For those with diabetes, controlling blood pressure is crucial, but not urgent
2012-01-09
A new study suggests that middle-aged adults recently diagnosed with diabetes and hypertension have time to try to learn how to control their high blood pressure without medications, but not too much time.
The consequences of delaying effective hypertension treatment for up to a year were small—a two-day reduction in quality-adjusted life expectancy—according to a study by University of Chicago researchers published online for the Journal of General Internal Medicine. But as the delay gets longer, the damages multiply. A ten-year delay decreased life expectancy by almost ...

Genetic and mechanistic basis for rotor syndrome uncovered
2012-01-09
The main symptom of Rotor syndrome is jaundice caused by a buildup of a substance known as conjugated bilirubin.

However, a team of researchers — led by Alfred Schinkel, at The Netherlands Cancer Institute, The Netherlands; and Milan Jirsa, at the Institute for Clinical and ...
