| Activated coagulation assay could rule in DVT diagnosis Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Study findings suggest that a novel marker of activated coagulation, in combination with D-dimer testing, could be used to help rule in a diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis. |

| One in five not receiving statins after US hospital discharge for stroke Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT One in five eligible stroke patients is still being discharged from US hospitals without statin treatment, although prescription rates have been improving, research suggests. |
| Adalimumab effective following an unsatisfactory etanercept response Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Adalimumab is an effective treatment option for patients with plaque psoriasis who have not shown an adequate response or have lost their response to etanercept after a dose decrease, say researchers. |
| Common PSA parameters are unsatisfactory treatment triggers during AS Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Canadian research results show that current prostate-specific antigen parameters used to monitor men under active surveillance for low-risk prostate cancer may result in an unacceptably high level of treatment intervention. |
| Breast cancer patients with HCV can be treated with cytotoxic therapy Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Patients with breast cancer and chronic hepatitis C virus infection can be treated effectively with cytotoxic chemotherapy, US researchers have found. |
| Common PSA parameters are unsatisfactory treatment triggers during AS Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Canadian research results show that current prostate-specific antigen parameters used to monitor men under active surveillance for low-risk prostate cancer may result in an unacceptably high level of treatment intervention. |
| Statin preloading may improve long-term PCI outcomes Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT High-dose rosuvastatin loading before percutaneous coronary intervention is associated with improved clinical outcomes at 12 months, a study of patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome has found. |
| Study finds no link between low cholesterol and depression Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Newly published research appears to refute any connection between low cholesterol levels and depression in cardiac patients. |
| One in five not receiving statins after US hospital discharge for stroke Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT One in five eligible stroke patients is still being discharged from US hospitals without statin treatment, although prescription rates have been improving, research suggests. |
| Group medical clinics improve BP but not HbA1c in hypertensive diabetics Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Group medical clinics help to reduce blood pressure in patients with Type 2 diabetes and hypertension when compared with usual care, report researchers. |
| Low-dose rosiglitazone plus metformin prevents Type 2 diabetes in at-risk patients Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Low-dose combination therapy with rosiglitazone and metformin is effective for preventing the onset of Type 2 diabetes in patients with impaired glucose tolerance, show results from the CANOE trial. |
| Coronary intervention patients fare better in high-volume centers Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention in a high-volume hospital have lower in-hospital mortality than those treated at low-volume hospitals, finds a meta-analysis. |
| ACE inhibitor benefit in ACS may depend on NT-proBNP elevation Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Treating acute coronary syndrome patients with an ACE inhibitor is beneficial only among those with the most marked elevations in plasma N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, an observational study suggests. |
| Breast cancer patients with HCV can be treated with cytotoxic therapy Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Patients with breast cancer and chronic hepatitis C virus infection can be treated effectively with cytotoxic chemotherapy, US researchers have found. |
| Volatile anesthetics may impair late diastolic LV filling Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Volatile anesthetics do not impair early diastolic relaxation in healthy people without cardiac disease, but do reduce global atrial function, say Swiss researchers. |
| Lung recruitment, positive airway pressure do not avert atelectasis Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Lung recruitment maneuver followed by positive airway pressure until extubation does not reduce the risk for atelectasis, show results of a small randomized trial. |
| Implicit memory formation ‘unlikely’ in pediatric anesthesia Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT Children are very unlikely to form implicit memories while under general anesthesia, show randomized trial results. |
| Delayed tracheotomy recommended in ICU patients Posted: 03 Jun 2010 05:00 PM PDT The timing of tracheotomy does not appear to affect the risk for ventilator-associated pneumonia in intensive care unit patients requiring mechanical ventilation, report researchers. |
