Impulsivity in bipolar disorder unrelated to substance abuse Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:00 PM PDT Trait impulsivity is elevated and neurocognitive functioning is impaired in patients with bipolar disorder irrespective of whether they have a substance abuse history, research shows.

DiaRem score predicts diabetes remission after gastric bypass Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:00 PM PDT A new scoring system offers a "scientifically valid" way of predicting the 5-year likelihood for diabetes remission in patients undergoing gastric bypass surgery, say the researchers who developed the score.

Swallow therapy combats post-radiotherapy dysphagia Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:00 PM PDT Swallowing exercises can help to minimize the risk for dysphagia in patients undergoing radiotherapy for head and neck cancer, a case study suggests.

Impulsivity in bipolar disorder unrelated to substance abuse Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:00 PM PDT Trait impulsivity is elevated and neurocognitive functioning is impaired in patients with bipolar disorder irrespective of whether they have a substance abuse history, research shows.

Adolescents with psychosis face long treatment delays Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:00 PM PDT Adolescents have a duration of untreated psychosis that is approximately twice that seen in adults, UK study findings show.

Adolescents with psychosis face long treatment delays Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:00 PM PDT Adolescents have a duration of untreated psychosis that is approximately twice that seen in adults, UK study findings show.

Rituximab shows long-term efficacy in antibody-associated vasculitis Posted: 11 Aug 2013 05:00 PM PDT A single course of rituximab is a viable alternative to conventional cyclophosphamide/azathioprine immunosuppression in patients with severe antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis, long-term results of the RAVE trial suggests.

Intestinal erosion points to lymphoma risk in celiac patients Posted: 08 Aug 2013 05:00 PM PDT The presence of persistent villous atrophy is a risk factor for lymphoproliferative malignancy in people with celiac disease, a population-based cohort study suggests.

Call for improved antenatal asthma management Posted: 07 Aug 2013 05:00 PM PDT The results of a study in South Australia show that maternal asthma significantly and independently increases the risk for perinatal complications, such as premature birth, gestational diabetes, and small for gestational age birthweight.

Tumor size key to visceral pleural invasion impact Posted: 06 Aug 2013 05:00 PM PDT Visceral pleural invasion significantly increases the risk for recurrence and reduces overall survival (OS) in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer, but only for those whose tumors are over 2 cm in diameter, research suggests.

NSCLC <i>BRAF</i> mutation characterized in the clinic Posted: 06 Aug 2013 05:00 PM PDT Clinical characteristics do not distinguish between non-small-cell lung cancer patients with and without BRAF mutations, report US scientists.

Multiple BP components give better vascular risk picture Posted: 04 Aug 2013 05:00 PM PDT Considering just one component of blood pressure may give an incomplete picture of a person's cardiovascular risk, study findings suggest.
