Mother and daughter team donate more than 200 handmade masks to the HGH Foundation – The Review Newspaper

The Hawkesbury and District General Hospital (HGH) and its Foundation have been asking for the communitys help in donating hand-sewn masks for use at the hospital.

Patients are currently required to wear a mask before entering HGH and those arriving without one are being provided with a cloth mask, which has been sewn and donated by generous donors.

The response from the community has been wonderful. In particular, a mother-daughter team, Annette and Tiffany Jones, have stepped up to the challenge, having already made and donated more than 200 masks! This incredible donation represents many hours of work by the two, who plan to continue making and donating masks to the HGH Foundation to support the hospital over the coming months.

The donation was presented to Pierre-Luc Byham (Executive Director, HGH Foundation), Dr. Julie Maranda (Chief of Staff and Interim VP Clinical Programs, HGH), and Daniel LeBreux (Clinical Director, HGH) by Annette and Tiffany Jones.

Can you sew? HGH still needs your help. For more information, visit the HGH Foundations website at http://www.hghfoundation.org or call (613) 632-1111 ext. 21101.

Opko Stock Is a Covid-19 Testing Name Worth Betting On – Investorplace.com

In previous columns, I was very bearish on Co-Diagnostics (NASDAQ:CODX) and XpressSpa (NASDAQ:XSPA). Both stocks are plays on testing for the novel coronavirus. However,Opko Health (NASDAQ:OPK) stock is very different from those two names.

Source: Maksim Shmeljov / Shutterstock.com

Co-Diagnostics had little revenue before developing its test for the coronavirus in less than two hours. And its coronavirus test has generated some controversy. XpresSpa has no previous experience with lab testing, has not announced any paying customers for its tests, and seems to be trying to compete with entities that are providing the test for free. The valuations of both stocks are very high.

In contrast Opkos BioReference Laboratories subsidiary has a tremendous amount of experience in obtaining and testing blood samples. Further, BioReference has announced that it has made deals to provide its coronavirus tests to large government entities. These contracts are generating a significant amount of revenue.

Finally, Opko has generated meaningful sales in past years, and it has developed a drug that looks poised to bring in significant revenue, while the valuation of OPK stock is reasonable.

Acquired by Opko in 2015 for $1.47 billion, BioReference generated $832 million of revenue in its fiscal 2014, making it Americas third-largest publicly traded lab company at that time, according to TheDarkIntelligenceGroup.

BioReference has been testing lab specimens since 1986 and has acquired many other experienced diagnostic entities over the years. Since at least 2000, its carried out genetic screening.

On the coronavirus front, BioReference signed a $150 million contract with at least four coronavirus hotspots: New York State, New Jersey, Detroit, and Florida. Its also processing tests for many hospitals.

As of July 1, it had processed almost 250,000 Covid-19 tests from nursing homes and live-in facility employees. Given all of this information, its obvious that BioReference got a lot of money to process coronavirus tests.

Opko, in partnership with Pfizer (NYSE:PFE), developed a human growth hormone drug, somatrogon. Based on data generated by a Phase 3 trial of somatrogon, the drug appears to be significantly more effective than a drug called somatropin, which is used to treat growth hormone deficiency or GHD.

According to Opko, 1 in 3,800 children in the U.S. requires human growth hormones. In 2017, there were 74 million children in the U.S. That means about 19,500 children in the U.S. have GHD and require HGH treatments. HGH treatments cost $1,000 to $5,000 per month.

Since a number of other companies HGH treatments are undergoing Phase 3 trials, but Opko has a big-time partner in Pfizer, lets assume that Opko gets 30% of the market at a price of $3,000 per month or $36,000 per year. That works out to annual revenue of $210.5 million. If Pfizer gets 30% of the revenue, Opko would still get $147 million. In 2019, Opkos revenue was $902 million.

Some parents are starting to give HGH to children who dont clinically require the hormone, and 1 in 10,000 adults have GHD. Moreover, some adults who dont have GHD are using HGH to try to combat the aging process. Some doctors could legally prescribe Opkos HGH treatment to adults. And finally, Opkos treatment could be approved in the EU. All told, I think the drug could easily generate $300 million of annual revenue for the company.

On June 1, the FDA agreed to allow Opko to conduct a Phase 2 trial of its Rayaldee drug as a treatment for patients with mild-to-moderate COVID-19. Rayaldee is a prohormone of calcitriol, which is the active form of vitamin D.

In a statement, Charles W. Bishop, the CEO of Opkos renal division said, Raising serum 25D (a derivative of Vitamin D) enables macrophages, a type of white blood cell of the immune system, to secrete potent antiviral proteins that can destroy SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. It also can suppress the cytokine storm triggered by viral infection.

Theres some controversy over the link between Vitamin D and the coronavirus. Yale doctors say theres slim evidence of a link, while the University of Chicago contends that Vitamin D deficiency may raise risk of getting COVID-19.

On the other hand, there seems to be a widespread belief among medical professionals that the cytokine storm triggered by Covid-19 is a major problem, and Opko appears to be somewhat optimistic about the ability of its drug to combat that issue.

Regardless, with a vaccine potentially arriving in the fall or early next year and the FDA only authorizing a Phase 2 trial last month, the company may not have enough time to generate a large amount of sales from the indication. If it does turn out that Rayldee meaningfully helps coronavirus patients, however, the company could get a meaningful revenue bump from off-label prescribing and stockpiling by hospitals and governments.

Opko, which reported sales of $990 million in 2018, looks poised to generate strong revenue growth this year, driven by its coronavirus tests and its HGH treatment. Meanwhile, its shares are trading at a reasonable 2.4 times its trailing sales. Given these points, OPK stock is worth buying for longer-term investors.

As of this writing, Larry Ramer did not own any of the aforementioned securities. Larry has conducted research and written articles on U.S. stocks for 13 years. He has been employed by The Fly and Israels largest business newspaper, Globes. Larry began writing columns for InvestorPlace in 2015.

Neurobiologists Calculate Oxygen Consumed By The Brain – Gilmore Health News

Metabolic Demands of The Human Brain

The brain is dependent on a constant supply of glucose as it doesnt have any storage capacity in itself to store glucose as glucagon. In addition to this, the brain doesnt use alternative sources of fuel such as fatty acids which is believed to be due to an evolutionary protective mechanism from the harmful effects of fatty acid oxidation. Thus, due to its reliance on glucose for fuel the brain can only derive its energy via aerobic glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation. Although it can also use ketone bodies, this fuel source is limited and not as efficient as glucose.

The brain is a highly heterogeneous organ in terms of its functions and cell type. Different nerve cells have a variety of functions and thus a variable demand for energy. More than 20% of the bodys energy is consumed by the brain although it accounts for less than 2% of the total body mass. This energy as stated above is produced by aerobic glycolysis which is dependent on oxygen therefore oxygen levels is a significant factor that influences brain cells functionality. Despite a large number of studies conducted on understanding the metabolic processes of the brain, the amount of oxygen consumption by the brain has not been known until now.

Neurobiologists from LMU have recently calculated the amount of oxygen the human brain consumes based on the activity of some nerve cells. For the first time in the history of medical science, neurobiologists Hans Straka, Suzan zugur, and Lars Kunz have discovered a method to directly measure the oxygen consumed by the brain by correlating it with the neural cell functions.

Using electrochemical sensors in tadpoles, the neuroscientists determined the concentration of oxygen in the brain. This technique enabled them to control the oxygen levels within the brain while simultaneously inhibiting brain function by controlling nerve cell functional activity using pharmacological inhibitors of neurotransmitters. By examining eye movements while controlling nerve cell activity, the neurobiologists analyzed the association of nerve cell function with oxygen consumption.

We have found that the brain is anoxic in a normal air-saturated environment, which means that no oxygen can be measured, said Straka. Read Also: New Brain Surgery Technique Makes Cancer Cells More Visible for RemovalAny oxygen consumed by the nerve cells is immediately utilized for aerobic glycolysis for energy. However, if oxygen saturation levels of the atmosphere were twice the normal concentration, the utilization of oxygen for energy was saturated creating an abundance of oxygen within the brain. For nerve cell activity, only half of the oxygen was used while the remaining half was required by glial cells to maintain the basic metabolic rate of both glial cells and nerve cells. But in situations of increased brain activity, more oxygen was utilized for nerve cell activity than basic metabolic rate.

Understanding the influence of oxygen saturation or deficiency with brain activity is a crucial step to further research the mechanism by which our brain processes information.

Here’s everything you need to know about intermittent fasting – Prestige Online

Intermittent fasting is one of the top lifestyle trends this year.

And thats not only because we came out of COVID-19 looking a little chubbier and tubbier, but also because it has proven results with (relatively) little effort required.

Nevertheless, as with all diets (and diet fads), its important to be properly informed before embarking on a journey of changing your eating habits.

Here, Dr Priya Khorana, founder and CEO of Lifestyle Nutrition Consulting Co in Bangkok, gives us the ultimate low-down on intermittent fasting, from the perspective of someone who really knows a thing or two about this stuff. Read on, take note, and decide for yourself if youre ready to (stomach) rumble.

Intermittent fasting (IF) is not a diet. It is a timed approach to eating, and unlike a restricted fad diet, it does not specify what foods a person should eat or avoid. To put simply; IF does not change what you eat, it changes when you eat.

It may have some health benefits, including weight loss and improved insulin sensitivity, but it is not suitable for everyone and should be done with careful consideration. People with advanced diabetes or who are on medications for diabetes, people with a history of eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia, and pregnant or breastfeeding women should not attempt intermittent fasting unless under the close supervision of a physician who can monitor them.

Having said that, there are some evidence-based benefits of IF. In men, it has shown to reduce insulin resistance and lower blood sugar levels (and thereby reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes). It has also been shown to reduce oxidative damage and inflammation, thereby slowing down effects of ageing. Lastly, the insulin levels drop human growth hormone (HGH) increases, which helps facilitate fat burning and muscle gain.

Depending on your IF approach, youre either shortening the eating window each day, or engaging in 24-hour fasts one or more times a week. One of the most popular approaches is the 16:8 method, which is when you fast for an eight-hour window this is often the approach I go for. It is vital to stress that folks use an eating approach that works and is sustainable to them.

The 16:8 MethodThis is also called the Leangains Protocol, and involves skipping breakfast and restricting your daily eating period to 8 hours, such as 1-9pm. Then you fast for 16 hours in between.

The Eat-Stop-EatThis involves fasting for 24 hours, once or twice a week. For example, you may not eat from dinner one day until dinner the next day.

The 5:2 DietWith this method, you consume only 500-600 calories on two non-consecutive days of the week, but eat normally the other 5 days.

As a doctor of nutrition, I will always recommend foods for improved health, including high-fiber, unprocessed, whole foods in all colours and varieties. A mostly plant-based Mediterranean-style diet has been linked to improved health benefits, and in this case, I will suggest this way of life even whilst fasting. Making sure you are nourishing your body as effectively prior to starting your fast will help prevent any feelings of being hangry during the fast.

It is also vital for me to suggest that if you are embarking on an IF journey, staying hydrated is key. Fasting can come with some initial side effects, such as increased hunger, low blood sugar, headache, irritability, dizziness, and fatigue so please embark with caution.

Limiting your dining window does not give you an excuse to binge eat especially on unhealthy foods because you will not see the benefits. Eating unwholesome (read: junk) food in a shortened feeding window on the IF diet may also put you at risk of deficiencies in key nutrients such as calcium, iron, protein, and fiber, all of which are essential for normal biological function.

What you need to do is consume a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, whole-grains, and sufficient lean protein and healthy fat boosting important antioxidants and nutrients which all result in an increased lifespan and reduces the risks of developing lifestyle related chronic diseases.

What is important to emphasise is that the goal of IF is to maintain a healthy amount of calories for your body during the fast so you do not rebound eat.

For those starting out, I suggest implementing a 12-hour fasting/12-hour eating window and building up from there, eventually finding a schedule that works best for you. The most important thing is breaking your fast with fresh, unprocessed, nutrient-dense whole foods, prioritising healthy sources of protein and good fats, all while limiting junk foods that negate any benefits of IF.

Ascendis Pharma A/S Receives Positive Opinion from the Paediatric Committee of the European Medicines Agency on the Agreement of a Paediatric…

Supports the investigation of TransCon hGH for treatment of growth hormone deficiency in the pediatric population from 6 months to less than 18 years of age

Company on track to submit European marketing application in third quarter 2020

No additional studies required

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, July 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ascendis Pharma A/S(Nasdaq: ASND), a biopharmaceutical company that utilizes its innovative TransCon technologies to address unmet medical needs, today announced that it received a positive opinion from the Paediatric Committee (PDCO) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) on its agreement with the proposed Paediatric Investigation Plan (PIP) for TransCon hGH (lonapegsomatropin), an investigational long-acting once-weekly prodrug of somatropin (human growth hormone or hGH) in development for treatment of growth hormone deficiency (GHD). The positive opinion is based on the non-clinical safety program, as well as data from the three phase 3 clinical trials provided to PDCO from the ongoing TransCon hGH development program, which will be included in the upcoming Marketing Authorisation Application (MAA).

The PIP opinion from PDCO endorsed the TransCon hGH program as acceptable for assessment of safety and efficacy for the use of TransCon hGH as a treatment for growth hormone deficiency in children from 6 months to less than 18 years of age, mirroring the population covered by the studies conducted in the program.

We are delighted to receive the positive opinion from PDCO regarding our PIP, which is based on a comprehensive data package from our non-clinical and clinical development program for TransCon hGH. As planned, we will move forward with our marketing application submission in Europe this quarter, said Dana Pizzuti, M.D., Ascendis Pharmas Senior Vice President of Development Operations. We believe this opinion recognizes the unique attributes of TransCon hGH and how our TransCon technology enables the long-acting release of unmodified somatropin which provides a predictable mode of action without changing the expected safety profile. We are very pleased with our PDCO discussions as the approval of our PIP reflects to our knowledge the first time PDCO has concluded that a clinical development program for a long acting growth hormone treatment is appropriate to support the clinical development in children.

Ascendis submitted a Biologics License Application for TransCon hGH for the treatment of pediatric GHD to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in June 2020, and the company recently conducted productive meetings with European regulatory personnel, including a pre-submission meeting with EMA and meetings with the rapporteur and co-rapporteur.

About the Paediatric Committee (PDCO)

The Paediatric Committee (PDCO) is the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) scientific committee responsible for activities on medicines for children and to support the development of such medicines in the European Union by providing scientific expertise and defining paediatric needs.

About the Paediatric Investigation Plan (PIP)

A paediatric investigation plan (PIP) is a development plan aimed at ensuring that the necessary data are obtained through studies in children, to support the authorisation of a medicine for children. All applications for marketing authorisation for new medicines have to include the results of studies as described in an agreed PIP, unless the medicine is exempt because of a deferral or waiver. This requirement also applies when a marketing-authorisation holder wants to add a new indication, pharmaceutical form or route of administration for a medicine that is already authorised and covered by intellectual property rights.

About TransCon Technology

TransCon refers to transient conjugation. The proprietary TransCon platform is an innovative technology designed to create new therapies that optimize therapeutic effect, including efficacy, safety and dosing frequency. TransCon molecules have three components: an unmodified parent drug, an inert carrier that protects it, and a linker that temporarily binds the two. When bound, the carrier inactivates and shields the parent drug from clearance. When injected into the body, physiologic conditions (e.g., pH and temperature) initiate the release of the active, unmodified parent drug in a predictable manner. Because the parent drug is unmodified, its original mode of action may be maintained. TransCon technology is designed to be applied broadly to a protein, peptide or small molecule in multiple therapeutic areas, and to be used systemically or locally.

About Pediatric Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD)

Pediatric GHD is a serious orphan disease caused when the pituitary gland does not produce enough growth hormone. Children with GHD are not only characterized by short stature, but they also may experience metabolic abnormalities, psychosocial challenges and poor quality of life.

For decades, the standard of care for GHD has been a daily subcutaneous injection of hGH, which improves growth and overall endocrine health.

About Ascendis Pharma A/S

Ascendis Pharma is applying its innovative platform technology to build a leading, fully integrated biopharma company focused on making a meaningful difference in patients lives. Guided by its core values of patients, science and passion, the company utilizes its TransCon technologies to create new and potentially best-in-class therapies.

Ascendis Pharma currently has a pipeline of three independent endocrinology rare disease product candidates in clinical development and is advancing oncology as its second therapeutic area of focus. The company continues to expand into additional therapeutic areas to address unmet patient needs.

Ascendis is headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark, with additional offices in Heidelberg and Berlin, Germany, and in Palo Alto and Redwood City, California.

Carl Frampton: I fear that drugs use in boxing could be rife and something needs to be done about it – Belfast Telegraph

It has been a tough enough time for boxing with the whole coronavirus lockdown and then Jarrell Miller comes along to remind us about the curse of drugs within the sport.

iller missed out on a world heavyweight title fight with Anthony Joshua last year after he tested positive for the performance-enhancing drugs GW1516, HGH and IPO. He was to have made his return to the ring this month but has tested positive for GW1516 again, though he is adamant that he did not take the substance on purpose.

Fans and fighters will make their own minds up about whether he is guilty or not of taking it on purpose, but the fact remains that it was found in his system. In my opinion, he should have been chucked out of the sport after last year's positive tests and one thing I will always take pride in when my career is over is that I gave my all doing it the right away, being clean.

This latest controversy as well as the disconcerting rumours I hear about some gyms the States sadly leads me to have a real fear that the use of performance-enhancing drugs is worse than ever in boxing - even though there has been more testing.

Let's be honest, when you see a fighter go from being a light hitter with few knockouts or stoppages to someone who is rocking fighters to their bootstraps, it does raise eyebrows.

Unfortunately, the rumour mill in boxing is growing all the time about who is possibly using PEDs and even four or five years ago that wouldn't have been the case. It seems there is a growing culture that reflects what happened in cycling and athletics - that you have to take them because everyone else is. That's a crying shame and it's not the case, you can't tar every fighter with the same brush but there is a real concern that more and more boxers may be getting away with PED use. That's why it was such a mistake by the World Anti-Doping Association to announce during lockdown that they were not doing any testing. That was just a green light for the cheats to get on the gear!

I have recently filled out my latest form for UKAD to tell them about my whereabouts for the next three months so they can test me whenever they want and it should be the same for every fighter.

I still don't believe the governing bodies are taking the whole issue of drug use seriously enough and you do wonder if it will take a tragedy for those in authority to raise their game.

The problem in America is that they have different rules in each State and that needs to change immediately because the PED curse has to be crushed.

I don't know how anyone can cheat by using the drugs and then gain any sort of satisfaction from winning a fight when they know that they've been juiced to the eyeballs. But it seems that temptation to cheat to earn a living is just too great for some.

Our sport really needs to protect its reputation and be ruthless with PED cheats - they have to be kicked out. Miller is appealing his latest positive test but if that fails then that has to be the end of his ring career.

If, on the other hand, he is given another chance, it sends a signal that it's worth taking the risk of cheating in a sport in which men and women can be maimed for life or killed.

What is intermittent fasting and what to actually eat while intermittent fasting – Lifestyle Asia

Intermittent fasting is one of the top lifestyle trends this year not only because we came out of COVID-19 looking a little chubbier and tubbier, but also because it has proven results with (relatively) little effort required. Nevertheless, as with all diets (and diet fads), its important to be properly informed before embarking on a journey of changing your eating habits.

Here, Dr Priya Khorana gives us the ultimate low-down on intermittent fasting, from the perspective of someone who really knows a thing or two about this stuff. Read on, take note, and decide for yourself if youre ready to (stomach) rumble.

Intermittent fasting (IF) is not a diet. It is a timed approach to eating, and unlike a restricted fad diet, it does not specify what foods a person should eat or avoid. To put simply; IF does not change what you eat, it changes when you eat.

It may have some health benefits, including weight loss and improved insulin sensitivity, but it is not suitable for everyone and should be done with careful consideration. People with advanced diabetes or who are on medications for diabetes, people with a history of eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia, and pregnant or breastfeeding women should not attempt intermittent fasting unless under the close supervision of a physician who can monitor them.

Having said that, there are some evidence-based benefits of IF. In men, it has shown to reduce insulin resistance and lower blood sugar levels (and thereby reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes). It has also been shown to reduce oxidative damage and inflammation, thereby slowing down the effects of ageing. Lastly, the insulin levels drop human growth hormone (HGH) increases, which helps facilitate fat burning and muscle gain.

Depending on your IF approach, youre either shortening the eating window each day or engaging in 24-hour fasts one or more times a week. One of the most popular approaches is the 16:8 method, which is when you fast for an eight-hour window this is often the approach I go for. It is vital to stress that folks use an eating approach that works and is sustainable to them.

The 16:8 MethodThis is also called the Leangains Protocol and involves skipping breakfast and restricting your daily eating period to 8 hours, such as 1-9:00 pm. Then you fast for 16 hours in between.

The Eat-Stop-EatThis involves fasting for 24 hours, once or twice a week. For example, you may not eat from dinner one day until dinner the next day.

The 5:2 DietWith this method, you consume only 500-600 calories on two non-consecutive days of the week but eat normally the other 5 days.

As a doctor of nutrition, I will always recommend foods for improved health, including high-fibre, unprocessed, whole foods in all colours and varieties. A mostly plant-based Mediterranean-style diet has been linked to improved health benefits, and in this case, I will suggest this way of life even whilst fasting. Making sure you are nourishing your body as effectively prior to starting your fast will help prevent any feelings of being hangry during the fast.

It is also vital for me to suggest that if you are embarking on an IF journey, staying hydrated is key. Fasting can come with some initial side effects, such as increased hunger, low blood sugar, headache, irritability, dizziness, and fatigue so please embark with caution.

Limiting your dining window does not give you an excuse to binge eat especially on unhealthy foods because you will not see the benefits. Eating unwholesome (read: junk) food in a shortened feeding window on the IF diet may also put you at risk of deficiencies in key nutrients such as calcium, iron, protein, and fibre, all of which are essential for normal biological function.

What you need to do is consume a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, whole-grains, and sufficient lean protein and healthy fat boosting important antioxidants and nutrients which all result in an increased lifespan and reduces the risks of developing lifestyle-related chronic diseases.

What is important to emphasise is that the goal of IF is to maintain a healthy amount of calories for your body during the fast so you do not rebound eat.

For those starting out, I suggest implementing a 12-hour fasting/12-hour eating window and building up from there, eventually finding a schedule that works best for you. The most important thing is breaking your fast with fresh, unprocessed, nutrient-dense whole foods, prioritising healthy sources of protein and good fats, all while limiting junk foods that negate any benefits of IF.
