This nationally-based study is the first in which researchers examined hypertension hospitalizations in children.

Too much salt may damage blood vessels and lead to high blood pressure

2012-06-19
Eating a high-salt diet for several years may damage blood vessels — increasing your risk of developing high blood pressure, according to research reported in the American Heart Association journal Circulation. People with this type of blood vessel damage who eat a high-salt diet are more likely to develop hypertension, or high blood pressure. This research hints at the presence of a "sodium amplification loop" in which eating too much salt for a long time damages blood vessels, leading to a greater chance of developing high blood pressure if the high-salt diet is continued. Researchers ...

UC Santa Cruz researchers find increase in Lyme disease mirrors drop in red fox numbers

UC Santa Cruz researchers find increase in Lyme disease mirrors drop in red fox numbers
2012-06-19
SANTA CRUZ, Ca.--A continued increase of Lyme disease in the United States, once linked to a recovering deer population, may instead be explained by a decline of the red fox, UC Santa Cruz researchers suggest in a new study. The team's findings, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, reveal that although deer populations have stabilized, Lyme disease has increased across the northeastern and midwestern United States over the past three decades. The increase coincides with shrinking populations of the red fox, which feeds on small mammals, ...
