Prefrontal-limbic network dysfunction in depressive BD Posted: 04 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Study findings suggest that patients in the depressive phase of bipolar disorder show dysfunction in prefrontal-limbic networks and associated striatal systems, which can be measured using amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations.

<i>GRID1</i> thalamo-cortical gene variations absent in schizophrenia Posted: 04 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Genetic variation in the glutamate receptor delta 1 gene affects gray matter of the anterior thalamus and left lateral prefrontal cortex in healthy individuals but not among patients with schizophrenia, suggest findings published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research.

DBP ‘remains relevant’ in stroke risk assessment Posted: 04 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT A large study has shed light on the relationship of systolic and diastolic blood pressure with stroke risk as people age.

<i>GRID1</i> thalamo-cortical gene variations absent in schizophrenia Posted: 04 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Genetic variation in the glutamate receptor delta 1 gene affects gray matter of the anterior thalamus and left lateral prefrontal cortex in healthy individuals but not among patients with schizophrenia, suggest findings published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research.

Stenting outcomes worse for elderly women than men Posted: 03 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Results from a cohort study published in Cardiology show that elderly women have a higher risk for complications and in-hospital mortality immediately after treatment with either drug-eluting stents or bare metal stents than elderly men.

InsuPad device may improve insulin therapy Posted: 03 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT A novel device is currently under development for aiding insulin analog therapy in diabetes patients, report researchers.

Insulin degludag shows promise in diabetes Posted: 03 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Self-administration of daily insulin degludag injections is no less effective than self-injecting insulin glargine in patients with diabetes who are new to insulin therapy, say researchers.

Selective screening misses gestational diabetes Posted: 03 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Selective screening for gestational diabetes does not always identify women who have the condition, shows research.

Urinary adiponectin as a marker for diabetic nephropathy Posted: 03 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT Urinary adiponectin may provide a novel biomarker for diabetic nephropathy, shows research from Finland.

Diclofenac increases risk for anastomotic leakage after colorectal surgery Posted: 03 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT The use of cyclo-oxygenase-2 nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs increases the risk for anastomotic leakage after colorectal surgery, research shows.

Age, not just comorbidity, affects breast cancer surgery rates in elderly Posted: 03 Oct 2012 05:00 PM PDT The high rates of elderly UK women with breast cancer who do not undergo surgical treatment are not entirely explained by the presence of comorbidities, report UK researchers.
