Breast Lift Procedure
A mastopexy or breast lift is a surgical procedure performed to reshape the breast and return it to a more youthful position. Drooping of the breast may occur after pregnancy as well as aging. Frequently a breast implant may be used in conjunction with a breast lift in order to achieve better results. Depending on the amount of breast lifting that needs to be accomplished, different techniques may be used that involve different incisions. Generally, the more lifting that is required, the larger the incision (and therefore the scar).

- Among U.S. soldiers returning from Iraq, those who suffered concussions were more likely to have PTSD and depression, an Army study shows.
- According to the findings of a meta-analysis published early online in Thorax, “a short course of antibiotic treatment is as effective as the traditional longer treatment in patients with mild to moderate exacerbations of chronic bronchitis and COPD.”
Researchers searched for double-blind RCTs in adults with a clinical diagnosis of exacerbation of COPD or chronic bronchitis, who were not receiving antibiotics at the time of diagnosis, and who were randomised to antibiotic treatment up to 5 days vs. > 5 days. The primary outcome measure was clinical cure at early follow-up, on an intention to treat basis. They identified 21 studies involving 10,698 patients; the average quality of the studies was considered high (mean Jadad score = 3.9). The following results were reported:
• At early follow-up (< 25 days), the summary odds ratio (OR) for clinical cure with short treatment vs. conventional treatment was 0.99 (95% CI 0.90 to 1.08).
• At late follow-up the summary OR was 1.0 (95% CI 0.91 to 1.10) and the summary OR for bacteriological cure was 1.05 (95% CI 0.87 to 1.26) with short vs. conventional treatment
• Similar summary ORs were observed for early cure in trials with the same antibiotic in both arms and in studies grouped by the antibiotic class used in the short-course arm.
The researchers suggest that these findings “support the effectiveness of short course treatment in mild to moderate exacerbations of COPD or chronic bronchitis characterised by at least two of the following criteria: increased cough and/or dyspnoea, increased sputum volume and increased purulence. Based on the included studies, it seems that the duration of antibiotic treatment can be safely reduced.”
