LA JOLLA, CA, June 01, 2011 (Press-News.org) MadCap Software, Inc. (http://www.madcapsoftware.com), the leader in multi-channel content authoring and a showcase company for Microsoft Visual Studio and Microsoft XPS, today announced that revenues for Q1 2011 have grown 41% over Q1 2010, continuing the profitability that the company has enjoyed since launching its flagship product Flare in 2006. In the wake of strong growth, MadCap has increased its cash and accounts receivable by 30% over the same period ending 2010. At the same time, MadCap continues to invest in resources by expanding headcount by 21% over the previous 12 months, and it expects the number of employees to grow an additional 30% by the end of 2011.
Driving MadCap's financial gains has been the rapidly growing global demand for MadCap's native XML state-of-the-art suite of technical communications and translation software. Recent customer showcases include Fitness First, the world's largest health and fitness club business, serving some 1.43 million members at more than 500 clubs worldwide; CCC Information Services, a leading provider of technology solutions for managing automotive claims and repair; Fellowship Technologies, a leader in church management software as a service (SaaS), which is used by more than 1,500 churches and some 43,000 registered users worldwide; and Picis, a global provider of innovative information solutions for the high-acuity areas of more than 1,900 hospitals in 19 countries.
"Our financial accomplishments and growth this past quarter are a direct result of two factors. First is the adoption of the new Flare 7.0 version and our new MadCap Contributor product for content review and contribution by subject-matter experts and document managers. Second is the superior service and support that has led to strong customer retention, which is reflected by a maintenance renewal rate in excess of 80%," said Taunya Conte, MadCap CFO. "This growth is a testament to our vision and commitment over these last five years to providing customers with a best-in-class experience that spans all our software and support."

Study: Biodegradable products may be bad for the environment
2011-06-01
Research from North Carolina State University shows that so-called biodegradable products are likely doing more harm than good in landfills, because they are releasing a powerful greenhouse gas as they break down.
"Biodegradable materials, such as disposable cups and utensils, are broken down in landfills by microorganisms that then produce methane," says Dr. Morton Barlaz, co-author of a paper describing the research and professor and head of NC State's Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering. "Methane can be a valuable energy source when captured, ...
California scientists discover how vitamins and minerals may prevent age-related diseases
2011-06-01
Bethesda, MD—Severe deficiency of the vitamins and minerals required for life is relatively uncommon in developed nations, but modest deficiency is very common and often not taken seriously. A new research published online in the FASEB Journal (http://www.fasebj.org), however, may change this thinking as it examines moderate selenium and vitamin K deficiency to show how damage accumulates over time as a result of vitamin and mineral loss, leading to age-related diseases.
"Understanding how best to define and measure optimum nutrition will make the application of new technologies ...
Higher return to prison for women without drug abuse programs
2011-06-01
TORONTO, Ont., May 31—Female prisoners who did not participate in a drug treatment program after their release were 10 times more likely to return to prison within one year than other prisoners, a new study has found.
More than one-third of those women were sent back to prison within six months, according to the national study led by Flora Matheson, a medical sociologist at St. Michael's Hospital.
The findings, published in the June issue of the American Journal of Public Health, underline the importance of post-release treatment programs for prisoners with substance ...
The real space saver: NC State students look to support manned mission to Mars
2011-06-01
What would it take to make a manned mission to Mars a reality? A team of aeronautical and textile engineering students from North Carolina State University believe part of the solution may lie in advanced textile materials. The students joined forces to tackle life-support challenges that the aerospace industry has been grappling with for decades.
"One of the big issues, in terms of a manned mission to Mars, is creating living quarters that would protect astronauts from the elements – from radiation to meteorites," says textile engineering student Brent Carter. "Currently, ...
Antibodies successful in the treatment of the hemolytic-uremic syndrome from EHEC
2011-06-01
In the online version of the New England Journal of Medicine, physicians and scientists in Heidelberg, Montreal, and Paris reported on the successful treatment of three young children who were suffering from a severe hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) after an infection with enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC). The infections occurred in 2010. EHEC are the bacteria that cause the current wave of infections that have already claimed ten lives in Germany. The number of suspected and confirmed cases of EHEC has now reached 700.

HbA1C test for glucose monitoring poorly predictive in dialysis patients
2011-06-01
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – May 31, 2011 – The gold standard long-term glucose monitoring test for patients with diabetes proved to be of limited value in dialysis patients, according to a new study at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center.
The study appears online in the Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology and is scheduled for the July print issue.
Blood sugar monitoring is a vital part of diabetes management. Patients and physicians rely on the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) test to measure an individual's average blood sugar level over the prior three months. ...
Harvard scientists 'see' the early cellular cause of dry eye disease for the first time
2011-06-01
Bethesda, MD—If you are one of the millions of people around the world who struggle with dry eye disease, good news is on the way. A new research discovery published in the Journal of Leukocyte Biology (https://www.jleukbio.org) offers hope for new drugs that treat the cellular cause of the disease rather than its symptoms. That's because the research is the first to identify natural killer (NK) cells, a type of cell that provides innate immunity to the eyes, as promoting the inflammation that plays a critical role in the development of dry eye disease.
"Dry eye disease ...
Long-term study data supports association between childhood ADHD and substance abuse risk
2011-06-01
Analysis of data from two long-term studies of the impact of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) on the development of psychiatric disorders in young adults confirms that ADHD alone significantly increases the risk of cigarette smoking and substance abuse in both boys and girls. The report from a team of Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) investigators will appear in the Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and has been released online.
"Our study, which is one of the largest set of longitudinal studies of this issue to date, ...
Origins of XMRV deciphered, undermining claims for a role in human disease
2011-06-01
Delineation of the origin of the retrovirus known as XMRV from the genomes of laboratory mice indicates that the virus is unlikely to be responsible for either prostate cancer or chronic fatigue syndrome in humans, as has been widely published. The virus arose because of genetic recombination of two mouse viruses. Subsequent infection of lab experiments with XMRV formed the basis of the original association.
