“Until the 1984 Anatomy Act, and more definitively the 2004 Human Tissue Act, informed consent was not required. Let’s be clear: the bodies in most anatomical images were not volunteers. They were poor, criminalised and marginalised – those who in life already suffered the most.”

“The 1832 Anatomy Act curbed grave robbing but entrenched injustice. Unclaimed institutionalised bodies became the new legal supply, those from workhouses, poorhouses, asylums, prisons and hospitals.”

I just read through a 250 page lawsuit filed last week against Craig Kent, much of his leadership team, and UVA filed by 4 current/former UVA surgeons and the widows of 2 men who died receiving care at UVA. It’s a look under the hood of what drove the no confidence vote a year ago. It’s really bad.

“When zero doesn’t mean zero: the limits of coronary calcium in women

Coronary artery calcium scoring has revolutionized cardiovascular prevention. But in women, it sometimes underestimates the risk.”

“The results of an experiment on mice animal models showed that oral supplementation of 6-gingerol in a dose ranging from 50 to 75 mg/kg body weight over three weeks led to decreased blood glucose and oxidative stress levels, and better insulin sensitivity (Ali et al., 2018).”
