Lotus Spas Delivers a New European Spa Range to the Block!

2011-05-10

SLOVAKIA, May 09, 2011 (Press-News.org) Lotus Spas are proud to announce a new range of hot tubs to Europe.

Our new range of spas is split into two collections both offering the highest build quality and standards of craftsmanship to bring a total of 8 different spas to the market.

Engineered in Canada, the spas are built to withstand even the harshest of Canadian winters and they have been credited as being an "Energy Efficient Appliance" by the California Energy Commission (CEC), which is amongst the most stringent in the world, as well as complying with all European industry standards.

All our spas are cost efficient, by employing the newest technologies to make the pumps extra efficient and the entire inside of the spa shell is insulated to ensure the heat stays inside helping to heat the water not the air outside.

All spas will be available throughout Europe via our European network of hot tub dealers managed from our base in Slovakia.

Lotus Spas are distributors of high quality hot tubs across Europe.

Mayo Clinic studies how much practice makes perfect when performing colonoscopies

2011-05-10

ROCHESTER, Minn. - A colonoscopy is an invaluable procedure for detecting problems in the colon and rectum. Doctors can often diagnose gastrointestinal issues and even catch the warning signs of colorectal cancer. Perfecting the skills required for this delicate procedure takes practice. But just how much practice makes perfect? That was the question Robert E. Sedlack, M.D., and his Mayo Clinic research team set out to answer in their recently completed study of colorectal procedures. Their findings suggest much more practice is needed than gastroenterological professional ...

First human NOTES experience for sleeve gastrectomy at UCSD

2011-05-10

Sleeve gastrectomy, in which part of the stomach is removed, can be safe and effective when performed either transorally or transvaginally, according to researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) who are pioneering the surgery in the U.S. Natural orifice translumenal surgery® (NOTES) eliminates the need for a large incision for organ removal, which could increase risks for infection, incisional hernia and other problems. In their review of 14 morbidly obese patients who had undergone NOTES as part of a gastrectomy, the researchers found no complications. ...

Oncolytic viruses effectively target and kill pancreatic cancer stem cells

2011-05-10

Oncolytic viruses quickly infect and kill cancer stem cells, which may provide a treatment for tumors that are resistant to conventional chemotherapy and radiation, particularly pancreatic cancer, according to new research from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. The findings are especially important since pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis and is difficult to detect and treat at early stages. Investigators led by Joyce Wong, MD, surgical researcher with Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, investigated whether they could use oncolytic viruses, ...

UT Southwestern scientists unmask mysterious cells as key 'border patrol agents' in the intestine

2011-05-10

DALLAS – May 9, 2011 – Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have uncovered new clues about how the intestine maintains friendly relations with the 100 trillion symbiotic bacteria that normally live in the digestive tract. Their latest findings, available online today and in a future edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, suggest that a once enigmatic cell population which lurks in the intestinal lining is essential for preventing friendly bacteria from invading into deeper tissue where they can cause debilitating conditions like inflammatory ...

Heart medication best at bedtime, study reveals

2011-05-10

When doctors give heart drugs to patients, the time of day can make a big difference, according to new research by University of Guelph scientists. Many doctors prefer to give heart drugs to patients in the morning. But the study revealed that angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors – commonly given to patients with high blood pressure or after a heart attack or during heart failure – improve heart structure and function when given at sleep time. In fact, when administered during wake time, ACE inhibitors are no more effective than a placebo, the study found. The ...

New York, N.Y. (May 9, 2011) – In the first comprehensive study of autism prevalence using a total population sample, an international team of investigators from the U.S., South Korea, and Canada estimated the prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in South Korea to be 2.64%, or approximately 1 in 38 children, and concluded that autism prevalence estimates worldwide may increase when this approach is used to identify children with ASD.

2011-05-10

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Imagine an insect repellant that not only is thousands of times more effective than DEET – the active ingredient in most commercial mosquito repellants – but also works against all types of insects, including flies, moths and ants. That possibility has been created by the discovery of a new class of insect repellant made in the laboratory of Vanderbilt Professor of Biological Sciences and Pharmacology Laurence Zwiebel and reported this week in the online Early Edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. "It wasn't something we ...

Zombie ants have fungus on the brain, new research reveals

2011-05-10

New research has revealed how infection by a parasitic fungus dramatically changes the behavior of tropical of carpenter ants (species Camponotus leonardi), causing them to become zombie-like and to die at a spot that has optimal reproduction conditions for the fungus. The multinational research team studied ants living high up in the rainforest canopy in Thailand. A paper describing the research will be published in the BioMed Central open-access journal BMC Ecology on 9 May 2011. "The behavior of these infected zombie ants essentially causes their bodies to become an ...
