Regular aspirin use may slow progression of early emphysema

Regular use of aspirin may help slow the
progression of early emphysema,
according to new research presented at
the 2015 American Thoracic Society
International Conference.
Nowadays, emphysema is included in a
group of diseases called chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),
which includes chronic bronchitis.
"In our large general population sample,
we found that regular aspirin use (three or
more days per week) was associated with
a slower progression of percent
emphysema on computed tomography
(CT) scans over 10 years."
The study, which was motivated by
findings of pulmonary vascular
involvement in emphysema and the
importance of platelet function in other
vascular diseases, included 4,471
individuals participating in the Multi-
Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis Lung
Study.
The percentage of lung volume with
emphysematous features (percent
emphysema) was assessed on up to 4 CT
scans performed over approximately 10
years of follow-up.
Median baseline percent emphysema was
2.92 with a mean increase of 0.83% over
10 years. The participants who regularly
used aspirin, compared with those who
did not, had a significantly slower
progression of percent emphysema (–
0.36%; 95% CI, –0.63 to –0.09) across 10
years.Aspirin use may slow development of

WZoneLite – A Pretty Cool WooCommerce Amazon Affiliate Plugin .

Everyone wants to make a million dollars by being a blogger. The promise of riches and internet fame is a big draw to doing it for a lot of people, and I’m sorry to say that the reality of being a blogger (even a professional blogger!) is not quite…as financially lucrative as all that. But that’s not to say that it  can’t be –one of the best ways to start your empire is with an Amazon affiliate plugin. For me, the Amazon Associates program has been one of the biggest earners for me over the years. Not only are there CPM ads like Google Adsense (you know, the normal banner ads we all love to hate), but any time someone clicks a link from your site, you get a percentage of  anything  they buy while the token from your site lasts in their browser. If they buy a song, you get a few cents. If they buy a new MacBook Pro and iPhone? You get…a lot more cents. With that in mind, WZoneLite is a  pretty cool WooCommerce Amazon affiliate plugin that syncs everything together s...

AWS Battles Rivals: Advertising Campaign

Amazon Web Services has defeated IBM in a competition for lucrative federal contracts, threatened Microsoft's core businesses, and reshaped corporate technology. In the last few months, the pioneering cloud-computing unit of the online retail giant has taken a page from the playbook of some of its more traditional competitors: It started advertising. Ads have been splashed across billboards and in airport terminals, television spots and web videos, featuring a whiteboard full of sketches of software architecture and appeals to invent something using Amazon's collection of rented computing services. The advertising campaign, which bears the "Build On" tagline, represents a milestone in AWS' march from technology upstart to one of the major players in business software, technologists and marketers say. For many years, AWS didn't advertise, partly because it didn't have to. The service held a wide lead over the competition, and word-of-mouth was enough to...
