SYDNEY, May 24 (Xinhua) -- Australian soldiers and contractors in Iraq might have been exposed to blood-borne diseases such as HIV or hepatitis, as staff at Defense's main hospital unit in the Middle East failed to sterilize surgical equipment properly, local media reported on Tuesday.Fairfax newspapers reported the safety breach occurred at the AL Minhad Air Base in the United Arab Emirates over a 19 month period, from February 2009 to August 2010, but soldiers were alerted to the problem only a week ago.A Defense Department memo to troops has warned that soldiers and contractors who passed through the air base hospital near Dubai should ensure they had their blood screened, The Sydney Morning Herald reported."Personnel who underwent a surgical procedure during that period are possibly at risk of acquiring a blood-borne disease," the memo said.However, the health alert says the risk to Australian Defense Force personnel is low, as blood-borne diseases within the force are rare and personnel are vaccinated against hepatitis.The Defense Force's Surgeon-General, Major General Paul Alexander, wrote the "internal procedural issue" was dealt with by the health system and measures were put in place to prevent a repeat of the error.

WELLINGTON, May 13 (Xinhua) -- While it's long been known that a little sunshine can spread happiness, researchers in New Zealand have found that it can also save the lives of pneumonia patients.Medical scientists have found that vitamin D, which is absorbed through the skin and produced with exposure to sunlight, is a major factor in the survival rate of pneumonia patients.Researchers at Waikato University collaborated with doctors at Waikato Hospital, both Hamilton-based institutions, to study blood samples of 112 patients admitted to the hospital with pneumonia during the winter.They found that those with severe vitamin D deficiency 17 of the patients were more likely to die within a month, compared with patients with normal or slightly low vitamin D levels.Dr Bob Hancox, of the hospital's department of respiratory medicine, said five of the 17 died, a 29-percent mortality rate, compared with four deaths among the 95 patients with higher vitamin D levels, a 4-percent mortality rate."The analysis confirmed that the difference in mortality rates between the two groups was very unlikely to be due to chance," Hancox told Xinhua.Vitamin D deficiency was a concern around the world, Hancox said."Sunlight is the main source of vitamin D, so it tends to be a winter problem in temperate climates when people spend a lot of time indoors. But it occurs in all countries and vitamin D deficiency is believed to be a major problem worldwide."There is accumulating evidence that we need vitamin D to help fight infections, such as pneumonia as we have shown, as well as improve bone health," he told Xinhua."What is not yet clear is whether we can do anything about it. We don't know whether treating people with vitamin D supplements would help to prevent or treat respiratory infections. This is what we need to find out now."Dr Ray Cursons, of the Biological Sciences department at Waikato University, said patient age, sex, additional health conditions, and other prognostic factors did not affect the research outcome, although researchers still could not establish a causal link between vitamin D deficiency and mortality in the patients.Waikato Hospital D respiratory specialist Dr Noel Karalus said it was not yet known whether giving patients vitamin D supplements after their admission to hospital with respiratory tract infections would alter outcomes."It may transpire that vitamin D helps us avoid infection rather than cure it once established."Cursons said the best source of vitamin D was sunlight as dietary sources such as fatty fish and cod liver oil did not contain enough vitamin D."There is still some controversy regarding the optimal daily allowance of vitamin D. How much we absorb through the skin depends on sun exposure, skin type and geographical latitude. M ori and Pacific Islanders absorb less because of their darker skin, and people in colder climates also have lower levels of vitamin D. "Pneumonia is the single largest cause of death in children worldwide, killing an estimated 1.6 million children under the age of five each year, according to the World Health Organization.The research findings are published in the journal Respirology, published by the Asian Pacific Society of Respirology, this month.

BEIJING, March 22 (Xinhua) -- China's State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) has ordered a "serious investigation" into two kinds of bath products that reportedly gave children skin diseases.The order came after recent reports accused the body wash and lotion used by bathhouse chain Tian Po Po Xi Jiu Tang, or, literally, "Grandma Tian's Bathhouse," in southwest China's Sichuan Province of having "caused severe body damages," according to a SFDA statement released Tuesday.The bathhouse chain, with a history of some 70 years, was first established in Sichuan's capital Chengdu and was listed as a part of the city's Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2009.The licensed bathhouse claimed to use bath products developed by its own Chinese herbal medicine recipes that protected children from various skin ailments and other diseases, such as eczema, colds, and constipation.However, an unknown number of children suffered pustular psoriasis, a chronic skin irritation characterize by raised bumps, after washing at the bathhouse chain and using the two products, according to reports.Sichuan's provincial food and drug administration bureau previously deemed the two products to be "fake drugs" based on an initial investigation by the local police and food and drug authorities, the statement said.The SFDA urged local food and drug supervision departments across the country to monitor and check the two products sold by the bathhouse chain within their regions, and vowed to punish any violations of laws and regulations.

BEIJING, Jan. 23 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Hu Jintao's state visit to the United States, during which he reached important consensus with U.S. President Barack Obama on building a cooperative China-U.S. partnership based on mutual respect and mutual benefit, has been closely followed by world media.The visit has drawn "unprecedented" world attention, said Gu Xuewu, director of the Center for Global Studies at the University of Bonn.NEW CHAPTER IN DEVELOPMENT OF CHINA-U.S. TIESCommenting on Hu's visit, which occurred at the beginning of the second decade of the 21st century, Professor Severino Cabral, director of Brazil's China and Asia-Pacific Research Institute, said the visit opened a new epoch for China-U.S. relations.The resumption of dialogue between the world's two major economies, which itself is a significant event, would exert great influence on the new world agenda, and hopefully help eliminate the residual cold war mentality and take bilateral relations to a new era, he said.Chen Kang, professor at Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore, said that the joint statement issued by the two sides during Hu's stay -- built upon bilateral efforts to establish a cooperative partnership based on mutual respect and mutual benefit -- is a clear reflection of the two countries' resolution and pragmatic attitude in jointly meeting global challenges.China Press USA, a New York-based Chinese language newspaper, said in an editorial that the two countries' commitment to building an all-round and mutually beneficial, win-win economic partnership, as put in their joint statement, is the greatest achievement that comes out of the meeting between the leaders of the two countries in the economic sphere.Nouvelles D'Europe, a major Chinese language newspaper in France, said in an editorial that Hu's visit yielded fruitful results which are indispensable to world peace and development.In their joint statement, the two countries for the first time defined that China-U.S. partnership is based on mutual respect and mutual benefit. Stable China-U.S. relations contribute to world stability, and a win-win scenario between China and the United States is conducive to a scenario of multi-party-win in a multipolar world, it said.International Daily News, an Indonesian newspaper, said that Hu's visit achieved a historic breakthrough. Their joint statement signaled a new chapter in their "cooperative partnership based on mutual respect and mutual benefit," and Asia is hailing the new orientation of bilateral ties and achievement set up by the leaders of the two countries.
