Anthroposophical Medicine Anthroposophical medicine Philosophical background, cancerrelated issues, details, research, comments, and resources. http://cmbm.org/conferences/ccc99/transcripts99/sa9.html
Extractions: Session: Sa9; June 12, 1999 Dr. Robert Gorter, Dr. Gerald Karnow, Dr. Matthias Stoss, and Dr. Carmen Tamayo presented an integrated look at the theories of anthroposophical medicine and the use of mistletoe as an alternative therapy for cancer patients. The presentation began with Dr. Karnow describing the philosophies at the heart of anthroposophical medicine, which was founded by Rudolf Steiner. In short, anthroposophy is the integration and separation of the spiritual and physical persons, and the further connections to cancer invasion and cancer therapy. Dr. Stoss and Dr. Gorter then went on to explain the intrinsic connection of the mistletoe plant to anthroposophical theory as well as its therapeutic value. Finally, Dr. Tamayo concluded the presentation with a comprehensive summary of the theory and practice of anthroposophical medicine. II. The Cancer-Related Issue Addressed

Extractions: Acetylcholine : The first known neurotransmitter (1920s); found myoneural junctions of smooth and skeletal muscles and in the parasympathetic system; see cholinergic. ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic hormone) : Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), which is secreted by the hypothalamus, stimulates the anterior pituitary's secretion of ACTH , which in turn stimulates corticosteroid (e.g., cortisol) production in the adrenal cortex. Since corticosteroids diminish the inflammatory response, release of CRH from hypothalamus and ACTH from pituitary can be said to result in diminished immunity. This is what occurs in the fright-flight-fight response. Action Potential : Occurs when a neuron is activated; the electrical state of its interior membrane temporarily changes from negative to positive. The electrical charge travels along the axon to the terminal bud where it triggers or inhibits release of neurotransmitter into the synapse. If sufficient transmitter substance is present at the synapse to initiate an action potential in the postsynaptic neuron, the impulse continues. Adrenal Cortex : Secretes corticosteroids, aldosterone, androgens, and estrogens.

Ancient Medicine/Medicina Antiqua Ancient medicine/Medicina Antiqua has moved to. http//www.medicinaantiqua.org.uk/. In February 1996 Ancient medicine/Medicina Antiqua went on line. http://www.ea.pvt.k12.pa.us/medant/
Extractions: has moved to http://www.medicinaantiqua.org.uk/ Please redirect your links and bookmarks to the new site. In February 1996 Ancient Medicine/Medicina Antiqua went on line. In designing the site, I hoped to produce a reliable source for peer-reviewed information about the medicine and medical thought of the Greeks and Romans from Mycenaean times to the fall of the Roman Empire. By early 2003 the site had grown, won over a dozen awards, and become one of the Internet's major resources in its field. It had also become too much for me to maintain single-handedly. I am glad, therefore, that the Wellcome Trust for the History of Medicine at University College London has agreed to host the second incarnation of AM/MA, under the direction of Dr. Jason Davies. This institutional support will, I hope, enable Medicina Antiqua to grow and become even more useful to scholars, students, and others interested in Greco-Roman medicine. I am grateful to everyone who contributed to the orginal site in any way, and to Jason Davies for taking it over and moving it forward. Lee T. Pearcy

Extractions: Evidence based medicine: betekenis voor de farmacotherapie Inleiding Het fenomeen 'evidence based medicine' (EBM) mag zich niet alleen verheugen in een toenemende belangstelling van beoefenaren van de geneeskunde, maar ook van beleidsmedewerkers van overheid en ziektekostenverzekeraars. De idee van EBM is echter niet nieuw, want een dergelijk gedachtegoed werd ook al in de vorige eeuw uitgedragen. Deze definitie bevat een aantal begrippen die een nadere toelichting verdienen. EBM is een hulpmiddel bij . Voorstanders van EBM gaan ervan uit dat artsen de vaardigheid bezitten om individuele problemen te kunnen omzetten in een vraag waarop een antwoord kan worden gezocht. Voorts veronderstellen zij dat de betrokken arts direct toegang weet te vinden tot actuele informatiebronnen waarin het onderzoeksbewijs wordt omschreven. Vervolgens moet de arts in staat zijn in de hooiberg van resultaten uit klinisch wetenschappelijk onderzoek de speld van het beste bewijs te vinden. Het begrip bewijs kan op verschillende manieren worden gebruikt: hier is het geen wiskundig bewijs. 'Nauwgezet' . 'Verstandig gebruik' 'rationele farmacotherapie' , waaronder men meestal verstaat . Volgens EBM is het niet alleen mogelijk deze rationaliteit na te streven, maar kan men ook beschikken over een effectief instrument om die te meten en te documenteren, namelijk het gerandomiseerd klinisch onderzoek. Daarbij past echter de relativering dat de principes van rationele farmacotherapie tegenwoordig steeds meer onder druk staan. De ontwikkeling van nieuwe geneesmiddelen, promotionele activiteiten en het geneesmiddelengebruik zijn in toenemende mate afhankelijk van variabelen die niet specifiek behoren tot het domein van kennis en kunde op het gebied van de farmacologie, de therapie en de geneesmiddeleninformatie.
