Diet was a first step. To begin with, such cholesterol-rich foods as eggs and organ meats and most cheeses can directly add to the level of potentially harmful LDL. Fat has an even bigger impact, although the reasons are not well understood. Saturated fat tends to raise LDL levels. Butter, bacon, beef, whole milk, virtually any food of animal origin is high in saturated fat; so are two vegetable oils: coconut and palm. Polyunsaturated fats, which are typically of vegetable origin, have the opposite effect; thus corn, safflower, soybean and sesame oils tend to lower the level of potentially...
...radical, last-ditch effort to save her life: a liver transplant. The cells of the liver are specially equipped to remove harmful LDL cholesterol from the blood, but because of her genetic defect this mechanism was not working in Stormie's liver. The hope was that a new organ would cleanse LDL cholesterol from her blood and perhaps even reverse the buildup in her arteries. There was one hitch, however. Says Pediatric Surgeon Basil Zittelli of Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh, where the transplant was performed: "We thought that her heart, in its present condition, could not withstand...
These people have lost their hearing usually because disease has destroyed the functioning of the cochlea, a snail-shaped organ the size of a pea. Inside the cochlea are thousands of microscopic cells that transmit sound as electrical signals through the auditory nerve to the brain...
...band's great trademarks. One reason for the omission could be last year's release of Interludes, a collection of all of Berkey's interludes from the first four albums--a possible reluctance to continue along the same line. This, however, would not explain the additional lack of organ Tocattas which started off their last two albums. In pursuit of what, has Mannheim Steamroller foresaken these trademarks? They seem at first to be "playing if safe," taking the themes which everyone liked from their previous albums to make a new one, but have they merely forgotten some obvious favorites...
...synthesize each phrase individually and put the whole thing together on tape, a laborious, time-consuming process. By contrast, today's advanced digital synthesizers, such as the Synclavier and the Fairlight (typical cost: $30,000) are easier to play, far more versatile and smaller than a Hammond organ. In 1982 more than 40,000 synthesizers were sold...
