| Anti-endothelial cell antibodies increased in COPD Posted: 08 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease have increased levels of anti-endothelial cell antibodies, research shows. |
| DRD2 gene variant linked to mood disorders Posted: 08 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Results from a systematic review and meta-analysis confirm an association between a variant of the dopamine D2 receptor gene and an increased risk for mood disorders. |
| Schizophrenia patients show altered delta wave patterns during sleep Posted: 08 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Patients with schizophrenia show lower overall delta wave counts and altered delta wave dominance in certain brain regions during all-night sleep compared with mentally healthy individuals, say researchers. |
| Curative local therapy may be underused in older prostate cancer patients Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Disease-specific survival rates for prostate cancer vary among men of different ages partly because potentially curative therapy is underused among older patients, study results suggest. |
| Long-term benefits of radiotherapy confirmed for DCIS Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Radiotherapy significantly reduces the long-term risk for new ipsilateral breast cancers in women who have undergone surgery for ductal carcinoma in situ, study results confirm. |
| Diabetics diagnosed using HbA1c versus glucose have higher CVD risk Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Patients with Type 2 diabetes newly diagnosed using internationally accepted glycated hemoglobin targets have a higher cardiovascular disease risk profile compared with those diagnosed using fasting plasma glucose, say researchers. |
| Reversal of CVD risk factor clustering is possible Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Japanese researchers suggest that lifestyle or medical interventions may be able to reverse clustering of cardiovascular disease risk factors in the general population. |
| Angptl4 protects against severe effects of saturated fat-induced inflammation Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Dutch researchers have found that a lipoprotein lipase inhibitor protects against the pro-inflammatory effects of dietary saturated fat in mice, through inhibition of fatty acid uptake into mesenteric lymph node macrophages. |
| Diabetics diagnosed using HbA1c versus glucose have higher CVD risk Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Patients with Type 2 diabetes newly diagnosed using internationally accepted glycated hemoglobin targets have a higher cardiovascular disease risk profile compared with those diagnosed using fasting plasma glucose, say researchers. |
| Exenatide addition to insulin lowers glucose and weight in Type 2 diabetes Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Study results show that adding exenatide to insulin glargine for the treatment of patients with uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes is effective for achieving good glycemic control and weight loss. |
| Multidetector computed tomography CAD diagnosis less accurate in diabetics Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Significant coronary artery disease is detected in diabetics with high sensitivity using multidetector computed tomography, although diagnostic yield is significantly better in non-diabetic patients, say Italian researchers. |
| Tobacco cessation treatment linked to reduction in MI hospitalizations Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST The results of a US study demonstrate a reduction in hospitalization rates for myocardial infarction (MI) in the US state of Massachusetts, which may be linked to a concurrent increase in use of tobacco cessation medications |
| Race, geography, gender affect hypertension risk Posted: 07 Dec 2010 04:00 PM PST Black individuals living in south-eastern USA are at increased risk for hypertension, especially if they are female, results from a US community-based study indicate. |
