Study Uses Video Games to Fight Obesity

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- Like many 11-year-old boys, K.D. Jones loves sports. But at 5 feet, 175 pounds, he found his weight and the asthma it caused an obstacle to enjoying many activities. His doctor wanted him to lose 50 pounds, and he's hoping a new health study using video games to fight obesity will help him get down to 125 by the end of summer in time to play football.

<b>Dacron, Plastic And A Sewing Machine</b><p>
On this date in 1969, noted physician Michael E. DeBakey implanted the world's first completely artificial heart in a patient at Houston's Baylor University. The heart was made of Dacron and plastic and its recipient lived four days. Years earlier, in 1953, DeBakey had first developed artificial arteries made of Dacron, using a sewing machine to stitch them together. He performed 12 heart transplants in the late 1960s.   In 1968, he oversaw the first organ transplants involving more than one organ; a heart, two kidneys and a lung from a single donor were transplanted into four separate recipients. </p>
