    Talktala - Online Group Therapy Platform
    See on Scoop.it - Of human kindness

    The online support group is almost as old as the Internet. It easily overcomes location, limited budgets and desire for anonymity. Online therapy arrived a bit later, with studies as early as 2009 supporting the theory that an online chat with a psychotherapist could be successful at helping people with depression.

    Now Talktala, a startup that launched Tuesday, aims to combine the best of both approaches to online mental health support. The company offers group sessions led by a certified therapist. [Source: Mashable.com http://goo.gl/d9iVA

    Medical News: Ablation Could Be First-Line Atrial Fibrillation Therapy
    See on Scoop.it - Cardiovascular disease

    This study was published as an abstract and presented at a conference. These data and conclusions should be considered to be preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.

    For patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, pulmonary vein isolation with radiofrequency ablation was superior to antiarrhythmic drug therapy as first-line treatment.

    Note that removing the events identified through transtelephonic monitoring, and focusing solely on those identified clinically, eliminated the significant difference on the primary efficacy endpoint between the two groups.
