| Swallowing abnormalities linked to increased COPD exacerbations Posted: 08 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Swallowing abnormalities are common in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and are associated with an increased frequency of exacerbations, say Japanese researchers. |
| Increased FeNO predicts new-onset wheeze Posted: 08 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Increased fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is associated with an increased risk for new-onset wheeze in the general population, research shows. |
| Estrogen-only HRT may increase asthma risk after menopause Posted: 08 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Postmenopausal women who take estrogen-only hormone replacement therapy may face an increased risk for developing asthma, study results suggest. |
| Early perceptual processing affects higher outcomes in schizophrenia Posted: 08 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST A measure of early perceptual processing is associated with work, independent living, and social perception in patients with schizophrenia, say US scientists in findings that support cascade models of information processing. |
| Low healthcare engagement in bipolar patients who drive under the influence Posted: 08 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Persistent driving under the influence offenders with bipolar disorder have high rates of comorbid mental conditions and have little engagement with the healthcare system, the results of a US study indicate. |
| Gastric ulcers linked to increased risk for pancreatic cancer Posted: 08 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Researchers have found that gastric ulcers are associated with an increased risk for pancreatic cancer, suggesting that N-nitrosamine formation may be an important mechanism in pancreatic carcinogenesis. |
| Stenting effective for symptomatic vertebral artery disease Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Endovascular stenting is a relatively low-risk treatment option for patients with symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis, report US researchers. |
| Men undergoing radiotherapy for prostate cancer risk chronic fatigue Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST A significantly larger proportion of prostate cancer patients treated with definitive radiotherapy report chronic fatigue 1 year after treatment than their radical prostatectomy-treated counterparts, report researchers. |
| Prostate surgery patients could go home on same day as surgery Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Results of a US feasibility study show that robot-assisted radical prostatectomy can be undertaken as an outpatient procedure with no adverse consequences for patient satisfaction or safety. |
| Fibronectin 1 and CXCL9 candidate biomarkers for breast cancer screening Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Gene expression profiling has identified fibronectin 1 and chemokine ligand 9 as candidate biomarkers for breast cancer screening, French researchers report. |
| Whole-grain oat cereal consumption reduces lipids and waist circumference Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Consumption of a whole-grain, ready-to-eat oat cereal containing a viscous fiber as part of a weight-loss program is effective for reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and waist circumference, report researchers. |
| HDL shows metabolic, anti-inflammatory effects in adipose tissue Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST High-density lipoprotein cholesterol influences adipocyte metabolism and the expression of adiponectin, animal research indicates. |
| Closed-loop system reduces nocturnal hypoglycemia in children with Type 1 diabetes Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Use of a closed-loop insulin delivery system in children and adolescents with Type 1 diabetes improves glycemic control and reduces the risk for nocturnal hypoglycemia, report researchers. |
| AMI management differs in diabetic and nondiabetic patients Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Patients with diabetes who suffer acute myocardial infarction are less likely than their nondiabetic counterparts to undergo coronary angioplasty, a study by French researchers suggests. |
| CRP ‘modest’ predictor 30-day mortality in ACS Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST C-reactive protein is a modest but independent predictor of 30-day mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome, and enables improved risk classification if combined with the GRACE risk score, French researchers conclude. |
| Gout signals high MI risk in women Posted: 07 Feb 2010 04:00 PM PST Women with gout are at higher risk for myocardial infarction than are men with the disease, shows a Canadian population-based cohort study. |
