| Hippocampal volume not altered in youth with BD Posted: 04 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Results from a Turkish study suggest that there are no significant differences in hippocampal volume between adolescents with and without bipolar disorder. |
| Outcomes similar in early- and adult-onset psychosis Posted: 04 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Results from a Norwegian study suggest that there is no significant difference in 2-year outcome between patients with adolescent- and adult-onset first-episode, non-affective psychosis. |
| Targeted LV lead placement improves CRT outcomes Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Speckle-tracking echocardiography to the target left ventricular lead placement yields a significantly improved response compared with standard cardiac resynchronization therapy, researchers say. |
| No link between menopause and AF Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Menopausal age is not significantly associated with risk for atrial fibrillation, shows a subanalysis of the Framingham Heart Study. |
| Lifestyle intervention reduces mobility loss in diabetes Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Intensive lifestyle intervention leads to a significant reduction in the severity of mobility-related disability compared with diabetes support and education, show findings from a US study. |
| Sequential CRC screening strategy ‘addresses patient preferences’ Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Offering a sequential choice of colorectal cancer tests may improve patient uptake of screening, suggests research published in Gut. |
| Non-HDL cholesterol ‘strong predictor’ of cerebrovascular events post-MI Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Study findings suggest that non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol should be considered a primary therapeutic target in patients at high risk for cerebrovascular disease. |
| No link between menopause and AF Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Menopausal age is not significantly associated with risk for atrial fibrillation, shows a subanalysis of the Framingham Heart Study. |
| Sequential CRC screening strategy ‘addresses patient preferences’ Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Offering a sequential choice of colorectal cancer tests may improve patient uptake of screening, suggests research published in Gut. |
| No link found between metal-on-metal hip replacement and cancer risk Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT A study commissioned by the National Joint Registry of England and Wales may reassure patients who may have concerns regarding the safety of their metal-on-metal hip replacements. |
| Patients with ADHD plus BD show altered neural circuitry Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Patients who meet criteria for both attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and bipolar disorder exhibit reduced activity in brain regions associated with working memory, research shows. |
| Antidepressant use common in schizophrenia patients Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Around 40% of patients with schizophrenia have been prescribed an antidepressant medication, despite a lack of evidence supporting their effectiveness in this patient group, say researchers. |
| Exposure to fungal spores in home increases asthma risk Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Results from a French study confirm an association between exposure to fungal spores in the home and asthma or bronchitis-like symptoms, particularly in rural areas. |
| Non-HDL cholesterol ‘strong predictor’ of cerebrovascular events post-MI Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Study findings suggest that non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol should be considered a primary therapeutic target in patients at high risk for cerebrovascular disease. |
| SITS-ISTR delivers intracerebral hemorrhage risk score Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Researchers have used data from the Safe Implementation of Treatments in Stroke–International Stroke Thrombolysis Register to develop a score that predicts symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage in patients undergoing stroke thrombolysis. |
| Rivaroxaban effective in symptomatic pulmonary embolism Posted: 03 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Treatment with rivaroxaban is "safe" and effective in patients with symptomatic pulmonary embolism, results from the EINSTEIN-PE trial suggest. |
| MI risk raised among elderly antipsychotic users Posted: 02 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Older patients with dementia who use antipsychotic medications have an increased risk for myocardial infarction, a study suggests. |
| Nonshockable cardiac arrest responsive to guideline-based CPR Posted: 02 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Individuals who experience out-of-hospital cardiac arrest from nonshockable rhythms are more likely to survive if they are given cardiopulmonary resuscitation in line with updated guideline recommendations, a study shows. |
| Target non-HDL cholesterol for atherosclerosis prevention Posted: 02 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Physical activity and levels of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol each independently predict subclinical atherosclerosis in healthy middle-aged men, data from a cross-sectional study suggest. |
| Add-on sitagliptin more effective than increasing insulin dose Posted: 02 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Adding sitagliptin to insulin therapy is more effective at improving glycemic control in patients with uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes than increasing insulin dose alone, report researchers. |
| Alcohol may reduce diabetes risk in women but not men Posted: 02 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT People who consume large amounts of spirits and beer may be at an increased risk for prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes, report Swedish researchers. |
| Target non-HDL cholesterol for atherosclerosis prevention Posted: 02 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Physical activity and levels of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol each independently predict subclinical atherosclerosis in healthy middle-aged men, data from a cross-sectional study suggest. |
| Meta-analysis confirms newest statin ‘equal to atorvastatin’ Posted: 02 Apr 2012 05:00 PM PDT Pitavastatin and low-dose atorvastatin have equivalent efficacy and safety for the treatment of dyslipidemia, results of a meta-analysis indicate. |
