Researchers study the possible relationship between myopathies and coeliac disease
Inflammatory myopathies are immunological diseases that lead to inflammations in muscular tissue. As of yet, little is known about the cause of these myopathies, but it is believed to be an abnormal immune response by our bodies. view more (2007-02-23)
Dangerous duo: Hostility plus depression elevates risk for heart disease
Researchers led by Jesse Stewart, Ph.D., assistant professor of psychology at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, report that hostility and depression appear to act together in a complex way to elevate inflammatory proteins in the human body, possibly putting hostility plus depression on the list of risk factors for heart disease... view more...

Arthritis Drug Helps Debilitating Inflammatory Disease
For children and young adults who suffer from a rare and debilitating disorder called neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID), a drug called anakinra brings marked improvement both in symptoms and the inflammation underlying the disease, a new study shows. view more (2006-08-11)
Improved diagnostic technology for Crohn's disease
The diagnostic value of CT enteroclysis is superior to conventional enteroclysis, previously considered the gold standard, as an imaging method for the evaluation of the small bowel in patients with Crohn's disease, a new study shows. view more (2006-01-31)
Biochip for detection of inflammatory bowel disease
At the III International Symposium on Advanced Therapy for Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease, held in Madrid, the biotechnological company, Progenika, presented a DNA-chip the purpose of which is the optimisation of the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease and Ulcerous Colitis). view more (2005-01-26)
Early signs that statins could help in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (pp 2011, 2015)
Results of a UK study in this week's issue of THE LANCET suggest that the anti-inflammatory effect of statins (a class of cholesterol-lowering drugs) could be effective in relieving symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. The inflammatory nature of rheumatoid arthritis puts sufferers at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.... view more... (2004-06-16)
Inflammatory bowel disease is a risk factor for thrombosis
People with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are more than three times as likely to develop blood clots in their veins (venous thromboembolism), finds new research in Gut. Thromboembolism is a serious and potentially life threatening event. For many years, patients with IBD were thought to be at increased risk, but the evidence has been... view more... (2004-03-09)
Small molecules may explain psoriasis
A research team at the Swedish medical university Karolinska Institutet has shown for the time that microRNA, small RNA molecules, may play an important role in the development of inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis and atopic eczema. view more (2007-07-12)
Inflammation markers linked more with fatal than nonfatal cardiovascular events in elderly
A study published this week in the open access journal PLoS Medicine shows that for elderly people at risk of cardiovascular disease, the presence of inflammatory markers in the blood can identify that an individual is at a higher risk of a fatal rather than a non-fatal heart attack or stroke. view more (2009-06-23)
Anti-inflammatory drug blocks brain plaques
Brain destruction in Alzheimer's disease is caused by the build-up of a protein called amyloid beta in the brain, which triggers damaging inflammation and the destruction of nerve cells. view more (2008-06-24)
Looking at autoimmune diabetes, literally
A major problem for understanding and treating type1 diabetes is that we are unable to directly, but non-invasively, visualize the inflammatory lesions in the pancreas that cause the disease. view more (2005-08-19)
Carbon monoxide soothes inflammatory bowel disease
Doctors have long known that smokers rarely suffer from a common form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) called ulcerative colitis, but they didn't know why. view more (2005-12-19)
Asthma risk increased in women with high levels of fat tissue inflammatory protein
Women with high levels of an inflammatory protein produced by fat tissue are at significantly increased risk of asthma, finds research in published ahead of print in Thorax. view more (2006-03-15)

RESEARCH AIMS TO HELP THOSE WITH CHRONIC LUNG DISEASE
The Novartis Horsham Research Centre has awarded a grant of £143,846 to William MacNee, Professor of Respiratory and Environmental Medicine, to investigate COPD with a view to helping develop anti-inflammatory therapy for the condition. view more (1999-06-21)
Novel genetic finding offers new avenue for future Crohn's disease treatment
Researchers from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine identified a novel link between ITCH, a gene known to regulate inflammation in the body and NOD2, a gene which causes the majority of genetic Crohn's Disease diagnoses. view more (2009-07-10)
Left handers at twice the risk of inflammatory bowel disease
Left handers seem to be at twice the risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, suggests research in Gut. The research focused on two national groups of people born in 1958 and 1970 in Great Britain, who were monitored by questionnaire at the ages of 26 and 33. Handedness was determined from hand... view more... (2001-07-11)
