| Home dampness strongest modifiable risk factor for infant wheeze Posted: 20 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST Wheezing in the first year of life is mainly associated with markers of atopic susceptibility, although the strongest modifiable risk factor for wheeze at this age is dampness in the home, research shows. |
| H1N1 flu unlikely to have been spread by birds Posted: 20 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST The two strains of the H1N1 influenza that were responsible for the 1918 and 2009 global flu pandemics do not cause disease in birds and were unlikely to have been spread by birds, study results suggest. |
| ‘Prudent’ dietary pattern may benefit lung function Posted: 20 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST A 'prudent' dietary pattern may help protect against lung function decline and the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, particularly in men who smoke, study findings suggest. |
| Functional improvement in schizophrenia treatment is not delayed Posted: 20 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST Researchers have found that improvement in functional outcomes in response to antipsychotic treatment is not delayed in schizophrenia patients relative to improvement in psychiatric symptoms. |
| Better recognition of eating disorders in bipolar disorder patients needed Posted: 20 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST Study findings highlight the need for clinicians to recognize comorbid eating disorders in patients with bipolar disorder. |
| Cognitively impaired elderly women receive unnecessary screening mammography Posted: 19 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST Nearly one-fifth of elderly US women who are severely cognitively impaired receive a screening mammography despite a lack of probable benefit due to their limited life expectancy, researchers report. |
| ERG-fusion biomarkers could be future targets for prostate cancer therapy Posted: 19 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST Expression of TMPRSS2–ERG gene fusion in prostate cancer patients is highly associated with biochemical recurrence, confirm researchers who also identified messenger RNAs with potential clinical application. |
| Statin-induced CRP reduction ‘may not be pleiotropic effect’ Posted: 19 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST Administration of either simvastatin or ezetimibe to dyslipidemic individuals appears to improve both lipid profiles and C-reactive protein levels, show results of a small Greek study. |
| HMW adiponectin is low in women with PCOS Posted: 19 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST High molecular weight adiponectin concentration is low in women with polycystic ovary syndrome independently of body mass index and insulin resistance, report researchers. |
| First Nations people in Canada have very high rates of Type 2 diabetes Posted: 19 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST First Nation aboriginal people from Canada have a disproportionately high level of Type 2 diabetes compared with non-First Nation people, report researchers. |
| Research reveals genetic variants linked to Type 2 diabetes Posted: 19 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST The results of two meta-analyses published in Nature Genetics have identified new genetic variants associated with the risk for Type 2 diabetes and modest elevations in blood glucose. |
| Varenicline appears effective, well-tolerated smoking cessation aid in stable CAD Posted: 19 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST Varenicline is effective and well tolerated for smoking cessation in smokers with stable coronary heart disease, a study suggests. |
| Dementia, mobility strong predictors of mortality in elderly with HF Posted: 19 Jan 2010 04:00 PM PST Geriatric conditions, specifically dementia and mobility, are strong independent predictors of short- and long-term mortality in elderly patients hospitalized with heart failure, US research shows. |
