Early Treatment with Bayer Drug Can Drastically Lower the Risk of Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease
First international study on the prevention of diabetes; Better and more cost-effective treatment possible
Patients with impaired glucose tolerance who receive treatment with acarbose at an early stage can not only prevent type II (adult-onset) diabetes from developing but can also drastically lower the risk of cardiovascular complications such as myocardial infarction. These findings of the large-scale international STOP-NIDDM Study were recently presented at the 21st International Bayer Pharma Press Seminar in Munich. "The clock starts ticking long before diabetes is diagnosed," warned the Principal Investigator of the Study, Professor Jean-Louis Chiasson from Montreal, Canada. According to Professor Chiasson, the findings of the STOP-NIDDM Study confirm that impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), a condition regarded as a precursor stage to diabetes, has to be treated at an early stage if cardiovascular complications which frequently take a fatal course are to be avoided.

The 'Male Cancer'
Raising Awareness of One Of The Most Deadly and Most Silent Cancers
Kidney cancer, considered one of the deadliest cancers, is on the rise. Approximately
30,000 new cases are diagnosed annually in the United States, and 10,000 people will die
each year from the disease. Men are five times more likely to develop kidney cancer than
women. There are no diagnostic tests for kidney cancer, making it hard to detect, and the symptoms, such as pain in the lower back or blood in the urine, don't necessarily point to the disease.
Unlike other cancers, kidney cancer doesn't respond to chemotherapy, since one of
the major functions of the kidneys is to clear the body of toxins. The only approved drug
treatment for kidney cancer includes a combination of Interleukin or IL2 and Inteferon.
Several new therapies on the cutting edge of kidney cancer treatment show promise, for
many patients who do not respond to conventional therapy.
