Patients who suffer from both allergic rhinitis and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may experience escalated symptoms of stress and fatigue. view more (2009-10-05)
Study Suggests Link Between Down's Syndrome And Neural-tube Defects (pp 1316, 1331)
Authors of a study in this week's issue of THE LANCET highlight how infants born within families who have a high risk of neural-tube defects (NTD) could also be at an increased risk of Down's syndrome-and vice versa, suggesting an association between Down's syndrome and NTD. NTD are birth defects of the brain or spinal cord caused by abnormal... view more... (2003-04-16)
Hyperferritinemia is another surrogate marker of advanced liver disease
High serum ferritin, being a hallmark of hereditary hemochromatosis , is frequently found in chronic hepatitis C, alcoholic or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients. view more (2009-05-13)
Spotting clues that point to 'invisible' disorder
Faced with a patient who is 'tired all the time' and reports 'pain in my body every day', many General Practitioners may struggle to identify fibromyalgia, a little-known but debilitating condition as the cause of their patient's suffering. Fibromyalgia is a widespread and yet little-recognised and little-understood pain and fatigue disorder that... view more... (2002-11-19)
Restricted fetal growth increases risk of irritable bowel syndrome
Babies weighing less than the standard weight seem to be at significantly greater risk of developing irritable bowel syndrome or IBS, suggests research published ahead of print in the journal Gut. view more (2006-09-28)
Mayo Clinic finds effective test to determine treatment for chronic cough
Mayo Clinic researchers have found that an asthma diagnostic test, the exhaled nitric oxide test, is an inexpensive, quick and easy way to determine whether inhaled corticosteroids will relieve a patient's chronic cough. view more (2006-09-06)
Obesity-related hormone is higher in children with Down syndrome
Children with Down syndrome are more likely than their unaffected siblings to have higher levels of a hormone associated with obesity, according to pediatric researchers. view more (2007-10-29)
Nature press release on DiGeorge syndrome paper
[410097] LIFELINES: CATCH 22 (pp97–101) In the 1 March issue of Nature, researchers from Baylor College of Medicine in Texas pinpoint the gene behind one of the most common genetic diseases to affect humans: DiGeorge syndrome. The disease results in a broad spectrum of symptoms, including heart abnormalities, disruption of the immune system... view more... (2001-02-23)
Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis have increased incidence of other chronic illnesses
Patients who suffer from chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) also tend to suffer from other chronic illnesses, like asthma, hypertension, and arthritis. view more (2009-10-05)
Molecule links Down syndrome to Alzheimer's
Researchers from the Institute of Psychiatry at King's College London have identified a molecule that could be targeted to treat the cognitive impairment in people with Down syndrome. view more (2005-12-06)
Finding that could shed light on 'golden staph,' candida and allergies
Recent scientific findings explain why patients with a rare immunodeficiency disorder are unusually susceptible to certain common infections. By revealing the exact molecular mechanisms involved, they also give us clues as to why some 'healthy' people are more prone to these infections than others, and suggest potential treatments. view more (2008-07-01)
Chronic diseases linked to falls in elderly women
Elderly women with chronic diseases, such as arthritis and depression, are at higher risk of falling, finds a study in this week's BMJ. In fact, chronic diseases may account for 30% of falls in this group. Researchers at the University of Bristol surveyed 4,050 women aged 60-79 years about whether they had had a fall in the previous 12 months, how... view more... (2003-09-24)

New hereditary breast cancer gene discovered
A new hereditary breast cancer gene has been discovered by scientists at the Lundberg Laboratory for Cancer Research and the Plastic Surgery Clinic at the Sahlgrenska Academy in Sweden. view more (2007-04-26)
Link between assisted reproduction techniques and genetic disruption
Evidence that assisted reproduction techniques may carry a risk of genetic 'imprinting disorders' in the resulting babies, emerges in a study published in the Journal of Medical Genetics. To assess the likely risk of genetic disruption, geneticists from the University of Birmingham and the West Midlands Genetics Service assessed the birth... view more... (2003-01-14)
Study will examine how children with Down syndrome learn
Researchers at the University of Denver (DU) Morgridge College of Education are conducting a groundbreaking study that will compare two early literacy intervention approaches to educating young children with Down syndrome. view more (2008-10-27)
Periods worsen irritable bowel symptoms
Having a period significantly worsens symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and lowers pain thresholds, finds research in Gut. view more (2002-03-11)
Vibrating computer games should carry health warnings
Prolonged use of vibrating computer games by children may be linked to a condition known as hand-arm vibration syndrome and should carry health warnings, suggest researchers in this week's BMJ. view more (2002-01-30)
