Member of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the Public University of Navarre (Basque Country), Jes'ºs M™ Corres Sanz, has suggested a new method which enables, amongst other applications, response enhancement to perturbations in electrical machines such as those... view more (2004-03-16)

Fathers influence child language development more than mothers
In families with two working parents, fathers had greater impact than mothers on their children's language development between ages 2 and 3, according to a study by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's Frank Porter Graham (FPG) Child Development Institute and UNC's School of Education.   view more (2006-10-31)

Differing attitudes found between women and doctors concerning menstrual suppression
More than the two thirds of the women in a national survey say that they are interested in suppressing their menstrual periods but many of them aren't sure if it's safe.   view more (2007-10-04)

Transplant cures rats' type 2 diabetes without need for immune suppression drugs
An approach proven to cure a rat model of type 1 or juvenile-onset diabetes also works in a rat model of type 2 or adult-onset diabetes.   view more (2006-09-13)

Researchers resolve how COX inhibitors cause heart hazards, and offer alternative treatment strategy
Inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were developed to relieve inflammatory pain as effectively as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), but without one of their major side effects, gastrointestinal bleeding.   view more (2006-04-14)

Increased cognitive control in Tourette's syndrome
Though the repetitive vocal and motor tics characteristic of Tourette's syndrome may suggest an inability to control involuntary actions at the cognitive level, researchers have now found evidence that young people with Tourette's syndrome actually exhibit a greater level of cognitive control over... view more (2006-03-21)

Breast Cancer, Prognostic Factors, Mortality, Recurrence
Tumor Grade, Age at Diagnosis of First Tumor, and Duration Without Cancer Predict the Risk of Death After a Local Recurrence of Breast Cancer   view more (2002-05-16)

Having a stable partner delays AIDS in HIV patients
For people with HIV, having a stable partner is associated with slower rate of progression to AIDS or death, finds a study in this week's BMJ. Researchers in Switzerland followed 3,736 adults with HIV who had started highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) before 2002. Every six months,... view more (2004-01-03)

Documenting a paradox: smoke decreases rainfall but ultimately increases its intensity
Air pollution and smoke suppress rainfall, but cause the remaining rain amounts to fall in greater intensities, with lightning and hail, says a researcher at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The researcher, Prof. Daniel Rosenfeld, was one of a group of scientists that included also participants... view more (2004-02-25)

Pathogen virulence proteins suppress plant immunity
Researchers from the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute (VBI) at Virginia Tech and their colleagues have identified a key function of a large family of virulence proteins that play an important role in the production of infectious disease by the plant pathogen Phytophthora sojae.   view more (2008-04-22)

Infliximab Could Prevent Sight Loss From Behcet's Disease (p 295)
A drug used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease could play an important role in preventing sight loss associated with the inflammatory disorder Behcet's disease, suggest authors of a fast-track research letter published in this week's issue of THE LANCET. Beh'§et's disease is a rare... view more (2001-07-25)

UC Davis researchers identify a cellular pathway that makes prostate cancer fatal
Expanding evidence that tiny strands of RNA - called microRNAs - play big roles in the progress of some cancers, UC Davis researchers have identified one that helps jump start prostate cancer cell growth midway through the disease process, eventually causing it to become fatal.   view more (2007-11-28)

Research finds that culture is key to interpreting facial emotions
Research has uncovered that culture is a determining factor when interpreting facial emotions. The study reveals that in cultures where emotional control is the standard, such as Japan, focus is placed on the eyes to interpret emotions.   view more (2007-04-05)

Coastal retreat in face of rising sea levels found to be influenced by wildfires
The retreat of coastlines due to rising sea levels may be accelerated by wildfires, a Duke University researcher has discovered.   view more (2005-10-18)

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory scientists discover new gene that prevents multiple types of cancer
A decades-old cancer mystery has been solved by researchers at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL). "We not only found a critical tumor suppressor gene, but have revealed a master switch for a tumor suppressive network that means more targeted and effective cancer therapy in the future,"... view more (2007-02-12)

Two Genes Are Important Key to Regulating Immune Response
A research team at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City has identified two genes that may be crucial to the production of an immune system cytokine called interleukin-10 (IL-10).   view more (2008-01-02)

Survey highlights 'crucial' safety issues in rhinitis treatment, particularly in children
Children may be at risk of receiving rhinitis treatment that suppresses growth - but the problem can be avoided through careful selection of treatment. This was the overwhelming message emerging from a recent nationwide survey of ENT specialists. According to the findings, the vast majority (91%)... view more (2001-06-28)

Resistance to anti-HIV drugs in Uganda developed due to drug supply problems
Some HIV-infected patients in Uganda who self-paid for their antiretroviral medications experienced interruptions in drug supply due to either financial demands or supply logistical disruptions.   view more (2007-04-23)

Lipids play important role in nervous system development
Blocking a signaling lipid can keep nerves from developing the arm-like extensions they need to wire the body and may even cause neurons to die, researchers have found.   view more (2005-10-25)

Another gene rearrangement involved in prostate cancer identified
Researchers at the University of Michigan Medical School have identified a third gene involved in prostate cancer, expanding their groundbreaking announcement, published last October in Science, that the majority of prostate cancers carry a malignancy-inducing fusion of genes never before seen in... view more (2006-04-04)
