| NSAID use in elderly with hypertension linked to increased cardiac risk Posted: 17 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Chronic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use among elderly hypertensive patients with coronary artery disease leads to increased mortality, myocardial infarction, and stroke, research suggests. |
| NSAID use in elderly with hypertension linked to increased cardiac risk Posted: 17 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Chronic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use among elderly hypertensive patients with coronary artery disease leads to increased mortality, myocardial infarction, and stroke, research suggests. |
| IL-17 may mediate antipsychotic benefits in schizophrenia Posted: 14 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Antipsychotic agents may act by increasing production of the cytokine interleukin-17, say German researchers, who add that the findings support the proposed involvement of the immune system in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. |
| Amygdala activation linked to bipolar disorder risk Posted: 14 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Individuals at risk for developing bipolar disorder may have increased activation in the left amygdala that suggests a heritable endophenotype, say UK researchers, who also found potential subclinical indicators of illness that are not linked to familial risk. |
| Advancing paternal age raises schizophrenia risk Posted: 13 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Increasing paternal age is associated with a significantly increased risk for developing schizophrenia in large families, say Iranian researchers who call for further study of the interaction between the environment and specific genotypes in severe illness. |
| Gamma band brain responses ‘not bipolar endophenotypes’ Posted: 13 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Evoked gamma band responses are heritable traits but are not altered in bipolar disorder patients and do not therefore represent bipolar disorder endophenotypes, says an international team of researchers. |
| Psychosis risk substantially increased by childhood sexual abuse Posted: 12 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Children who suffer sexual abuse before the age of 16 have an increased risk for developing psychosis, say UK researchers who note that their findings highlight opportunities for the targeted prevention of mental illness. |
| Education program improves bipolar management in primary care Posted: 12 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Primary care physicians who are trained in the diagnosis and management of bipolar disorder are more likely than untrained physicians correctly to identify bipolar subtypes in their patients, say French researchers. |
| Poor prognosis for schizophrenia patients leaving hospital against medical advice Posted: 11 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Schizophrenia patients discharged from hospital against medical advice are more likely to be readmitted and die from suicide attempts and accidents than are patients discharged on physician recommendation, Israeli study findings indicate. |
| Antihypertensive combination lessens new-onset diabetes risk Posted: 11 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT The risk for new-onset diabetes in hypertensive patients with the metabolic syndrome is significantly lower among those treated with the combination of an angiotensin receptor blocker and a calcium channel blocker than those treated with an ARB combined with thiazide diuretic, research suggests. |
| Trait impulsivity linked to suicide attempts in bipolar disorder Posted: 11 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Trait impulsivity in bipolar disorder is associated with a series of unfavorable disease characteristics at presentation, including prior suicide attempts, say Turkish researchers. |
