The highly respected scholar will participate in a live video discussion at the world's largest independent educational event for mental health professionals.

MALVERN, PA. (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
The Evolution of Psychotherapy Conference, the official meeting of the Milton H. Erickson Foundation, today announced that Noam Chomsky, "the father of modern linguistics," will participate in a live video interview as part of the opening keynote session. The keynote will kick off the first day of the five-day meeting scheduled for December 9–13, 2020, in Anaheim, California.
An American theoretical linguist, Chomsky's work revolutionized the field of linguistics by treating language as a uniquely human, biologically based cognitive capacity. His contributions to the field of cognitive psychology and the philosophies of mind and language helped initiate and sustain what became known as the "cognitive revolution."
The interview-style session will be led by Dr. Jeffrey Zeig, director and founder of the Milton H. Erickson Foundation. Dr. Zeig will engage Chomsky in a discussion of how therapists can harness linguistics to become better communicators in order to improve patient relationships, understanding, and care.
"We are honored to have such a revolutionary mind as Noam Chomsky contribute to our educational experience," said Dr. Zeig. "Noam has been the most-requested speaker for our conference for decades, and it is particularly special that he has chosen to join us for our 35-year anniversary meeting, which also coincides with the 135th anniversary of the practice of psychotherapy. This will truly be a once-in-a-lifetime experience for our attendees."
Dubbed "the Woodstock of Psychotherapy" by TIME, the Evolution of Psychotherapy meeting is expected to attract 8,000 professionals from around the world who include clinical and counseling psychologists, psychiatrists, and marriage and family counselors. The meeting agenda is focused on strengthening clinical practice and highlighting the unifying principles that guide effective clinical work.
Participants in the 2020 meeting will gain insight from 50 expert faculty and 10 keynoters, each considered trailblazers in their field, and have the ability to earn up to 50 CE/CME credits.

FARGO, N.D. (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Michael Noffze offers experienced wisdom teeth removal in Fargo, ND. With over 16 years of training and experience, Dr. Noffze can successfully extract problem and impacted wisdom teeth in teens and adults without damaging surrounding teeth. Removing wisdom teeth as soon as possible is beneficial to the oral and overall health of most patients as these extra teeth can cause many problems down the line if left unaccounted for.
Wisdom teeth are extra molars that begin to develop in the back of a patient's mouth during the mid to late teenage years. Most people do not have enough space in their mouth to support these extra teeth, resulting in impacted wisdom teeth. When wisdom teeth do not erupt fully, they can cause many harmful effects to the oral and overall health of a patient, so wisdom teeth extraction is often recommended. Wisdom tooth extraction is an advanced procedure that involves understanding the structure of the mouth, jaw, teeth and bone to surgically remove the tooth from the jawbone without damaging nerves, bone or surrounding teeth.
"As wisdom teeth grow, many people do not have their wisdom teeth fully erupt in their mouth. They stay impacted in the bone and soft tissue and can lead to a lot of problems down the road, including decay, cysts or infection of the impacted tooth. The way to eliminate that is to remove those teeth," says Dr. Noffze. "The big benefit of wisdom teeth removal from an oral surgeon is pure experience. We literally do hundreds and hundreds of these a year for patients."
Dr. Noffze is an experienced oral surgeon with years of training and experience in wisdom teeth removal. Oral surgeons are often referred to for this advanced procedure as they routinely perform it for patients. Dr. Noffze removes hundreds of wisdom teeth every year for Fargo and surrounding area patients. This experience leads to improved surgical time and reduced post-operative healing, which means that the extraction can be completed quicker and patients recover sooner.
To complement his experience, Dr. Noffze also features state-of-the-art technology, like 3D CBCT scanners. This allows him to capture detailed images of the mouth and create a precise treatment plan prior to the surgery. Understanding where tooth roots and jaw nerves are located allows Dr. Noffze to perform wisdom tooth removal without harming surrounding bone or tissue. Patients are also able to undergo IV sedation or general anesthesia during the procedure to help prevent anxiety and block sensations of discomfort.
Those in need of wisdom teeth removal in Fargo, ND are encouraged to contact Dr. Noffze at The Facial and Oral Surgery Center to make an appointment. The practice can be reached by calling 701-232-9565 or visiting the website at http://www.tfaosc.com.

Ensure Business Continuity with Locked Down Virtual Environment.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
Global organizations are implementing 14-day quarantine, or "quarantine at home" procedures for staff who have traveled to areas affected by the Coronavirus. These crisis response measures introduce new information security risks for organizations and their clients.
"Even the most prepared organization's plans will be challenged by rapidly evolving remote work scenarios," said Jordan Ellington, founder of SecureReview. "Government mandated travel restrictions, quarantines and illness affect staff of all levels, including executives who may not be able to get to work."
Staff who weren't previously cleared to work outside the office due to information security policies may find themselves in a quarantine scenario that pits business operations against policies that restrict access to sensitive information. Corporate IT departments will also be challenged to provide at short notice a scalable and secure remote computing environment that meets the organization's security and data privacy requirements.
Outside vendors, such as contract attorney staffing agencies, may also have staff that suddenly can't reach review centers due to quarantines. Vendors then face similar challenges to deploy secure remote computing environments that meet client security requirements without delaying document reviews.
Secure Remote Work Environments Support Business Continuity
SecureReview helps address these issues by extending a secure work environment to quarantined remote workers, thus helping balance information security compliance with the demands of urgent projects and of the business to continue operating as normally as possible.
A global SecureReview client said, "SecureReview is an important part of our business continuity plan to protect highly confidential information when staff and contractors need to work outside the office on an as-needed, matter-specific basis."
Total isolation of client data is critical on remote personal computing devices that may be compromised by malware. Screenshot prevention, data transfer restrictions (copy/print/save) and matter-specific email, help ensure access to confidential information without leaks.
SecureReview can help reduce Coronavirus-related business disruptions by enabling staff from corporations, law firms and service providers to continue working remotely on sensitive projects while maintaining a strong security posture.
About SecureReview
SecureReview was founded in 2017 to help legal, financial and life sciences organizations protect sensitive data with a transparent layer of security. SecureReview protects document reviews, investigations, translations, deals, audits, and any situation where organizations share extremely sensitive files with external users, while meeting stringent corporate IT and regulatory security requirements.

An outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by the 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) began in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China in December 2019, and has spread throughout China and to 31 other countries and territories, including the United States. Coronaviruses are enveloped viruses. There are many enveloped viruses, including HBV, HCV, HIV and influenza. They are pathogenic to humans, meaning that they make you sick. The lipid envelope of these viruses is relatively sensitive and thus can be destroyed by alcohols similar to those used in the EnviroShield system, such as ethanol or 2-propanol.
JAN-PRO disinfecting processes follow a proven program that uses the broadest spectrum, hospital-strength disinfectants with maximum killing power. JAN-PRO's proprietary EnviroShield system has been proven effective against other, similar enveloped viruses.
Bacteria, viruses, and lingering odors have no place in a clean and hygienic workspace. That's why JAN-PRO franchisees use our exclusive EnviroShield system for commercial disinfection and deodorization. The commercial disinfectant used in the EnviroShield system offers medical-grade disinfection, eliminating over 99.99% of bacteria and viruses. This includes dangerous bacteria like salmonella and E. coli, common viruses like the cold and flu, and disinfectant-resistant pathogens like MRSA. Even though it's tough on germs, the disinfectant used in the EnviroShield system is gentle on people and the environment. This disinfectant carries the EPA's highest grade for safety and non-toxicity. It generates no harmful residues, no toxic byproducts, and no harsh or irritating fumes.
As an industry leading commercial cleaning franchise system, JAN-PRO has perfected cleaning systems, services, products, equipment and technologies for over 25 years.

International Investors and Analysts Review Industry Impact of IDEAL IMPLANT—the Latest Advancement in Breast Implant Technology.

DALLAS (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
Ideal Implant Incorporated Founder and CEO, Robert S Hamas, MD, was invited to present the latest breast implant technology at the IMCAS Innovation Shark Tank 2020 in Paris, France in January. The international conference featured start-ups and new innovations in the dermatology, plastic surgery, and aesthetic science industries that promise to revolutionize medical practices in their fields.
"After only five years on the consumer market, the IDEAL IMPLANT Structured Breast Implant is proving to be a disruptive technology, with strong clinical data that better addresses women's concerns," Dr. Hamas explained to attendees. "It's patented, unique internal structure offers women the natural feel and look of silicone gel implants, yet a woman can look in the mirror and know her implants are intact, while having the peace of mind of only saline inside. The design has captured the benefits of other types of implants without their drawbacks."
Recent market studies show that peace of mind is increasingly a factor when women choose a breast implant. As the IDEAL IMPLANT eight-year clinical trial data demonstrated significantly lower rates of complications such as rupture and capsular contracture over silicone gel implants, while allowing for instant rupture detection without the MRIs required with silicone gel implants, women are pressuring surgeons to offer the new technology. As a result, the company is investing in expanded production facilities to meet the overwhelming demand the IDEAL IMPLANT design has seen since becoming available in 2015.
"We received many outstanding applications and had the very difficult mission of selecting the 15 start-ups that would pitch their innovations live to the jury and audience of high profile venture-capitals, industry leaders and KOL physicians," explained an IMCAS spokesperson. "Among the submissions, Ideal Implant was clearly a very interesting innovation with the potential to disrupt its industry, and we were glad to have them take part in this Innovation Shark Tank."
About Ideal Implant 
Ideal Implant Incorporated, founded in 2006, is privately held and based in Dallas, TX. The company has developed the IDEAL IMPLANT, designed the manufacturing processes including proprietary robotic shell fabrication technology, conducted a large US clinical trial, and received PMA approval from FDA and Health Canada in 2014. The marketing strategy has been focused on female consumers, who make the ultimate decision on their choice of implant. Growth in consumer demand has been rapid since commercial launch in 2015 - the IDEAL IMPLANT brand has become well recognized in the plastic surgery market, and plans are underway for expansion of manufacturing capacity to meet the growing demand.

Common procedures included in a smile makeover are: 

Invisalign

Dental implants

Porcelain veneers

Teeth whitening

Better Image Dentistry is proud to offer the gold standard solution for missing or failing teeth, with modern dental implants.

Drs. Patrick Cieplak and Charniece Whitaker restore flawed smiles into new, beautiful smiles with cosmetic dentistry in La Plata, MD. The doctors offer a wide range of cosmetic dentistry services, including Invisalign tooth alignment.

LA PLATA, MD. (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
Cieplak Dental Excellence is transforming damaged, flawed, and crooked teeth into beautiful new smiles through effective cosmetic dentistry in La Plata, MD. Having a beautiful smile does more than just renew confidence, it can also significantly improve oral health. Dr. Patrick Cieplak and Charniece Whitaker offer a variety of cosmetic dentistry solutions to help improve both the beauty and health of patient smiles.
Cosmetic dentistry is a branch of dentistry that often focuses on the aesthetics of the smile and teeth. With effective cosmetic dentistry treatments, patients can transform a disfigured, flawed or unattractive mouth into a beautiful smile. Some of the most common concerns that can be corrected with cosmetic dentistry include stained teeth, crooked teeth, missing teeth, cracked or damaged teeth and teeth that have unattractive metal fillings.
Cieplak Dental Excellence offers a wide range of cosmetic dentistry services to help restore a beautiful smile and a healthy mouth. These treatments include: 

Professional teeth whitening

Composite fillings

Dental crowns and bridges

Invisalign

Porcelain veneers

While the primary goal of cosmetic dentistry is to improve the look of the smile, many of the treatments can also improve the overall health of the mouth too. Filling in the unattractive gaps of missing teeth can also fully restore a patient's ability to chew and speak. Invisalign aligns teeth to their correct position, which not only creates a beautiful smile but improves the occlusion of the bite, helping teeth connect better when the mouth closes. Dental crowns provide both a healthy structure and attractive appearance to teeth, while preserving the health of a natural tooth and root.
One of the most common cosmetic dentistry treatments performed at Cieplak Dental Excellence is Invisalign. Similar to traditional braces, Invisalign is used to align teeth to their proper position and create an attractive and harmonious bite. This treatment is popular because Invisalign utilizes clear aligners instead of metal brackets and wires. This means that patients are able to have a more beautiful smile throughout the alignment process and enjoy the comfort of wearing clear, plastic aligners that can be easily removed to eat or drink any foods. This alignment solution is both a cosmetic and functional treatment for most patients.
Those interested in enhancing the beauty of their smile can schedule an appointment at Cieplak Dental Excellence for cosmetic dentistry in La Plata, MD by visiting http://www.patcieplakdds.com or calling 301-609-9999.

This Gum Disease Awareness Month, periodontist, Dr. Andres Sanchez from PerioWest, is spreading awareness of gum disease symptoms in Eden Prairie, MN, such as swollen gums and bad breath, as well as treatments available for those who suffer from this disease.

EDEN PRAIRIE, MINN. (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
Respected periodontist, Dr. Andres Sanchez of PerioWest, is taking the time to help those in Eden Prairie, MN and surrounding areas learn more about periodontal disease during Gum Disease Awareness Month. Known to affect millions across the United States, gum disease leads to systemic problems and tooth loss if it is not treated by a dental provider. However, when early symptoms of this disease are recognized and treated, such as swollen gums and bad breath, the condition can be reversed or maintained.
Periodontal disease, or gum disease, stems from a build-up of bacteria in the gums that progressively attacks soft and hard tissues. Early symptoms of gum disease may be subtle and even painless, which leads many people to ignore the warning signs of gingivitis, the first stage of periodontal disease. At the advent of gingivitis, individuals may experience bleeding gums, reddish or dark gums, swollen gums and bad breath. If left to advance, gum disease moves to later stages of periodontitis, where the gum infection destroys healthy gums, tooth and bone. Gum disease has been linked to heart disease, diabetes and certain types of cancer, making it a potentially serious issue that requires professional treatment.
At PerioWest, Dr. Sanchez utilizes the latest, most minimally invasive solutions to reduce the bacteria that lead to gum disease. This includes laser dentistry using the LANAP protocol, scaling and root planing and microsurgery when appropriate. The overarching goal of this practice is to minimize the long-term effects of the condition and improve gum health, while simultaneously providing high-quality treatment and reliable patient comfort.
Individuals who believe they may have gum disease in Eden Prairie, MN are encouraged to contact PerioWest to set up a consultation. Those who have already lost teeth due to progressive gum disease can visit PerioWest to talk about placement of dental implants. To schedule an appointment, the office can be reached by calling 952-567-7457.
About the Periodontist
PerioWest is a periodontal practice offering personalized dental care for patients in Eden Prairie, MN and the Twin Cities areas. Dr. Andres R. Sanchez received his Certificate & Master's Degree in Periodontics from the prestigious Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. He is a board-certified periodontist and a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology. In addition, Dr. Sanchez has been involved as a primary author in more than ten scientific papers published in major periodontal and implant dentistry journals.

Esteemed dentist, Dr. Kevin Hogan of Smiles by Hogan, helps curb dental fear in Charleston, SC by providing leading-edge sedation dentistry at his Mt. Pleasant practice.

CHARLESTON, S.C. (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
Dr. Kevin Hogan, dentist and founder of Smiles by Hogan located in Mt. Pleasant, SC, helps patients reduce their dental fear and get the care they need. He achieves this goal by utilizing leading-edge, safe sedation dentistry techniques to make visits less stressful for individuals worried about going to the dentist for treatment.
Dental anxiety is a common condition affecting a high percentage of children and adults. It presents itself as a low-grade or severe fear of the dentist that can lead many people to avoid making or keeping dental appointments. Unmanaged and unaddressed dental fear can put individuals at risk of not getting the oral healthcare they deserve, leaving them at greater risk for developing gum disease, cavities, tooth pain, tooth loss and related systemic issues.
"Twenty-five percent of the public does not go to the dentist out of fear," says Dr. Hogan. "Sedation dentistry allows patients to have the needed dentistry done, that they wouldn't get done otherwise, in a comfortable environment."
At Smiles by Hogan, Dr. Hogan helps patients with dental anxiety by offering a relaxing sedation dentistry technique known as oral conscious sedation. Oral conscious sedation involves taking medications before the start of treatment to ease patient worries, as well as improve mental and physical comfort levels. Patients who undergo oral conscious sedation dentistry have a sense of calm throughout procedures, allowing them to undergo single or multiple treatments during one visit. Many individuals with dental fear appreciate this type of so-called "sleep dentistry" to enable them to undergo tooth extractions and dental implant placements, not to mention routine cleanings, with comfort.

STANFIELD, N.C. (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
"While earning your daily bread, be sure you share a slice with those less fortunate." – Jackson Brown, Jr.
Community is an essential part of everyday existence and when it comes to giving back to the community, any action, big or small can make a real difference. For Eudy's Cabinets, acts of service for their community is one way to show their appreciation to the residents of the Carolinas for over 50 years of support.
For the last five years, Eudy's Cabinets has had the honor of being able to construct and donate cabinets to the St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway in Charlotte, North Carolina.

About St. Jude Children's Hospital
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, located in Memphis, Tennessee, is one of the world's premier pediatric cancer research centers. Its mission is to find cures for children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Since opening, childhood cancer survival rates have increased from 20% in 1962 to 80% today, and St. Jude has a goal of getting that number to 90% in the next decade. St. Jude changes lives of children every day, both with the treatment they provide at no cost to their patients and with the research they freely share with other hospitals all over the world.
How we got involved.
Jeff Newton, owner of Newton Custom Homes and Realty reached out to the folks at Eudy's Cabinets in 2014 after recently having worked with them on another project. Impressed by the quality of the work done, he told them about the opportunity to work with him and other donors to complete the dream home that would be given away. Being a company that is all about sharing their good fortune, they said "absolutely" and have been a part of the project every year. In a recent interview with Jeff Newton, he expressed that he now works with Eudy's Cabinets for all of his cabinetry needs outside of the St. Jude Dream Home project. He is looking forward to maintaining a positive relationship with Eudy's Cabinets and completing more projects with them.
"It is the best of the best that they're donating. They custom make everything and I could not expect more from them." - Jeff Newton

The president of Eudy's Cabinets, Wesley Eudy, had the opportunity this year to travel to Memphis, Tennessee for the 2019 St. Jude Dream Home Builder Summit. He had the opportunity to take a tour around the facility and listen to amazing stories about patients and helpers. Giving back is an integral part of the culture at Eudy's and they are honored to have the opportunity to be a part of a project that changes the life of an individual. They look forward to next year's St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway Project.

Physicians from Shady Grove Fertility (SGF), a premier fertility and IVF center, will host 14 free, in-person and virtual educational events in March.

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
In honor of Endometriosis Month and PCOS Advocacy Day in March, SGF physicians will offer support through two virtual webinars; information seekers can learn about the conditions and their respective impacts on fertility. SGF physicians will discuss when to seek help from a fertility specialist and will outline treatment options. Additional fertility topics offered through SGF's March events include elective egg freezing, donor egg treatments, IVF, and "what to expect when you're not expecting" (a guide to fertility testing and treatments).
Endometriosis is a common condition in which cells that ordinarily line the uterine cavity reside in the pelvis leading to cyclic pelvic pain, inflammation, and sometimes scarring in and around the Fallopian tubes. In support of those affected by endometriosis, and to honor Endometriosis Awareness Month, Sunita Kulshrestha, M.D., of SGF's Waldorf, MD, office will host a virtual Endometriosis webinar on Thursday, March 26.
"While having endometriosis does not necessarily mean that one will experience infertility, those afflicted with the condition are at a higher risk of developing infertility," says Dr. Kulshrestha. "Women with known or suspected endometriosis, especially those with what is called stage 3 or 4 endometriosis (meaning significant lesions or adhesions that can cause anatomic distortion), we recommend a fertility evaluation sooner rather than later."
Polycystic ovary syndrome, or PCOS, is the most common endocrine condition in women and is associated with irregular or absent menstrual cycles and sometimes with unwanted hair growth (on the face or chest) and acne. In honor of PCOS Advocacy Days (March 11-12 on Capitol Hill, Washington, D.C.), Caleb Kallen, M.D., Ph.D., of SGF's Chesterbrook and Philadelphia, PA, offices will host a virtual PCOS webinar on Tuesday, March 24.
"PCOS is one of the most common hormonal disorders in women of childbearing age and is estimated to affect nearly 10% of reproductive age women," says Kallen. "Naturally, absent or irregular menstrual cycles makes it difficult or impossible to get pregnant without treatment. Fortunately, there are several effective (and affordable) treatments for PCOS. Our PCOS webinar seeks to eliminate some of the mysteries surrounding PCOS and to educate patients on how we can approach PCOS to help women conceive."
While all SGF events are complimentary (*unless otherwise noted), interested parties must register to attend by visiting the SGF calendar of events.
March Modern Family Seminar 
March 5 | Philadelphia, PA | Featuring SGF's Brianna Schumacher, M.D.

During the month of March, Professional Physical Therapy is raising awareness of the Athletic Training profession, while honoring the company's ATs and those in the communities they serve, for the compassionate care they provide to student-athletes.
The planned activities include a social media campaign led by our ATs showcasing the different ways they take action to positively affect the lives of athletes.

The Iona Gaels ceremony will take place at the Wednesday, March 4th game at the Hynes Athletics Center in New Rochelle, NY and the St. John's Red Storm celebration will happen on Saturday, March 7th at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan, NY. Each ceremony will include a PA announcement and plaque presentation to the school's athletic training staff.
"It's impossible to measure the impact athletic trainers have on student-athletes; not just here at Iona College, but across the nation," said Iona College's Director of Athletics, Matthew Glovaski. "The hours, skills and passion involved with the job are inspiring to the student-athletes they help directly, and to the countless other staff members who work with and around our sports medicine personnel. We at Iona are proud to work with Professional Physical Therapy and the National Athletic Trainers' Association in shining a spotlight on all athletic trainers and the immeasurable influence they have on college athletics."
Angelo Marsella, Director of Sports Medicine at Professional Physical Therapy added, "Because I get to work with over 50 Athletic Trainers and 50 schools directly, March is always an exciting time, as it rejuvenates me and reminds me why I've been an Athletic Trainer for 19 years. Through collaboration with communities, families, coaches and other healthcare professionals such as physicians, physician assistants, nurses and physical therapists, to name a few, I can attest to the many ways 'ATs Impact Health Care Through Action,' which happens to be this year's NATA slogan!"
Professional Physical Therapy provides Athletic Training services to more than 50 schools in the Northeast, offering a continuum of care from the time of injury through return to sport.

Alloy Personal Training Franchise opens the Atlanta market where they project eight markets are available, including Roswell, Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Buckhead, Midtown, Marietta, Suwanee, and East Cobb for people interested in becoming franchisees in the fitness space.

ATLANTA (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
Rick Mayo launched his original personal training business as North Point in Roswell, Georgia, back in 1992. After nearly a quarter-century of success in 2011, Rick and his team started Alloy Personal Training to assist major gym chains, independent gyms, health clubs, and fitness businesses around the world in deploying personal training systems for their members. At that time, the original North Point location updated its brand name to Alloy as well, and Rick entered into a partnership with long time colleague and Atlantian, Suzanne Robb, who serves as Alloy Chief Operating Officer.
Having grown their business serving thousands of fitness facilities with millions of members around the world, the team at Alloy decided to expand via franchising last year. The Alloy vision is to provide a superior personal training franchise solution uniquely focused on serving the ever-growing, "active aging" population.
The decision to pivot to franchising given their experience and understanding of the fitness industry appears to have been timely; in only months following their initial launch, the company has already sold several development deals. Now the brand has its sights set on the Atlanta market where they project eight markets are available, including Roswell, Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Buckhead, Midtown, Marietta, Suwanee, and East Cobb for people interested in becoming franchisees in the fitness space.
Fitness industry expert Bryan O'Rourke, board member of IHRSA (International Association for Health Clubs) and investor in several global fitness brands, said, "The Alloy team's experience and understanding of the marketplace and business models sets them apart as a fitness franchise. I expect great things ahead for this brand."
"The name 'Alloy' is the notion of strength and motion meeting; those two things coming together to create something bigger, stronger, and longer-lasting," says founder Rick Mayo. "Over the past few years, our team wanted to do even more to meet our mission. We know a formula that works, and that is a key ingredient to a successful franchise."
A native Atlantian, Mayo has received many accolades as a fitness and personal training guru over the years. He has traveled the world speaking on fitness business trends in Australia, Europe, and the Americas. In 2019 Mayo was recognized with the prestigious AFS Fitness Business of the Year award. The AFS award honors a studio or gym that excels in all areas of business and whose owner has demonstrated the ability to create excellent customer experiences, dedicated staff, motivated clients, and leadership in their community.
"We are excited to open up the Atlanta market," says Suzanne Robb, Alloy COO, "Being in such close proximity to the flagship location or the 'mothership' as we like to call it will enable us to use our knowledge and experience of the market to help our hometown investors and set our new franchisees up for success."
"We have incorporated everything that we have learned to own and operate a successful Personal Training Fitness Business," says Tony Chemer, VP of Franchise Sales, "allowing us to provide total support for our business partners with the specifications and systems that are already proven in thousands of gyms worldwide."
Team Alloy is Founder and CEO Rick Mayo, COO Suzanne Robb, VP of Franchise Development Tony Chemer, and VP of Education Matt Helland.
Discovery days are underway, and territories are now being awarded. If you or someone you know is interested in having their own successful personal training business, the Alloy systems are well developed, and they are focusing on very discreet segments.

In 2007, the World Health Organization designated March 3 as World Hearing Health Day in order to raise awareness of the growing numbers of those suffering from hearing loss and the importance of hearing health care.

ST. LOUIS (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
In 2007, the World Health Organization designated March 3 as World Hearing Health Day in order to raise awareness of the growing numbers of those suffering from hearing loss and the importance of hearing health care.
Associated Hearing Professionals and The American Academy of Audiology are focused on educating the public about hearing loss and the impact it has on quality of life. We are grateful that this awareness day was created to shine a light on the significance of hearing loss.
"Noise-induced hearing loss is a preventable and significant factor," said Dr. Margaret Fritsch Juelich, audiologist. Associated Hearing Professionals and a member of the American Academy of Audiology. "This growing health problem is often unrecognized in U.S. adults, adolescents and children and it leads to a long list of problems including depression, isolation, academic delays, impaired communication and cognitive decline. In 2013, a study from the Johns Hopkins Center of Aging and Health concluded that those with untreated hearing loss showed a faster decline in cognition (brain function) than normal hearing individuals. Untreated hearing loss can also cause an increase in cognitive load, and this can lead to anxiety.
The many consequences of untreated hearing loss lead to social isolation and that contributes to depression and a decrease in brain stimulation. Treating hearing loss allows people to become more engaged socially and social engagement is considered one of the most important factors affecting quality of life.
While age is still the greatest factor in hearing loss, many younger people also experience hearing problems due to exposure to loud music and noises including occupational noise. Among adults aged 70 and older with hearing loss who could benefit from hearing aids, fewer than one in three (30 percent) has ever used them. With adults aged 20 to 69 only approximately 16 percent of those who would benefit from hearing aids have ever used them.
"Audiologists diagnose and treat hearing loss," Dr. Juelich explained. "Anyone suspecting a hearing issue should see an audiologist who will perform a series of tests to determine the problem, if there is one, and will then recommend treatment."
Some signs of hearing loss may include: 

Having to turn up the volume of the television, radio, or stereo and having other family members complain that the volume is too loud.

Difficulty understanding people speaking to you and asking people to repeat themselves.

Difficulty with phone conversations and understanding the other person.

Sudden inability to hear the door bell, the dog barking, and other household sounds.

People telling you that you speak too loudly.

Ringing in the ears.

School-aged children with hearing loss will sometimes exhibit poor school performance because they can't understand the teacher assignments or classroom interactions. If hearing loss has been present from a young age, they often don't recognize the loss and can't identify the problem.
The audiologists of Associated Hearing Professionals are passionate about improving quality of life through better hearing. A mild hearing loss is not a mild problem. Untreated hearing loss has a significant impact on overall health and interactions with family, friends and co-workers. Improve your hearing, improve your health and improve your happiness!
The American Academy of Audiology is the world's largest professional organization of, by and for audiologists. The active membership of more than 12,000 is dedicated to providing quality hearing care services through professional development, education, research, and increased public awareness of hearing and balance disorders.

Smartphone App Aimed at Prevention of Substance Use Disorder

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
CHESS Health, the leading provider of comprehensive addiction management technology, has received a fast-track grant of $1.5 million from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). The goal of the grant, identified as 1R44DA050214, is to improve the rate at which those at risk of substance use disorder (SUD), or who require SUD treatment, actually follow through on recommendations following screening in a primary care setting.
CHESS Health's innovative eIntervention solution, launched in 2019, is currently deployed at dozens of medical and addiction providers nationwide, ranging from hospitals to MAT clinics to full-continuum behavioral health providers. The web-based solution automates referrals for treatment and wrap-around services through closed-loop provider-to-provider communications. In addition, eIntervention uniquely engages the patient throughout the transition of care through its companion Envoy app, which offers the patient real-time referral details, informative and motivating video content, and secure messaging with their providers.
The NIDA grant will fund the enhancement of the Envoy app to deliver targeted interventions to individuals reporting risky use of substances, but who have not yet developed full-onset SUD requiring treatment. Kathleen Carroll, PhD, the Albert E Kent Professor of Psychiatry at Yale University School of Medicine, will lead a panel of SBIRT experts in designing the preventative interventions to be added to the Envoy app. SBIRT is the clinical practice of screening for substance use, brief intervention and referral to treatment.
In order to streamline the administrative process, the grant is presented in two phases. For both phases, CHESS Health will collaborate with Cherry Health, the largest Federally Qualified Health Center in Michigan. In Phase 1, Cherry Health will conduct a usability trial of the Envoy app for patients referred to treatment for substance use disorder. In Phase 2, Cherry Health will conduct a randomized clinical trial of the effectiveness of the Envoy app in increasing successful referrals to treatment and in reducing substance use among those reporting risky use but not requiring treatment.
"This NIDA grant will enable us to add prevention functionality to our current addiction treatment technology platform, which already includes smartphone-delivered evidence-based treatment and recovery support, digital cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and referral to treatment," says Hans Morefield, chief executive officer of CHESS Health. "At CHESS, addressing the personal and societal crisis of addiction is foremost on our minds – preventing addiction is the next frontier."
Cherry Health's interest in the proposal was spurred by its commitment to fully integrate health services with substance use disorders and mental illness into its primary care mission as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC).
"SBIRT is a terrific practice, but it is not enough when it comes to improving patient adherence to treatment referrals," says Leslie Pelkey, MD, and chief medical officer of Cherry Health. "That's why we're very interested in this initiative to improve health outcomes, and the overall patient experience by making SBIRT actionable."
"We have two goals with this grant," explained Dr. Carroll. "We want to double the current rate of follow-up specialty SUD care from approximately 17 percent to an achieved rate of at least 35 percent, and we want to measure a reduction in substance use among all patients that get the Envoy app. If we achieve these goals, this effort will be an important milestone in applying technology to the prevention of addiction."
About CHESS Health 
CHESS Health creates innovative solutions designed at the intersection of science, technology and recovery. Founded by nationally recognized substance abuse researcher Dr. Dave Gustafson, CHESS developed A-CHESS, the leading evidence-based relapse prevention technology. By integrating A-CHESS into treatment plans, providers can best support those in recovery with access to predictive relapse analytics, condition-specific content and access to live support, which reduces relapse by 50% while decreasing costs and saving lives. The recent addition of eReferral capability prior to treatment, and an eTherapy functionality during treatment, creates an industry-leading technology platform to support the full continuum of care. CHESS Health has received recognition from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP), the Journal of Substance Abuse, and the Surgeon General.

Board-certified orthopedic surgeon and fellowship-trained hand and upper extremity specialist J. Christopher Gayton, M.D., of OrthoSC offers expert guidelines for all those undertaking spring projects.

CONWAY, S.C. (PRWEB) MARCH 03, 2020
Board-certified orthopedic surgeon and fellowship-trained hand and upper extremity specialist J. Christopher Gayton, M.D., offers expert safety guidelines for adults and families to follow while undertaking any project this season. Patients in need of specialized hand care are encouraged to call (843) 353-3460 to be seen by Dr. Gayton at OrthoSC in Conway at 2376 Cypress Circle, Suite 300.
"Every year, there are multitudes of minor and serious hand, finger and wrist injuries from home projects. There is also potential for shoulder and elbow injuries, especially when working from a higher structure," says Dr. Gayton. "From gardening to roof repair, spring projects can be fun and rewarding to take on yourself, but they also come with some safety risks.
"Minor injuries like wrist sprains as well as serious injuries like fractures, tendon tearing and amputations are all potential risks for those who undertake do-it-yourself jobs inside and outside the home," adds Dr. Gayton. "To help our community avoid hand and upper extremity injuries, I wanted to share a list of guidelines for completing projects safely."
Follow these safety tips to help avoid injuries when taking on a project: 
1. Use the proper tools, properly: Before you start a project, make sure you know how to use and care for your tools. Even hammering improperly can mean fractures in the hand or broken fingers. Sharp objects should be kept away from children. 

Gardening, landscaping, or completing big projects long-term without the right tools, proper form and gloves can mean blisters, scrapes and even overuse injuries. These include tendinitis (tendonitis) in the shoulder, wrist and elbow as well as nerve irritation.

2. Power tools are powerfully dangerous: Proper use and care for tools is even more important with power tools. Be sure you know exactly how to operate a machine before you use it to reduce your risk of injury. Do not touch drill bits or blades on a power saw, weed whacker or lawn mower before it's turned completely off. 

Stay alert while operating any motorized device—all are a major hazard and can lead to hand trauma injuries, such as fully or partially torn ligaments and tendons and nerve damage that leads to loss of muscle control. Finger amputations that require replantation are also common. Use a push stick when getting items through a power saw, and keep your hand away from a moving blade.

3. Keep your worksite clear: Make sure your working area or work surface is stable, clean and dry in a well-lit place. Any tool you are not using should be placed in a safe location out of your way so you are less likely to trip. Wrist sprains are common with falls, and without tools and objects around the ground or floor, your risk of serious injury with a fall is lower.
4. Practice ladder safety: When using a ladder, be sure to find a flat surface. Keep the weight centered and do not overextend yourself beyond your reach. Make sure someone is holding the ladder. If you fall on your hand, elbow or shoulder, you'll likely have a serious fracture or multiple fractures in addition to an elbow or shoulder dislocation and soft tissue damage, like a rotator cuff tear. Many of these injuries would require surgical intervention, such as fracture fixation, wrist fusion, rotator cuff repair and possibly elbow or shoulder replacement.
5. Give yourself a break: Taking breaks and varying your tasks can help prevent acute injuries, such as strains in your forearm and upper arm muscles, as well as chronic conditions, such as tendinitis or carpal tunnel syndrome. Improper tool use can also cause cuts and more severe tendon injuries in the forearm or hand, leading to an inability to move a finger, thumb or wrist with your own power.
"If you sustain an injury while working with tools or doing heavy lifting and you feel any numbness, intense pain or have any loss of movement in your hand, fingers or arm, seek medical attention," says Dr. Gayton. "Serious injuries to your hand, wrist, elbow, forearm or shoulder should be seen by a specialist as soon as possible. As a hand and upper extremity specialist, I understand the intricacy of the shoulder, arm and hand, so I always work with my patients to offer them the best possible outlook for retaining strength and function."
Specializing in injuries, conditions and treatments of the hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder, Dr. Gayton offers the latest care options, including elbow arthroscopy, wrist arthroscopy, shoulder arthroscopy, open and endoscopic carpal tunnel release and total shoulder replacement. He is board-certified in orthopedic surgery by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery, and Dr. Gayton is fellowship-trained in hand and upper extremity surgery through Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He sees patients at OrthoSC in Conway and offers surgical care in Conway at the Conway Medical Center and in Myrtle Beach at the Carolina Bone & Joint Surgery Center.

"From gardening to roof repair, spring projects can be fun and rewarding to take on yourself, but they come with some safety risks," says Dr. Gayton. "To help our community avoid hand and upper extremity injuries this season, I wanted to share a list of guidelines for completing projects safely."

In light of the FDA's announcement that it is requiring a boxed warned for montelukast due to the risk of neuropsychiatric events, AAAAI is urging patients on the drug to contact their healthcare provider.

MILWAUKEE (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
With the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) today announcing it is requiring a boxed warning for montelukast due to the risk of neuropsychiatric events, such as agitation, depression, sleeping problems, and suicidal thoughts and actions, the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) is stressing the importance of contacting your healthcare provider if you are on this drug.
"If you are taking montelukast and this is helpful for your symptoms, you should speak with your healthcare provider first prior to making a decision to suspend this medication," said AAAAI President David M. Lang, MD, FAAAAI, who is also Chair of the Allergy/Immunology Department in the Respiratory Institute at Cleveland Clinic.
"Alternatively, if you begin taking montelukast, or if you have been taking montelukast, and you feel sad, experience mood changes, or vivid dreams, you should suspend montelukast and contact your healthcare provider," added Dr. Lang.
Montelukast, which is sold under the brand name Singulair and in generic form, is frequently prescribed. For asthma, montelukast can be used as the sole medication taken regularly for treatment of mild persistent asthma, or in combination with other medications (e.g., inhaled corticosteroids) for management of moderate or severe persistent asthma. Patients with asthma frequently also have allergic rhinitis.
Montelukast was initially FDA approved for management of asthma, and then was also approved for seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis and for prevention of exercise-induced bronchospasm. FDA approval is as young as 12 months in asthma, two years in seasonal allergic rhinitis, six months in perennial allergic rhinitis, and six years in exercise induced bronchoconstriction.
The boxed warning that the FDA is now requiring strengthens an existing warning about the risk of neuropsychiatric events associated with the drug, and it advises healthcare providers to avoid prescribing montelukast for patients with mild symptoms, particularly those with allergic rhinitis.
You can learn more about asthma and allergic rhinitis on the AAAAI website, aaaai.org.
The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) represents allergists, asthma specialists, clinical immunologists, allied health professionals and others with a special interest in the research and treatment of allergic and immunologic diseases. Established in 1943, the AAAAI has over 7,000 members in the United States, Canada and 72 other countries. The AAAAI's Find an Allergist/Immunologist service is a trusted resource to help you find a specialist close to home.

Claire's Place Foundation medical expert provides coronavirus tips for families affected by cystic fibrosis

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Claire's Place Foundation Board Member Richard K. Mathis, M.D., who has been caring for cystic fibrosis (CF) patients for over forty years, offers advice to families affected by CF to prevent the coronavirus (CORVID-19). Individuals with CF are considered to be at the highest risk of severe disease from this virus.
"CORVID-19 is extremely infectious and has recently achieved community spread status in the U.S.," said Dr. Mathis. "This status means that individuals with CF and their household members are on the front line of the need for preventive measures. The novel virus affects the epithelial cells lining of the lungs which is detrimental to the health of someone with CF as the epithelial cells are already damaged due to CF. It is vital that caretakers and family members of individuals with CF do not bring CORVID-19 into their home and follow preventive measures immediately. In fact, someone can carry CORVID-19 without symptoms, bringing it unknowingly into the home."
To protect individuals with CF from CORVID-19 take these preventive measures:
Outside of the home: 

Public events and school closures are taking place in other countries where there are CORVID-19 outbreaks. This may happen in the U.S. For families with an individual with CF is it very important to carefully consider the public places attended even the attendance of school by siblings

Wear a labeled N-95 mask

Wash hands frequently for 20 seconds with soap and water or use hand sanitizer with 60% alcohol content

Avoid face and eye touching

Inside the home:

Disinfect frequently touched objects (i.e. TV remotes) and surfaces in your home

Home isolation and quarantine may be needed if a person has reason to suspect they have the coronavirus

Fever and increased breathing difficulty require prompt medical care. Contact your pulmonary/CF doctor

CORVID-19 is unfolding with new information reported daily. Be sure to check frequently for updated information from your local public health department or physician and on websites such as the CF Foundation, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAIFD) and CDC. Updated recommendations will occur as newer medical information, antiviral medications and vaccines become available. An end to this infection will occur. This will require a careful protective environment in and outside the home for CF patients and family members.
About Claire's Place Foundation, Inc. 
Claire's Place Foundation, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization providing support to children and families affected by cystic fibrosis (CF). Claire's Place Foundation is named in honor of Claire Wineland who lived with CF her entire life and passed away at the age of 21. Claire was an activist, author, TEDx Speaker, social media star and received numerous awards. Claire's foundation was a way for her to assure that others living with CF enjoyed the same hope, strength and joy that she enjoyed. Recipient of Los Angeles Business Journal's "Small Nonprofit of the Year," the foundation provides grants to families affected by CF, offering both emotional and financial support. Today, Claire's Place Foundation continues to carry on Claire's legacy. For more information and make a donation, please visit http://www.clairesplacefoundation.org.

The segment will feature professionals in the sector who can speak on the two fields are symbiotic.

MIAMI (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Hollywood actor Laurence Fishburne (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurence_Fishburne) is the host of the educational show "Behind The Scenes" with Laurence Fishburne. The program informs its viewing audience about a wide array of subjects affecting people around the world today. An upcoming episode will interview medical experts about the positive role orthopedics play in the field of sports medicine.
When it comes to orthopedic shoes, most people immediately think of shoes created for older folks. However, orthopedic shoes are appropriate for most athletes. People who are professional athletes, or those who are very physically active, tend to put more stress on their feet, knees, and back more than those who are non-athletes. The strain on the foot muscles, bones, and tendons can cause severe pain and potential injuries.
Many sports medicine doctors recommend their patients to wear orthopedic shoes or inserts to help treat and prevent future injuries and potential surgeries. Developers specializing in orthopedic footwear have created not only shoes, but also inserts that can help those with leg length problems, arch and ankle support, and gait issues. Some people, especially runners, can have a problem where the length of their legs is not even. Orthopedic inserts can help prevent an injury down the road.
Orthopedics play an essential part in sports medicine. The right pair of shoes can help prevent time taken off from healing injuries, which means more time focused on physical activities in the long run. "Behind The Scenes" will feature industry professionals discussing how orthopedics are positively impacting sports medicine in an upcoming episode.
"Behind The Scenes" with Laurence Fishburne is a high-quality TV program. The informational show has accepted several Tellys for its endeavors.

Critical Alert announced today its new application, CommonPath Canopy-- a software-only approach created to extend the life and feature set of a hospital's legacy nurse call system.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Critical Alert announced today its new application, CommonPath Canopy-- a software-only approach created to extend the life and feature set of a hospital's legacy nurse call system.
Canopy works by overlaying any brand of existing nurse call software with Critical Alert's CommonPath Enterprise solution and analytics platform providing more effective management of patient-to-caregiver communications at a fraction of the cost of new construction. Canopy is sold as Software as a Service (SaaS) providing customers with even more substantial ROI than traditional upgrade approaches.
The Canopy application also includes the CommonPath Clinical Analytics suite which provides both real-time and retrospective insights to support caregiver workload management, patient engagement, satisfaction and safety.
Regardless of a hospital's deployed nurse call system(s), CommonPath Canopy and Clinical Analytics can be used to enhance communications between clinical staff and their patients.
"We understand the budget constraints that all hospitals are facing and felt compelled to create a product that would eliminate the need for expensive construction projects when nurse call software becomes outdated and ineffective," stated John Elms, CEO. "Moreover, hospitals with multiple vendors and generations of nurse call can now provide their users with a common user interface and consolidated data and analytics across the entire enterprise at a compelling price point," continued Elms.
Critical Alert will be demonstrating CommonPath Canopy at HIMSS from March 10th to March 12th by appointment.

JUNO BEACH, FLA. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Document Storage Systems, Inc. (DSS, Inc.), a leading provider of health information technology (HIT) solutions for federal, private and public healthcare organizations, today announced certification as a Select Implementation Partner with InterSystems Corporation.
InterSystems Corporation is a leading database management and healthcare information systems provider that powers large EHR vendor systems, hospital infrastructures, as well as national and regional health exchanges.
HealthShare Health Connect HL7 Solutions from InterSystems provide an efficient and secure way to connect disparate medical information systems. This allows large care facilities to modernize their HIT systems while protecting the personally identifiable information (PII) of patients.
This type of patient data interoperability is especially critical for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) as it conducts a major transition to a new EHR system designed to be interoperable with the DoD health records. As part of this transition, Veterans' health records will need to be in multiple systems for a period of years to ensure seamless care.
"We are very pleased to receive this certification, which reflects our successful partnership with InterSystems and the value that relationship delivers for our customers," said Mark Byers, president of DSS, Inc. and a 2020 FedHealth IT 100 awardee. "Healthcare IT must always enhance the care received by patients, never hinder it in any way. For complex challenges such as the VA's EHR modernization program, robust and secure data interoperability is a requirement for system success."
Partners must develop and maintain a high level of expertise in technology to attain membership in the InterSystems Partner program. To achieve certification a minimum number of individuals must successfully pass certification exams and continue to be employed by the partner.
About Document Storage Systems, Inc. (DSS, Inc.)

"Skin Botox" or Botox Facial has been popular in South Korea for years but little-known in the U.S. Dr. Buckley discusses why the Aesthetic Society predicts "Skin Botox" to be a top trending cosmetic treatment in 2020.

MILFORD, PA. (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
Since 1999, Botox Cosmetic has been the number one aesthetic procedure performed by cosmetic surgeons. It's most well-known for treating facial lines and wrinkles, TMJ and migraines. Now the Aesthetic Society is predicting that a new use for Botox, known as Skin Botox, Botox Facial, Microtox, MesoBotox or Baby Botox is going to be a top trending cosmetic treatment in 2020 as more men and women are wanting to look their best, but not in an unnatural or "done" way.
"In Korea, where the ideal complexion is poreless and translucent, MesoBotox or 'Skin Botox' is the treatment Korean celebrities swear by to achieve the "glass skin" look and now MilfordMD is happy to be able to offer this fascinating treatment to our patients," says Dr. Richard E. Buckley, Cosmetic Surgeon and Medical Director of MilfordMD Cosmetic Dermatology Surgery & Laser Center. "At MilfordMD there has been an increase in patients requesting this treatment to smooth the skin and diminish fine wrinkles, especially among millennial men and women. Our commitment is to our patients, so we always strive to offer proven new procedures that deliver natural-looking results."
Trends are shifting away from overly-enhanced looks with 41% of patients stating a fear of looking unnatural as their top concern when considering cosmetic enhancements, as well as an influx in patients under 30 wanting cosmetic treatments according to the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) annual survey. "While South Korea has been using 'Skin Botox' for about 10 years, given the increasing demand for natural-looking results, especially from millennials, it's no surprise that the demand for Skin Botox in the U.S. is increasing," says Dr. Buckley.
"Traditional injections of botulinum toxin derivatives (neuromodulators), like Botox Cosmetic, Dysport, Jeuveau, and Xeomin are injected into the muscle bellies to decrease the muscular contraction. With microtox or 'Skin Botox', a diluted, small quantity of Botox, Dysport, Xeomin or Jeuveau and a hyaluronic acid filler, such as Restylane Refyne or Restylane Silk are very superficially injected into the skin where they only target the skin where oil production, facial flushing and acne occur," says Dr. Buckley. "The goal is to create particular changes in the face, such as helping to improve very fine wrinkles, decrease the production of oil, shrink pore size, and get a smoother appearance to the surface of the skin."
Traditional uses of neuromodulators (e.g. Dysport and Botox) iron out and prevent deep wrinkles in the skin by reducing muscle activity in specific areas of the face, such as the forehead, laugh lines or crow's feet. 'Skin Botox' is most frequently used to target pores to create an all-over smoothing effect.
"In order to achieve the smoothing effect, the Botox and hyaluronic acid need to be placed very superficially under the skin. At MilfordMD, the ultra-fine microneedling AQUAGOLD fine touch device is the preferred method for this treatment. Using a stamping technique, the neuromodulator and hyaluronic acid filler mixture in the AQUAGOLD fine touch device is pumped into the dermal and epidermal layers of facial skin. Since the muscles are not affected, full movement of the face remains," states Dr. Buckley. AQUAGOLD fine touch is a patented, microchannel microinjector designed to painlessly and effectively deliver microdoses of therapeutics into the skin which makes it the ideal delivery system for 'Skin Botox'. With the AQUAGOLD fine touch we deliver hundreds of microdoses in a single session compared to the handful of times Botox is traditionally injected into facial muscles.
Similar to traditional Botox injections, the results can be seen about two weeks following the treatment and last for three to six months. Men and women who are interested in reducing pore size, decreasing facial oil production and fine facial lines are great candidate for 'Skin Botox' using neuromodulators and hyaluronic sugar.
"In addition to creating a smooth, airbrushed look, 'Skin Botox' is also helpful with improving scars," says Dr. Buckley. "In fact, it's a good substance to inject at the end of a surgical procedure to minimize the scar formation following surgery. It can also be used to improve the look of acne scars, such as depressed ice-pick scars. Microtox can be used to help raise these scars from their depths and to make them more level with the rest of the facial skin. Then they are treated again with Microtox to help them blend in with the rest of the facial skin. According to a studypublished in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Botox injections reduced both the bumpiness and the width of acne scars.
"No matter what cosmetic procedure is being done, at MilfordMD the goal is to always provide ultra-natural looking results. With 'Skin Botox' patients are able to get just that. The treatment creates an airbrushed, smooth, brighter look where the patients simply looks like an improved version of themselves," says Dr. Buckley.

Dr. Richard E. Buckley of MilfordMD shares why Korean celebrities have sworn by 'Skin Botox' for years to achieve a smooth, airbrushed complexion and how it's gaining popularity in the U.S.

Patients are shifting away from wanting an overly done look, like the famous Kylie Jenner pout. Treatments like 'Skin Botox' are gaining in popularity because patients get a smoother, brighter complexion that still looks natural

Documentary Film 'Iric' Tells Story of Tragedy to Triumph, Merits 7 Festival Awards Across the Nation

VENICE, CALIF. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Iric, breakout film by Tudor Drive Productions, depicts the story of a homeless young man as he struggles to find his place in the world and make sense of a traumatic childhood.
"Our main goal with the film was to shed light on his story and give him the voice and platform to share it with the world. Iric is one of millions of young black men who have been funneled through the foster care system and have aged out with little to no hope [or knowledge] of how to go about life. The hand that he was dealt, from birth, automatically displaces him from the luxuries and norms that many of us take for granted. Our aim is to change that narrative through the works of film and change the pathway for other youth who may be in the same situation." — Marc-Anthony Robinson, Director of Photography, Cinematographer.
'Iric' has already garnered quite a bit of buzz within the industry and has won 7 festival awards across the nation.
"We made the film to elicit compassion and build understanding about the people in our communities facing homelessness. Film festival screenings provide an opportunity for people to get a peek into a life and a world that is increasingly divisive in social and political terms. Stories like Iric's need to be communicated and shared because they aren't sufficiently heard. Film allows people to meet each other who would not otherwise [interact]. I want audiences to take the time to get to know Iric's perspective and experience better. His voice gives us insight and can be used as a tool for social change." — Sandra Tamkin, Producer, Director and Founder of Tudor Drive Productions.
Filming and physical production of 'Iric' took place in Santa Monica and Venice Beach, and at "Safe Place for Youth, A Project of Community Partners", a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to empowering the resilient human spirit of homeless youth.
The film will screen at Rock the Shorts Film Festival on Saturday March 7 at 2 pm. Tickets available at Rock the Shorts Film Festival - FilmFreeway (see Block 2).

Enables the rapid production of large numbers of recombinant antibodies at 80 ml scale

REDCAR, ENGLAND (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Absolute Antibody Ltd., an industry-leading provider of recombinant antibody products and services, today announced the launch of its FleXpress high-throughput recombinant antibody production service, which offers customers the flexibility to rapidly express a large number of antibodies at 80 ml scale. All production occurs in Absolute Antibody's ISO-certified antibody manufacturing facility in Northeast England, which recently expanded to increase production capacity and meet the growing demand for recombinant antibody technology.
The high-throughput recombinant antibody production service is ideal for early-stage pharmaceutical researchers conducting pilot studies on a group of therapeutic antibody candidates, as well as reagent companies with a monoclonal antibody portfolio interested in converting their collection from hybridomas to recombinant production. Recombinant antibodies, long the standard in pharmaceutical development, are becoming increasingly popular for research and diagnostic applications due to their superior batch-to-batch reproducibility, antibody engineering options, and guaranteed long-term supply.
The antibody production service utilizes Absolute Antibody's HEXpress antibody expression platform, a serum-free, mammalian transient expression system that offers a faster, more affordable alternative to stable CHO cell line generation. The proprietary system produces high-quality recombinant antibodies in any species, isotype or format, including multispecifics and fragments, with high purity and low endotoxin levels.
The FleXpress production line can recombinantly manufacture hundreds of different antibodies per week at 80 ml scale, allowing Absolute Antibody to quickly respond to customer needs for high-throughput small-to-medium-scale recombinant antibody production. It joins two other production lines at the company's antibody manufacturing facility, which also offers the option to scale to multi-gram quantities in a matter of weeks.
"Absolute Antibody specializes in recombinant antibody technology, and we've developed a robust and reliable platform for high-throughput antibody production at relatively small scales," said Catherine Bladen, PhD, Chief Operations Officer at Absolute Antibody. "Our new production line gives our customers the flexibility to rapidly and cost-effectively test recombinant versions of many different antibodies using our proven recombinant expression technology."
In 2019, Absolute Antibody produced thousands of different recombinant antibodies, making 120 grams of protein in total, for customers across pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, research reagents, diagnostics, and academia. Since its founding in 2012, the company has also used its production platform to build a unique recombinant antibody catalog consisting of nearly 5,000 antibodies, all benefitting from antibody engineering technology. The FleXpress production service enables customers to utilize this same technology for their own recombinant antibody projects.

Isagenix International has announced its 2020 Canada IsaBody Challenge Grand Prize Winner. In honor of his inspirational weight loss transformation story, Dave te Sligte was presented with a check for CA$10,000 at the company's Canada Celebration event in Montreal, Quebec.

GILBERT, ARIZ. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Isagenix International, a global health and wellness company providing nutrition and lifestyle solutions, recently announced the grand prize winner for its annual total-body transformation program. The winner of the IsaBody Challenge was honored at the company's Canada Celebration 2020 event in Montreal, Quebec, on Saturday. The IsaBody Challenge and Canada Celebration are both hosted by Isagenix.
Canada IsaBody Grand Prize Winner Dave te Sligte was honored onstage in front of thousands of Isagenix independent distributors and presented with a check for CA$10,000.
Te Sligte was one of 12 IsaBody Finalists chosen from thousands of Canada-based participants during the 2020 Challenge. A panel of judges selected his inspirational weight loss transformation story as its top choice. Te Sligte lost 168 pounds during the eight Challenges he completed.*
"I am just overwhelmed by everything that Isagenix has done for my life," said an emotional te Sligte onstage after he was announced as the winner. "The physical change has been massive, but what this health and wellness journey has done for my family and my kids is just amazing. I am faster and stronger and have more energy than I ever imagined. I can't thank Isagenix enough."
To make the IsaBody Challenge an even more robust experience, Isagenix recently announced several enhancements, including a new IsaBody Fitness program that consists of four workouts each week. Challenge participants can access the free program via the IsaLife mobile app, where a new set of workouts with instructional videos is uploaded monthly. There is a different theme each month, with March's workouts focusing on "the new you" through weight loss and lean muscle gain — and the health benefits of both.
"Isagenix is proud to provide high-quality nutrition, tools, and resources that set our IsaBody participants up for success in their health and wellness journeys," said Travis Ogden, the company's chief executive officer. "Dave is the latest example of the impressive results our customers can achieve through the Challenge. We congratulate him and thank him for setting a terrific example for others to follow."

*Weight loss, muscle gain, lifestyle, and other results depicted here reflect exceptional individual experiences of Isagenix customers and should not be construed as typical or average. Results vary with individual effort, body composition, eating patterns, time, exercise, and other factors, such as genetic and physiological makeup. A two-phase 2016 studypublished by researchers at Skidmore College showed an average weight loss of 24 pounds after 12 weeks. The study evaluated the use of Isagenix products in men and women for weight loss followed by weight maintenance. During the weight maintenance phase, the subjects who continued the calorie-controlled program using Isagenix products better maintained their weight loss in comparison to those who transitioned to a traditional diet after 52 weeks.

Andre Panossian MD Plastic Surgery Moves into State-of-the-Art Pasadena Office

PASADENA, CALIF. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Andre Panossian MD Plastic Surgery has recently moved from its Beverly Hills office to a new surgical center in Pasadena. The state-of-the-art office is located on the top floor of a newly constructed building situated near the Huntington Memorial Hospital Campus.
The facility is conveniently located in the same building as a brand new, fully-accredited surgical center staffed by licensed anesthesiologists and nurses. Dr. Panossian sees the move to the new Pasadena office as an opportunity to serve his patients more effectively and to allow for the best possible experience before, during, and after each procedure.
Many out-of-town patients who see Dr. Panossian are able to return home or to their hotel on the same day as their procedure. However, an overnight stay at a nearby post-surgical recovery facility is sometimes advised. Dr. Panossian personally recommends Trinity Aftercare at the luxurious Langham Huntington Hotel when recovery assistance is needed. The facility is situated nearby in a beautiful suburb of Pasadena.
Another option for patients who require post-surgical care is to have a nurse stay overnight in their home or hotel room. Dr. Panossian is also on staff at Huntington Memorial Hospital and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where patients requiring close medical attention following surgery can be admitted.
Dr. Andre Panossian is a board-certified and internationally-acclaimed LA plastic surgeon specializing in rhinoplasty, facial aesthetics, and body contouring. In addition to cosmetic surgery, he also treats a variety of medical conditions such as facial paralysis, neurofibromatosis, pediatric plastic surgery, and vascular birthmarks. With the new location, Dr. Panossian adds a licensed aesthetician to his roster and now offers high end non-invasive treatments such as Morpheus8, Forma RF skin remodeling, DiamondTome microdermabrasion, Lumecca IPL, VI Facial Peel, and spider vein laser treatments. A new signature facial is also offered, incorporating the very best skin products from the aesthetic industry's top performing manufacturers.
The doctor has a deep passion for helping children with birth defects and works with charitable organizations to provide medical assistance and complex reconstructive surgery to underprivileged youth. He is on the Board of Directors for Mending Kids and the Gondobay Manga Foundation and works closely with Operation Smile. He has been featured as a "Top Doctor" in the US News and World Report, Los Angeles Magazine, and Pasadena Magazine. Dr. Panossian has also worked on several television shows, including The Doctors, Grey's Anatomy, and Nip/Tuck as a medical consultant. For the past ten years, he has been nominated as a "Super Doctor" by his colleagues.
Dr. Panossian belongs to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Association of Plastic Surgeons. He is also a member of the American College of Surgeons and the American Society of Reconstructive Microsurgery.
Andre Panossian MD Plastic Surgery's new Pasadena office is located at 39 Congress St #402, Pasadena, CA 91105. For more information, contact 800-958-3778 or visit https://drpanossian.com/.

Hailed as an "exceptional mentor," "highly-accomplished and adaptable educator," and an "authority on implementing flipped classrooms methodology," Southern Illinois University Edwardsville's Chaya Gopalan, PhD, has been named the American Physiological Society's (APS) 2020 Arthur C. Guyton Educator of the Year.

EDWARDSVILLE, ILL. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Hailed as an "exceptional mentor," "highly-accomplished and adaptable educator," and an "authority on implementing flipped classrooms methodology," Southern Illinois University Edwardsville's Chaya Gopalan, PhD, has been named the American Physiological Society's (APS) 2020 Arthur C. Guyton Educator of the Year.
Gopalan is an associate professor in both the SIUE School of Education, Health and Human Behavior's (SEHHB) Department of Applied Health and the School of Nursing's (SON) Department of Primary Care and Health Systems. She is highly-regarded nationally for her commitment to implementing a range of teaching modalities to connect with diverse learners.
The distinguished Arthur C. Guyton Educator of the Year Award honors her for excellence in classroom teaching at the undergraduate, graduate and professional levels, and for her strong commitment to the improvement of physiology.
"I was totally shocked and simply could not believe that I was receiving this prestigious award," Gopalan said. "I owe my success to the American Physiological Society. I have been a member of the society for over 20 years, and have received constant encouragement, guidance and opportunities to grow and develop."
Gopalan's long-time involvement with the APS has included service on the advisory group of physiology educators, Fellowship Committee, Institution of Teaching and Learning and Steering Committees, as well as a Nomination Committee Chair, Symposium Chair and more.
"I have witnessed firsthand her tremendous passion and energy for physiology education," noted APS colleague Jonathan Kibble, PhD, professor of physiology and assistant dean for students at the University of Central Florida's Health Sciences Campus at Lake Nona College of Medicine, in his letter of recommendation. "She has become an authority on implementing flipped classroom methodology, and has published several manuscripts on the topic, as well as given several invited workshops and podium presentations."
"An important, and sometimes overlooked, characteristic of impactful educators is the time they devote to mentorship of others," he added. "Chaya is an exceptional mentor, which I have witnessed directly in the way she interacts with colleagues and junior members of the physiology education community."
In her recommendation letter, former student Rim Hadgu, PharmD, described Gopalan as the "epitome of excellence." She credited Gopalan for inspiring her to become a confident leader and persistently pursue her goals.
"Not only is Dr. Gopalan passionate about teaching, but she also cares deeply about her students beyond the classroom," wrote Hadgu, an assistant professor of pharmacy practice at the Midwestern University College of Pharmacy-Glendale. "She wants her students to understand her course material, and she also notices when they are struggling. She gives invaluable advice and encourages her students to find how they learn best. She has taught me to be persistent, and to pursue my goals regardless of the outcome."
Gopalan is principal investigator of a National Science Foundation-funded project to advanced flipped teaching in STEM education, and the APS 2018 Teaching Career Enhancement Award winner. In 2019, she was recognized with a Phenomenal Woman Award from the SIUE Office of Institutional Diversity and Inclusion.
Gopalan earned her doctorate in neuroendocrine physiology from the University of Glasgow. At SIUE, she currently teaches Advanced Human Physiology and Advanced Human Pathophysiology courses in the SON's Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist and Family Nurse Practitioner doctoral programs. She also teaches the Biology of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases course to exercise science majors in the SEHHB.
Southern Illinois University Edwardsville provides students with a high quality, affordable education that prepares them for successful careers and lives of purpose to shape a changing world. Built on the foundation of a broad-based liberal education, and enhanced by hands-on research and real-world experiences, the academic preparation SIUE students receive equips them to thrive in the global marketplace and make our communities better places to live. Situated on 2,660 acres of beautiful woodland atop the bluffs overlooking the natural beauty of the Mississippi River's rich bottomland and only a short drive from downtown St. Louis, the SIUE campus is home to a diverse student body of more than 13,000.

Investigational New Drug (IND) Using RoosterBio's CliniControl Products Enters the Clinic by RoosterBio's Pharmaceutical Customer

FREDERICK, MD. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
RoosterBio Inc., a leading supplier of human mesenchymal stem/stromal cell (hMSC) working cell banks and hMSC bioprocess systems, announces today a significant milestone in the regenerative medicine field with the dosing of the first patient using its innovative cellular starting materials. The patient has been treated by RoosterBio's pharmaceutical customer with an Investigational New Drug (IND) that was manufactured using RoosterBio's CliniControl cell and media systems. This marks the first demonstration of standardized off-the-shelf cellular starting and ancillary raw materials and associated scalable biomanufacturing applied to regenerative medicine therapeutic products.
"The first-in-human clinical trial of our customer's novel therapeutic manufactured using our CliniControl products is an important milestone and a key step to tangibly demonstrate RoosterBio's commitment to helping our customers rapidly develop safe and effective regenerative medicine products," said Margot Connor, CEO of RoosterBio. "More importantly, this platform advancement will fuel the rapid commercialization of scalable regenerative cures."
The use of RoosterBio's CliniControl products is supported by Type II Master Files (MF) which were submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2017 for bioprocessing media and 2018 for hMSC banked vials. As a result, the FDA has on-file the proprietary chemistry, manufacturing and controls (CMC) information for RoosterBio's starting cell banks and bioprocess media systems for simple referencing by its therapeutic sponsors.
RoosterBio now has five customers who have been granted authorization to cross reference both of its MFs as part of their customers' clinical development. RoosterBio has radically simplified product development and shortened product development timelines by providing access to standardized, off-the-shelf, ancillary and cellular starting materials manufactured under current good manufacturing (cGMP) conditions for further manufacturing and regulatory compliancy. RoosterBio's focus on industrializing the regenerative medicine supply chain ushers in a new era of productivity to the field.
Connor added, "We are excited to see RoosterBio's vision of solving regenerative medicine product and process development challenges with innovative biomanufacturing strategies, continue to drive novel therapeutic approaches forward."
About CliniControl Products 
CliniControl cells and media are the first and only off-the-shelf, cGMP-produced human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (hMSCs) and bioprocess media systems with accompanying Type II Master Files on record with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). CliniControl products radically simplify the process of IND filing and clinical translation for Regenerative Medicine companies that utilize hMSCs within their manufacturing process.
About RoosterBio, Inc. 
RoosterBio, Inc. is a privately held cell manufacturing platform technology company focused on accelerating the development of a sustainable regenerative medicine industry, one customer at a time. RoosterBio's products are high volume, affordable, and well-characterized adult human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (hMSCs) paired with highly engineered media systems.

Ella Paradis surveyed 1,346 adults and asked a variety of questions, such as "What is your top sexual desire?" "Have you ever cheated on a partner?" and "Do you prefer protected or unprotected sex?"

MIAMI (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Ella Paradis, leading online retailer of sexual health & wellness products, explored the top sexual desires & habits of its customers. The study included participants that identified as single or in a relationship. 1,346 users were surveyed and asked a variety of questions, such as "what is your top sexual desire?", "have you ever cheated on a partner?", and "do you prefer protected or unprotected sex?"
"By asking these types of questions it provides us insight into how we can better serve our customers. Furthermore, by sharing this information with the public it helps others feel less insecure about their desires and fetishes, as most people will realize they may not be so different from everyone else," explained CEO of Ella Paradis, Tino Dietrich.
From this survey, it was revealed the top sexual desire of adults is a threesome, with the majority (28%) picking this option. Second was sex in public with 18.2% of users picking this option. The least chosen sexual desire? Sex with a boss or superior – only 2.6% of users chose this option despite a plethora of boss/secretary pornographic videos distributed across the web.
With the increase in dating apps and social media platforms it feels like more and more partners are cheating on their significant others. However, according to this survey, when asked the question "have you ever cheated on a partner?" only 29.8% of users admitted that yes, they had cheated on a partner. If respondents were in fact telling the truth, then that means 70.2% of the population has remained faithful in their relationships – which would certainly be a breath of fresh air!
The next question asked if the user was single or in a relationship. If they answered single, a logic jump occurred to have them skip the next set of questions. 82.6% responded they were in a relationship and were directed to the next set of questions.
According to this study, of the 82.6% of respondents in a relationship, 50.3% noted they masturbate once a week and 26.2% noted they masturbate every day. Additionally, when those in a relationship were asked who they fantasize about during masturbation, a whopping 50.7% noted they fantasize about their partner – which may correlate with the 70.2% who noted they had never cheated on a partner. 40.8% responded that they watch porn instead of mentally fantasizing, and a naughty 8.1% noted they fantasize about their crush. This then begs the question, does thinking of your partner during masturbation make you less likely to cheat on them?
All users were asked the two final questions in the survey regardless of whether they are in a relationship or not. First was "how often do you have sex?" 59.2% noted once a week, 15.3% noted less than once a month, 12.7% noted every day, and 12.4% noted once a month.
Finally, respondents were asked "do you prefer protected or unprotected sex? And a whopping 66.2% noted unprotected. 17.6% noted no preference, while 16.2% noted "no glove, no love." According to a CDC report in October 2019, cases of syphilis, Gonorrhea and Chlamydia are on the rise again, which could be related to the large preference of adults preferring unprotected sex.
Founded in 2015, Ella Paradis is on a mission to bring everyone pleasure with premium products and quality service. They hope to empower adults by providing optimal solutions, resources and content to improve their quality of life through informed decisions on sexual health and wellness. They are working to provide an environment where everyone feels comfortable embracing their sexuality without feeling shamed or degraded. They are committed to making the experience of pleasure affordable and accessible for everyone, while simultaneously breaking stigmas surrounding sexuality.

If respondents were in fact telling the truth, then that means 70.2% of the population has remained faithful in their relationships – which would certainly be a breath of fresh air!

etherFAX's Secure Document Delivery Solutions Improve Workflow Automation and Accelerate Interoperability within Healthcare

HOLMDEL, N.J. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
etherFAX today announced that it will exhibit its patented hybrid-cloud fax technology at the HIMSS Global Health Conference and Exhibition on March 9-13, 2020 in Orlando. This year at HIMSS, etherFAX will showcase DirectFax via the etherFAX Secure Exchange Network (SEN), integrations with Slack, Teams, and mobile, the etherFAX API, and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities with GLYNT.AI. Each of these secure document delivery solutions easily integrate with existing IT infrastructure and electronic medical record (EMR) applications and devices.

Clinical Data Normalization and Enrichment Leader to Demonstrate its Support of the Interoperability Standard at the Largest Health IT Conference.

FARMINGTON, CONN. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Diameter Health, developer of the leading platform for clinical data normalization and enhancement, today announced it will demonstrate its new product capabilities with HL7's Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) at the 2020 Healthcare Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Annual Conference and Exhibitionin booth #7461. Additionally, Diameter Health President and Chief Strategy Officer John D'Amore will present a conference session on state and national clinical data quality and usability initiatives with Health Current, Arizona's statewide health information exchange (HIE).
Diameter Health added FHIR support to its data normalization and enrichment engine in response to increasing demand from its payer and HIE customers. Now Diameter Health's technology can ingest clinical data from any certified EHR and output FHIR-conformant data in addition to many other formats. As a result, Diameter Health customers can share FHIR data formats with payers, providers and patients even if the source data systems do not support FHIR.
"The FHIR standard represents great progress for healthcare in terms of accelerating the pace and scale of data exchange," said Eric Rosow, CEO of Diameter Health. "FHIR will also increase the need for clean, semantically interoperable data. We're excited to show our customers and partners how our technology's new FHIR capabilities will help facilitate the exchange of high-quality, usable clinical information across stakeholders."
While support of FHIR across the healthcare ecosystem is likely to increase the volume and flow of clinical data, the standard does nothing to enable semantic interoperability, or the exchange of data with meaning. Closing this gap requires solutions like Diameter Health that create clean clinical data and enable actionable clinical insight. Diameter Health will demonstrate its support of FHIR at HIMSS with a national payer organization at the Da Vinci Project (booth #7972), and D'Amore will present the new functionality in the Da Vinci Project main theater (booth #8060) on Wednesday, March 11, 2020 at 2:45 p.m. ET.
Additionally, D'Amore will co-present an educational session titled, "How to Tame Your "Data Dragon": A Statewide Approach," with Keith Parker, chief information officer at Health Current, a Diameter Health customer. D'Amore and Parker will discuss challenges associated with the variability in source data quality, and how Health Current spearheaded a multi-stakeholder approach to enable the flow of more complete, interoperable patient information. The session will take place on Wednesday, March 11 at 10:00 a.m. ET in Orlando - Orange County Convention Center, W308A.
Diameter Health will also exhibit at HIMSS20 and attendees will have the opportunity to see live demos of the company's FHIR product updates and speak with company executives about clinical data exchange and interoperability. To learn more about Diameter Health, stop by booth #7461 at HIMSS20 from March 9 to 13 in Orlando. Media interested in scheduling a meeting with one of Diameter Health's executives can contact Lindsey Honig at lhonig@ariamarketing.com.
About Diameter Health 
Diameter Health enables organizations to better leverage clinical data through the normalization, cleansing, deduplication and enrichment of data from EHRs and other clinical data source systems. By creating a single, unified source of longitudinal structured patient information, Diameter Health helps organizations that depend on multi-source data streams (such as health plans, Health Information Exchanges (HIEs), and health systems) with quality reporting, risk adjustment, care coordination and population health initiatives. Diameter Health is the first organization to earn both eMeasure Certification from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) and Health IT Certification from the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) .

Endometriosis, a common condition that can impact a woman's ability to conceive, affects an estimated one in 10 women of reproductive age. The good news: a personalized infertility treatment plan will improve chances of conception if endometriosis is present.

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
To help shine a light on endometriosis, a condition often characterized as confusing and enigmatic—the month of March is dedicated to raising awareness, educating the public, and increasing access to endometriosis resources to help women make better healthcare decisions. Acknowledging and assisting with this effort, Shady Grove Fertility (SGF), a national leader in infertility and IVF, provides free resources for their patients and the community about how to overcome this diagnosis for women who are trying to conceive.
To help support those affected by endometriosis, Dr. Sunita Kulshrestha of SGF's Waldorf, MD, office will host a virtual Endometriosis webinar on Thursday, March 26.
"While having endometriosis does not necessarily mean that one will experience infertility, those afflicted with the condition are at a higher risk of developing infertility," says Dr. Kulshrestha. "For women with known or suspected endometriosis, especially those with what is called stage 3 or 4 endometriosis (meaning significant lesions or adhesions that can cause anatomic distortion), we recommend a fertility evaluation sooner rather than later."
Endometriosis is a common condition in which cells that ordinarily line the uterine cavity reside in the pelvis leading to cyclic pelvic pain, inflammation, and sometimes scarring in and around the fallopian tubes. It is one of the leading causes of female infertility.
"Most patients with endometriosis will have very painful periods. Sometimes those painful periods can be associated with back pain, or rectal pain, and sometimes patients will have pain with intercourse as well," adds Dr. Kulshrestha. "Endometriosis can be suspected through both clinical symptoms and some non-invasive imaging. The only way to confirm the diagnosis however is through a surgical evaluation of the pelvis."
In addition to the free webinar in March, SGF offers a complimentary Getting Pregnant with Endometriosis eBook to inform and educate, covering topics such as common symptoms, how endometriosis is diagnosed, the impact the condition has on fertility, treatment options, and the success rates associated with fertility treatment. Patient stories from couples who have overcome infertility are also included. While endometriosis treatment approaches fall on a range of simple to complex, the eBook covers the topic from the patient's point of view—with guidance dependent on symptoms and whether the woman is trying to conceive or not.
Advocacy is an important aspect of Endometriosis Awareness Month. Whether it's by women sharing their individual fertility story or supporting others struggling with endometriosis, this month provides a platform to join the conversation. Become a part of SGF's active community on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to empower and uplift other women struggling with endometriosis.
"It's important to understand your diagnosis as it relates to your fertility, and to be proactive if you are trying to conceive. By seeing a fertility specialist, you can best understand your endometriosis management options and align them with your family building goals," says Dr. Kulshrestha.
To learn more about common causes to infertility such as endometriosis, SGF physicians host over 150 complimentary patient education events—in person and virtual—each year. To learn more, visit SGF's calendar of events. To schedule an appointment with an SGF physician at one of 28 locations call the SGF New Patient Center at 888-761-1967.
About Shady Grove Fertility (SGF) 
SGF is a leading fertility and IVF center of excellence with more than 85,000 babies born and counting. With 38 locations throughout FL, GA, MD, NY, PA, VA, D.C., and Santiago, Chile, we offer patients individualized care, accept most insurance plans, and make treatment affordable through innovative financial options, including treatment guarantees. More physicians refer their patients to SGF than any other center. Call 1-888-761-1967 or visit ShadyGroveFertility.com.

VisiVite Blue Light Basher Formula uses both published science and natural plant biology to increase the retina's healthy pigmentation and improve the eye's management of high energy blue light.

HUNTINGTON, N.Y. (PRWEB) MARCH 04, 2020
Vitamin Science, Inc, a manufacturer of premium quality natural eye supplements, today announced the release of a unique, multi-dimensional nutraceutical formula for ocular blue light protection.
VisiVite Blue Light Basher Formula uses both published science and natural plant biology to increase the retina's healthy pigmentation and improve the eye's management of high energy blue light.
In creating an eye vitamin formula that targets blue light protection, President and CEO, Dr. Paul Krawitz stated, "High energy blue light is everywhere – cell phones, TV's LED lights and sunlight itself. While no studies thus far show that blue light causes macular degeneration, studies in the laboratory show that blue light can cause cellular damage, either directly to retinal cells or to the supporting retinal pigment epithelial cells directly below the retina."
Sunlight contains much blue light, but because it contains a mixture of the complete spectrum of visible colors, we don't perceive the light as being blue. LED lights, televisions and computers, on the other hand, emit more blue light than traditional light sources. Blue light can stimulate your biological circadian clock, keeping you awake, disrupting sleep, or having adverse effects on your circadian rhythm
High energy blue light is visible and directly next to ultraviolet on the light spectrum. In other words, it's the first high-energy light in the light spectrum that we are able to see, and it's only a few wavelengths away from ultraviolet light. Blue light is of concern because it has more energy per photon of light than other colors in the visible spectrum. Blue light, at high enough doses, is therefore more likely to cause damage when absorbed by various cells in our body.
Fortunately, the plant world, exposed to all-day light from the sun, has already developed mechanisms for protecting itself against high energy light, including Ultraviolet A, B and C, as well as blue light. And the answer lies in the antioxidant properties of its colorful pigments.
These pigments not only help to absorb light and convert it to food and energy that the plant can use, but because there is in many cases an excess of light energy required for growth, the pigment also has the ability to dissipate the high energy light that can activate unstable forms of oxygen, which cause damage from "oxidation."
VisiVite Blue Light Basher includes these critical symbiotic ingredients: 

Lutein and Zeaxanthin - The yellow-orange color of carotenoids have been shown to build healthy macular pigment optical density (MPOD) which then selectively absorbs the shorter wavelengths of the visible spectrum from 400–500 nm

Lycopene – An efficient singlet oxygen quencher, with photoprotective effects

Astaxanthin – Certain organisms secrete this protective red-colored xanthophyll carotenoid in response to intense light.

Betanin from Red Beet Root Extract – A strong antioxidant that preferentially absorbs light in the yellow, green, ultraviolet and blue wavelength spectrum.

Curcumin from Turmeric - Supports blue light damage is presumed to cause inflammation through oxidative stress.

Chlorophyll - In addition to its important function in photosynthesis, chlorophyll also performs the critically important activity of dissipating the sun's energy so that intense light and oxidative damage do not burn and kill the leaves.

Bilberry 50 mg – Laboratory studies of cells and tissue suggest bilberry may temper cell damage in response to blue light and other high energy light wavelengths.

Zinc 10 mg - Studies now support zinc's role in protecting the eyes from strong light exposure.

VisiVite Blue Light Basher is free of sugar, artificial colors, synthetic fillers, gluten, soy and GMO. It is supplied as a one-month bottle of 30 vegetarian capsules.
VisiVite Blue Light Basher is available for retail sale on VisiVite.com and Amazon.com. Applications for wholesale accounts can be made at calling 1-800-427-7660 Ext 2 or online at https://wholesale.visivite.com/accounts/sign_up.

Visivite Blue Light Basher requires one vegetarian capsule daily.

"Studies in the laboratory show that blue light can cause cellular damage, either directly to retinal cells or to the supporting retinal pigment epithelial cells directly below the retina."

The pilot studied 74 participants with type 2 diabetes and a baseline HbA1c ≥ 7%. Diabetes is defined by an HbA1c value of 6.5% or higher. In addition, study participants had a mean age of 55.2 years, baseline BMI of 34.7 kg/m2, 10.6 years since diagnosis of type 2 diabetes and 72% were female.
Here are the details of the upcoming poster presentation:
Poster Title: A Software Application Delivering Behavioral Therapy Improved Glycemic Control in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes 
Poster Board #: SAT-LB120 
Date & Time: Saturday, March 28, 2020, 1:00 - 3:00 PM
A study abstract of preliminary results has been included in the conference guide, and will be published in the Journal of the Endocrine Society and on the Better Therapeutics website later this month. Highlights of the pilot study include: 

Mean reduction in fasting blood glucose of 21.9 mg/dL (approximately -1.0% HbA1c) over an average of 73 days between baseline and ending values.

Larger improvements in fasting blood glucose are seen in participants with higher use of the behavioral therapy. An improvement of -32.0 mg/dL was observed in the highest tertile of use compared to -14.3 mg/dL in the lowest tertile.

Participants used the digital therapeutic 4.4 days a week on average, and spent an average of 6 minutes during each use.

Next, the company will conduct an open-label, multi-site, randomized, controlled, parallel-group trial of its digital therapeutic for treating type 2 diabetes and submit the results as the basis of its premarket submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
About Better Therapeutics 
Better is developing prescription digital therapeutics (PDTs) for the treatment of diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic conditions. Today, drugs are used to treat the effects of these diseases while leaving the behaviors that cause them in place. Better's PDTs treat and often reverse disease by changing behaviors using nutritional CBT, a novel form of digitally-delivered behavioral therapy. Better's PDTs are clinically-validated, FDA-regulated software applications intended to be prescribed and reimbursed like traditional prescription medicines.

"We are encouraged to see such a strong efficacy signal in a diverse group of patients with long-standing diabetes." Dr. Mark Berman, Chief Medical Officer

Global Access to Cancer Care Foundation is partnering with the Mayo Clinic and Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) to sponsor a 5K charity walk in Kumasi, Ghana to provide access for cervical cancer detection.

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
Global Access to Cancer Care Foundation (GACCF) http://www.globalaccf.org, the leading global cancer care organization providing oncology education programs in low and middle-income countries (LMICs), announced today that it is partnering with the Mayo Clinic and Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) to sponsor a 5K charity walk in Kumasi, Ghana to provide access for cervical cancer detection.
The free event called, Steps for Hope, Walk to cure Cervical Cancer, will take place on March 21 in Kumasi, Ghana. The walk will start at the Ashanti Regional Police Headquarters in Kumasi at 8 a.m. GMT and end at the Kumasi Technical Institute.
It is estimated that more than 1,000 women will participate in the walk and as part of the event will receive educational material about the need for cancer screening, early detection, and intervention. The day's activity will also include free cervical cancer examinations by GACCF medical professionals as well as enjoy entertainment including food, dancing, and music.
GACCF is also teaming up with Global Oncology, a volunteer community of physicians, scientists, public health experts and other professionals who treat cancer patients to hand out 1,000 comic books designed to educate West African populations about cervical cancer and the HPV vaccine.
To make a donation visit: http://www.globalaccf.org/steps-for-hope    
"GACCF is dedicated to helping underserved communities in LMICs detect cancer before it's too late," said Tonya Steiner, Executive Director of Global Access to Cancer Care Foundation. "Most patients are diagnosed with advanced cancer due to poor public awareness. That is why we are partnering with academic centers, government agencies and medical institutions like the Mayo Clinic to host cancer awareness days with free cancer screening. Cervical cancer screening greatly reduces morbidity and mortality; however in Ghana this type of preventative care is virtually nonexistent. We are excited to walk together to fight against cancer."
According to the World Health Organization, every two minutes a woman dies of cervical cancer, yet the disease is one of the most preventable and treatable forms of cancer. It is estimated that cervical cancer will kill 1,500 Ghanaian women this year alone due to the lack of access to screening and health professionals who can detect the disease early.
"A cancer diagnosis is devastating wherever in the world it is delivered – but in countries like Ghana, or other regions with limited resources, most patients are diagnosed with advanced cancer and do not have the possibility of cure," said Kenneth W. Merrell, M.D., Mayo Clinic
"Currently there are five functional radiation machines in a country of more than 30 million. That is why the GACCF is committed to providing the technology and training to deliver safe and effective radiation treatment and influence the public to seek out earlier detection of cancer so they can have a better chance of survival."
Cancer kills more people in low and middle-income countries than HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria combined. Eighty percent of global cancer deaths occur in LMICs but only five percent of total global spending on cancer care is expended in these regions.
"The challenge facing cancer management and treatment in West African countries is the lack of access to detect the disease early," said Mr. Osei Acheamfour, lead medical physicist at Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital. "Seventy percent of cases we see are in very advanced stages. The collaboration with GACCF and the Mayo Clinic helps us to improve our professional skills of our staff to enhance quality healthcare delivery for our patients."
GACCF is dedicated to advancing cancer care in developing countries to address the scarcity of cancer care due to outdated equipment and simplified techniques. GAACF organizes networks of cancer care professionals (doctors, nurses, medical physicists, dosimetrists, and radio therapy technicians) who implement and oversee workshops and training events in the discipline of radiation oncology and related high-level physics for the world's neediest patients.
To learn more on how to support the GACCF and its work in Ghana visit: http://www.globalaccf.org.
About Global Access to Cancer Care Foundation: 
The Global Access to Cancer Care Foundation (GACCF) offers training, technology, access, and hope; specifically for low and middle-income countries (LMICs) in South America, Africa, South and East Asia. The Foundation's cancer care professionals help to implement and oversee training courses and workshops in collaboration with local partners such as universities, hospitals or governmental institutions that enhance cancer treatment through radiotherapy treatment. These regional programs aim to overcome the lack of trained professionals who treat cancer patients in the near term. By empowering local faculty to deliver training, the GACCF education programs encourage self-reliance and sustainability. To support the success of these programs, the GACCF provides project management, financial support, and professional teams from within and outside the region.

For patients suffering from lymphedema symptoms, surgical treatment options provided at PRMA Plastic Surgery could provide life changing relief.

SAN ANTONIO (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
PRMA Plastic Surgery continues to expand on their mission of rebuilding lives after breast cancer by offering patients today's most advanced surgical treatment options for lymphedema.
For patients who have undergone breast cancer surgery and/or radiation treatment, upper extremity lymphedema is a possible complication that occurs in about 1 in every 5 breast cancer patients. Symptoms of lymphedema can be debilitating and can include: 

Swelling in arms, hands, fingers, shoulders or chest

A feeling of heaviness or tightness

Restricted range of motion

Aching or pain

Decreased flexibility in the hand or wrist

Hardening and thickening of the skin on your arm

For many with lymphedema, therapy and compression garments are used to help manage the symptoms but may not be enough. Now, two surgical lymphedema treatment procedures are offered at PRMA providing patients hope for better quality of life—lymphatic-to-vascular anastomosis ("LVA" hook-up) and vascularized lymph node transfer. Both procedures have been shown to significantly improve or even eliminate the symptoms associate with lymphedema.
Diagnosed with lymphedema in August of 2018, Sonya became "very discourage" after being told by her lymphedema therapist that therapy was her only option to help reduce her symptoms. She began searching on the internet for a better solution when she came across a live video streaming on Facebook with Dr. Ramon Garza from PRMA. That is where she learned about her surgical treatment options.
"I had the LVA procedure," shares Sonya. "The surgery was easy and painless. I now no longer feel pulling or tightness in my arm and the swelling has definitely subsided. The surgery has given me a new respect of how amazing the body is and how amazing Dr. Garza is at what he does. He has given me the ability to not have to wear a compression sleeve every day and not have to deal with the swelling."
"Providing a sense of restored wholeness for my patients following a breast cancer diagnosis is the best part about my job," shares PRMA plastic surgeon Dr. Ramon Garza. "At PRMA, we strive to always provide our patients the best care. Whether that be through breast reconstruction (including today's advanced, natural implant-alternative options), restoring breast sensation following a mastectomy or through surgical treatment for lymphedema."
For more information on the surgical treatment options for lymphedema, contact PRMA Plastic Surgery at 800.692.5565.
About PRMA 
PRMA Plastic Surgery in San Antonio, Texas, specializes in state-of-the-art breast reconstruction. Procedures offered include the DIEP flap, SIEA flap, thigh flaps, buttock flap, sensory nerve reconstruction, fat grafting, nipple-sparing mastectomy and lymphedema surgery. PRMA is In-Network for most US insurance plans and routinely welcomes patients from across and outside the US.

Evolution in propensity to pay modeling boosts predictability to increase payments

LIVONIA, MICH. (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
RevSpring, a leading provider of healthcare financial engagement and payment solutions, today announced Vu Predict, an advancement in propensity to pay modeling that increases predictability at more touchpoints throughout the patient payment journey to increase payments.
Unlike credit score-based models that are one-dimensional and therefore less precise in terms of predicting payment likelihood in healthcare, Vu Predict uses a broader blend of data and more dynamic modeling techniques designed to increase the precision of the insight. As a result, providers can have confidence that they are matching the best payment option to the needs of the patient at the right time.
"Most patients have good intentions when it comes to paying their healthcare bills," said April Wilson, vice president of RevSpring analytics. "But because healthcare costs are typically unpredictable for the consumer, patients often struggle to pay in full and on time. Vu Predict takes that guesswork out of healthcare billing for the provider, and for the patient."
Vu Predict achieves a higher standard of precision than other predictive models because it uses more human context, including behavioral characteristics, the stage of the patient in their healthcare journey, and more. Through iterative modeling and machine learning techniques, RevSpring uses science to create a more flexible and compassionate payment experience for the patient. That ultimately improves patient loyalty and satisfaction, and increases payments.
"With concerns over price transparency and surprise billing, it's important to start the conversation out right with each patient and make it consistent at every touchpoint," said Marty Callahan, president of healthcare at RevSpring. "We are excited about the innovation behind this new approach to predictive analytics and payment personalization, and believe it will have a tremendously positive impact on the patient experience and payment performance for our clients."
Vu Predict is one of several new product announcements RevSpring will showcase at the 2020 HIMSS Global Health Conference & Exhibition, on March 9–13, 2020 in Orlando. Healthcare providers are invited to visit booth #6479 or http://www.revspringinc.com/healthcare to learn how precise personalization impacts patients throughout their healthcare financial journey.
About RevSpring 
RevSpring leads the market in financial communications and payment solutions that inspire patients to pay. The company has built the industry's most comprehensive and impactful suite of patient engagement, OmniChannel communications and payment solutions backed by behavior analysis, propensity-to-pay scoring, contextual messaging, and user experience best practices. Using proprietary data analytics to tailor the engagement from pre-service to post-service, we improve the financial experience and outcomes for providers and their patients.

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
Drummond Group, the trusted leader in software compliance and interoperability testing, announced Vantage Consulting Group selected Drummond for the validation and certification of the Level-4 open source solution QU4RTET 3.0 in accordance to GS1 US Rx EPCIS Conformance Testing Program.
Drummond is pleased to announce that QU4RTET 3.0 has earned Drummond's EPCIS 1.2 Certification seal. Vantage can now engage with their clients for implementation of QU4RTET so that these manufacturers can then earn their GS1 EPCIS 1.2 Trustmark's for the Manufacturer Test Scenarios.
With GS1 US overseeing the program, Drummond validated QU4RTET's compliance to all seven manufacturer role-based test scenarios as defined by GS1 EPCIS 1.2 Implementation Guidelines.
Vantage is taking a leadership role in ensuring EPCIS 1.2 messages between the manufacturer and the wholesaler are following the proper format and structure to support DSCSA track and trace requirements. Vantage recognizes the following advantages in bringing QU4RTET into compliance, the first L4 Software Solution to be validated and certified by Drummond for EPCIS 1.2. 

It is essential to demonstrate compliance to the FDA's Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA)for traceability in the supply chain

Earning the Drummond EPCIS 1.2 Certification seal is the first step in demonstrating compliance to DSCSA interoperability requirements for serialization. It is very important to us as a QU4RTET integration provider to ensure our customers can implement a GS1 EPCIS 1.2 certified solution so that they can earn their GS1 Trustmark for their implementation of QU4RTET 3.0

"Drummond's rigorous yet intuitive EPCIS Conformance Portal, a web-based compliance testing service, was key to providing us with a straightforward way to demonstrate QU4RTET compliance to GS1 EPCIS 1.2 Implementation Guidelines. This provides assurance to our customers that Vantage is committed to guiding pharmaceutical manufacturers toward meeting DSCSA track and trace requirements" said George Poltorak, Vantage Consulting Group CEO.
"Drummond was the first testing service to be certified by GS1 and we are pleased to announce QU4RTET 3.0 has been conformance validated against GS1 EPCIS 1.2 Implementation Guidelines, which define how GS1 standards can be used to meet DSCSA track and trace requirements in an interoperable way" said Aaron Gomez, Drummond, Principal, Supply Chain Security business unit.
Further, Drummond is committed to the GS1 EPCIS Conformance Program and we welcome any stakeholder in the pharmaceutical supply chain impacted by FDA's DSCSA mandate to contact Drummond to learn more about this testing service and for inquires to discuss how to gain trial access and a request demonstration.

Applications are being accepted until April 16 for participation in the first of its kind investment competition for female-led cancer-focused start-up companies. To be held in Boston on May 20, the Women's Venture Competition is an initiative of the AIM-HI Accelerator Fund.

ROCKVILLE, MD. (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
The AIM-HI Accelerator Fund is organizing the first annual Women's Venture Competition on May 20 in Boston. Applications are being accepted online until April 16 from oncology start-ups with females in senior leadership positions or women leading teams planning to set up such firms in the near future. The event, to be held at the Joseph B. Martin Conference Center at Harvard Medical School, is the first of its kind to focus solely on women entrepreneurs and oncology start-ups.
AIM-HI, having already funded ten oncology start-ups when few other sources would invest in high risk, pre-clinical stage companies, is conducting the Women's Venture Competition in order to address another pressing need: resources—financial, coaching, and networking—for female entrepreneurs.
According to the Association for Women in Science, less than 15% of angel funding and only 2% of venture capital is directed to companies started or led by women. The Women's Venture Competition is a demonstration of AIM-HI's commitment to address this discrepancy.
Women's Venture Competition applications will be screened and the finalists will deliver extensive private and confidential presentations in person to a judging committee comprised of world-class cancer scientists and life sciences industry professionals, investors and entrepreneurs. Each of the final competitors will receive valuable feedback from the judging committee members during Q&A sessions, and summaries of this input and any further suggestions will afterwards be communicated by AIM-HI back to the finalists.
The final contestants will be recognized at a reception and award dinner on the evening of May 20, where the top two winners will be named and receive cash awards of $3,000 and $2,000 respectively. Upon favorable due diligence by the AIM-HI Accelerator Fund, a $300,000 investment will be made into the company deemed to have the stronger potential for cancer patient impact. Future return on this investment will go directly toward laboratory cancer research projects.
The female-led businesses and teams in the Women's Venture Competition will also be offered access to intensive accelerator boot-camp programming by one of the world's most renowned women entrepreneur accelerator and business training service providers, Springboard Enterprises.
"We believe this female-led, team oriented approach, for early stage oncology companies will create lasting impact on the pipeline for women entrepreneurship in life sciences," says AIM-HI President and CEO Sujuan Ba, Ph.D. "It's a well-known fact that the industry suffers from a lack of gender diversity. The AIM-HI Accelerator Fund's Women's Venture Competition is a platform for changing this reality by encouraging and highlighting young, dynamic female-led companies in the oncology space, and providing them with multiple forms of support critical for the startups."

About the AIM-HI Accelerator Fund
Formed in 2019, the AIM-HI Accelerator Fund is a new paradigm through venture philanthropy to fund translational research and start-up oncology companies that commercialize innovative laboratory breakthroughs into new therapies and technologies which can potentially save cancer patients' lives. It is an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, established with an initial grant from the National Foundation for Cancer Research (NFCR.org), with the vision and capacity to accelerate the translation of cancer drug discoveries by investing in pre-seed and seed-stage companies.

In September 2016, stem cell biotechnology company Asymmetrex introduced its AlphaSTEM Test technology. The AlphaSTEM Test is the first, and still only, available technology that provides the cell-specific count or dose of tissue stem cells. Other technologies that attempt to provide information about the number and quality of therapeutic tissue stem cells are unable to distinguish them from more abundant non-stem progenitor cells. Although non-stem progenitor cells can have therapeutic effects, only tissue stem cells can provide long-term cures.
Although needed in academic stem cell research, stem cell biomanufacturing, and stem cell medicine, adoption of the AlphaSTEM Test has been limited. James Sherley, M.D., Ph.D., founder and director of Asymmetrex, attributes this initial response to two main factors. "There's a lot of misinformation in the stem cell industry about the nature of tissue stem cell preparations and how counting stem cells specifically would solve many of the current problems faced by the industry and patients." To address the need for better knowledge of the properties of tissue stem cells and their preparations, this week the company launched its recently developed podcast series on "Counting Stem Cells" on the international stem cell industry networking platform RegMedNet.
Today at the 6th Annual Congress of the Perinatal Stem Cell Society in Salt Lake City, Utah, Director Sherley will address what he thinks is the second cause of slow adoption of the company's initial technology. "Our tech is an amazing advance for the stem cell industry, but it takes a lot of time to do – previously several weeks to get an answer – even though an answer available nowhere else; and it's rather expensive compared to other tests that confound the marketplace." In his talk today, Sherley says, "Now, ...everything will change."
Using its computational strength, Asymmetrex has discovered mathematical algorithms that allow simple cell count data from a few days of culture to be used to calculate the stem cell-specific count of a sample. The new foundational stem cell algorithms address the need for timely, inexpensive stem cell-specific counting. The members of the Perinatal Stem Cell Society are an ideal audience for this first public report. Transplant therapies for children with leukemias have needed a means to insure sufficient blood stem cells for many years; and tissue stem cells from the umbilical cord are currently a major focus for the development of new stem cell therapies.
Asymmetrex is now accelerating its efforts to identify investors and industry partners who market basic cell counter devices. The company plans to integrate the new algorithms with existing electronic cell counters to develop the first tissue stem cell counters for tissue stem cell research, tissue stem cell biomanufacturing, and stem cell therapies.
About Asymmetrex
Asymmetrex, LLC is a Massachusetts life sciences company with a focus on developing technologies to advance stem cell medicine. Asymmetrex's founder and director, James L. Sherley, M.D., Ph.D. is an internationally recognized expert on the unique properties of adult tissue stem cells. The company's U.S. and U.K. patent portfolio contains biotechnologies that solve the two main technical problems – production and quantification – that have stood in the way of successful commercialization of human adult tissue stem cells for regenerative medicine and drug development.

Recent nationwide mental health statistics have shown that symptoms of significant emotional distress are being detected at much younger ages than previously recorded. This earlier symptomatic presentation was noted by school districts in northern New Jersey as well. For this reason, New Alliance Academy received inquiries regarding the availability of therapeutic programs for middle school students similar to those it had developed for teenagers.
To meet the behavioral health and educational needs of younger students in the area, New Alliance Academy initiated an eighth grade pilot program in 2019. The school, which has enjoyed an excellent reputation built over eleven years since its inception, accepted seven students in the new program. Based on very favorable school district feedback and family satisfaction rates, the Academy decided to continue offering middle school education in 2020. Enrollment is ongoing and applications are currently being reviewed for the eighth grade level.

A February 27 article on YouBeauty reports on a new post-workout trend: drinking pickle juice. According to the article, a good post-workout meal or drink should have plenty of sodium, potassium, and carbohydrates to replenish what the body uses during the workout. As unusual as it sounds, pickle juice is filled with all three, and there is a little bit of scientific research to back up the claim. Prime Body Sculpting, a high-tech spa based in the Los Angeles suburb of Agoura Hills, says that, while pickle juice may possibly help prevent cramps, people exercising their hearts out to improve their image may find that pockets of fat are a great deal more difficult to eliminate than occasional post-workout pain. The salon says that it offers completely noninvasive options that can help its clients attain the look they desire without potentially raising their blood pressure or making them wake up thirsty at 3:00 a.m.
Prime Body Sculpting says that liposuction is the best-known method of removing excess fat that regular workouts may not be getting rid of. However, as a surgical operation with all its attendant risk and expense, it's a step too far for many. That's why the spa's founder, Goly, knew that Southern Californians would be thrilled to take advantage of treatments that she herself has discovered and benefitted from in Europe.
Specifically, the spa says that it's most popular cutting edge techniques include ultrasonic cavitationwhich uses ultrasonic waves that target fat cells in the body, effectively softening the cells up for eventual termination via workouts and low-calorie diets. The body contouring spa adds that this treatment is especially effective at removing stubborn and all-too-noticeable areas of fat that patients wish to reduce or eliminate but which never seem to go away. The salon notes that frequent trouble-spots include the midsection, back, hips (love handles), and thighs. Prime Body Sculpting notes that it also offers Thermalift, which makes use of radiofrequency energy to encourage the production of collagen in the skin to produce higher elasticity and a more youthful appearance.
The spa adds that, because of the noninvasive nature of these procedures, there is essentially no downtime and patients can and should quickly return to their ordinary schedule, definitely including exercise. Interested readers can learn more about Prime Body Sculpting by visiting their website at https://www.primebodysculpting.com or by calling (833) 328-9376. The center is open Monday through Saturday and welcomes clients from throughout both Los Angeles County and nearby Ventura County.

"We see a lot of new kids every year, which just hammers home the knowledge that we made the right choice for our community." - Dr. Mitzi Hines

COLUMBUS, OHIO (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
This Saturday, March 7, 2020, Hines Little Smiles will again step up to help ensure the oral health of uninsured or underinsured children from the Columbus, Ohio, area. The pediatric dental practice's fourth Biannual Community Day is expected to open at 9:00 AM and extend until 3:00 PM. Patients will be accepted in order of arrival, must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, and will receive basic dental services, including cleanings, fillings and extractions, free of charge.
Hines Little Smiles hosted their first Biannual Community Day in 2018, in response to rising dental care costs and an insurance system that was unable to provide support and care for children from low-income families. The event was met by enormous response from parents of children in the local community, and has since become a twice-yearly affair.
"Ohio has worked hard to make sure pediatric dental care is a priority," says Dr. Mitzi Hines, who opened the pediatric dental practice in 2009. "Statewide, we're meeting and beating our annual targets for reduced dental decay in children and increased access to dental care. However, at a recent board meeting for the KidSMILES Pediatric Dental Clinic I learned that children who need dental care, but cannot afford it, would fill up the Horseshoe (Ohio Stadium) 5 times over. That's over half a million children in Ohio alone who need care and aren't receiving it regularly."
Medicaid does cover some dental care for children, but this care is often insufficient, and reimbursed at levels far below the actual cost of care. "In 2018, we had to make a decision as a practice," says Dr. Hines. "We could keep trying to fight with Medicaid about coverage for biannual maintenance cleanings and other preventive children's dentistry, or put that time, energy, and budget into providing a higher level of care that is still completely free for underinsured children in our community."
Dr. Hines says the turnout at each free, walk-in community event, held twice a year, has been outstanding. "We see a lot of new kids every year, which just hammers home the knowledge that we made the right choice for our community."
The free dental services provided during the event include standard cleanings, fillings, extractions, and more. (Treatments requiring general anesthesia cannot be provided.) Children will be seen on a first come, first serve basis, and all patients up to age 18 will be accepted regardless of their ability to pay.
"At Hines Little Smiles, our focus is on the children of our community," says Dr. Hines. "During our last event, we had 38 volunteers on site for 6 hours. In those 228 total volunteer hours, we were able to serve the needs of 47 children and dispensed nearly $25,000 worth of quality dental services. We can't wait for our fourth no-charge day, and plan to continue this biannual event. It's a solution that is working for our community's kids."
While reservations are not accepted in advance, potential patients and parents can RSVP on the Facebook event page.

Aeroscena, the global leader in aromatherapy research and development, has announced the release of its newest Ascents-branded product, aromatherapy patches. These essential oil patches -- Ascents Tabs -- are a safe, effective, and easy-to-use first-line nursing intervention for relief of nausea and anxiety in healthcare environments.

CLEVELAND (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
Aeroscena LLC has debuted its newest Ascents-branded product, clinical aromatherapy patches. These essential oil patches -- Ascents Tabs -- are a safe, effective, and easy-to-use first-line nursing intervention for relief of nausea and anxiety in healthcare environments. While available to consumers, they were developed specifically for hospital use.
Ascents Tab clinical aromatherapy patches are currently available in two formulations: Calm No. 34, and Nausea Relief No. 44. Both simply peel-and-stick, and are meant to adhere directly to the skin. A proprietary occlusive barrier prevents the essential oils in the patch from making direct skin contact; however, they may also be placed on disposable hospital gowns.
Once applied to skin or gowns, the aromatherapy patches immediately begin to diffuse therapeutic scent thereby decreasing symptoms including nausea (PONV, CINV, morning sickness) or anxiety, depending on the patch's formula. The patches are designed to work for up to 8 hours while keeping the scent close enough to the patient that it is unobtrusive to others in the immediate vicinity.
Ascents Tabs: Benefits in Clinical Environments
Ascents Tabs are disposable and were designed for single-patient use. This prevents any potential contamination with viruses or bacteria from other users. Because some clinical environments still resort to the use of liquid essential oils, the transmission of viruses or bacteria is, unfortunately, possible. Ascents Tabs are a safe and sanitary way to provide symptomatic relief for patients without the risk of cross-contamination.
Ascents Tabs aromatherapy patches are also convenient. They do not need to be held, touched, or otherwise manipulated once applied. This means that even patients with mobility or dexterity challenges are able to use them without issue. And because patches cannot "spill" like a liquid oil, they pose no risk of chemical burn or becoming a slipping hazard.
Ascents Tabs: Use Cases
Ascents Tabs provide clinicians with a practical, non-pharmaceutical intervention option in hospitals and other clinical environments for the symptomatic relief of nausea and anxiety in affected patients. Ascents Tabs are especially useful in mitigating anxiety for those patients who have difficulty undergoing MRIs. "MRIs can feel quite understandably claustrophobic due to their design, and are often time-consuming, which makes anxiety a common patient reaction," says Aeroscena's founder and CEO, Mark Kohoot. "Because Ascents Tabs are non-metallic, they are safe to use in MRI machines, while helping patients feel calmer and more relaxed before, during and after these types of scans. This reduces the number of incomplete and repeat scans due to issues with patient compliance."
Besides MRIs, Ascents Tabs can be used in post-surgical units to alleviate postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), in chemotherapy infusion centers to decrease nausea (CINV) and feelings of stress or anxiety, and in obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN) practices and labor and delivery units for maternal health challenges including morning sickness and labor pain/anxiety.
There is also an emerging trend that calls for the use of essential oil patches as an aid to patient caregivers on the front lines, including nurses, technicians, and medical assistants. Ascents Tabsare a convenient stress-reduction intervention that can help clinicians stay calm during shifts, as well as recover more quickly during breaks or after their workdays come to an end due to their unobtrusive, no-mess, easy-to-use form factor.
About Aeroscena, LLC
Established in 2010, Aeroscena is the corporate research and development organization behind Ascents-brand clinical aromatherapy. Aeroscena has designed the first scientifically-recognized platform for essential oil and aromatherapy R&D for their use as medical interventions (phytoceuticals; plant-based pharmaceuticals) and in CPG products (natural, functional fragrance).
Ascents' evidence-based essential oil blends are the only aromatherapy formulas that are recommended by doctors, used by hospitals.
Aeroscena is located in the Cleveland Clinic Global Cardiovascular Innovations Center in Cleveland, OH. For more information about Ascents, visit https://www.shopascents.com. For more information about Aeroscena, visit https://www.aeroscena.com.

Autologous reconstruction – using a woman's own tissue to create a new breast – has become the "gold standard" for breast reconstruction, either immediately following mastectomy or later. "Nipple-sparing mastectomy with autologous tissue breast reconstruction delivers a soft, warm, natural breast that is often barely distinguishable from a woman's original breast," says plastic surgeon and breast specialist Dr. Constance M. Chen. "Sometimes, however, the natural look and feel of the reconstructed breast may be more apparent to others than it is to the woman herself." While pleased with the appearance of her new breasts, some women are disappointed to realize that to her reconstructed breast is numb to touch and sexual arousal.
"As breast reconstruction techniques have been developed, the emphasis until now has been on how the woman would look," says Dr. Chen. "The next frontier in reconstructive surgery is to reconnect nerves and restore sensation to the breast. New techniques show great promise and many women are now experiencing varying degrees of restored feeling."
Dr. Chen answers questions about loss and restoration of feeling in reconstructed breasts.
"Why is feeling lost after mastectomy? Can it return?"
During a mastectomy, the nerves that provide feeling to the breast and nipple are severed, causing loss of sensation in the remaining skin. Some women experience a limited return of sensation over time, dependent in part on the type of reconstruction they have. Implants form a physical barrier that prevents nerves from growing through to the skin. Autologous reconstruction, which transfers blood vessels and nerves along with fat and skin, offers the best opportunity for nerve regeneration since nerves are more likely to grow in natural tissue.
Of the four different types of nerve sensation – deep pressure, light touch, pain, and temperature – deep pressure sensation returns most quickly and temperature most slowly. But nerves grow very slowly and even when the regenerated nerves reach the skin after months or years, the quality of sensation is variable.
"How can sensation be restored?" 
Because nerve regeneration is slow and results are unpredictable, reconnecting nerves has not always been a surgical priority. But new, meticulous microsurgical techniques that use neural tubes and nerve grafts have enabled surgeons to offer each woman the best possible chance for restoration of feeling.
Two specific methods of autologous reconstruction offer the best opportunity for successfully reconnecting nerves via a procedure called neurrropahy, a microsurgical technique that attaches two nerves. In perforator flap breast reconstruction, the skin, fat, and blood vessels (the "flap") are transferred from a donor site, often the abdomen or upper inner thighs, to create the new breast. During the flap surgery, a sensory nerve that provides feeling to the lower abdominal skin can be included and transferred with the flap to the chest. Surgeons specially trained in this technique can then connect this nerve to nerves that were severed during the mastectomy. This additional surgical step has shown great promise in restoring feeling better and faster than waiting and hoping for nerves to regenerate.
"How can I ensure that I have the best possible chance to have feeling restored?" 
One of the most distressing aspects of loss of feeling is that many women were assured that their reconstructed breast would look and feel natural but weren't told that they would lose most or all of the feeling in the breast.
The importance of the return of sensation is different for every woman and should be discussed in the initial surgical consultation so she knows what to expect and has the opportunity to ensure that her surgeon is trained in the techniques that will provide the best outcome.
"What constitutes feeling 'herself' again after breast cancer is an individual matter that has both physical and emotional aspects," says Dr. Chen. "Our responsibility to each patient is to ensure that her expectations are realistic and to offer her choices that let her decide what is the best way for her to regain her confidence and preserve her sense of self."
Constance M. Chen, MD, is a board-certified plastic surgeon with special expertise in the use of innovative natural techniques to optimize medical and cosmetic outcomes for women undergoing breast reconstruction. She is Clinical Assistant Professor of Surgery (Plastic Surgery) at Weill Cornell Medical College and Clinical Assistant Professor of Surgery (Plastic Surgery) at Tulane University School of Medicine.

Since ozone has been proven to kill 99.999 percent of pathogens in the air, including SARS Coronavirus and influenzas such as H5N1, researchers anticipate that it may be an important tool in preventing the spread of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).
"Ozone has been proven to kill the SARS Coronavirus," Robert Smith, president and CEO of Quail Systems, LLC said. "This 2019 strand has a similar makeup to SARS; therefore, we anticipate that ozone may kill the new, stronger strand, COVID-19. For decades, we have seen that ozone is the safest and most cost-effective option for protecting people by killing dangerous viruses and other threats," Smith added.
Viruses are small particles made up of crystals; ozone destroys viruses by attacking the nucleic acid core, thus damaging the viral RNA. After destroying these particles, ozone dissipates and leaves breathable oxygen as its only byproduct.
COVID-19 is an enveloped virus. In past studies, 99 percent of viruses have been destroyed and showed damage to their envelope proteins after 30 seconds of exposure to ozone. This can result in the virus's failure to attach to normal, healthy cells, and the breakdown of the single-stranded RNA can lead to the destruction of the virus.
According to the World Health Organization, coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that cause illnesses ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). COVID-19 had not been previously identified in humans.
The strongest disinfectant available to the public, ozone safely has been used for decades in homes and businesses. Using ozonated water for handwashing kills bacteria and viruses on impact. Ozone is created by special generators that release it in the air for purification or infuse it into water for disinfecting surfaces. More information about ozone generators and how they work can be found at https://ozairandwater.com/. Oz products are manufactured by Tennessee Innovative Products, LLC, a sister company of Quail Systems.
Smith established Quail Systems, a Tennessee company, with a mission of providing the highest quality ozone systems, monitoring and service. With more than four decades of experience in research, development, monitoring and maintenance of ozone systems, the Quail team focuses on providing a cleaner, safer solution to kill contaminants in the food chain through the Quail Refrigerated Transport Series, Quality Food Preparation Series, and Mobile Sanitizing Series. Additional information about Quail Systems is available at https://quailsystems.com/.

The coronavirus has steadily been spreading over the past few months, claiming over 3,000 lives globally thus far. Coronavirus isn't a new disease, but the current strain of the virus (COVID-19) originally surfaced in China and has quickly spread over the past few months and is now present in a number of U.S states, including New York. The virus spreads much in the same way that the flu spreads, which means it's important for everyone to take the necessary precautions in relation to sanitization, sterilization and interpersonal contact.
So how is Rock Emergency fighting the virus? 
Rock Emergency has recently partnered with TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. through their SteraMist line of products. Routinely used to disinfect high traffic areas, SteraMist iHP technology has treated public transportation, ambulances, hotel rooms, offices, and universities to stop the spread of this deadly virus. With more than 50 international customers and partners ranging from countries in Asia, Europe, and the Mideast using hundreds of SteraMist units, many of which have been deployed to stop the spread of COVID-19.
SteraMist is an EPA registered sole active ingredient Hydrogen Peroxide based product line that uses Binary Ionization Technology (BIT). The SteraMist brand of products is licensed and sold by TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc., a global bacteria decontamination and infectious disease control company.
"The 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), officially named as COVID-19 by the WHO, has spread to 83 more countries apart from China alarming public health authorities across the world. A total of 96,405 (including 80,409 in Mainland China, 105 in Hong Kong, and ten in Macau) confirmed cases of novel coronavirus infection including 3,307 deaths (including 3,014 in China, 107 in Italy, 107 in Iran, 35 in South Korea, 12 in Japan, 11 in the US, four in France, two each in Australia and Spain, and one each in the Philippines, Switzerland, San Marino, Thailand, and Taiwan) have been reported across the world as of 04 March 2020."

Anyone who has cut a dado or groove at a router table knows that it's a messy job: As you push the workpiece into the bit, a jet of dust shoots out the front of the cut, off the table and into the air, creating a mess — and a breathing hazard.
Rockler has an award-winning answer to this problem: the Dust Right Router Table Dado Dust Chute (https://www.rockler.com/dust-right-router-table-dado-dust-chute). It mounts to the outfeed end of the router table, in line with the bit, and connects to a shop vacuum or dust collector to capture that stream of dust with a combination of suction and a height-adjustable barrier of bristles. View the Dust Right Router Table Dado Dust Chute in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smMbTyozH8k&feature=emb_logo.
"The Dust Right Dado Dust Chute is unlike any other product on the market, and you really need to see it in action to fully appreciate how well it works," said Steve Krohmer, Rockler's vice president of product development. "It catches almost all of the dust coming out of the dado, which means there's less dust on the floor and in the air."
Already recognized by one industry publication as one of the most innovative tools for 2020, the patent-pending Dado Dust Chute was designed for Rockler router tables but also can mount to the underside of other tables that have at least a 3" overhang on the outfeed end. At the top, it has a bracket with bristles that can be raised or lowered to stop the jet of debris from the bit and to dislodge any dust left on the underside of the workpiece or in the groove. It also has a port with a 2-1/4" inside diameter and 2-1/2" outside diameter that connects to standard 2-1/2" dust hose, as well as to a variety of other fittings. A built-in blast gate allows users to cut off suction at the table, and the Dado Dust Chute extends far enough under the table that it even captures dust falling into the fence-mounting slots.
The Dust Right Router Table Dado Dust Chute (57495) is priced at $24.99 and can be purchased exclusively online at http://www.rockler.com or at Rockler Woodworking and Hardware stores nationwide, as well as through the Rockler catalog.

Dr. Benjamin G. Swartout, a highly regarded facial cosmetic and reconstructive surgeon in Beverly Hills, has been recognized in the 2020 Southern California Super Doctors List, an award given to the area's top doctors in consumer-oriented medical specialties. The list of distinguished doctors was published last month in Super Doctors Magazine, which is distributed with the Los Angeles Times.
Dr. Swartout's selection was based on a nomination process, a Blue Ribbon Panel review, his professional achievements and independent research by MSP Communications. The list represents about 5% of all doctors in the area. It is the 13th year that the Super Doctors list has been published in Southern California and it is the third year that the recipients of the award will appear in Southern California Super Doctors Magazine.
Nationwide, Super Doctors lists in various regions showcase the best in consumer medicine. The Super Doctors represent a highly select and diverse group of doctors who demonstrate outstanding skill and attention to exceptional patient care. The award encompasses all consumer-oriented medical specialties, including oral surgeons in select markets.
The selection process includes a survey of doctors in order to create a pool of peer-recommended candidates. Each year, doctors are invited to nominate colleagues they know to be exceptional in their specialty. Those invited to nominate colleagues are asked which doctor they would choose if they needed medical care in a given specialty. Safeguards are put into place to ensure doctors do not self-nominate.
Once the peer survey is complete, research is conducted to further contribute to the pool of candidates. Medical databases, online sources, and publications are searched for doctors who have 'Star Search Credentials,' or certain credentials, honors and professional achievements which help distinguish doctors from their colleagues. This process ensures that doctors in less visible or in extremely specialized areas of treatment have a fair chance at recognition.
Candidates are then evaluated on 10 factors, including years of experience, hospital appointments, fellowships, professional activities, leadership positions, academic achievements, board certifications, publications, and awards.
Once the candidates have been evaluated based on these factors, they are grouped into specialties and reviewed by doctors who have achieved the highest scores from the nomination and evaluation steps. These doctors make up a "Blue Ribbon panel." Each of these panelists reviews and evaluates the nominees in their own area of practice.
Finally, the points are totaled from the nominations, research and Blue Ribbon panel review. The doctors who receive the highest scores are added to the Super Doctors list. This list makes up about 5% of the doctors in any given region. Dr. Swartout is honored to be named as one of Southern California's Super Doctors this year.
Dr. Benjamin Swartout is a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon specializing in Otolaryngology, or head and neck surgery. He is a member of the American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, the American Academy of Otolaryngology, and the American Rhinologic Society. He has contributed to the development of rhinoplasty techniques to assist patients with their desired nasal shape and improved nasal breathing. He offers a wide range of cosmetic and reconstructive procedures at his LA practice.

Belle Meade Family Dentistry offers experienced cosmetic dentistry services, including timely porcelain veneers in Nashville, TN. Porcelain veneers can correct a variety of smile imperfections and are both minimally invasive and quick to perform while also offering drastic results.

NASHVILLE, TN (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
Dentists Drs. James Pace Sr., Temp Sullivan, and James Pace Jr. of Belle Meade Family Dentistry are offering patients experienced and beautiful cosmetic dentistry through porcelain veneers in Nashville, TN. Porcelain veneers are a simple and effective solution for improving the look of teeth without having to undergo extensive or expensive surgery. The practice's commitment to cosmetic dentistry, along with the in-office lab and master ceramist, makes Belle Meade Family Dentistry a leader in porcelain veneers.
When teeth are slightly crooked, misshapen, stained, cracked or have small gaps between them, the overall smile can be improved with porcelain veneers. Instead of having to undergo intense dental treatments to correct these imperfections, patients can choose veneers and receive one treatment that can significantly improve the look of their smile. Porcelain veneers are essentially masks that cover imperfections by being bonded to the front of target teeth. The procedure can often be completed in just two appointments and gives instant results.
One of the biggest benefits of choosing porcelain veneers as a form of cosmetic dentistry is that the treatment does not have a negative effect on a person's quality of life. Since the treatment is so quick and painless, patients are able to continue their normal routines without a healing period. This means a patient's diet can stay the same, or in some cases, may even improve because the veneers can improve a patient's bite. Porcelain veneers are predominantly a cosmetic dentistry solution and are not an instant fix to all oral problems. If severe misalignment or tooth damage exists, the dentists at Belle Meade Family Dentistry can provide advanced dental procedures to correct these concerns before porcelain veneers are applied.
Belle Meade Family Dentistry is a leader in the Nashville area for porcelain veneers thanks to the practice's investment in an in-house lab and master ceramist. Featuring both a lab and ceramist in-house allows the dentists to provide results that better match the patient's expectations and goals. In many cases, this can also significantly reduce treatment time, requiring less time in between prep and placement of the porcelain veneers. Additionally, any minor changes a patient may want to make to any of the porcelain veneers can often be performed quickly.
Patients who are interested in cosmetic dentistry and porcelain veneers in Nashville, TN are invited to contact the practice to schedule a consultation. Appointments can be made by calling 615-298-2030 or visiting http://www.bellemeadedental.com.

Those with a full mouth of missing or failing teeth can receive same-day dental implants in Ocala, FL from Dr. Nickelice Brand. This solution allows patients to receive a tooth extraction, dental implants, and a bridge of new teeth in just one appointment.

OCALA, FLA. (PRWEB) MARCH 05, 2020
Patients in need of new teeth after tooth extraction or full mouth tooth loss can receive same-day dental implants from Dr. Nickelice Brand of Dental Implants of Ocala. Same-day dental implants allow patients with an entire mouth of missing or failing teeth to get an entirely new smile in just one day. This treatment utilizes advanced technology and Dr. Brand's unique experience and skills to provide life changing treatment for those with severe tooth loss.
"I no longer have to worry about teeth breaking anymore," says Jimmy, a patient who received same-day dental implants from Dr. Brand. "The best part of my treatment was that it was done that morning. I've dealt with teeth problems my whole life, and now it's all done. It makes me feel happy and emotional. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Brand and I'll recommend him until the cows come home."
With the same-day dental implant procedure, Dr. Brand can provide a patient with every step of the tooth replacement process in just one day. Those who need to have all their teeth replaced can be a candidate for this procedure. On the day of surgery, Dr. Brand can provide tooth extraction for remaining teeth, place dental implants into the jaw, and restore the mouth with a lifelike temporary prosthesis. Patients never have to go another day without new teeth when they opt for same-day dental implants.
A dental implant provides a permanent tooth replacement that mimics the look and function of real teeth. When placed into the jawbone, the implant fuses to the bone and firmly holds a crown or bridge prosthesis in place. With dental implants, patients are able to enjoy the benefits of an attractive, functional smile and can eat, speak and smile confidently. Full mouth dental implants restore an entire arch of teeth, top or bottom, with brand new teeth that look and feel natural.
For patients who experience dental anxiety or who are worried about discomfort, Dr. Brand offers IV sedation. This level of sedation puts patients into a deeply relaxed state, allowing them to forget their fears and anxiety, and can prevent them from feeling pain during surgery.
Those interested in same-day dental implants in Ocala, FL are encouraged to contact Dental Implants of Ocala for a personalized consultation. Appointments can be made by calling 352-653-2500 or visiting http://www.dentalimplantsofocala.com.
