Brain-damaged children often have cold feet
Many wheelchair-using children with neurological disorders have much colder hands and feet than other children, and most receive no special help even though they have had these problems for a long time, is revealed in at thesis from the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. view more (2009-10-20)
Research casts doubt on controversial scientific theory
Scientists at the University of Sheffield have cast doubt on the validity of the controversial theory of biological cold fusion, the principle sometimes used to lend credence to the practice of selling silicon tablets to strengthen bones, on the assumption that the body will turn the silicon into calcium. view more (2003-05-07)
Smokers likely to develop mouth ulcers and cold symptoms up to two weeks after quitting
Smokers develop mouth ulcers and cold symptoms for up to two weeks after giving up their habit, reveals research in Tobacco Control. The body's backlash could deter many ex-smokers from staying the course, unless they know what to expect, suggest the authors. One hundred and seventy four smokers were assessed one week before giving up smoking and... view more... (2003-02-21)
New study explains why hotter is better for insects
Organisms have been able to adapt to environments ranging from cold polar oceans to hot thermal vents. However, University of Washington researchers have discovered a limit to the powerful forces of natural selection, at least when it comes to the adaptation of insects to cold temperatures. view more (2006-10-03)

A more silent and ecological refrigerator with more precise temperature maintenance
The Thermal Engineering group of researchers at the Public University of Navarre is working on the design of a domestic thermoelectric refrigerator. Unlike the conventional system of producing a cold environment - by vapour compression - the thermoelectricity used in the design of this refrigerator allows the manufacture of more compact and... view more...

Crossing paths in plants
On Monday 31 March ecologists will meet with molecular biologists at the University of Southampton for the most novel and broad-ranging scientific session of its kind. They will present findings in Session C5/P3 which show that the biochemical pathways which influence a plant's response to stimuli such as attack, disease or other stresses are not... view more...

'Hot' surgical techniques could increase postoperative haemorrhage after tonsillectomy (pp 642, 697)
The postoperative haemorrhage rate in tonsillectomies which use 'hot techniques' such as diathermy and coblation to stop bleeding could be over three times greater than operations which use cold steel techniques, conclude authors of a study in this week's issue of THE LANCET. Tonsillectomy is one of the most common surgical procedures.... view more... (2004-08-18)
Canadian study of colds and kids: Positive safety results for ginseng extract
Positive findings of a safety study involving children and a highly touted botanical extract (COLD-fX) show promise for its future development for kids as a Canadian cold and flu remedy. The results appear in the August, 2008 issue of Pediatrics - the official journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics. view more (2008-08-04)
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols features methods to screen genomes and analyze evolution

Temperature at birth linked to health later in life
Cold outdoor temperature at birth is associated with increased coronary heart disease and insulin resistance, high cholesterol levels, and poor lung function in later life, suggests a study in Heart. This link was strongest among those from the lowest social and economic classes. Researchers examined the effects of average outdoor temperature... view more... (2004-03-09)
Europeans Will Adjust To Global Warming But Will Still Die Of Cold
(Heat related mortality in warm and cold regions of Europe: observational study) BMJ Volume 321, pp 670 - 673 (Editorial : Saving lives in extreme weather in summer : pp 650 ? 651) Heat related deaths start at higher temperatures in hot regions of Europe compared to cold regions, suggesting that people have adjusted successfully to differences in... view more...
