[Improvement in quality of life in the elderly. Results of a placebo-controlled study on the efficacy and tolerability of lecithin fluid in patients with impaired cognitive functions]
[Article in German]

Lecithin, a precursor of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, has a positive effect on brain and memory functions. In a prospective, randomized, double-blind study, the effect of buerlecithin fluid (BLF) was investigated in comparison with placebo in patients with mild cognitive disorders. A total of 96 ambulatory patients (> 55 years) were admitted to the study. Treatment duration was 84 days. In both treatment groups, a clear improvement in all the cognitive parameters tested was seen. The main target measure, the overall Sandoz Clinical Assessment Geriatric (SCAG) score improved by 18.7 (test substance) and 16.4 (placebo) points (p = 0.1620). A statistically relevant improvement of the secondary target parameter, response in the SCAG score, was achieved with BLF (85.4%) in comparison with placebo (62.5%) (p = 0.018). Furthermore, BLF demonstrated significant superiority in a number of the other target measures. The study also confirmed the very good tolerability of BLF.

Michael - 16 May 2005 18:34 GMT Oh, but I *am* interested, Tom. It would be good of you to forget about *me*, and concentrate instead on explaining the significance of the data you've presented what they'd mean if applied in the real world instead of just in the lab.
The trouble is that whenever (as is happening now) you're asked to explain your stuff, you change the subject.

I figure by reading your own words explaining what is so important about all these factoids you're always shoving in everyone's faces, I could understand *why* it is that you're willing to - sometimes it even seems like you're *trying* to - alienate yourself from all of humanity by doing so.
markd@toad-net.com - 16 May 2005 19:58 GMT Tom does a search each day using a few search terms of iron, antioxidants, etc.; or so he has confessed in his writings. If he thinks the results don't support his iron causes all disease thesis he tosses it, otherwise he blindly posts it. Sometimes he messes up and some research showing his thesis flawed gets through. He generally doesn't understand what the post says, doesn't understand the vocabulary it uses, and doesn't know how the conclusions were derived or how it relates to anyother body of research in general. He posts if the search terms and some disorder shows up together in one place. He then cherry picks some phrase to support his thesis, but usually doesn't explain how it does. Often when the full article is read it is seen that the cherry picking and editing cuts out other parts that contridict what he wants us to see. That is the extent and full methodology of his "research" and it is why he cann't/willn't discuss or explain the post; he doesn't have the ability on many levels to do so and wants to conceal that reality.
When someone asks a serious question of his post it is rare to get past even one response without him attacking the person as the best he can muster in answer. I have posted research in specific detail which dismantels each and every part of his thesis and the theology and the science on which he constructed it. Does it make a difference, no, because the problem is not one science or logic or theology can address. The problem resides with him and is a particular problem which explains all but not otherwise relevant or useful to discuss. That is why I have ceased responding to the content of his posts and his personal attacks as a kind of spiritual growth on my behalf, Lord have mercy on me.

Karen - 17 May 2005 04:12 GMT Sounds similar to the behavior my MIL exhibited pre-diagnosis. Inappropriate responses, disjointed responses that make no sense, seeing and responding to attacks that aren't there -- her problem was dementia. Hmmm...

Ironjustice is a troll, troll, troll, a monomaniac who believes that all illness is due to too much iron. PLEASE DON'T FEED THIS TROLL. We want him to go away. Just add him to your "block sender" list and you won't have to reply to any of his idiotic posts.
