PEBBLE BEACH, CA, April 10, 2014 (Press-News.org) Artist Anne Thull displays her limited edition led lighted bronze "Vineyard Series Grapevine Sculptures" during the Pebble Beach Food and Wine event April 10-13, 2014, Pebble Beach, CA.

In 1900 Anne's maternal grandparents emigrated from their native Bellosguardo and Naples Italy to America with a precious grapevine cutting. Later, their twelve children and friends savored Samuel Tesauro's homemade wine with Clelia's remarkable meals from the family's vegetable garden.

In 2007 Anne created her first limited edition "Vineyard Series Grapevine Sculptures" and lit them with LED's. As people would inquire "...why did you select the grapevine?" Anne realized she created the sculptures from childhood memories of growing up in her grandparents' home with her parents.

Clelia and Samuel brought their precious grapevine cutting to America and a century later their granddaughter cast it into bronze.

April 10-13, 2014 view Anne's sculptures during "Pebble Beach Food & Wine's" Beach and Tennis Club Dinners Friday and Saturday evening and in the "Lexus Grand Tasting" tent Saturday and Sunday 12 noon to 3pm. www.pbfw.com click "Talent" and "Featured Guest" for more information.

More evidence that NAFLD is an independent cardiovascular risk factor

2014-04-10
London, UK, Thursday 10 April 2014: Two new studies presented today at the International Liver CongressTM 2014 have provided more evidence to clarify the role of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) as an independent risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). In the first long-term study , in patients at high CVD risk, NAFLD was shown to contribute to the progression of early atherosclerosis independently of traditional CVD risk factors. In a second long-term study , NAFLD was confirmed as a significant long-term risk factor for the development ...

New prediction model to improve patient survival after paracetamol-related liver failure

2014-04-10
London, UK, Thursday 10 April 2014: In the UK paracetamol toxicity is the most common cause of ALF and has a high mortality rate. It is estimated that 150 to 200 deaths and 15 to 20 LTs occur as a result of poisoning each year in England and Wales. LT is the definitive treatment for ALF patients who meet the criteria for transplantation but the current means of selection for LT (the King's College Criteria) are not ideal and do not assess changes in prognostic measures over time or quantify the mortality risk for individual patients. Experts in London from King's College ...

Researchers develop novel molecular blood group typing technique

2014-04-10
Philadelphia, PA, April 10, 2014 – Scientists in France have designed a new system for molecular blood group typing that offers blood banks the possibility of extensive screening of blood donors at a relatively low cost. Their approach is described in the current issue of The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics. Although blood transfusion is generally safe, alloimmunization (when an antibody is formed in response to an antigen that is not present on a person's own red blood cells [RBCs]) remains a dreaded complication, particularly in patients with sickle cell diseases. ...

Head injuries can make children loners

2014-04-10
New research has found that a child's relationships may be a hidden casualty long after a head injury. Neuroscientists at Brigham Young University studied a group of children three years after each had suffered a traumatic brain injury – most commonly from car accidents. The researchers found that lingering injury in a specific region of the brain predicted the health of the children's social lives. "The thing that's hardest about brain injury is that someone can have significant difficulties but they still look okay," said Shawn Gale, a neuropsychologist at BYU. ...

There's no faking it -- your sexual partner knows if you're really satisfied

2014-04-10
There is no point faking it in bed because chances are your sexual partner will be able to tell. A study by researchers at the University of Waterloo found that men and women are equally perceptive of their partners' levels of sexual satisfaction. The study by Erin Fallis, PhD candidate, and co-authors Professor Uzma S. Rehman and Professor Christine Purdon in the Department of Psychology at Waterloo, identified sexual communication and ability to recognize emotions as important factors that predict accuracy in gauging one partner's sexual satisfaction. The study ...

Researchers discover how the kissing disease virus hijacks human cells

2014-04-10
This news release is available in French. University of Montreal researchers have discovered how a component of the Epstein Barr (EBV) virus takes over our cells gene regulating machinery, allowing the virus to replicate itself. The EBV virus causes a variety of diseases such as Hodgkin's lymphoma and Burkitt's lymphoma, with the most prevalent disease being infectious mononucleosis commonly known as "kissing disease" because of its mode of transmission between humans. It turns out that the diseases begin with kiss of a molecular sort; a viral protein contacting the ...

Periodontal disease associated with cardiovascular risk in large multicenter study

2014-04-10
Sophia Antipolis, 10 April 2014. Periodontal disorders such as tooth loss and gingivitis have been identified as a potential risk marker for cardiovascular disease in a large study reported today.(1) More than 15,000 patients with chronic coronary heart disease provided information on their dental health, with results showing that indicators of periodontal disease (fewer remaining teeth, gum bleeding) were common in this patient group and associated with numerous cardiovascular and socioeconomic risk factors. Conversely, a lower prevalence of tooth loss was associated ...

Breastfeeding and infant sleep

2014-04-10
In a new article published online today in the journal Evolution, Medicine, and Public Health, Professor David Haig argues that infants that wake frequently at night to breastfeed are delaying the resumption of the mother's ovulation and therefore preventing the birth of a sibling with whom they would have to compete. It has already been documented that smaller gaps between the births of siblings are associated with increased mortality of infants and toddlers, especially in environments where resources are scarce and where infectious disease rates are high, and Professor ...
