American Medicine: Medicaid and Child Abuse
[1/0]
http://distractiblemind.ambulatorycomputing.com/2007/09/10/a...
This is a picture of a teenage boy with Gynecomastia. Obviously, gynecomastia is an abnormal enlargement of the male breasts. It happens in some teenagers - and is worse in those with obesity. Just how cruel do you think these kids are treated in high school and middle school?
I have a young boy who is 13 and has marked gynecomastia which has been present for over two years. I requested a plastic surgery consult (which is usually my practice) in this situation and the surgeon agreed that he was a good candidate for a surgical fix and submitted the request to our Medicaid managed care provider. I have never had a denial of this when the situation clearly seemed to warrant this. In fact, this child had been approved to have the procedure done a year prior to now but had not gotten it done out of fears and misconceptions about the procedure.

Hypoglycemia in Diabetes
[2/0]
http://care.diabetesjournals.org/cgi/content/full/26/6/1902
Iatrogenic hypoglycemia causes recurrent morbidity in most people with type 1 diabetes and many with type 2 diabetes, and it is sometimes fatal. The barrier of hypoglycemia generally precludes maintenance of euglycemia over a lifetime of diabetes and thus precludes full realization of euglycemia’s long-term benefits. While the clinical presentation is often characteristic, particularly for the experienced individual with diabetes, the neurogenic and neuroglycopenic symptoms of hypoglycemia are

NEJM -- Rosiglitazone Evaluated for Cardiovascular Outcomes -- An Interim Analysis
[2/0]
http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/short/357/1/28?rss=1&que...
Our interim findings from this ongoing study were inconclusive regarding the effect of rosiglitazone on the overall risk of hospitalization or death from cardiovascular causes. There was no evidence of any increase in death from either cardiovascular causes or all causes. Rosiglitazone was associated with an increased risk of heart failure. The data were insufficient to determine whether the drug was associated with an increase in the risk of myocardial infarction.
