Fever may lower chances of good stroke thrombolysis outcome Posted: 20 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Body temperatures within the normal range do not compromise the efficacy of intravenous thrombolysis treatment in patients with ischemic stroke, shows an analysis of VISTA.

Symptom remission common in early course of schizophrenia Posted: 20 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT A significant minority of schizophrenia patients achieve symptom remission in the early course of illness, but recovery is much less common, research shows.

Hypersomnia may predict depressive symptoms in bipolar disorder patients Posted: 20 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Hypersomnia among bipolar disorder patients who are in an inter-episode period may predict future depressive symptoms, results from a US study suggest.

Low adiponectin levels associated with arterial stiffening Posted: 20 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Plasma adiponectin levels are associated with increased arterial stiffness in individuals with high blood pressure, research shows.

OPERA trial testing omega-3 FAs for AF coming soon Posted: 20 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT A trial is expected to shed light on whether a simple, inexpensive treatment can reduce the risk for atrial fibrillation and flutter following cardiac surgery.

Erythrocyte fatty acid composition linked with hypertension Posted: 19 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT A US study suggests that erythrocyte fatty acid composition may be important in the development of hypertension.

Triglyceride/HDL cholesterol linked to insulin resistance in White youths Posted: 19 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT The ratio of triglycerides to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol is associated with insulin resistance in obese White youths, research shows.

Triglyceride/HDL cholesterol linked to insulin resistance in White youths Posted: 19 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT The ratio of triglycerides to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol is associated with insulin resistance in obese White youths, research shows.

Low MBL genotype linked to CVD risk in Type 2 diabetics Posted: 19 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Low mannose-binding lectin genotype appears to be associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular events in individuals with Type 2 diabetes, say Dutch researchers.

Proliferative retinopathy predicts nephropathy in Type 1 diabetics Posted: 19 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Patients with Type 1 diabetes who also have proliferative retinopathy are more likely to develop nephropathy than those without proliferative retinopathy, show study findings.

Stress cardiomyopathy affects more diverse spectrum of patients than previously thought Posted: 19 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Researchers report that stress cardiomyopathy, a transient form of acute heart failure, has a much broader clinical profile than previously thought.

Married men seek earlier care for AMI Posted: 19 Jul 2011 05:00 PM PDT Married men experiencing chest pain symptomatic of acute myocardial infarction seek care earlier than do single men, whereas no such association is seen in women, Canadian researchers reveal.
