseases and they may not have survived long enough for cancer to take hold.

The study showed that the average life expectancy in the atheist and the twentieth century than his record in the past and this is mainly due to better nutrition, improved health awareness and health promotion
