More than half of female patients What are the prevention and treatments for varicose veins?
According to data from the National Health Insurance Corporation, about 210,000 patients received treatment for varicose veins in 2020. More than half of them were found to be women. If venous insufficiency, which is the cause of varicose veins, is left untreated, it can cause problems such as edema, pigmentation, and skin ulcers, so caution is required.
Varicose veins are a disease in which the lower extremity veins, which are blood vessels that transport blood from the lower extremities to the heart, dilate tortuously by more than 3 mm, causing problems in returning blood from the periphery to the heart. Main symptoms include heaviness in the lower extremities, fatigue, swelling, itching, cramping, throbbing, burning, and pain that occurs when standing for a long time.
The cause of varicose veins is ‘venous insufficiency’, where blood normally delivered to the periphery has problems returning to the heart due to problems with the veins. Risk factors for venous insufficiency include female sex, obesity, family history, advanced age, pregnancy, and occupation or lifestyle habits that involve standing for long periods of time.
Professor Lee Sang-ah of the Department of Vascular Surgery at Soonchunhyang University Bucheon Hospital said, “In particular,

Precision screening shows: 16 percent of women under 49 are at risk of genetic breast cancer
#Precision #screening #shows #percent #women #risk #genetic #breast #cancer
BRIGHT studies (Be RIGHT with Breast Cancer Risk Management) was launched in 2022 and aims to evaluate precision screening using individual genetic risks in healthcare in Sweden, Estonia and Portugal. In Sweden, the study is led by the Academic Hospital/Region Uppsala.
– We are surprised that so many young women showed an increased genetic risk for breast cancer. According to the preliminary results, roughly 16 percent of women aged 30–49 have an estimated higher breast cancer risk than the average for 50-year-old women. With the increased risk, affected women are recommended to book a consultation at the breast cancer clinic to discuss individually adapted screening strategies and preventive measures, says Inna Feldman, health economist and project manager for the study in Uppsala.
In Sweden, breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Here, women aged 40–74 are called to mammographic screening with the aim of detecting breast cancer as early as possible and reducing mortality.

Over 11% of Children in the US Diagnosed with ADHD, According to National Center for Health Statistics Report
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects approximately 11 percent of children aged 5 to 17 in the United States, as reported by the National Center for Health Statistics. This condition is characterized by differences in brain development and activity, resulting in symptoms such as inattentiveness, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
The data gathered for this report was collected from interviews conducted between 2020 and 2022. Researchers ensured representation from various households across the country to create a comprehensive understanding of ADHD prevalence.
It is important to note that while many children experience occasional struggles with attentiveness and organization, those diagnosed with ADHD face more frequent challenges. The severity of these struggles can vary among individuals affected by this medical condition.
Gender Disparities
Research findings reveal that ADHD has a higher prevalence among boys compared to girls (14.5 percent versus 8 percent). This gender disparity requires further investigation to determine potential underlying factors that may contribute to these differences.
Age Differences
- 12 Years and Older: Youths aged 12 years or older are more likely to receive an ADHD diagnosis compared to those younger than 12 years old. This indicates that the condition can extend into adolescence and adulthood,
New Study Reveals AI-Based Approach to Explore Gut Bacterias Influence on Alzheimers Disease
Research Reveals New Insights into Gut Bacteria’s Influence on Alzheimer’s Disease
In a groundbreaking study published in Cell Reportsscientists have employed a cutting-edge systems biology approach that combines artificial intelligence (AI), genetics, and multi-omics analyses to investigate how metabolites produced by gut bacteria may affect the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
Identification of Specific Receptors Opens Doors for Therapeutic Breakthroughs
This groundbreaking study has successfully pinpointed specific receptors in the human body that interact with these gut bacteria-derived metabolites, providing potential avenues for therapeutic intervention. These significant findings pave the way for the development of novel drugs that can specifically target these interactions, bringing hope for treating and preventing Alzheimer’s disease.
The Devastating Impact of Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects older adults, causing a decline in cognitive functions, such as memory and reasoning. The accumulation of amyloid-beta plaques and tau protein tangles in the brain disrupts neural function and results in cell death.
The Multifaceted Causes of Alzheimer’s
The precise cause of Alzheimer’s disease is still not fully understood. However, researchers believe that it is influenced by a combination of genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors that impact the brain over time.

Eat red meat with a green salad, recommends Harvard
In an effort to promote healthy eating backed by science, Harvard University has released a series of dietary recommendations for the general public. These guidelines, developed by nutrition experts, offer clear, practical advice to improve dietary quality and promote a healthier lifestyle.
Recommendations focus on consuming red meat with green salads to maximize health benefits and long-lasting cellular vitality. This is due to the synergy between vitamin B12, present in red meat, and folic acid, contained in green leafy vegetables.
Vit amin B12 plays a crucial role in folate absorption, as well as cell replication and cell division, processes critical for cell regeneration and renewal throughout the body.
Likewise, folic acid collaborates with this vitamin to maintain a balance in the production of red and white blood cells, thus promoting an optimal immune system and adequate tissue oxygenation.
