A proposal to make preexisting health conditions irrelevant in the sale of insurance policies could help not just the seriously ill but also people who might consider themselves healthy, documents released Friday by a California-based advocacy group illustrate. Health insurers have issued guidelines saying they could deny coverage to people suffering from such conditions as acne, hemorrhoids and bunions. One big insurer refused to issue individual policies to police officers and firefighters, along with people in other hazardous occupations. Some treated pregnancy or the intention to adopt as a reason for rejection. *snip* Kristin E. Binns, a spokeswoman for parent...

Screaming and covered in blood, Demi Cuccia ran from her Monroeville home to the arms of neighbor Gayle Slomer. "I held my hand on her chest, trying to stop the blood from flowing out of her body. I cradled her and talked to her. I said, 'Stay with me, Demi. Stay with me,' " Slomer told an Allegheny County jury Tuesday. "She lifted her head, she must have seen John coming out. She screamed at him, 'Get away from me. I hate you. Get away from me. I hate you." She was running from John Mullarkey, her on-again, off-again boyfriend...

LONDON: Karl Marx, who complained of excruciating boils, actually suffered from a chronic skin disease with known psychological effects that may well have influenced his writings, a British expert said on Tuesday. Sam Shuster, professor of dermatology at the University of East Anglia, believes the revolutionary thinker had hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) in which the apocrine sweat glands — found mainly in the armpits and groin — become blocked and inflamed. "In addition to reducing his ability to work, which contributed to his depressing poverty, hidradenitis greatly reduced his self-esteem," said Shuster, who published his findings in the 'British Journal of...

FDA Puts New Restrictions on Accutane By LAURAN NEERGAARD, AP Medical Writer WASHINGTON - The thousands of Americans who take the acne drug Accutane — and people who prescribe and dispense it — must enroll in a national registry, part of a major government program to tighten access to the medicine that causes birth defects. Food and Drug Administration enacted unprecedented curbs Friday in trying to keep Accutane and its generic competitors on the market while ensuring that women who use the risky pills don't get pregnant.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - The activity of male hormones, androgens, can give rise to acne during adolescence, but may also protect against coronary heart disease in adulthood, UK researchers report. However, androgens also appear to be associated with an increased risk of dying from prostate cancer, the study in the American Journal of Epidemiology suggests. "Androgen level or androgen activity is implicated in several health outcomes, but its independent role remains controversial." Dr. Bruna Galobardes, from the University of Bristol, and colleagues note. The investigators examined the association between history of acne in young men and cause-specific mortality in...

There were only a few new cases of depression that showed up among those taking the drug, about the same as in a control group receiving a more conservative acne therapy, the...
