Show fitness Tips By Dale Nelson For years stress tests in one form or another have been used to diag nose coronary artery disease. di-sease. The usual procedure proced-ure is to monitor the heart with an electrocardiogram (ECG) while the person exercises according to test, protocol on a treadmill tread-mill or bicycle ergometer. Blood pressure is also monitored as a part of the test. In some cases, doctors do a resting ECG or have the person take a step test while being monitored. monitor-ed. In others, the patient steps up and down for a while and then has the heart testedwiththeECG. Health professionals have even gone so far as to recommend that everyone every-one over 35 be stress tested as a part of the yearly physical examination. examina-tion. Stress tests are being be-ing recommended for any- one over 35 who is planning plan-ning to embark on an exercixe program. Do you need a stress thest? Originally it wasn't possible pos-sible to compare ECG findings with the amount of fatty-cholesterol deposits de-posits in the coronary arteris. Technologicalad-vances Technologicalad-vances with coronary arteriograms ar-teriograms (heart catheterization) cath-eterization) have made this possible. Data are now available from a study sponsored by the Division of Heart and Vascular Disease of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. In-stitute. The answer to our question ques-tion is that it won't help a great deal. The study shows, for example, that men, (who are more prone to coronary artery disease di-sease and the history is so reliable that doing a stress test doesn't add much to making a diagnosis. diag-nosis. In a fairly high percentage per-centage of cases there are false negatives and false positives, which means that some who have no symptoms do have coronary cor-onary artery disease and others who have symptoms symp-toms diagnosed from the test really do not have coronary artery disease. Such negative tests simply sim-ply confuse the issue and lend a false sense of security se-curity to the patient and the doctor. False-positive tests bring fear into lives where there is nothing seriously wrong. What does it all mean? According toDr. Lawrence Lawr-ence E. Lamb. "It means the electrocardiographic stress test is of little value, whether the results re-sults are positive or negative, neg-ative, in either patients who have symptoms of heart disease or in our general population which is symptom free." Consequently, it seems obvious that millions of people who have no history his-tory of heart disease and have no symptoms to suggest sug-gest heart disease should not be required to have a stress test before embarking em-barking on a sensible exercise ex-ercise program. The best predictive tests are those that measure mea-sure you risk factors-such factors-such as high blood pressure, pres-sure, favorable ratio of HDLLDL "cholesterol," smoking, and some indirect in-direct factors such as obesity and lack of exercise. ex-ercise.

WIC Feeding Program Approved By Democrats Historian Begins Energy Research On Reservations Utah County Democrats called for adoption and implementation implemen-tation of the Women's and Infant Childrens' (WIC) feeding program, at their annual convention. conven-tion. The WIC program is funded by the Department Depar-tment of Agriculture and administered by the Utah State Division of Health, Family Health Services Branch and through local . health departments. The WIC program is administered nationally by most counties, however several counties in Utah refuse to allow the program in. Utah and Wasatch counties are two of less than 30 counties nationally which administer ad-minister the program . WIC provides specified nutritious food supplements to pregnant and nursing women, and to infants and children up to five years of age who are determined by physicians, nutritionists, nurses and other health officials to be nutritional risks because of inadequate nutrition and inadequate income. Nancy Kader, Chair of the Utah County Democratic Party said, "Of all the federally funded fun-ded programs I have seen, this is one of the most family oriented federal programs available. It helps children grow up healthy and that's an issue we all must promote." The Democratic party official said she found the issue of WIC "not political." Republicans and Democrats support this important issue. The acceleration of energy development in the western United States presents both challenges and opportunities for the Indian tribes on whose lands many of these resources re-sources are located, says a University of Utah historian. Dr. Veronica E. Tiller Til-ler says that with an estimated es-timated 17 percent of Rocky Mountain energy reserves situated on Indian In-dian properties, tribal councils should be better prepared to protect their rights in future lease negotiations. Tiller, assistant professor pro-fessor of history, has , begun a 16-month study of the growth and evolution evolu-tion in federal policies governing energy development develop-ment on Indian reservations. reserva-tions. Her study will begin with 1891, the ye Congress Con-gress first authorized tribes to lease their holdings hold-ings for mining. "What I hope to be able to tell the various tribes at the conclusion of this study is what rights they have and what procedures pro-cedures are available that . will ensure them a fair share in energy development develop-ment revenues and protection pro-tection of the land," says Tiller, herself a Jicarilla Apache. Her research will take her to seven Indian reservations - the Jicarilla Jicar-illa Apache and Laguna Pueblo in New Mexico, , the Navajo in the Four Corners region, the Northern Nor-thern Cheyenne and Crow in Montana, the Wind River Arapahoe in Wyoming Wyo-ming and the Uintah-Ouray Uintah-Ouray in Utah. The U professor plans to do most of her research 'at the National Archives in Washington, D.C, the National Records Center in Suitland, Md., and the Federal Records Center in Denver, Colo. She will also use a number of public pub-lic and private libraries as well as records kept by the various tribes. i |
