| Asthma, asthma medications linked to prostate cancer risk Posted: 08 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Men with asthma and those who have used asthma medications, particularly systemic glucocorticoids, are at increased risk for developing prostate cancer, results from an Australian study suggest. |
| Two visits enough to confirm asthma diagnosis Posted: 08 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT In most patients with previously diagnosed asthma, pre- and post-bronchodilator spirometry and a single methacholine challenge test performed during two visits are enough to confirm the diagnosis, say researchers. |
| PR benefits cachectic COPD patients Posted: 08 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Cachectic patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease gain significant benefits from undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation, research shows. |
| Esophageal acid exposure site may alter salivation and heartburn Posted: 08 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Heartburn severity and the flow of saliva alter according to the site of acid exposure in the esophagus, study findings indicate. |
| Timely outpatient treatment for schizophrenia ‘lacking’ Posted: 05 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Results from a US study show that more than 40% of schizophrenia patients receiving Medicaid do not receive timely outpatient treatment after discharge from hospital. |
| Processing speed linked to functioning in bipolar patients Posted: 05 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Processing speed is associated with social and global functioning, and work functioning is linked to depression, illness course, and verbal learning in patients with bipolar disorder, research shows. |
| Antipsychotic treatment increases regional synchronous neural activity Posted: 04 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Antipsychotic treatment is associated with increased regional synchronous neural activity and decreased integration of function across widely distributed neural networks in patients with first-episode schizophrenia, researchers report. |
| Cannabis use linked to earlier age at schizophrenia and bipolar disorder onset Posted: 04 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT A lifetime history of cannabis use is associated with an earlier age at disease onset among patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, researchers have found. |
| Chilli pepper ingredient may reduce BP Posted: 04 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Consumption of capsaicin, an ingredient in chilli peppers, causes blood vessel relaxation and lowers high blood pressure in rats, Chinese researchers report. |
| Cannabis use linked to earlier age at schizophrenia and bipolar disorder onset Posted: 04 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT A lifetime history of cannabis use is associated with an earlier age at disease onset among patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, researchers have found. |
| Intense religious experiences unlikely to result in chronic mental illness Posted: 03 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Intense religious experiences may result in brief episodes of psychosis, but are unlikely to lead to chronic mental illness, UK research suggests. |
| Eating disorders common in bipolar patients Posted: 03 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Eating disorders affect around one in seven patients with bipolar disorder, are more common in women, and are associated with an earlier age of onset and a more severe course of illness, US study results suggest. |
| Body movement linked to schizophrenia symptom severity Posted: 02 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Results from a Swiss study show a significant correlation between objective body movement parameters during social interaction and severity of negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia. |
| Outpatient performance intervention improves HF care Posted: 02 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT The use of a new practice-specific performance intervention improves physician adherence to guideline-recommended therapies for heart failure in an outpatient setting, a US study suggests. |
| Average earnings significantly affected by serious mental illness Posted: 02 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT Results from a survey conducted by the World Health Organization in low-, middle-, and high-income countries show that people with serious mental health disorders earn, on average, one third less than people without mental health issues. |
