| Passive and direct smoking linked to asthma in teenagers Posted: 11 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Results from a Swedish study show that exposure to environmental tobacco smoke and personal smoking are both associated with an increased risk for asthma and wheezing in teenagers. |
| Metabolic disorder risk increased with second-generation antipsychotics Posted: 11 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Results from a Taiwanese study confirm that schizophrenia patients taking second-generation antipsychotics are at greater risk for developing diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia than those taking first-generation antipsychotics. |
| Family income linked to mood symptoms in bipolar disorder Posted: 11 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Family income is associated with self-reported mood symptoms in patients with bipolar disorder, researchers have found. |
| EGFR overexpression marks progression to cancer in BE patients Posted: 11 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Research shows that epidermal growth factor receptor overexpression is a marker of histologic progression from Barrett's esophagus to high-grade dysplasia and esophageal adenocarcinoma. |
| EGFR overexpression marks progression to cancer in BE patients Posted: 11 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Research shows that epidermal growth factor receptor overexpression is a marker of histologic progression from Barrett's esophagus to high-grade dysplasia and esophageal adenocarcinoma. |
| Thrombolysis realistic alternative to surgery for prosthetic valve thrombosis Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Thrombolysis compares favorably to surgery as a first-line treatment for patients with prosthetic valve thrombosis, Belgian researchers report. |
| Evidence mounts for benefits of SSRIs in stroke motor recovery Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST The selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine, in conjunction with physiotherapy, boosts the motor recovery of stroke patients, shows the largest randomized trial to date. |
| High cholesterol linked to increased breast cancer risk Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Elevated cholesterol levels, typical of those in a Western-style diet, may accelerate the development of breast tumors and exacerbate their aggressiveness, US researchers report. |
| Liver fat possible metabolic risk factor in obese Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Research suggests that at higher levels of obesity, the liver may be a more important pathogenic fat depot, and have a greater impact on the metabolic syndrome, than visceral fat. |
| Statins protect against major events following vascular surgery Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST French researchers say that pre-operative statin therapy may protect patients undergoing vascular surgery from major adverse postoperative events. |
| Low serum potassium linked to increased Type 2 diabetes risk Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Mild to moderately low serum potassium levels that are within the normal range may increase Type 2 diabetes risk in Japanese men, report researchers from the TOPICS program. |
| HbA1c identifies adults at high risk for Type 2 diabetes, CVD Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Use of glycated hemoglobin cutoff points could provide a simple but effective method for predicting which patients are likely to benefit most from intensive lifestyle interventions due to prediabetes or elevated cardiovascular disease risk, show study results. |
| Obese individuals may have elevated AF recurrence risk Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Obese individuals are at increased risk for left atrial enlargement, which in turn may elevate their risk for atrial fibrillation recurrence and burden, study results suggest. |
| Parental smoking raises preschoolers’ BP Posted: 10 Jan 2011 04:00 PM PST Parental smoking may raise the blood pressure levels of healthy children under the age of 5 years, researchers suggest. |
| Population characteristics explain regional CHD mortality rate variation Posted: 11 Nov 2010 04:00 PM PST Marked regional variations in coronary heart disease mortality rates currently exist across England and are primarily due to differences in population characteristics, UK researchers report. |
