If a Child Lives With... Praise/ Criticism?

How we raise our grand-kids can affect how they turn out as adults. We all want our kids to be strong, independent and certain of themselves but how should we go about it? While there are no hard and fast rules, keeping these essential tips in mind will surely help. 

 

1) If a child lives with criticism, he learns to condemn.

2) If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight.

3) If a child lives with shame, he learns to feel guilty.

4) If a child lives with tolerance, he learns to be patient.

5) If a child lives with encouragement, he learns to be confident. 

6) If a child lives with praise, he learns to appreciate.

7) If a child lives with fairness, he learns justice.

8) If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself.

9) If a child lives with acceptance and friendship, he learns to find love in the world.

Diabetes is an independent risk factor for development of heart failure

Heart problems are a common development for people with diabetes. In fact, about 33% of people in the U.S. admitted to the hospital for heart failure also have diabetes. Heart failure may be the result of a co-condition, such as hypertension or coronary heart disease, but not always.

A study published in Mayo Clinic Proceedings, Diabetes Mellitus Is an Independent Predictor for the Development of Heart Failure: A Population Study, examines the idea of diabetic cardiomyopathy and heart failure from the effects of diabetes alone.

Utilizing the Rochester Epidemiology Project, researchers evaluated the long-term impact of diabetes on the development of heart failure, both with preserved ejection fraction -; a measurement of the percentage of blood leaving the heart with each contraction -; and reduced ejection fraction. They also looked at mortality in a community population, controlling for hypertension, coronary artery disease and diastolic function. Horng Chen, M.D., cardiologist at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, is senior author of the study.

From an initial group of 2,042 residents of Olmsted County, 116 study participants with diabetes were matched 1:2 for age, hypertension, sex, coronary artery disease and diastolic dysfunction to 232 participants without diabetes. Over the 10-year follow-up period, 21% of participants with diabetes developed heart failure, independent of other causes. In comparison, only 12% of patients without diabetes developed heart failure. Cardiac death, heart attack and stroke were not statistically different in the study between the two groups.

The study shows that diabetes is an independent risk factor for the development of heart failure in the community dwelling population. Furthermore, the outcome data support the concept of a diabetic cardiomyopathy.

This research extends previous findings and demonstrates that even without a known cardiac structural abnormality and with a normal ejection fraction, diabetic patients are still at increased risk of developing heart failure as compared to their non-diabetic counterparts.

The key takeaway is that diabetes mellitus alone is an independent risk factor for the development of heart failure. Our hope is that this study provides a strong foundation for further investigations into diabetes and heart failure. There is still much to learn and study in terms of this association and how to best diagnose and treat this condition."    Dr. Horng Chen, cardiologist, Mayo Clinic.

Teaching autistic kids to talk can help

Teaching children with autism to ‘talk things through’ in their heads may help them solve tricky day-to-day tasks & cold increase the chances of them living independent lives when they grow up, British scientists have said. Psychologists who studied adults with autism found that the mechanism for using ‘inner speech’, or talking things through in your head is intact, but they don’t always use it in the same way as typically developing people do. The results suggest teaching autistic children how to develop inner speech skills may help them cope with daily tasks later in life. It also suggests children with autism may do better at school if they’re encouraged to learn their daily timetable verbally rather than using visual plans, which is currently a common approach. Among core features of autism are poor communication skills & difficulty with social

engagement.
