Women or girls are up to twice as likely to suffer concussion as their male counterparts when playing the same sports under the same rules, various studies show. They also tend to have more symptoms and take longer to recover. Much of what is known about concussion comes from male-dominated research. Some 80 per cent of participants in key concussion studies are male, and 40 per cent of studies exclude women, while only 1 per cent of research focuses exclusively on female athletes, according to a review of studies published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. irishtimes.com/health/your-fa…




JUST IN: US to refund $166 billion in tariffs after Supreme Court ruling


Another indication of life under the new Kentucky law protecting organ donors is “changes in heart rate or blood pressure inconsistent with a death declaration.” “Brain dead” organ donors routinely respond with elevations in heart rate and blood pressure during the incisions, bone sawing, and surgical manipulations of organ harvesting. During my training as an anesthesiologist, I personally witnessed a “brain dead” organ donor responding to surgery just like anyone else, requiring the same types and amounts of anesthesia. An intact pain response during organ removal is not seen in true corpses — no drugs whatsoever are required when organs are removed during an autopsy. So operating room staff in Kentucky can now stop the procedure when they hear the organ donor’s heart rate increasing with incision, because “any neurological or physiological sign suggesting pain perception” is listed under the law as justifying a pause in organ procurement. @LifeSite
