A Frederick News report notes in the June 10 1999 edition that researchers in the New England Journal of Medicine warn cigar smokers have twice the risk of mouth throat and lung cancers compared with nonsmokers. The study also links cigars to higher rates of heart disease and COPD.
Dr Carlos Iribarren of Kaiser Permanente studied 1,546 regular cigar smokers and 16,228 nonsmokers from 1971 to 1905. Most cigar smokers smoked under five daily. He notes cigar risks are lower than cigarettes since cigars are less inhaled. Cigarette smokers face about three times higher coronary heart disease risk, ten times higher lung cancer risk, and 20 to 25 times higher cardiac lung disease risk.
Washington AP reports new mothers are remaining about half a day longer in hospitals than before. The shift began before a federal 48 hour stay law, spurred by 1990s insurer practices and state rules. CDC notes stays rose from 17 to 21 days by 1997. 1995 saw 14 million mothers with one day or less, 1997 had 951,000.
Researchers report testicular cancer can trigger brain injury long before diagnosis due to an immune attack on a tumor protein. A specific antibody found in patients' blood could serve as an early warning sign, offering clues for vaccines and treatments for brain degeneration.
