MRC Scientists Find Better Way to Predict the Outcome of Breast Cancer Following Surgery
MRC Scientists have found a better way to predict the outcome of breast cancer following surgery which might lead to the improved management of the disease. The discovery, published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, complements the methods doctors currently use to predict the outcome of breast... view more (2003-12-03)

How can identical twins be genetically different?
They sleep together, eat together, and most people find it impossible to tell them apart. Identical twins who grow up together share just about everything, including their genes. But sometimes only one twin will have health problems when genetics predicts both of them should.   view more (2006-07-26)

Anaemia Treatment Could Worsen Cancer Prognosis (p1255)
Results of a European study in this week's issue of THE LANCET cast doubt over the value of treating anaemia with erythropoietin (epoetin beta) among patients who have cancer. Results of the study show that anaemic patients fare better in terms of reduced cancer progression and increased survival... view more (2003-10-15)

Women overestimate effectiveness of breast screening
Women either overestimate or are poorly informed about the effectiveness of breast screening, suggests research in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. But these are the very women who attend for screening. To give them the facts might deter them from being screened, so creating a... view more (2001-10-12)
