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).

- According to research published in Arthritis and Research Therapy (free full text available at the above link), prolonged use of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biological therapies may reduce the risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
The authors used data collected as part of QUEST-RA (The Questionnaires in Standard Monitoring of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Program) to look at the prevalence of CV disease amongst non-selected RA outpatients and the relationship between this, clinical features of RA and the use of DMARDs. By October 2006, the QUEST-RA project had enrolled 4,363 patients; the majority were female (78%) and Caucasian (90%).
The prevalence for lifetime CV events in the entire sample was 3.2% for myocardial infarction, 1.9% for stroke, and 9.3% for any CV event (although there was considerable variation between different countries). A third (33%) of patients had hypertension; other traditional risk factors included hyperlipidaemia (14%), diabetes (8%), history of smoking (43%) and obesity (18%). After adjusting for traditional risk factors and countries, the authors found that prolonged exposure to methotrexate (HR 0.85; 95% CI 0.81 to 0.89), leflunomide (HR 0.59; 95% CI 0.43 to 0.79), sulfasalazine (HR 0.92; 95% CI 0.87 to 0.98), glucocorticoids (HR 0.95; 95% CI 0.92 to 0.98), and biologic agents (HR 0.42; 95% CI 0.21 to 0.81; P <0.05) was associated with a reduction in the risk of CV morbidity.
