Mayo Clinic finds tool to predict disability timeline for progressive MS patients
2011-04-13
ROCHESTER, Minn. -- Many patients with progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) worry how quickly the disease will progress. Now, by noting the presence of certain markers in a commonly performed diagnostic test, Mayo Clinic researchers can predict whether patients will suffer a faster onset of disability and counsel them to help ease anxiety. The research is being presented at the American Academy of Neurology meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii.
Progressive MS is a disease of the central nervous system that can damage the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves. Over time, this damage ...
Real-time search market worth more than $30 million a day
2011-04-13
All of those Twitter tweets and Facebook friends may have value after all, according to Penn State researchers.
Updates on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and other real-time content sites could be worth more than $30 million a day, or nearly $10.9 billion a year, to advertisers, said Jim Jansen, associate professor, information sciences and technology.
"Real-time content is particularly interesting because it's a window into a person's world at a particular moment in time," said Jansen. "What we wanted to determine is if real-time search could be monetized."
Jansen defines ...
Closely monitoring low-risk prostate cancer, with biopsy, does not raise risk of death
2011-04-13
A Johns Hopkins study of 769 men from across the United States recently diagnosed with low-grade prostate cancer shows that forgoing immediate surgery to remove the tumor or radiation poses no added risk of death. Delaying treatment is fine, the results show, so long as the cancer's progression and tumor growth are closely monitored through "active surveillance" and there is no dramatic worsening of the disease over time.
None of the men, mostly 65 and older, have so far died from prostate cancer since the study began in 1995. However, one-third of study participants, ...
47% Fall In Home Sales Since 2007
2011-04-13
Mortgage shoppers in the UK may be interested in new research from Lloyds TSB which shows property sales have fallen significantly across England and Wales since 2007 amid a widening North-South housing divide. The number of property sales in England and Wales has almost halved over the past three years, but there has been a clear North-South divide with property sales in the South down by 42% compared with a 51% drop in the North1. Overall, there were 649,957 home sales in England and Wales in 2010; 47% less than in 2007 (1,222,402).
The South West sees the smallest ...
Alcohol helps the brain remember, says new study
2011-04-13
AUSTIN, Texas-Drinking alcohol primes certain areas of our brain to learn and remember better, says a new study from the Waggoner Center for Alcohol and Addiction Research at The University of Texas at Austin.
The common view that drinking is bad for learning and memory isn't wrong, says neurobiologist Hitoshi Morikawa, but it highlights only one side of what ethanol consumption does to the brain.
"Usually, when we talk about learning and memory, we're talking about conscious memory," says Morikawa, whose results were published last month in The Journal of Neuroscience. ...
Negative image of people produces selfish actions
2011-04-13
This release is available in German.
The expectations people have about how others will behave play a large role in determining whether people cooperate with each other or not. And moreover that very first expectation, or impression, is hard to change. "This is particularly true when the impression is a negative one," says Michael Kurschilgen from the Max Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods in Bonn, summarising the key findings of a study in which he and his colleagues Christoph Engel and Sebastian Kube examined the results of so-called public good games. ...
Louisiana, Florida residents differ on views of long-term effects of oil spill
2011-04-13
DURHAM, N.H. – One year after the BP Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion on the Gulf Coast, new research from the Carsey Institute at the University of New Hampshire shows that despite the roughly equivalent economic compensation, Louisiana and Florida residents differ in perceptions about the current and long-term effects of the largest marine oil spill in U.S. history.
"Louisiana residents were more likely than Floridians to say their family suffered major economic setbacks because of the spill, to expect compensation by BP, and plan to leave the region as a result ...
A 'Pacman strategy' to boost the immune system to fight cancer
2011-04-13
A molecule that lies dormant until it encounters a cancer cell, then suddenly activates and rouses the body's immune system to fight cancer cells directly, marks the latest step in scientists' efforts to tap the body's own resources to fight the disease.
The developers of the technology at the University of Rochester Medical Center dub it the "Pacman strategy" because it hinges upon molecular machines produced in abundance by tumors to chew through and gobble up particular chains of molecules.
The key feature of the work is a new type of fusion molecule with three parts: ...
Discovery of 2 new genes provides hope for stemming Staph infections
2011-04-13
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- The discovery of two genes that encode copper- and sulfur-binding repressors in the hospital terror Staphylococcus aureus means two new potential avenues for controlling the increasingly drug-resistant bacterium, scientists say in the April 15, 2011 issue of the Journal of Biological Chemistry.
"We need to come up with new targets for antibacterial agents," said Indiana University Bloomington biochemist David Giedroc, who led the project. "Staph is becoming more and more multi-drug resistant, and both of the systems we discovered are promising."
The ...
Lesser-known Escherichia coli types targeted in food safety research
2011-04-13
This release is available in Spanish.
Almost everyone knows about Escherichia coli O157:H7, the culprit behind many headline-making outbreaks of foodborne illness in the United States. But the lesser-known relatives of this pathogenic microbe are increasingly of concern to food safety scientists.
That's according to U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) microbiologist and research leader Pina M. Fratamico. Researchers such as Fratamico, along with food safety regulators, public health officials and food producers in the United States and abroad, want to know more about ...
