| Non-atopic more common than atopic asthma in Latin-American children Posted: 26 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Results from a study conducted in Ecuador suggest that non-atopic asthma is more common than atopic asthma in Latin-American children. |
| Early fetal origins of respiratory disease supported Posted: 26 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Early fetal growth is linked to lung function and the development of respiratory disorders in childhood, and maternal vitamin E intake may play a role in the association, study results suggest. |
| Inhaled corticosteroids may protect against atherosclerosis Posted: 26 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Results from a Japanese study suggest that treatment with inhaled corticosteroids is associated with a reduced risk for atherosclerosis. |
| Cannabis use increases psychosis-related outcomes Posted: 26 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Researchers report evidence from a sibling pair analysis that supports the association between early cannabis use and psychosis-related outcomes. |
| Strong depression and anxiety covariation in bipolar disorder Posted: 26 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Researchers have found that anxiety is strongly and persistently associated with depressive symptoms in patients with bipolar disorder. |
| HER2 testing differs by age, race, and tumor stage Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Adherence to recommendations for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 testing in patients with breast cancer is high but is not equally applied to women of all ages and races, US researchers report. |
| Prostatectomy complications increased with prior radiotherapy Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT The likelihood of medical and surgical complications after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer is higher if patients have previously undergone radiotherapy for the disease, say US researchers. |
| Active surveillance criteria may not accurately identify low-risk prostate cancer Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT US researchers have raised concerns that active surveillance criteria for the treatment of low-risk prostate cancer may not accurately identify men with truly low-risk disease. |
| Unintended effects of statins explored Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT A study of hundreds of primary care practices in England and Wales has offered an insight into the unintended effects of statins. |
| Metabolic syndrome MI risk not greater than its constituent parts Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT The metabolic syndrome does not confer a greater risk for myocardial infarction than its component parts, research suggests. |
| Type 2 diabetics have reduced risk for prostate cancer Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Men who are hospitalized for Type 2 diabetes have a reduced risk for developing prostate cancer than men in the general population, suggest results from a Swedish study. |
| Blood glucose and HbA1c only modestly linked to CHD risk in nondiabetics Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Increased levels of fasting and post-load glucose and glycated hemoglobin only modestly increase coronary heart disease risk in nondiabetics, show results from the Reykjavik study and a meta-analysis of the literature. |
| Anti-inflammatory drug shows early promise in ACS Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT The investigational anti-inflammatory drug VIA-2291 reduces leukotriene production and prevents the formation of new coronary plaques in patients with recent acute coronary syndrome, a small, randomized trial shows. |
| Hypertension control improved over past two decades Posted: 25 May 2010 05:00 PM PDT Hypertension control has improved significantly since the late 1980s, with most of the improvement occurring after 1999, analysis of US NHANES data shows. |
