Last year doctors offered to treat Horton’s infection with one of nature’s oldest predators — tiny tripod-looking viruses called phages designed to find, attack and gobble up bacteria. SCIEPRO/Science Photo Library/Getty ImagesThe microscopic creatures have saved the lives of patients dying from superbug infections and are being used in clinical trials as a potential solution to the growing problem of antibiotic resistance. Would the bacteria from her ear help scientists find phages that would treat the eye infections as well? By the following January, the CDC said at least 50 patients in 11 states had developed superbug infections after using preservative‐free artificial tears. It was a qualified success: The antibiotic-resistant bacteria in five patients were eradicated, while several more patients showed improvements.

By Dennis Thompson HealthDay Reporter(HealthDay)MONDAY, Jan. 15, 2024 (HealthDay News) -- Taking nitrates for heart problems alongside erectile dysfunction drugs like Viagra or Cialis could be a prescription for trouble, a new study warns. “Physicians are seeing an increase of requests for erectile dysfunction drugs from men with cardiovascular diseases,” said senior researcher Dr. Daniel Peter Andersson, an associate professor at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden. Among those men, more than 5,700 also had been prescribed an erectile dysfunction drug. The data revealed that men taking both drugs had an overall higher risk of death, as well as of heart attack, heart failure and other major cardiovascular events. Few events occurred within 28 days of men receiving an erectile dysfunction drug, indicating that there is low immediate risk, researchers said.

CNN —A loud bang, a jolt, and cold air whooshing suddenly through the cabin: these were the immediate signs that something was very wrong aboard Alaska Airlines flight 1282, according to one passenger report. As investigators work to determine exactly what caused the incident, we look at what happens when an aircraft experiences a sudden loss of cabin pressure and the risks for those on board. “As the aircraft climbs, the cabin pressure will eventually settle to about 8,000 feet. The flight crew will immediately start working to get the aircraft down to about 10,000 feet, where the air will be breathable. There will also be a massive wind blast as all that pressure in the cabin goes out the hole.
