Joints Disorders in the Elderly, How to tackle it?

When the elderly women, there will be many medical conditions that may strike. One of the possible health disorders are rheumatoid arthritis attack. Disease that attacks the joints and other organs can be prevented by using sunlight.

The new findings show a benefit for women who are routinely exposed to the morning sun healthy, to reduce and prevent the risk of rheumatoid arthritis. This beneficial effect, the researchers believe that ultraviolet B (UV-B) in sunlight may be beneficial to older women, as reported by Health24.

For the study, the researchers looked at approximately 235,000 participants took part in two stages the U.S. Nurses Health Study. The first phase started in 1976 with nurses aged 30 to 55 and continued until 2008. The second phase began in 1989 with nurses aged 25 to 42 and continued until 2009.

At the end of the two-phase, 1,314 of women had developed rheumatoid arthritis. Among women in the first stage of the study Nurses' Health, people with yangs often exposed to levels of UV-B are 21 percent less likely to develop rheumatoid arthritis than those with low exposure.

However, the relationship between UV-B exposure and the risk of rheumatoid arthritis is not visible evident among young women in the second stage. Women younger than women in the first phase and may be more aware about the dangers of too much sun exposure and avoid them.

"Our study adds to growing evidence that exposure to UV-B was associated with a reduced risk of rheumatoid arthritis," said Dr. Elizabeth Arkema, of the department of epidemiology at the Harvard School of Public Health.

Although this study is not a study of cause and effect, but from the results obtained, is expected to be a reference for other researchers to look at the benefits of sun exposure for prevention of rheumatoid arthritis.

With funding from Arthritis Research UK and the Diet and Health Research Industry Club (DRINC), research projects explore how sulforaphane may act to slow or prevent the progression of osteoarthritis. Similarly, as quoted Health24

Sulforaphane is a bioactive compound found in vegetables, especially broccoli. Eating broccoli enhance sulforaphane in the blood, but scientists do not yet know whether the amount of sulforaphane into the joint enough to make it effective in preventing osteoarthritis. This is the one where the UAE team hope to find it, because osteoarthritis is a major cause of disability cases.

There is no effective treatment

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease which gradually destroys the cartilage in the joints, especially the hands, feet, spine, hips, and knees elderly. To date, no effective treatment other than pain or recovery of joint replacement surgery.

Prof Ian Clark, of UEA's School of Biological Sciences, who led the study, said: "The UK has the aging population and developing new strategies for age-related diseases. Combating diseases such as osteoarthritis is vital to improving the quality of life of patients, but also to reduce the burden on the local economy. "

As part of a three-year project, the UEA team will also investigate the effects of other compounds in foods associated with osteoarthritis, including diallyl disulphide were found to be quite high in garlic.

Broccoli has previously been associated with reduced cancer risk, but this is the first time conducted a study of the effects of broccoli on joint health.

As many as 80 percent of cases of blindness in humans should be avoided. Often times it is caused by complications of diabetes and other medical conditions. The longer affected by diabetes, the higher the possibility of getting damaged eye blood vessels.

"About 60 percent of patients had diabetes for 50 years or more will be damaged blood vessels in the eye, and one percent are at risk of blindness," Dr. Yeo.

According to the National Health Survey in 2004 in Singapore, 8.9 percent of men and 7.6 percent of women affected by diabetes. Rate of diabetes in India is the highest number, ie 15.3 percent, Malaysia 11 percent, and China 7.1 percent. These statistics would be a guide for other Asian countries.

Golden years is a period in which the brain has amazing growth and development. At this time, the brain nerve cells growing toddlers.

"The growth of brain cells branching fastest since six months of pregnancy until the child is three years old. Fetal brain cells have grown and evolved since the first month in the womb, then divide rapidly reach 100 billion cells while developing appropriate places and functions respectively, "said Dr. Soedjatmiko, SpA (K), MSI, in a seminar entitled Nutrition and Stimulation for Children Intelligence JIExpo, Jakarta, recently.

Soedjatmiko explained, since six months of pregnancy, these cells form many synapses (the relationship between brain cells) to form various functional circuits (circuits) are complex, like a series of advanced computer microchips.

"The quality of the brain's circuitry depends on the quality of nutrition and stimulation (stimulation) were obtained from the womb to the age of the first three years. Process was going very fast and complex until the age of three years, after which it slowed at school age and adolescence," he explained.

Therefore, nutrition and early stimulation is very important, especially in the womb until the age of three years.
