D Pain rcliever papular with some Latinos SALT LAKE CITY (AP) A pain killer banned in the United States two decades ago because of potentially fatal side effects is still being sold here, often to Hispanic immigrants who are unaware of the danger, researchers said. Metamizole, or dipyrone, is a fever and pain reliever sometimes called "Mexican aspirin." It was removed from the U.S. market in 1979 by the Food and Drug Administration but is available without a prescription in Mexico, other Latin American countries, parts of Asia and Africa. Writing in the June edition of the journal Pediatrics, University of Utah researchers said that Spanish- or Portuguese-speaking parents of children evaluated in a university clinic last fall were interviewed, and more than a third of those surveyed said they had used metamizole. Of those who used it, one-fourth one-fourth said they had bought it in the United States, researchers said.

J- effect is a reduction in disease-fighting disease-fighting white blood cells, making the person susceptible to life-threatening life-threatening infections. The study was sparked by the case of a 4-year-old boy taken to the emergency room at Primary Children's Hospital who had a fever and trouble walking because of what turned out to be a serious infection in his hip. Because he had a low white blood cell count, the boy was checked for leukemia. It was then that study co-author Dr. Carrie Byington, associate professor of pediatrics at the University of Utah's School of Medicine, asked about whether the child had been given metamizole. The boy's mother said she gave it to her son and had also taken it herself. The mother had been hospitalized with a serious infection infec-tion five months before her son; in fact she had nearly died, medical med-ical records showed. "Hers was life-threatening. She was at the point of death when she was admitted to the 7 z 3 3 emergency room. Every organ was affected," Byington said. The mother said she purchased the drug at a Latin American market in Salt Lake City. Byington said they sent Spanish-speaking Spanish-speaking members of their staff to the market, and they were able to purchase the medication for $9 toll. "It's more expensive than Tylenol, but they're here in a strange country. Their child gets sick or they get sick and they'll look for what they recognize," she said. Weber County gets on rail trail bandwagon; PLAIN CITY, Utah (AP) A second railroad bed in Utah has been converted into a hiking trail with the opening of the 10-mile Little Mountain Rail Trail along the southern end of Willard Bay on Great Salt Lake. The trail officially opened Saturday as part of National Trails Day on the Union Pacific Railroad's former Little Mountain branch. The corridor follows 231 acres of open space and waterfowl habitat within and near the Harold Crane Waterfowl Management area. About 40 enthusiasts showed up for the opening, some with horses and bikes, ready to give it a try. Weber Pathways bought the corridor in 2000 from Union Pacific for $151,000 with $22,000 No free state parks day this year in Utah SALT LAKE CITY (AP) There will be no Free State Parks Day in Utah this year because of the state's budget woes. The day usually is held in conjunction con-junction with Utah Free Fishing Day, which still is scheduled for Saturday. But park visitors will not get in for free that day, and the State Parks and Recreation Division's $500,000 budget cut is being blamed. "This isn't something we want to do," said state Parks director Courtland Nelson. "Free State Parks Day was an opportunity for us to thank Utahns for their support of parks."

Utah's first rail-turned-trail links Park City and Coalville on a Union Pacific grade. ' The Little Mountain Rail Trail is distant from traffic and follows a level that makes it easy to walk, bike or ride horses. "It provides a buffer for the waterfowl management area," said Mike Welch, Northern Utah's regional habitat manager for the Division of Wildlife Resources. Geoff Ellis, executive director of Weber Pathways, said: "This will be increasingly valuable to county residents as time goes on and the area becomes more crowded," he said. afford to lose revenue on a major summer vacation weekend from day-use fees, he said. The agency is in the process of transferring management of three former state parks to local governments to cut its budget.
