Glucose Monitoring Methods May Not Work Well with Some Medical Products
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising health care providers that their patients should not use certain glucose monitoring methods if they are also receiving therapeutic products containing non-glucose sugars, such as peritoneal dialysis solutions and certain immunoglobulins. The glucose test strips causing concern are those containing glucose dehydrogenase pyrroloquinoline quinone (GDH-PQQ), including certain AccuCheck test strips, manufactured by Roche Diagnostics, and some Freestyle brand test strips, manufactured by Abbott Diabetes Care. These products can falsely elevate glucose results, which may prompt patients to use or to be administered too much insulin. These therapeutic products, which are labeled to indicate that they may interfere with this particular glucose monitoring technology, are mostly used in patients with serious medical conditions, including kidney failure and moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. The affected products are listed at http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/AlertsandNotices/PublicHealthNotifications/ucm176992.htm#attachment.

Risks of “Baseball Arbitration” in Resolving Real Estate Disputes
“Baseball arbitration” refers to the process used in Major League Baseball in which if an eligible player's representative and the club ownership cannot reach a compensation agreement through negotiation, each party enters a final submission and during a formal hearing each side — player and management — presents its case and then the designated panel of arbitrators chooses one of the salary bids with no other result being allowed. This method has become increasingly popular even beyond the sport of baseball.
