Cardiac rehabilitation after MI may not improve outcomes Posted: 04 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST Cardiac rehabilitation after myocardial infarction may not improve mortality, morbidity, or quality of life, suggest UK researchers.

High-fat meals increase inflammatory risk in diabetes Posted: 04 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST Eating a meal rich in saturated fatty acids increases circulating endotoxin levels in diabetic individuals to a much greater extent than has previously been understood, show researchers.

Isoflavones may reduce endometrial cancer risk Posted: 04 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST High intake of isoflavone-containing foods may be associated with a reduced risk for endometrial cancer in postmenopausal women, US study data show.

APSs linked to increased risk for psychiatric disorders Posted: 04 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST People who experience attenuated psychotic symptoms are at increased risk for developing psychiatric disorders, particularly nonaffective psychotic disorders, study findings confirm.

Cyclothymic–depressive–anxious temperament increases suicide risk in BD patients Posted: 04 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST Mood disorder patients with a prevailing cyclothymic–depressive–anxious temperament are at increased risk for suicidal behaviour, say researchers.

Silent strokes contribute to memory decline Posted: 04 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST Both subclinical strokes and neurodegenerative changes in the hippocampus contribute to memory loss, research suggests.

Enoxaparin does not reduce mortality in acutely ill medical patients Posted: 04 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST Pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis with the low molecular weight heparin enoxaparin does not reduce mortality among hospitalized acutely ill medical patients already using elastic stockings with compression, study findings indicate.

Proliferative diabetic retinopathy linked to CAD risk in Japanese patients Posted: 03 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST Proliferative diabetic retinopathy may be a marker for coronary artery disease in Japanese individuals with Type 2 diabetes, suggest study findings.

Statins less beneficial in CAD with comorbid polyvascular disease Posted: 03 Jan 2012 04:00 PM PST Statin treatment for coronary artery disease may be less effective in patients with comorbid polyvascular disease, suggests research showing a milder regression of coronary atherosclerosis in patients with both conditions.
