The You Docs: Got Burned? Do the right thing

What do you do the second after you burn yourself on the saute pan or your grill? (Note: We didn't ask what you say. We want to know what you do).
Leave the butter in the fridge; the best thing you can do is quickly put ice water on it (not ice; ice water). This slows down the rush of inflammatory cells that create blistering and increase the damage of the burn. By the way, if it hurts, that's good. It means you didn't fry the full thickness of your skin. A deep burn kills nerves, so you don't actually feel it.
Next, clean the area with soap and water to remove any dirt and bacteria. Apply a sterile moisturizer, like bacitracin or Neosporin, twice a day, and don't pop any blisters! They're the ideal sterile biologic dressing over the new skin that's quickly growing over the injured area. Mess with Mother Nature's protective covering, and scarring will be worse. Baby the burn a bit by covering it with fine gauze.
Call the doc if the burn is on your hands, face or genitals (we won't ask) and is bigger than a nickel. He or she may want to treat it with an antibiotic cream called Silvadene that kills bacteria and keeps the burn moist.

Study looks at autism, rain

Study looks at autism, rain
Washington among states examined for possible link
By PAUL NYHANP-I REPORTER

For decades, researchers have struggled to find the causes of autism. This week, one group suggested a reason might be found in the rain.
Cornell University researchers said children living in rainy counties appeared to have higher reported rates of autism than those in drier areas, after analyzing data from Washington, Oregon and California.
Washington counties west of the Cascades, for example, got four times as much precipitation and had autism rates twice as high as those in the East, according to the study's co-author, Sean Nicholson.
In rain-soaked Seattle, some parents saw these findings as yet another piece in a complicated puzzle. There is no known cause of autism and no established cure.
"I kind of think there is something to the kids not getting enough vitamin D," said LeAnne Beardsley, whose 4-year-old daughter, Keely-Fae, has been diagnosed with autism. "This study really doesn't surprise me at all."
Researchers stressed their work wasn't designed for Beardsley and other parents, but to guide experts toward one area that could help explain how autism is triggered in children vulnerable to the neurological disorder.
"We are trying to communicate with the autism medical community to sort of indicate where they should be looking," said Cornell professor Michael Waldman, lead author of the report and an economist.
But the findings also are sure to feed the raging debate among parents, doctors, academics and researchers about what causes autism, currently diagnosed in one out of every 150 children, according to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate.
The latest research, published in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, comes with caveats. It doesn't confirm a cause-and-effect link between rain and autism and doesn't offer definitive proof. But Waldman suggested it was an important step toward discovering environmental triggers for autism.
Fifteen years ago, literature focused on autism as a genetic condition. Now many experts believe the disorder is triggered by a combination of environmental and genetic factors -- they just don't know how.
This week's peer-reviewed paper raised the possibility that heavy rainfall forces vulnerable children indoors, where there is greater exposure to cleaning chemicals and television, and less exposure to sunshine -- and the vitamin D it produces.
"Clearly, further study is required, especially given that many of the possible environmental triggers discussed may be avoidable or correctable," Dr. John Williams, who worked on the study and practices at the Children's Hospital of Pennsylvania, said in a statement.
The ideas are more fodder for parents of autistic children, who have been bombarded by both well-researched and misguided suggested causes, such as proposed connections to vaccines that were then dismissed by medical studies.
"As a parent with lay knowledge, I take it with a huge grain of salt," said Arzu Forough, a Seattle-area parent of two autistic children.
The public shouldn't jump to conclusions because these studies are valuable only after being repeatedly confirmed, according to Paul Offit, author of the new book "Autism's False Prophets: Bad Science, Risky Medicine, and the Search for a Cure."
The Cornell research team appeared to agree, urging more studies and promising more of their own. "Our hope is that this study will spur those in the medical community to investigate what the specific trigger might be that is driving our findings, so that countless children can be spared an autism diagnosis," Waldman said in a statement.
While the Cornell research is far from definitive, the authors said they hope it will help others understand how environmental factors spark the disorder.
If nothing else, the latest research may open a fresh line of inquiry into a health problem that has stumped the medical community for decades.
"It does raise more questions than it does answers," said Sara Jane Webb, a developmental psychologist at the University of Washington's Autism Center.
