in study a new tool to facilitate the individualization of treatment in patients with hepatitis C

experts gather in Barcelona at the meeting of researchers on the study HRUBEJ

-healing of the sick rates have increased from 12% to 70%, in just a few years, thanks to standard treatment, pegylated interferon + Ribavirin

– there are new factors prognosis that help predict the chances of cure for patients before starting treatment, thereby facilitating the identification of the

-some of these factors depend on the virus (such as viral load and genotype) and others (the degree of liver disease) patient(: fibrosis and metabolic disorders). If analysed, can determine the chances of cure of the patients, ranging from a 0 – 10% up to 90-100%

-more than 80 hospitals participating in the study HRUBEJ and currently has almost recruited half of the sample. This study seeks to develop a tool to predict the impact of these prognostic factors and identify those patients most likely response

-the study will respond to what the real impact of the IL28B in the treatment of hepatitis C with standard therapy; what subgroup of patients presents more than 80% cure rate andtherefore hardly improved with treatments based on triple therapy; and have a tool to make decisions when new drugs are available in the market

Barcelona, September 2011- hepatitis C is a disease very prevalent that affects millions of people around the world. Despite this, Dr. Ricard Solà, head of the section of hepatology of the Hospital of the sea Barcelona, underscores that, “ unlike other viruses, hepatitis C can cure ”. ” Moreover adds Dr. Manuel Romero, head of the service of digestive system of the Hospital of Valme in Seville – is a condition that you we have been gaining ground slowly thanks to standard therapy, pegylated interferon + Ribavirin and new antiviral ”.

We live in a scenario where the rates of healing of the sick have increased 12% to 70% in just a few years, “ and where new factors Outlook help us predict the chances of cure for patients before starting the treatment ”, indicates Dr. Romero.

Many parameters that help make treatments, specialists are known “ as, for example, according to the kinetics of the virus during treatment, taking into account the first time that the virus becomes negative ”, explains Dr. Solá. “ Some of these factors depend on the virus (such as viral load and genotype) and others of the patient (the degree of liver disease: fibrosis and metabolic disorders). If analyzed, can determine the chances of cure for patients ranging from 0 – 10% up to 90-100% ”, argues Dr. Romero.

Recently, it has discovered a polymorphism of each person who predicts quite accurately the chances of cure of each individual. “ El IL28B helps us discover those patients with double therapy can cure almost 90% of potential ”, says Dr. Solá. “ Therefore, – adds – joins the other indicators which are of vital importance as they help us to explain it to the patient the possibilities of cure, and also to plan the treatment ”.

In this context, arises the need to develop a tool to predict the impact of these prognostic factors and to identify those patients most likely response. With these objectives was born the HRUBEJ study, already underway, and with half of the recruited patients and more than 80 hospitals in all Spain already involved. “ Our goal is to reach the sample to be able to optimize therapies and, therefore, resources ”, says Dr. Romero.

Yesterday was held in Barcelona the meeting of researchers to analyze the situation of the study, the purposes and project goals or to meet. “ Believe that with the HRUBEJ study we respond to what the real impact of the IL28B in the treatment of hepatitis C with standard therapy; What subgroup of patients presents more than 80%, and therefore cure rate, hardly improved with treatments based on triple therapy; and have a tool to make decisions when new drugs are available in the market ”, indicates Dr. Romero. “ Moreover, adds Dr. Solá – the HRUBEJ may also disclose who are patients who have the best genotype and the best chance of cure and not heal; and who are taking a worse genotype, still heal. This will determine the best individualized, based on double or triple therapy treatment, and the time of each ”.

“ A major suspicions that we have is that in patients who have positive genotype, patients that are easy to cure, heal just with the usual standard therapy, pegylated interferon + Ribavirin, patients receiving triple therapy, supposing, moreover, a significant increase in the cost of treatment and more adverse effects. This is one of the aspects that we want to show in this study, the rate of healing in patients with favourable genotype is so high that it is very difficult to her can overcome a new combination ”, concludes Dr. Romero.

Copper is a trace element essential for the prevention of osteoporosis

copper is an essential for the prevention of osteoporosis trace element

copper prevents bone diseases such as osteoporosis

-copper influences decisively bone strength, preventing diseases like osteoporosis.

-A diet composed of copper-rich foods such as chocolate, cereals or seafood increases the level of copper in the body.

-copper is a trace element essential for the correct development of the fetus during pregnancy.

Madrid, September of 2011. Bone diseases are a problem that primarily affects the elderly. With the passage of time, people lose bone density at more risk of injury or serious fractures. Osteoporosis is the most common bone disease, which is produced by a decrease in the amount of minerals in bones. This disease is common among elderly and postmenopausal women. The lack of calcium and minerals in the diet is one of the main causes of this disease.

Copper is a mineral essential to the human body. It ensures the normal functioning of the brain, the nervous system and the cardiovascular system, and also transports iron, helps the growth of bones and strengthens the immune system. A copper-rich diet may help prevent osteoporosis, as well as other diseases such as anemia, rheumatoid arthritis and cardiovascular disease. Studies show that the majority of the elderly who suffer any fracture in bones have levels of copper in blood lower than the recommended for their age.

According to various studies, about 30% of Western diets are deficient in copper, which is damaging to our bone system. Follow a diet rich in copper is not difficult, because this mineral is found in drinking water and many foods that we consume on a daily basis, such as chocolate, cereals, vegetables, seafood, nuts, or liver. Following a diet balanced with this type of food, we will always reduce the risk of fractures or bone problems.

The World Health Organization recommends an intake of copper 1, 3-1, 5 milligrams per day for adults and also establishes that a daily intake of copper between 1 and 11 mg, is safe for adults. The real intake of copper ranges between 0.6 and 2 mg per day, which suggests that a deficiency of copper in the usual diet may be worrying for health.

Other diseases

Bone problems aren’t the only ones that can arise in the absence of copper. Anemia (very common disease among women who have recently given birth), neutropenia (reduction of neutrophil in leukocytes count) or anatomical changes detrimental to health as muscular degeneration or arthritis. The lack of copper impairs the metabolism of cholesterol: a deficit of this mineral increases LDL (bad cholesterol) levels and reduce the levels of HDL (good cholesterol). Low copper levels also lead to adverse effects in the process of glucose metabolism and blood circulation.

Another problem related to the shortage of copper in the body is the disease of Menkes, an inherited disorder of metabolism of copper resulting in a lack of this mineral in the body, eventually causing irreversible damage. The problem lies in the absence of one of the genes responsible for transporting copper, which prevents the cells of the intestine to have necessary copper for the proper functioning of the body.

On the Spanish copper information centre (CEDIC):

CEDIC is a professional association of companies in the basic of the copper industry in Spain that develops an essentially informative activity in two different aspects. On the one hand it promotes and supports studies or research aimed at improving the techniques of obtaining, processing and use of copper. On the other hand, it brings together all the documentation produced in Spain and in other countries, concerning the copper to publicize her.

In this line, CEDIC has established a relationship of mutual cooperation with organizations public or private, national or foreign, with parallel to their own objectives. Among others, the International Copper Association (ICA), headquartered in New York, the European Copper Institute (ECI), based in Brussels, in addition to other twenty-three similar to CEDIC centres distributed throughout the world, eleven of them in Europe.

Tiredness and fatigue, were in third place, with 17.8% of the results. 12.5% Of the votes placed the traffic as the fourth most important risk factor. In the fifth and sixth place we find forced positions, and the openings or gaps unprotected. Late position those concerned with the lack of information, and not be qualified for the work done.

The reality on the root causes of accidents at work shows that the lack of attention and the distractions are the first cause of accidents, causing these forgetfulness 19.3 per cent of the accidents. Second place occupy forced postures and the instant, causing these 15.4% of the incidents. Third place is situated the situations related to traffic, while the fourth factor causing more accidents is tiredness or fatigue.

In the event that an accident will cause serious anatomical or functional cuts that reduce or annul the working capacity of the worker, the person will be able to be declared incapacitated permanently, so it is entitled to receive a Social Security pension. Contrary to common disease, the beneficiary not is required no contribution period and is entitled to 100% of your base figure.

To achieve this Declaration of permanent disability, it is essential to put in the hands of specialists. Cabinet technical medical legal is the only medical and legal Center of Spain specializes in pensions, social security and compensation, and has more than 35 years of experience in the processing of these.
