(HealthDay News) -- Many older Americans get screened for colon, breast, prostate and cervical cancer even though guidelines recommend against routinely screening the elderly, a new study finds.
As the population of the United States continues to age, balancing good health care with costs will be a continuing battle, experts say. "In an era of escalating health care utilization and expenditures in the United States, identifying areas for cost containment while concurrently improving quality of care in our health care system is increasingly paramount," said lead researcher Keith Bellizzi, an assistant professor of human development and family studies at the University of Connecticut in Storrs.
"Perhaps this area of health care warrants further attention," Bellizzi added.
Currently, nearly 37 million people in the United States are 65 and older, and that number will probably double by 2030. Historically, older adults have been excluded from cancer clinical trials, so what is known about the effectiveness of screening in seniors is limited, he said.
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends against routine screening for breast, colorectal, and prostate cancer at age 75 and beyond, and advises against cervical cancer testing after 65, according to the study. Read more...

What follows is the record of "classifications" done by the ATMP CAT in 2011 related to anything I would call "cell therapies".
In my opinion there are a couple surprises. I'm surprised at the non-cardiac cells (MNCs, CD133s, and MSCs) for cardiac disease/repair being designated TEPs. I'm also surprised at the islets not being classified as an ATMP.
I've tapped into my European and/or regulatory colleagues to help explain those two as well as help us draw any other conclusions or observations we can make in terms of how the CAT is thinking based on the compendium of classifications we have to-date. I'll post an update here when I have something useful.

Inevitably, year-end lists invite plenty of debate and criticism, and Scientific American 's is no exception. Certainly, we could have included the discovery of new worlds beyond our solar system, including Kepler 22 b, an exoplanet in the "Goldilocks" zone of habitability, as well as the first known Earth-size exoplanets . Or noted the accumulating evidence suggesting that hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, to retrieve natural gas is likely to contaminate water supplies. (Final New York State regulations, expected in mid-2012, could determine the future of fracking in the U.S.)
