Double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Shervin Naderi, MD, FACS, has been named one of America’s Best Plastic Surgeons 2023 by Newsweek magazine for his outstanding surgical skills and expertise in rhinoplasty.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Dr. Shervin Naderi was distinguished in the rhinoplasty category in Newsweek’s prestigious second annual ranking of the country’s top plastic surgeons. He was recognized for his artistic mastery, innovative techniques, and commitment to patient satisfaction at The Naderi Center, which has two locations in the Greater Washington DC metro with offices in Reston Virginia, and Chevy Chase Maryland.

As a preeminent rhinoplasty expert, Dr. Naderi combines his extensive experience and perceptive eye to craft elegant, natural-looking results tailored to each patient. Unlike any other Plastic Surgeon in the United States, Dr. Naderi exclusively performs only one surgery – Rhinoplasty, making him a true Rhinoplasty specialist.

A Prestigious Honor Among the Nation’s Best

Earning a spot on Newsweek’s selective list is an exceptional achievement that denotes superior expertise and patient satisfaction. The America’s Best Plastic Surgeons ranking is based on a rigorous selection process involving thousands of medical professional recommendations and assessments of quality of care.

Out of about 12,000 plastic surgeons only 358 plastic surgeons across 20 states made the final list this year, which speaks to the highly competitive nature of this honor. Dr. Naderi was one of only 165 honored for rhinoplasty surgery.

This prestigious accolade affirms Dr. Naderi’s leading reputation and validates the consistently outstanding care he provides patients. His position among the top plastic surgeons world wide underscores Dr. Naderi’s commitment to achieving beautiful, natural, harmonious results and the highest levels of patient satisfaction through his rhinoplasty practice.

About Dr. Shervin Naderi

Dr. Shervin Naderi is renowned as an exceptional rhinoplasty surgeon and a leading authority on nasal surgery. Although The Naderi Center provides a full array of face and body cosmetic surgery procedures with several ultra specialist surgeons, Dr. Naderi is focused on the nose.

Almost a quarter century ago, after completing his residency in Head and Neck Surgery at Indiana University School of Medicine, Dr. Naderi pursued an intensive fellowship under world-renowned facial plastic surgeon Dr. Stephen Perkins. This advanced training allowed him to hone his skills and develop techniques to expertly handle the intricacies of nasal surgery. He has grown exponentially and innovated far more superior techniques since then.

With over two decades of experience performing thousands of rhinoplasties, Dr. Naderi has become one of the most sought-after rhinoplasty surgeons in the world. He is able to precisely diagnose structural issues and create customized surgical plans to optimize both form and function. A Naderi Nose is uniquely tailored for each patient with no cookie cutter noses and no telltale signs of plastic surgery.

His accomplishments and reputation for excellence have earned Dr. Naderi international recognition. Patients come from all over the United States and overseas for the opportunity to have their surgery performed by Dr. Naderi.

Dr. Naderi’s Prestigious Accolades and Accomplishments

• Named an Outstanding Cosmetic Surgeon by the National Institute of Cosmetic And Plastic Surgery Research

Dr. Naderi’s extensive expertise and commitment to patient satisfaction have earned him a reputation as one of the country’s foremost rhinoplasty experts.

Dr. Naderi spends many hours each week talking potential patients out of cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Nader’s patients have the opportunity to see advanced computer imaging to demonstrate the potential outcome of their surgery.

In certain cases, Dr. Naderi may advise patients that rhinoplasty is unnecessary or recommend alternative treatments better suited to their objectives. Patient education and satisfaction take precedence over any other incentives.

Dr. Naderi’s thorough, honest communication and mastery of facial aesthetics have earned the trust of his patients. His focus remains on fulfilling their goals and creating a nose they will feel proud of for a lifetime.

Northeast Delta Human Services Authority (NEDHSA) announces the launch of its innovative harm-reduction vending machines. These state-of-the-art machines are designed to provide critical resources and support to individuals at risk of substance abuse, promoting harm reduction and improving public health outcomes.

MONROE, La., Aug. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Northeast Delta Human Services Authority (NEDHSA) announces the launch of its innovative harm-reduction vending machines. These state-of-the-art machines are designed to provide critical resources and support to individuals at risk of substance abuse, promoting harm reduction and improving public health outcomes.

With the alarming rise in substance abuse and related health issues across the region, NEDHSA has taken a proactive approach to combat this crisis. The harm-reduction vending machines are an innovative solution to bridge the gap between vulnerable populations and the necessary resources to promote safer practices. By making essential harm-reduction tools readily available, NEDHSA aims to minimize the risks associated with substance abuse and promote a healthier community.

NEDHSA Executive Director Dr. Monteic A. Sizer said, “Our harm-reduction vending machines represent a critical step forward in addressing the challenges posed by substance abuse in our community.”

“We believe in meeting individuals where they are and providing them with the tools and resources they need to make healthier choices,” Dr. Sizer said. “Through this innovative initiative, we hope to save lives, reduce harm, and create a pathway to recovery.”

The first vending machine placement will be in the Phoenix Peer Support Center at 722 Adams Street, Monroe, LA 71201. The items placed in the machine are Narcan, Deterra, Fentanyl test strips, Rapid HIV tests, Pregnancy tests, Safe Sex Kits, Needle Cleaning Kits, Hygiene Kits, Wound Care Kits, and Period Packs.

The placement of this vending machine is in line with regional, state, and national harm reduction models. The primary goal is to save lives and protect the health of people who use drugs and those they interact with regionally. In addition to preventing drug-related deaths, NEDHSA’s vending machine strategy will help facilitate access to healthcare, social services, and treatment.

There is no cost associated with accessing any of the products, and it is free and open to the public to use. Those who wish to utilize the machine will also be provided confidential 1:1 peer-to-peer support on using all items.

NEDHSA recognizes that addiction is a complex issue that requires a multifaceted approach. These harm-reduction vending machines are just one component of a comprehensive strategy that includes counseling, education, and community outreach. By combining these efforts, NEDHSA aims to reduce the transmission of bloodborne infections, prevent overdose deaths, and foster a supportive environment for individuals seeking recovery.

Dr. Sizer added: “As I continue to say, our current drug and opioid crisis will only be mitigated when we learn how to effectively work across race, class, governmental silos, and political divisions. Additionally, various addictions will be mitigated once we develop enough compassion for those addicted and get them the evidence-based treatment they need, work to reduce those negative social determinants that drive their addiction, and help the people addicted to illicit substances find something to live for other than drugs. We intend to hold those addicted to substances accountable for their decisions and to help them heal through evidence-based strategies as well.”

The best heart rate for burning fat differs for each individual and often does not align with the “fat burning zone” on commercial exercise machines, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai researchers report. Instead, the researchers said, clinical exercise testing—a diagnostic procedure to measure a person’s physiological response to exercise—may be a more useful tool to help individuals achieve intended fat loss goals. The study, which used a machine learning-based modeling approach, was published online today in Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Disease.

NEW YORK, Aug. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The best heart rate for burning fat differs for each individual and often does not align with the “fat burning zone” on commercial exercise machines, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai researchers report.

Instead, the researchers said, clinical exercise testing—a diagnostic procedure to measure a person’s physiological response to exercise—may be a more useful tool to help individuals achieve intended fat loss goals. The study, which used a machine learning-based modeling approach, was published online today in Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Disease.

“People with a goal of weight or fat loss may be interested in exercising at the intensity which allows for the maximal rate of fat burning. Most commercial exercise machines offer a ‘fat-burning zone’ option, depending upon age, sex, and heart rate,” says lead author Hannah Kittrell, MS, RD, CDN, a PhD candidate at Icahn Mount Sinai in the Augmented Intelligence in Medicine and Science laboratory. “However, the typically recommended fat-burning zone has not been validated, thus individuals may be exercising at intensities that are not aligned with their personalized weight loss goals.”

Ms. Kittrell is also Director of the Mount Sinai Physiolab, a clinical body composition and exercise physiology laboratory at Mount Sinai Morningside.

The term FATmax is sometimes used to represent the exercise intensity and associated heart rate at which the body reaches its highest fat-burning rate during aerobic exercise. At this point, fat is a significant fuel source and therefore this intensity may be of interest to those seeking to optimize fat loss during workouts.

As part of the study, the researchers compared heart rate at FATmax, as measured during a clinical exercise test, to predicted heart rate at percentages of maximal effort within the typically recommended “fat-burning zone.” In a sample of 26 individuals, the researchers found that there was poor agreement between measured and predicted heart rate, with a mean difference of 23 beats per minute between the two measures. This suggests that general recommendations for a “fat-burning zone” may not provide accurate guidance.

Next, the researchers plan to study whether individuals who receive a more personalized exercise prescription demonstrate more weight and fat loss, as well as improvement of metabolic health markers that identify health risks like type 2 diabetes, obesity, and heart disease.

“We hope that this work will inspire more individuals and trainers to utilize clinical exercise testing to prescribe personalized exercise routines tailored to fat loss. It also emphasizes the role that data-driven approaches can have toward precision exercise,” says senior author Girish Nadkarni, MD, MPH, Irene and Dr. Arthur M. Fishberg Professor of Medicine at Icahn Mount Sinai, Director of The Charles Bronfman Institute of Personalized Medicine, and System Chief, Division of Data-Driven and Digital Medicine, Department of Medicine.

The paper is titled “Discrepancy between predicted and measured exercise intensity for eliciting the maximal rate of lipid oxidation.”
