Treatment to benefit African infants at risk of endemic fever
2012-04-23
Thousands of pre-school children in Africa could benefit from access to treatment for an endemic disease, after tests showed infants to be at high risk of infection.
Researchers tested hundreds of children aged between one and five in countries in sub-Saharan Africa where snail fever – also known as bilharzia or schistosomiasis – is endemic. Currently, infants are not regularly tested for infection as they are perceived to be at low risk of exposure to the water-borne disease and not to suffer severely from its ill-effects.
Scientists showed that in fact, infection ...
Forensic science used to determine who's who in pre-Columbian Peru
2012-04-23
Analysis of ancient mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been used to establish migration and population patterns for American indigenous cultures during the time before Christopher Columbus sailed to the Americas. New research published in BioMed Central's open access journal BMC Genetics has used more detailed DNA analysis of individuals from Arequipa region to identify the family relationships and burial traditions of ancient Peru.
The social unit (ayllu) of Native South Americans is thought to be based on kin relationships. The establishment of ayllu-based communities is ...
Personal Trainer's Negligence Results in $300,000 Settlement
2012-04-23
Many people trust personal trainers with their physical well-being. They literally put their bodies on the line under the assumption that trainers can supervise their exercise safely and with expertise. However, a personal trainer's negligence can have serious - and painful - consequences.
A New York woman suffered those consequences when a trainer at her Brooklyn gym failed to assist or spot her during an exercise she had never performed before. During this exercise, her foot became caught on a piece of equipment and she fell backward, fracturing both of her wrists. ...
New York Personal Injury Law Firm Trolman, Glaser & Lichtman Releases New Website Focused on Helping Patients Injured by Defective Medical Devices
2012-04-23
Amid the latest round of metal-on-metal hip replacement recalls, studies being ordered on transvaginal mesh and at least 20 deaths due to faulty heart defibrillator wires, the Wall Street Journal reported last week that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is under fire to create a more rigorous safety monitoring program for medical devices.
Recognizing a rise in injuries due to defective medical devices and the need for better testing, the New York law firm Trolman, Glaser & Lichtman recently released a new website focused on helping patients injured by defective ...
'Housekeeping' mechanism for brain stem cells discovered
2012-04-23
(New York, NY, April 22, 2012) — Researchers at Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) have identified a molecular pathway that controls the retention and release of the brain's stem cells. The discovery offers new insights into normal and abnormal neurologic development and could eventually lead to regenerative therapies for neurologic disease and injury. The findings, from a collaborative effort of the laboratories of Drs. Anna Lasorella and Antonio Iavarone, were published today in the online edition of Nature Cell Biology.
The research builds on recent studies, ...
Neuroscientists discover key protein responsible for controlling nerve cell protection
2012-04-23
A key protein, which may be activated to protect nerve cells from damage during heart failure or epileptic seizure, has been found to regulate the transfer of information between nerve cells in the brain. The discovery, made by neuroscientists at the University of Bristol and published in Nature Neuroscience and PNAS, could lead to novel new therapies for stroke and epilepsy.
The research team, led by Professor Jeremy Henley and Dr Jack Mellor from Bristol's Medical School, has identified a protein, known as SUMO, responsible for controlling the chemical processes which ...
Top Three Things to Know About Health Insurance During and After Divorce
2012-04-23
When considering divorce, one of many questions that will need to be answered is, "Will I lose my healthcare coverage and, if I do lose it, what are my options?" There are many options to consider; your divorce attorney can explain what's available to you based on your situation.
Employer-Provided Plans
For spouses that maintain coverage under their own employer-provided health care plans, there may be little change upon divorce. If there are children of the marriage, one piece of the child support puzzle will be determining who should maintain health insurance ...
U of I study: Soy protein alleviates symptoms of fatty liver disease
2012-04-23
URBANA – University of Illinois scientists report that soy protein may significantly reduce fat accumulation and triglycerides in the livers of obese persons. And they've discovered why it happens: soy restores partial function of that organ's key signaling pathway.
"Almost a third of American adults have fatty liver disease, many of them without symptoms. Obesity is a key risk factor for this condition, which can lead to liver failure," said Hong Chen, a U of I assistant professor of food science and human nutrition.
Fat is metabolized in the liver, and in obese persons, ...
Specific protein triggers changes in neurons in brain reward center linked to cocaine addiction
2012-04-23
New research from Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York reveals that repeated exposure to cocaine decreases the activity of a protein necessary for normal functioning of the brain's reward system, thus enhancing the reward for cocaine use, which leads to addiction. Investigators were also able to block the ability of repeated cocaine exposure, to induce addiction. The findings, published online April 22 in the journal Nature Neuroscience, provide the first evidence of how cocaine changes the shape and size of neuron rewards in a mouse model.
Repeated exposure to cocaine ...
A new diagnosis for Frida Kahlo's infertility
2012-04-23
SAN DIEGO, April 22, 2012 –Frida Kahlo's many haunting self-portraits have been studied by experts for decades, have attracted worldwide attention and have sold for millions of dollars at auction. Yet, despite the fact that Kahlo's work focuses largely on anatomy and failed reproduction attempts, relatively little attention has been paid to Kahlo's own body and infertility.
Intrigued by the messages manifested in Kahlo's work and surprised by the apparent lack of interest by scientists in Kahlo's clinical condition, Fernando Antelo, a surgical pathologist at the Harbor ...
