Evidence for clinical heterogeneity in mixed bipolar states Posted: 23 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Research suggests that there are significant clinical differences between bipolar disorder patients who experience mixed mood states with predominant depressive or manic symptoms.

Ethnic density linked to psychosis risk Posted: 23 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Reduced own-group ethnic density within a given geographic area is associated with an increased risk for psychotic experiences, results from a UK study show.

Vascular cell generation could be used to treat vascular disorders Posted: 22 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT A study in mice has shown that large numbers of vascular endothelial cells can be generated from human amniotic fluid-derived cells.

Metabolic pathway for insulin effects of sleep identified Posted: 22 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Sleep deprivation reduces insulin sensitivity in human fat cells, which could, over time, lead to metabolic disorders such as diabetes, researchers report.

Cardiovascular disease risk varies with HIV subgroup Posted: 22 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT The ability of lipids to predict risk for cardiovascular disease may be weakened in women who are infected with HIV, report researchers.

Antipsychotic drug quandary for Alzheimer’s patients Posted: 22 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Stopping treatment with risperidone to limit side effects risks the return of psychosis or agitation in patients with Alzheimer's disease who have been taking the drug to suppress such symptoms, research shows.

Up to 10% of acute lung injuries may be drug-related Posted: 22 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT A population-based study has found that drug-induced acute lung injury accounts for around 9.5% of all acute lung injury cases.

Mother–baby intensive care admission carries high mortality risk Posted: 21 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Mothers and newborns who are both admitted to an intensive care unit are significantly more likely to die than mother–baby pairs who are not, a study suggests.
