Left is mean but right is meaner, says new study of political discourse

2011-02-14
MEDFORD/SOMERVILLE, Mass.—While the tragic shooting in Arizona has spotlighted the vitriol that seems to pervade political commentary, objective research examining the scope of this disturbing phenomenon has been lacking. In the first published study of its kind, social scientists at Tufts University's School of Arts and Sciences have found that outrage talk is endemic among commentators of all political stripes, but measurably worse on the political right, and is more prevalent than it was even during the turmoil of the war in Viet Nam and the Watergate scandal. In their ...

WSU study finds younger stroke victims benefit from earlier MRIs, ambulance rides to ER

2011-02-14
Detroit - While the American Stroke Association reports that stroke is the third leading cause of death and one of the top causes of disability in the United States, young adults showing signs of suffering a stroke are sometimes misdiagnosed in hospital emergency rooms, preventing them from receiving early effective treatment that can prevent serious damage. Performing magnetic resonance imaging sooner on younger stroke patients entering emergency rooms can lower the rate of misdiagnosis and lead to faster appropriate treatment, according to a team of Wayne State University ...

2011-02-14
Michael Hensler, owner of McMats Recycled N New Commercial Carpets & Carpet Tiles is a self confessed scavenger. "I started my business scrounging around in junkyards and skips finding products that were completely reusable but being thrown out for no apparent reason.

Invasive plants can create positive ecological change
2011-02-14
A team of scientists has discovered that human-introduced, invasive species of plants can have positive ecological effects. Tomás Carlo, an assistant professor of biology at Penn State University, and Jason Gleditsch, a graduate student in the Department of Biology, have studied how invasive fruiting plants affect ecosystems and how those effects, contrary to prevailing ideas, sometimes can be beneficial to an ecological community. The team's research, which will be published in the journal Diversity and Distributions, is expected to affect the way environmental resource ...

Young children choose to share prizes after working together

2011-02-14
Grownups have a good sense of what's fair. Research now shows that this is true for young children, too. In a study published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, three-year-old children shared with a peer after they worked together to earn a reward, even in situations where it would be easy for one child to keep all of the spoils for himself. The new study was inspired by work in chimpanzees that found their cooperation regularly breaks down. "Chimpanzees often compete over food, which prevents them from working together on ...

Giant rats lead scientists to ancient face carvings

2011-02-14
Ancient stone faces carved into the walls of a well-known limestone cave in East Timor have been discovered by a team searching for fossils of extinct giant rats. The team of archaeologists and palaeontologists were working in Lene Hara Cave on the northeast tip of East Timor. "Looking up from the cave floor at a colleague sitting on a ledge, my head torch shone on what seemed to be a weathered carving," CSIRO's Dr Ken Aplin said. "I shone the torch around and saw a whole panel of engraved prehistoric human faces on the wall of the cave. "The local landowners with ...

Many stroke patients not getting preventive therapy for blood clots

2011-02-14
MAYWOOD, Ill. -- Patients with strokes, brain tumors and spinal cord injuries are at high risk for life-threatening blood clots, but many do not receive preventive therapy, Loyola University Health System researchers report. Neurologic and neurosurgical patients are prone to blood clots because they are immobile or because their blood is more likely to coagulate. But physicians often fail to recognize blood clots in such patients. And even when a blood clot is diagnosed, physicians sometimes fail to treat it with blood-thinning medications because of the risk of hemorrhage. "In ...

Most stroke patients don't get clot-busting treatment in timely manner, study finds

2011-02-14
Every minute counts after the onset of a stroke. The more time that elapses before a patient receives an intravenous drug to help break up the clot that is blocking a blood vessel in the brain, the slimmer the chances of a good outcome. Less than one-third of acute stroke patients treated with the clot-busting drug, called intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), receive it within 60 minutes of their hospital arrival, according to research presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference 2011. The research is published simultaneously ...
