Kids see less conflict at home when dads quit drinking



By Allison Bond NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Men who get treatment for alcoholism don't just improve their own health and wellbeing, they also transform their children's home life for the better, according to a recent study. "Alcohol dependence, as well as its treatment, are complicated," said Daniel Rounsaville, lead author of the study and a psychologist at Meadow's Edge Recovery Center in North Kingston, Rhode Island. "It's great to know that the treatment doesn't just help the individual, but also the larger family system, that there are trickle-down effects of the treatment," Rounsaville told Reuters Health. The study included 67 Massachusetts couples with a male partner seeking treatment for alcoholism and with children between the ages of four and 16.







Pregnancy effects of inflammatory bowel disease may vary



By Jennifer Cash NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Some forms of inflammatory bowel disease are a bigger threat to pregnancy than others, suggests a large new U.S. analysis. One of two major types of IBD, ulcerative colitis, was most strongly linked to serious pregnancy complications, researchers found in a study of nearly 400,000 women. But all women with IBD can and should take precautions for a safe pregnancy, experts said. "A sick mother is not good for a growing pregnancy," Dr. Shannon Clark, an obstetrician in the Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, told Reuters Health by email.
