Regency Affiliates, Inc. Announces Deregistration of Common Shares

2010-10-26
NEW YORK, NY, October 26, 2010 (Press-News.org) Regency Affiliates, Inc. (the "Company"), a company with investments in a power generation facility and a single tenant office building occupied by the United States Social Security Administration, announced that the Company has filed to deregister its Common Shares under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The directors of the Company determined that any beneficial effect to the Company of being registered is substantially outweighed by the current and increasing regulatory burdens and costs of such registration. These include costs that would be involved to implement Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act together with substantial, additional accounting and legal costs had the Company remained a reporting company. The Company anticipates that its shares will continue to be quoted on the Pink Sheets, although no assurance can be given that our common stock will continue to be quoted following our deregistration with the SEC.

Laurence Levy, Chairman and Chief Executive of Regency stated, "I am pleased to have achieved this milestone for Regency. It will enable us to streamline our cost structure and to continue building shareholder value while reducing our regulatory and professional expense costs."

Kryptonite superglue improving the quality of life in heart patients recovering from surgery

2010-10-25
The glue, called Kryptonite™, is being used to enhance the closure of the breastbone after surgery. "It has properties like natural bone and allows for new bone growth" says Dr. Fedak, a cardiac surgeon at Foothills Hospital Medical Centre. Up to this point, the breastbone has been closed only with steel wire that stays in the chest. "One of the most common complaints among patients is sternal pain following heart surgery," he says "With this alternative procedure, significant healing occurs in hours rather than in weeks." By accelerating and improving bone stability, ...

Discovery of taste receptors in the lungs could help people with asthma breathe easier

Discovery of taste receptors in the lungs could help people with asthma breathe easier
2010-10-25
Taste receptors in the lungs? Researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore have discovered that bitter taste receptors are not just located in the mouth but also in human lungs. What they learned about the role of the receptors could revolutionize the treatment of asthma and other obstructive lung diseases. "The detection of functioning taste receptors on smooth muscle of the bronchus in the lungs was so unexpected that we were at first quite skeptical ourselves," says the study's senior author, Stephen B. Liggett, M.D., professor of medicine ...

Neurons work like a chain of dominos to control action sequences

2010-10-25
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- As anyone who as ever picked up a guitar or a tennis racket knows, precise timing is often an essential part of performing complex tasks. Now, by studying the brain circuits that control bird song, MIT researchers have identified a "chain reaction" of brain activity that appears to control the timing of song. The song of the zebra finch is very stereotypic; each song lasts about 1 second, and consists of multiple syllables whose timing is almost precisely the same from one performance to the next. "It's a great model system for studying how the brain ...

Study describes a tabletop source of bright, coherent X-rays

2010-10-25
Producing tightly focused beams of high energy X-rays, to examine everything from molecular structures to the integrity of aircraft wings, could become simpler and cheaper according to new research. Today, in Nature Physics, researchers from Imperial College London, the University of Michigan and Instituto Superior Téchnico Lisbon describe a tabletop instrument that produces synchrotron X-rays, whose energy and quality rivals that produced by some of the largest X-ray facilities in the world. Scientific and medical advances often depend on the development of better ...

Experts unveil new CVD guidelines and position papers at Canadian Cardiovascular Congress 2010

2010-10-25
The manuscripts associated with these summary presentations are in press and will be published in the Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) journal in 2011. Guidelines are one of the highest priorities for the CCS. "Feedback and surveys from the CCS membership and the broader cardiovascular community tell us that CCS guidelines are among our most important functions," says CCS president Dr. Charles Kerr. "As we embark on each new guideline project, we endeavor to identify strong co-chairs and expert panels so we can continue to support Canadian cardiovascular health ...

Marathons damage the hearts of less fit runners for up to 3 months

2010-10-25
A team of researchers and runners from the Heart and Stroke Foundation have come up with a practical way of answering the question. They used data from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to find out what is really going on in the marathoner's heart as the kilometers pile up. "Marathon runners can be a lot less fit than they think," Dr. Eric Larose today told the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress 2010, co-hosted by the Heart and Stroke Foundation and the Canadian Cardiovascular Society. Lack of real aerobic fitness may directly impact the ways the heart organizes itself ...

Obese children have signs of heart disease typically seen in middle-aged adults

2010-10-25
Montreal – The blood vessels of obese children have stiffness normally seen in much older adults with cardiovascular disease, Dr. Kevin Harris today told the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress 2010, co-hosted by the Canadian Cardiovascular Society and the Heart and Stroke Foundation. The clock is ticking and the shape of the 13 year-old-heart is changing – for the worse. "We were surprised to find that these obese children already have stiff blood vessels," says Dr. Harris from B.C. Children's Hospital. "Aortic stiffness is an early indicator of cardiovascular disease in ...

Many women missing out on the benefits of cardiac rehab

2010-10-25
"These two high-risk but universally undertreated groups are less likely attend cardiac rehab than their younger, male counterparts even when they are referred," says Dr. Martin, PhD(c) and surgical trainee at University Calgary/Libin Cardiovascular Institute, speaking on behalf of her co-authors at the Cardiac Wellness institute of Calgary and APPROACH. "And when women do attend cardiac rehab, they tend to present later and at a more serious stage of the disease." The study of 6,000 people living with cardiovascular disease found that participation in cardiac rehab was ...

New way of expanding cancer screening for minority women

2010-10-25
FOR EMBARGOED RELEASE: October 25, 2010 12:01AM ET New Way of Expanding Cancer Screening for Minority Women New York, October 25, 2010 — Minority patients have a significantly decreased survival from colon cancer compared to white patients, most often as a result of a late diagnosis. To help address this problem, a team of healthcare professionals at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center has identified an efficient way to increase minority access to lifesaving colorectal cancer screening (CRCS) in communities where multiple barriers ...

Colorectal cancer screening can be expanded by offering it during mammography visits

2010-10-25
Offering colorectal cancer screening to poor minority women during mammography visits can effectively expand screening in this otherwise underserved population, although lack of medical insurance remains a significant barrier. That is the conclusion of a new study published early online in Cancer, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society. The results highlight the need to find alternative funding sources for colorectal cancer screening from the government or private institutions. Colorectal cancer screening is inadequate in minority communities in the United ...
