| ADHD features in childhood linked to mood disorders in adulthood Posted: 21 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder features in childhood are associated with mood disorders in adulthood, research shows. |
| Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors reduced in smokers with schizophrenia Posted: 21 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Results from a US study show that patients with schizophrenia who are smokers have significantly less β2*-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor availability in the brain than mentally healthy smokers. |
| Doubt cast on epinephrine benefits in cardiac arrest Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Use of epinephrine may worsen outcomes in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, despite increasing their chances for return of spontaneous circulation, show findings published in JAMA. |
| Antiplatelet benefits ‘uncertain’ in chronic kidney disease Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Antiplatelet treatment may do more harm than good in patients with acute coronary syndromes or those undergoing percutaneous coronary revascularization who also have chronic kidney disease, show results of a systematic review and meta-analysis. |
| Nonphysician health workers can identify Indian villagers at CVD risk Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Nonphysician health worker-led clinical interventions in Indian villages could increase the number of individuals identified as being at high risk for cardiovascular disease, a study suggests. |
| Vitamin E does not affect women’s heart failure risk Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Vitamin E supplementation has no effect on women's risk for developing heart failure, US researchers say. |
| Diabetes care below average for patients in Brazil Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Study findings from Brazil show that a significant proportion of patients with diabetes do not meet metabolic control goals and are not screened for diabetic complications, which may increase their risk for chronic long-term disease. |
| Gastrointestinal abnormalities linked to diabetes Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Patients with diabetes and high levels of glycated hemoglobin have a higher prevalence of endoscopic abnormalities than the general population, despite having lower rates of gastrointestinal symptoms, report Taiwanese researchers. |
| Lipid accumulation better than BMI for predicting hypertension in males Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Study findings suggest that lipid accumulation product – a combined measurement of waist circumference and triglycerides – is better for predicting prevalent hypertension in males than body mass index. |
| Latest PSA data supports screening Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Screening men for prostate-specific antigen significantly reduces their long-term risk for death from prostate cancer, shows an updated analysis of the European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer. |
| Retinopathy associated with cognitive impairment in older women Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Retinopathy may be a useful marker of cognitive decline in older women, suggest study findings. |
| Arrhythmia, stroke risk revealed for rheumatoid arthritis patients Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Patients with rheumatoid arthritis should be assessed for arrhythmia, Danish researchers say on finding a significantly increased risk for atrial fibrillation and stroke in this population. |
| Antiplatelet benefits ‘uncertain’ in chronic kidney disease Posted: 20 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Antiplatelet treatment may do more harm than good in patients with acute coronary syndromes or those undergoing percutaneous coronary revascularization who also have chronic kidney disease, show results of a systematic review and meta-analysis. |
