| Potential new drug for type 2 diabetes | |||
|
An experimental oral drug has lowered blood sugar levels and inflammation in mice with Type 2 diabetes, suggesting that the medication could someday be added to the arsenal of drugs used by millions of Americans with this disease, according to new research. |
|||
| Brain abnormalities identified that result from prenatal methamphetamine exposure | |||
|
Children whose mothers abused methamphetamine (meth) during pregnancy show brain abnormalities that may be more severe than that of children exposed to alcohol prenatally, according to a new study. While researchers have long known that drug abuse during pregnancy can alter fetal brain development, this finding shows the potential impact of meth. Identifying vulnerable brain structures may help predict particular learning and behavioral problems in meth-exposed children. |

| Was the recent US stock market drop accompanied by more heart attacks? | |||
|
A novel report explores the possible relationship between fluctuations in the stock market and the incidence of local heart attacks. |
|||
| Antiseptic cloths associated with reduced rate of treatment-resistant bacteria in the trauma center | |||
|
Bathing trauma patients daily using cloths containing the antiseptic chlorhexidine may be associated with a decreased rate of colonization and infection by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and other difficult-to-treat bacteria, according to a new report. |
|||
| Level of gene alters risk of Alzheimers disease, researchers find | |||
|
Using sophisticated techniques that scan the genomes of patients, researchers have found that a gene appears to either help protect against development of Alzheimers disease, or promote the disorder depending on the level of gene in the brain. |
|||
| Brain plaques may explain higher risk of Alzheimers based on moms history | |||
|
A family history of Alzheimers is one of the biggest risk factors for developing the memory-robbing disease, which affects more than 5 million Americans and is the most common form of senile dementia. Researchers have found the likely basis for this heightened familial risk -- especially from the maternal side. |
|||
| Scarcity of phosphorus threat to global food production | |||
|
Phosphorus is just as important to agriculture as water. But a lack of availability and accessibility of phosphorus is an emerging problem that threatens our capacity to feed the global population. Like nitrogen and potassium, it is a nutrient that plants take up from the soil and it is crucial to soil fertility and crop growth. |
|||
| African-Americans have highest cancer rates of all racial ethnicities, yet feel less at risk, study finds | |||
|
Mammograms, pap smears and early detection tests for prostate cancer, colorectal cancer and other malignancies are critical for catching cancer before it becomes deadly. However, a new study shows that persons of different ethnic groups have different ideas and opinions about whether they are at risk for developing cancer -- perceptions that can influence whether they undergo screening. |
|||
| Some older ER patients are getting the wrong medicines | |||
|
It is common for patients 65 and older to receive potentially inappropriate medications when treated in an emergency room. Nearly 19.5 million older patients, or 16.8 percent of eligible emergency visits from 2000-2006, received one or more of these medications. |
|||
| Treating vitamin D deficiency significantly reduces heart disease risk, studies find | |||
|
Researchers in Utah last fall demonstrated the link between vitamin D deficiency and increased risk for coronary artery disease. These new studies show that treating vitamin D deficiency with supplements may help to prevent or reduce a persons risk for cardiovascular disease and a host of other chronic conditions. Researchers also establish what level of vitamin D further enhances that risk reduction. |
|||
| The mode of action of certain toxins that accumulate in seafood | |||
|
Toxins released by certain microalgae can contaminate fish and shellfish which then become toxic to humans. Researchers have, for the first time, identified the mechanisms of action of two of these toxins. They have shown how and why they cause neurological symptoms. These findings could provide a basis for the development of new tests to screen for these toxins. |

| Parents may not understand or recall risks associated with childrens surgery | |||
|
Parents of children undergoing ear, nose and throat surgery do not appear to remember all of the risks of the procedures explained to them by clinicians, even when detailed surgical risk counseling and data sheets are used, according to a new report. |
|||
| Study assesses complications associated with nasal ventilation in newborns | |||
|
More than 10 percent of newborns who receive oxygenation and ventilation using nasal continuous airway pressure in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) may experience complications inside or outside the nose, according to a new report. |
|||
| Obesity and alcohol act together to increase the risk of liver disease | |||
|
Two studies show that obesity and alcohol act together to increase the risk of liver disease in both men and women. |
|||
| Flowering plants may be considerably older than previously thought | |||
|
Flowering plants may be considerably older than previously thought, says a new analysis of the plant family tree. Previous studies suggest that flowering plants, or angiosperms, first arose 140 to 190 million years ago. Now, a new article pushes back the age of angiosperms to 215 million years ago, some 25 to 75 million years earlier than either the fossil record or previous molecular studies suggest. |

| Seeking dark matter on a desktop | |||
|
Desktop experiments could point the way to dark matter discovery, complementing grand astronomical searches and deep underground observations. According to recent theoretical results, small blocks of matter on a tabletop could reveal elusive properties of the as-yet-unidentified dark matter particles that make up a quarter of the universe. |
|||
| Safer, greener cars: Cork may be better than polymer foam, study suggests | |||
|
Crash-test dummies could soon be facing vehicle collision tests in cars padded with cork rather than traditional materials such as polymer foams or porous aluminium metal, according to Portuguese engineers. |
|||
| Underpriveleged patients not as likely to be referred to specialty hospitals for brain tumors | |||
|
African-American, Hispanic and economically disadvantaged patients with brain tumors are significantly less likely to be referred to high-volume hospitals that specialize in neurosurgery than other patients of similar age, the same gender, and with similar comorbidities, according to new research. |
