Foundation for aeromedical research. Past, present and future.

Research is vital for the future of air medical transport. It is not only needed to prove the medical benefits and safety of air medical transport, but also to find out the efficacy of using rotor- and fixed-wing aircraft to move patients. Moreover, in order to grow, the air medical transport profession must integrate new technologies and methods through development and testing.

Optimizing vascular access: a team perspective using the National Kidney Foundation-Dialysis Outcomes Quality Initiative Guidelines.

The implementation of the Dialysis Outcomes Quality Initiative (DOQI) Vascular Access Guidelines can appear as an overwhelming task. This article suggests very basic and practical actions the entire end-stage renal disease (ESRD) team can take to help put the DOQI Guidelines into every day practice. The simple format of an early prerenal education program may help increase the number of native arterio-venous fistula placed in new ESRD patients. The focus is on the ESRD team working together to remove common barriers preventing the implementation of the DOQI Guidelines. Examples about the role the social worker and renal dietitian can fulfill as part of the Guideline implementation are presented. This article is based on previous personal work experience as a member of the ESRD Team and as a Work Group Member.

MEDPED and the Spanish Familial Hypercholesterolemia Foundation.

We analysed clinical and genetic data of 819 non-related familial hypercholesterolemia patients. No differences on baseline low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels between females and males were observed. High density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol values were higher in females than in males (57+/-15 vs. 47.7+/-13, respectively, P<0.01). Premature cardiovascular disease was present in 21.7% of cases (30.8% in males and 14.3% in females, P<0.001). A significant and positive correlation was observed between cardiovascular disease and age, gender, tobacco, total and LDL cholesterol levels at diagnosis, and negatively with HDL cholesterol levels. Analysis of LDL-receptor gene have been performed in 350 cases and 86 different mutations have been found.
