| Diagnostic model identifies H1N1 influenza-related pneumonia Posted: 08 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST A diagnostic model based on five clinical criteria effectively distinguishes H1N1 influenza-related pneumonia from interpandemic community-acquired pneumonia, researchers report. |
| Multiple childhood traumas increase later risk for psychosis Posted: 08 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Multiple traumatic experiences in childhood, rather than exposure to a single disaster, increase the risk for psychotic symptoms in early adulthood, results from an Australian study show. |
| International prevalence and correlates of bipolar disorder elucidated Posted: 08 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST The prevalence of bipolar spectrum disorder varies between countries, with the highest rates in the USA and the lowest in India, show results from a World Health Organization study. |
| Computed tomography enterography improves Crohn’s disease management Posted: 08 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST The use of computed tomography enterography imaging to investigate patients with suspected or established Crohn's disease would result in changes being made to around half of management plans, results from a US study indicate. |
| DVT uncommon but dangerous immediately after stroke Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Deep vein thrombosis is uncommon in the first 2 weeks after a stroke, but is associated with significantly increased 3-month mortality when it occurs, Polish researchers report. |
| DVT uncommon but dangerous immediately after stroke Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Deep vein thrombosis is uncommon in the first 2 weeks after a stroke, but is associated with significantly increased 3-month mortality when it occurs, Polish researchers report. |
| Subtherapeutic warfarin cleared of thrombolysis harm Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Warfarin use may not pose an additional risk for hemorrhage in stroke patients undergoing thrombolysis, as long as their international normalized ratios are subtherapeutic, research suggests. |
| Eribulin prolongs advanced breast cancer survival Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Eribulin significantly improves overall survival among women with heavily pretreated metastatic breast cancer, compared with routinely available cytotoxic therapy, results from the EMBRACE study show. |
| Timing and potency of statin treatment important during MI Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Brazilian researchers say that both the timing and dose of statin treatment are vital to achieve a satisfactory effect on inflammatory responses and endothelial function during acute phase myocardial infarction. |
| LDL cholesterol linked to increased coronary risk in Japanese Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol are related to risk for coronary heart disease and myocardial infarction in the Japanese population, study findings indicate. |
| Psychological assessment tool shows initial promise Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST A computerized tool for assessing the psychological needs of diabetes patients has demonstrated both feasibility and practical value, a multinational research team reports in the journal Diabetes Care. |
| Pioglitazone-based therapy aids CV risk control in Type 2 diabetes Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Pioglitazone in combination with either metformin or a sulfonylurea is an effective second-line therapy for the control of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with Type 2 diabetes, trial results suggest. |
| 2D echo helps predict AF recurrence after ablation Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Assessing left atrium size and fibrosis by two-dimensional echocardiography may help to identify atrial fibrillation patients who are good candidates for radiofrequency catheter ablation, study results suggest. |
| Side effect fears may limit elderly patients’ adherence to CV drugs Posted: 07 Mar 2011 04:00 PM PST Older patients place greater importance on a cardiovascular drug's potential side effects than on its benefits when deciding if they will take the drug, say US researchers. |
