| Visceral fat area ‘an important predictor of cardiometabolic risk’ Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Long-term changes in body weight are poorly correlated with changes in visceral fat area (VFA), a study of Japanese men suggests. |
| Diabetes impact on colectomy outcomes revealed Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Diabetes significantly increases the risk for poor postoperative outcomes following colectomy, especially in patients using steroids, study findings suggest. |
| Initial linagliptin plus metformin combination effective at treating diabetes Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Combination linagliptin and metformin therapy is an effective and well-tolerated first-line therapy for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, shows a study published in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism. |
| Diabetes impact on colectomy outcomes revealed Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Diabetes significantly increases the risk for poor postoperative outcomes following colectomy, especially in patients using steroids, study findings suggest. |
| Visceral fat area ‘an important predictor of cardiometabolic risk’ Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Long-term changes in body weight are poorly correlated with changes in visceral fat area (VFA), a study of Japanese men suggests. |
| Hippocampal volume linked to verbal memory performance in BD patients Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Results from a US study show that reduced hippocampal volume is associated with increased verbal memory impairment in patients with bipolar disorder. |
| GM reductions in psychotic BD patients ‘nonsignificant’ Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Gray matter volume reductions in bipolar disorder patients with psychosis are not as pronounced as those in patients with schizophrenia, results from a US study suggest. |
| Currently available antibiotics hold promise for treating drug resistant TB Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Research suggests that a combination of two currently available antibiotics – meropenem and clavulanate – may be an effective treatment for tuberculosis, particularly the hard to treat multi- and extensive-drug resistant strains of the bacterium. |
| Warfarin management in AF patients has improved Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT The rate of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation who are taking warfarin has declined in recent years, say the authors of a meta-analysis. |
| Interventional radiologists successfully treat post-thrombotic syndrome Posted: 27 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Interventional radiology treatments re-establish blood flow in people with chronic deep vein thrombosis, reducing disabling symptoms and improving the quality of life for those with post-thrombotic syndrome, US research shows. |
| Systolic BP linked to cerebrovascular complications irrespective of BMI Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Elevated systolic blood pressure is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, and both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, irrespective of body mass index, suggest study results. |
| CCTA strategy allows nearly half of patients to go home Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Coronary computed tomographic angiography allows the "safe," expedited discharge of low-to-intermediate-risk patients who present with possible acute coronary syndrome, a study shows. |
| Mineral metabolism disrupted in CKD patients with diabetes Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Disordered mineral metabolism is more severe and develops earlier in the course of chronic kidney disease in patients with diabetes than it does in those without diabetes, report US researchers. |
| Urinary tubular markers linked to albuminuria in diabetic nephropathy Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Urine levels of tubular markers may be associated with albuminuria in the early stage of diabetic nephropathy, report researchers. |
| Transthyretin levels may indicate CVD risk Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Findings from a Spanish study suggest that serum transthyretin levels are inversely correlated with cardiovascular disease risk. |
| CAC scoring improves CVD event prediction Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Coronary artery calcium scoring improves cardiovascular disease event risk stratification in individuals with no history of such events, study findings show. |
| Systolic BP linked to cerebrovascular complications irrespective of BMI Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Elevated systolic blood pressure is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, and both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, irrespective of body mass index, suggest study results. |
| Affective lability may distinguish BPD from bipolar disorder patients Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Patients with bipolar disorder differ from those with borderline personality disorder regarding patterns of affective lability, US researchers report. |
| Cognitive impairments linked to oxidative stress in psychosis patients Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Results from a Spanish study suggest that peripheral biomarkers of oxidative stress and inflammation can predict cognitive function in patients with first-episode psychosis. |
| COPD audit highlights inequalities in care Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT The quality of care for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease varies significantly both within and between European countries, show results of the first-ever European audit of COPD care. |
| Systolic BP linked to cerebrovascular complications irrespective of BMI Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:00 PM PDT Elevated systolic blood pressure is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, and both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, irrespective of body mass index, suggest study results. |
