|
Is there a link between older dads and genetic diseases? According to science the answer is yes. Fathers who are younger when they have children may pass on health benefits including good heart health when compared to men who father children at an older age. The study which determined this link between older dads and genetic diseases was made public in the Nature Genetics Journal, and it was led by Professor Andrew Wilkie, who is a professor at the University of Oxford. The study focuses on spermatocytic seminomas, which are found in the testes and are a rare tumor form. These tumors are caused because of a buildup of genetic mutations, and many men may develop them as they age. Most of the time they are benign, but the cells affect the genetic quality of the sperm produced. (more...) | |

Design of Hospital Facilities Plays Role in Patient Health
More research shows the design of hospital facilities plays role in patient health outcomes. Hospital design is now a much more inclusive process and incorporates the input from several teams of people including doctors and nurses who care for patients on a daily basis. Over 1500 studies show that proper design has overwhelming health benefits for patients and staff. Patient stress is reduced, medical errors are reduced, and cancer treatment and recovery rates improve. This kind of overwhelming evidence that the proper design of hospital facilities plays role in overall patient health has hospital administrators rethinking the way they want their hospitals to look and feel.

Study Ties Rare Disease to Parkinson’s
A recent study conducted by the National Institutes for Health has found a link between Gaucher’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. The results of the study ties rare disease called Gaucher’s to Parkinson’s disease because of a specific mutation in the gene that causes Gaucher’s. When a study ties rare disease factors that can cause another disease it can lead to significant health benefits due to possible new finding on disease behaviors and causes. The study has great potential that could eventually cause a decline in the disease that has plagued millions of people including celebrity Michael J. Fox and former NBA basketball player Brian Grant.
