Inside the Beltway: Abortion, immigration among forbidden topics at Thanksgiving table – Washington Times

The warnings are already up in the popular press: Conversations during the Thanksgiving feast can be hazardous if they veer into political territory. But political talk can take place in theory: A data research company has now determined what topics are safe to talk about on the holiday.

With some qualitative analysis and a little common sense, weve created a cheat sheet that will help you blaze a path through Thanksgiving dinner that steers clear of treacherous political pitfalls and dangerous inter-uncle conflicts, reports Ranker.com, a Los Angeles-based media company which uses crowdsourcing to rank public opinion on multiple topics, typically at the rate of 15 million votes a month.

They have determined what political topics are the least and the most likely to set off a Thanksgiving dinner squabble. Their judgment is based on 300,000 votes from 40,000 respondents.

The topics to avoid this year: Abortion, immigration, terrorism and gender equality. The topics which are safe for dinnertime discussion: Ineffective government, health care reform and education.

If there are millennials present, they will be triggered, the organization says, by talk of abortion, police brutality and pollution. Generation X members will be set off by such topics as homelessness, affordable housing and campaign finance reform. Baby boomers will go to battle over terrorism, immigration and the moral decline of the nation.

The organization also has warnings for dinner hosts in certain states. If they live in Florida, their guests will be particularly sensitive about discussions of vaccines. In Indiana, its gender equality while Georgia diners are prone to fight over police brutality. Beware of talking about gun control at dinner tables in both California and Missouri; Texans get feisty over moral decline. New Yorkers get upset over transgender issues.

We examined each issue on a case-by-case basis to find the topics that are most likely to cause disagreement, as well as the ones on which people tend to either agree or not care about, Ranker.com explains.

A VERY SPECIALIZED MEAL

While most of us are enjoying turkey and pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving, the staff at one laboratory at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles will be busy serving a meal to stem cells.

Stem cells do not observe national holidays, says Loren Ornelas-Menendez, manager of the very specialized lab that converts samples of adult skin and blood cells into stem cells which the human body uses to make our cells in the first place.

These special cells help medical scientists learn how diseases develop and how they might be cured. The lab is tending millions of them. Oh, but they have needs.

Stem cells are living creatures that must be hand-fed a special formula each day, monitored for defects and maintained at just the right temperature. And that means the cell lab is staffed every day, 52 weeks a year, the lab notes in a public advisory.

Many people have dogs. We have stem cells, says Ms. Ornelas-Menendez.

Derived from hundreds of healthy donors and patients, the resident induced pluripotent stem cells or iSPCs are keys to potential treatments for diabetes, breast cancer, Alzheimers disease, blindness, Parkinsons disease and Crohns disease, among other conditions. Ten lab technicians monitor the cells through microscopes each day and cull out any cells which have gone awry for one reason or another.

But what do they eat even on Thanksgiving?

While the cells get sorted, a special feeding formula is defrosting in a dozen bottles spread around a lab bench. The formula includes sodium, glucose, vitamins and proteins. Using pipettes, employees squeeze the liquid into food wells inside little compartments that contain the iPSCs. Afterward, they return the cells to their incubators, the lab advises.

Lab director Dhruv Sareen suggests that people consider offering a toast to the stem cells on Thanksgiving.

One day the cells they tend could lead to treatments for diseases that have plagued humankind for centuries, he says. And thats something to be truly thankful for.

THE GIPPERS FAVORITE

Back by popular demand, Inside the Beltway again shares this little known but historic recipe for President Reagans Favorite Macaroni and Cheese enjoyed by Ronald Reagan and his family on Thanksgiving and other holidays. What follows is a step-by-step shared by Mrs. Ronald Reagan, Washington, D.C., Wife of the President in a spiral-bound community cookbook published by the American Cancer Societys Northern Virginia division in 1983. The recipe serves six and is baked at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes.

The directions are from the cookbook reflecting the style, perhaps, of another era:

1/2 pound macaroni, 1 teaspoon butter, 1 egg, beaten; 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, 3 cups grated cheese, sharp; 1 cup milk.

Boil macaroni in water until tender and drain thoroughly. Stir in butter and egg. Mix mustard and salt with 1 tablespoon hot water and add to milk. Add cheese leaving enough to sprinkle on top. Pour into buttered casserole, add milk, sprinkle with cheese. Bake until custard is set and top is crusty.

Curious about what transpired at a Reagan Thanksgiving? A 1985 Los Angeles Times account noted this:

President and Mrs. Reagan gathered with their family for a quiet Thanksgiving dinner at their fogbound ranch in the Santa Ynez mountains, where the main topic of conversation was the weather. The Reagans did not seem to mind the enforced seclusion as they sat down to a traditional turkey dinner, prepared by Ann Allman, the Reagan familys longtime cook in California. It was an all-American menu that included cornbread dressing, cranberries, string beans, mashed potatoes, salad, pumpkin pie and monkey bread, a family favorite.

POLL DU JOUR

46% of Americans say long standing family tensions are the cause of family fights during holidays.

37% say general politics is the cause; 33% cite the 2020 presidential race.

24% say someones future plans cause the fights; 24% say money.

22% say the behavior of guests; 21% say drinking and alcohol.

18% say holiday cooking is the cause.

About NurOwn

NurOwn (autologous MSC-NTF) cells represent a promising investigational therapeutic approach to targeting disease pathways important in neurodegenerative disorders. MSC-NTF cells are produced from autologous, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that have been expanded and differentiated ex vivo. MSCs are converted into MSC-NTF cells by growing them under patented conditions that induce the cells to secrete high levels of neurotrophic factors. Autologous MSC-NTF cells can effectively deliver multiple NTFs and immunomodulatory cytokines directly to the site of damage to elicit a desired biological effect and ultimately slow or stabilize disease progression. BrainStorm has fully enrolled a Phase 3 pivotal trial of autologous MSC-NTF cells for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). BrainStorm also received U.S. FDA acceptance to initiate a Phase 2 open-label multicenter trial in progressive MS and enrollment began in March 2019.

Lulu and Nana are the result of a defiant experiment in human gene modification – The Irish Times

Remember these two names, Lulu and Nana. They are twin girls born in China in October 2018, and we already know they are going to be famous.

They are the worlds first genetically-edited humans, and their progress through life will be monitored intensively by medical researchers over the coming years.

Dont doubt their future celebrity. Remember the headlines when Dolly the sheep arrived in 1996, the worlds first mammal cloned directly from an adult cell. Or how about Louise Brown, who made headlines in 1978 as the first baby to be conceived using invitro fertilisation (IVF) techniques.

Although the methods used to bring about these three births are light years apart, all three involve the delivery of an offspring using unorthodox methods.

All three were also controversial in their day. There was no end of condemnation and criticism about playing god and defying the laws of nature for the first two, but now IVF is commonplace for lots of medical reasons and is accepted as a standard medical practice. And news of another species successfully cloned in the lab would not make headlines today.

However, the genetic modification of the twins is a different matter, a genetic change introduced before birth to deliver a permanent alteration of their original genome that will be passed down from generation to generation.

Prof He Jiankui of the Southern University of Science and Technology carried out the genetic change needed to permanently modify the twins genome. He introduced a mutation that gave Lulu and Nana resistance to the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, the virus that causes Aids, and revealed his successful genetic modification one year ago this month.

The backlash was immediate and severe. There was international condemnation that China allowed experimentation on humans. Last January his university sacked him.

The scientific community also criticised the work as having crossed an important red line for genetics research, the reality that we still know too little about how even the smallest genetic change might have unexpected impacts downstream in other parts of the genome.

It was bad enough that a modification had taken place, but the modification was in the germline, the cells that bring about the next generation and the next and the next.

Perhaps the lure of notoriety proved too strong or the desire to be the first, but He Jiankui crossed that line, helped along the way through use of a gene-editing method known as CRISPR-Cas9.

This method emerged over several years, and has become the gene-cutting tool of choice because it allows very tight control over how a gene can be modified, added to or deleted.

When it came into widespread use the scientific community recognised immediately that controls on its application were necessary to prevent its use in human gene modification. This should have prevented He Jiankui from attempting such a daring and defiant experiment but it didnt, and Lulu and Nana were the result.

They were born healthy but now scientists will want to know whether there are unexpected or unwanted effects or other issues that arise. Already researchers have raised doubts about the gene modification that confers resistance to HIV, which means some level of susceptibility to the virus may remain.

The modified gene, known as CCR5, also has other roles in the body, and its modified actions may affect the lifespan of the twins. One large study involving 410,000 subjects showed that people with a similar mutated version of CCR5 were 20 per cent more likely to die before reaching the age of 78.

Despite these misgivings there is no doubt that CRISPR-Cas9 will in the future be used to modify the human genome in the battle against difficult diseases such as cancer and in genetic disorders caused by specific gene mutations. The tool is far too important to avoid its eventual use, or the use of some other similar but as yet unidentified gene-cutting method.

Similarly there is little doubt that online charlatans will offer promised but undeliverable cures using CRISPR-Cas9, as was the case with earlier technologies such as stem cells.

Lulu and Nana, meanwhile, will get on with living their lives, doing what babies do. Their names are pseudonyms in an attempt to conceal them from public view, but it is likely that we may learn their real names in the future.

Lulu and Nanas story came to mind in light of research published last week (November 21st) in the journal Cell about how attempting to create designer babies using other advanced technology could still remain a costly waste of time.

It involves choosing an embryo based on its potential to be tall or smarter than average, but accomplishing this via something like CRISPR-Cas9 is too far beyond our current abilities. Instead the international team of scientists set up a model to simulate one method called pre-implantation genetic testing.

This involves screening the genome for genes that have an association to a given trait, in this studys case intelligence and height, and giving them a score. The team found, however, that at best the top-scoring embryo might be expected to be 2.5cm taller than average and at best 2.5 IQ points above average.

Lurking behind all of this remains the most challenging of issues, the ethics surrounding the use of this technology.

As usual the ethics questions that should have been asked first are the ones obscured by the advance of these promising discoveries.

Why Stem Cell Therapy Might Be Your Answer To Chronic Pain – Patch.com

This article is sponsored by The Art of Pain Management and Regenerative Medicine.

Having performed more than 25,000 procedures throughout the last decade, Dr. Jarrad Teller and Dr. Michael Schina of the Art of Pain Management (AOPM) are just getting started. Ten years ago, Dr. Teller, a chiropractor with degrees in physiotherapy and kinesiology, partnered with Dr. Schina, a vascular and trauma surgeon. Together, the pair has created one of the most successful interventional pain management practices in the tri-state area thanks to their multifaceted approach to patients. Modalities of treatment that are used by AOPM include yoga, meditation, vitamins and herbs, diet programs and spine and joint injections.

"Two years ago, our office began using stem cells to treat arthritic conditions. Previously, injections with cortisone and local anesthetic temporarily relieved a patient's pain. With stem cell injections, the patient's injury began to heal and osteoarthritis improved."

Stem cell therapy utilizes multi-potent cells that are capable of differentiating and growing into various types of tissue in the body. Stem cells act as beacon cells that find areas of inflammation (areas of need in the body) and reprogram the body's own stem cells to regenerate tissue. Stem cell function requires a healthy milieu. That is why blood analysis and correction of abnormalities prior to stem cell therapy is so important.

Osteoarthritis of the spine (neck and back), shoulder, knee, hip and ankle are the most common conditions that AOPM treats. Other conditions for which patients seek treatment include COPD, autoimmune disorders and spinal injuries, in addition to unexplained illnesses.

With traditional pain management that utilizes cortisone injections, yoga, meditation, lifestyle changes and diet, about half of patients fail to improve. This is largely related to the fact that cortisone treats only the patient's symptoms and does nothing to alleviate the underlying osteoarthritis. For the other half of patients, stem cell therapy offers the potential to improve the osteoarthritis by regenerating tissue and may be a viable option.

Induction Therapy and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Mixed-Phenotype Acute Leukemia – Cancer Therapy Advisor

A recent analysis of treatment options for patients with mixed-phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) suggests favorable outcomes may be obtained with frontline therapy using a chemotherapy regimen usually administered to patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and without hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Results of this analysis were published in Cancer.

In this central review of MPAL outcomes, the Childrens Oncology Group Acute Leukemia of Ambiguous Lineage Task Force studied a cohort of 54 patients aged 1 to 30 years with diagnoses of MPAL who were enrolled in clinical trials involving ALL or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatments.

Induction therapies typically consisted of ALL treatment regimens, AML treatment regimens, or a hybrid of both approaches. A variety of postinduction treatment options, with or without HSCT, were also included.

Patients with MPAL who were given ALL (72%) or AML (24%) induction treatments did not significantly differ from each other in reported baseline characteristics.

End-of-induction complete remission was achieved by 72% of patients treated with an ALL induction regimen and by 69% of patient given an AML induction regimen.

Among all patients in the cohort, the 5-year overall survival rate was 77%; among patients who received ALL chemotherapy without HSCT, the 5-year overall survival rate was 84%. The 5-year event-free survival rate was 72% for the total cohort and 75% among those who received ALL chemotherapy without HSCT.

The researchers stated that their findings demonstrated that durable remissions are possible for a subset of patients with MPAL receiving ALL chemotherapy without HSCT consolidation. They also described a forthcoming prospective clinical trial that will test a minimum residual disease-guided treatment approach with ALL therapy and without HSCT in patients with MPAL.

North-east toddler overcomes cancer after pioneering stem cell treatment – Press and Journal

It may finally be a happy Christmas for a brave toddler recovering from a rare combination of cancers after pioneering stem cell treatment.

Amelia Topa, who celebrated her second birthday yesterday, is looking forward to spending the festive period with her family at home in Turriff.

Her parents Kerri Paton, 23, and Igor Topa, 24, were told that raised purple spots across Amelias body could be a sign of something seriously wrong when she was born at Dr Grays Hospital in Elgin.

Amelia was soon after diagnosed with a mix of two types of leukemia acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and acute myeloid leukaemia and spent Christmas in hospital.

Miss Paton said: Its rare enough to be born with leukaemia but to be born with a mix of two kinds is almost unheard of.

Doctors gave Amelia a bone marrow transplant using stem cells donated by a managed between 16 and 30.

The treatment worked and, by the following autumn, she was home and awaiting the arrival of her baby brother.

But tragedy struck when Amelias grandmother, Angela McNabb, died suddenly from heart failure aged 48 the day before Amelias birthday.

Miss Paton said: My mum was my best friend, she was everything to me.

Mum absolutely loved Amelia and was so close to her.

My major source of support was gone and I hadnt even had the chance to say goodbye. I couldnt believe it. It was so unfair. Last Christmas was heartbreaking.

Things went from bad to worse for the family in February, when tests showed that Amelias cancer had returned.

After intense chemotherapy she was given a second transplant using stem cells from umbilical cord blood flown specially from America at the end of June.

That procedure was a success and the toddler has entered remission.

Having spent Christmas in 2017 in hospital, and in mourning last year, Amelias parents are now looking forward to a happy festive season.

Miss Paton said: Amelia soared through the transplant and shes doing really well now,I couldnt be prouder.

I hope Amelias story will help other families going through cancer there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Amelia has now been selected to receive the first Cancer Research UK children and young people star award in recognition of the courage she showed since being diagnosed.

The award, supported by TK Maxx, is open to all people under 18s who currently have cancer or who have been treated in the last five years with every child being awarded a trophy, TK Maxx gift card, t-shirt and certificate signed by the likes of Nanny McPhee star Dame Emma Thompson.

Spokeswoman for the charity, Lisa Adams, said: We know that a cancer diagnosis is devastating at any age, but that it can be particularly difficult for a child or young person and their families.

Thats why were calling on families across Scotland to nominate inspirational youngsters for an award so that we can recognise their incredible courage.

Nominations can be made online at cruk.org/childrenandyoungpeople
