It turns out that smelly condition has a name: high altitude flatus expulsion, or HAFE. Its discoverers—the pioneers of alpine flatulence—are Dr. Paul Auerbach, Redlich Family Professor Emeritus at the Stanford University School of Medicine and a founder of the Wilderness Medical Society, and Dr. York Miller, professor of pulmonary and critical care medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.
A new study from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus is looking to identify how cannabis use impacts different kinds of users in unique ways. Anschutz medical toxicologist Dr. Michael Kosnett will test 90 people — those who use cannabis everyday, those who do so one or twice a week, and those who never — at a small brick house in Aurora. Since subjects imbibe on-site for the experiment, testing off-campus was essential.
Dr. John Tentler says it's more like false hope. Tentler is an associate director of education at the University of Colorado Cancer Center. In an oversimplified description of his job, he's also working on producing drugs to fight cancer. He says this report is suspect, especially without any peer-reviewed data. “I checked on their website; they haven’t published anything yet that I can see that would be referring to this type of anti-cancer drug,” Tentler said.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends breastfeeding mothers avoid alcohol but notes that an occasional or celebratory standard size drink (12 oz. of 5 percent beer) won’t be harmful to the baby. Because alcohol does enter breast milk within 30-60 minutes, the CDC recommends waiting a minimum of two hours after drinking before breastfeeding. Alcohol from three drinks will still be detected in breast milk six to eight hours later, and pumping and discarding the milk during that time window (known as “pumping and dumping”) won’t change that. Alexandra H. Antonioli, Ph.D., is completing a combined M.D./Ph.D. training at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. She is currently working with the ABC News Medical Unit.
A new study conducted by researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus shines a scientific light on something that many people have felt for a long time -humans and horses have a special bond and horses can help humans dealing with a variety of medical and physical conditions. The study looked specifically at how therapeutic horse back riding can help children on the autism spectrum.
Doctors often don’t perform genetic tests for Alzheimer’s because “we just don’t find that it’s very predictive,” says Dr. Jonathan Woodcock, clinical director of the Rocky Mountain Alzheimer’s Disease Center at the University of Colorado’s Anschutz Medical Campus.
The growth at the Anschutz medical, veterans and research further down Colfax Avenue and a proposed BRT system along that storied arterial make the G-word part of the neighborhood conversation. The possible impact of gentrification seems like too much for a neighborhood association to grapple with. But it can help residents save on food, leaving more for other basics, Roberts reasons.
Whether a couple get the disease at the same time or one after another is “the luck of the draw,” says Dr. Jonathan Woodcock, clinical director of the Rocky Mountain Alzheimer’s Disease Center at CU Anschutz. In the summer of 2016, a year after Tony, a doctor diagnosed Josie with Alzheimer’s disease. By then, Josie’s physical ailments already had landed her in a nursing home.
