Vitamin D supplements may offer cheap and effective immune system boost against TB
Scientists have shown that a single 2.5mg dose of vitamin D may be enough to boost the immune system to fight against tuberculosis (TB) and similar bacteria for at least 6 weeks. view more (2007-05-16)
Heart failure worsens with anemia, increases risk of death
Low hemoglobin levels are a predictor of increased risk of death and complications among heart failure patients, according to a report in Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association. view more (2005-08-17)
New ways to prevent stroke and reduce excess iron in sickle cell anemia
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital will lead a national Phase III clinical trial to investigate whether a new combination treatment can prevent a secondary stroke in children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) and eliminate the need for nightly injections with a drug that reduces iron overload in these patients. view more (2005-09-01)
New study closes in on geologic history of Earth's deep interior
By using a super-computer to virtually squeeze and heat iron-bearing minerals under conditions that would have existed when the Earth crystallized from an ocean of magma to its solid form 4.5 billion years ago, two UC Davis geochemists have produced the first picture of how different isotopes of iron were initially distributed in the solid Earth. view more (2009-06-16)
Iron-arsenic superconductors in class of their own
Physicists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory have experimentally demonstrated that the superconductivity mechanism in the recently-discovered iron-arsenide superconductors is unique compared to all other known classes of superconductors. view more (2009-04-30)
NASA satellite detects red glow to map global ocean plant health
Researchers have conducted the first global analysis of the health and productivity of ocean plants, as revealed by a unique signal detected by a NASA satellite. view more (2009-05-29)
Getting to the core of the problem - CMD19CMMP with
Using the equations of quantum mechanics, which normally govern the bizarre physics that occurs at tiny atomic scales, has enabled geophysicists to answer a much larger-scale question - what the Earth`s core is made from. At the Condensed Matter physics conference on Tuesday 9 April, part of the Institute of Physics Congress in Brighton, Prof Mike... view more... (2002-03-26)
Argonne scientists prove unconventional superconductivity in new iron arsenide compounds
Scientists at U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory used inelastic neutron scattering to show that superconductivity in a new family of iron arsenide superconductors cannot be explained by conventional theories. view more (2009-01-13)
Preserving a 460 year old wreck
An international team of researchers has analysed the sulphur and iron composition in the wooden timbers of the Mary Rose, an English warship wrecked in 1545, which was salvaged two decades ago. view more (2005-09-28)
Scientist proposes explanation for puzzling property of night-shining clouds at the edge of space
An explanation for a strange property of noctilucent clouds--thin, wispy clouds hovering at the edge of space at 85 km altitude--has been proposed by an experimental plasma physicist at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), possibly laying to rest a decades-long mystery. view more (2008-09-26)
Ecologists, material scientists pursue genetics of diatom's elegant, etched casing
Diatoms - some of which are so tiny that 30 can fit across the width of a human hair - are so numerous that they are among the key organisms taking the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide out of the Earth's atmosphere. view more (2008-01-24)
Iron Fertilisation Of The Ocean Raises The Food Supply Of Marine Animals And Transports Carbon Dioxide To The Deep Ocean
An international team of scientists that recently carried out an experiment in the South Atlantic on board RV „Polarstern" of the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research has found that an algal bloom induced by iron fertilisation transported carbon dioxide to the deep ocean. The bloom also stimulated growth of zooplankton... view more... (2004-04-05)
HIV positive employees face job loss and workplace discrimination
HIV positive employees face unemployment and workplace discrimination, indicates a study published ahead of print in Occupational and Environmental Medicine. view more (2007-10-03)
Increased risk of coronary heart disease among UK Indian Asians may be genetic
The increased rates of premature coronary heart disease among UK Indian Asians may be due to genetic or other as yet undiscovered risk factors, rather than the usual suspects, suggests research in Heart. view more (1999-04-26)
Researchers collaborate to find new vaccine technology decreases E. coli in beef cattle
Despite millions of dollars spent on food safety research over the last 10 years, ground beef recalls due to E. coli O157:H7 were higher in 2007 than in 2006, according to researchers from Kansas State University and West Texas A&M University. E. coli O157:H7 has been linked to foodborne illnesses in humans after consuming contaminated beef... view more... (2008-02-28)
Researchers probe a DNA repair enzyme
U. of I. researchers have taken the first steps toward understanding how an enzyme repairs DNA. Enzymes called helicases play a key role in human health, according to Maria Spies, a University of Illinois biochemistry professor. view more (2008-02-19)
Researchers show how obesity causes breakdown in system which regulates appetite and weight
New research led by scientists at the Oregon National Primate Research Center demonstrates how obesity causes the breakdown of a brain system that regulates appetite. view more (2007-03-07)
UCLA develops safer, more effective TB vaccine for HIV-positive people
UCLA scientists engineered a new tuberculosis (TB) vaccine specifically designed for HIV-positive people that was shown to be safer and more potent than the current TB vaccine in preclinical trials. view more (2008-10-24)
Lavas from Hawaiian volcano contain fingerprint of planetary formation
Hikers visiting the Kilauea Iki crater in Hawaii today walk along a mostly flat surface of sparsely vegetated basalt. It looks like parking lot asphalt, but in November and December 1959, it emitted the orange glow of newly erupted lava. view more (2008-06-20)
Rochester study rolls out RU-486 to treat uterine fibroids
Low doses of the drug mifepristone shrink uterine fibroid tumors and greatly improve the quality of life in women who suffer from pain and heavy bleeding. view more (2006-12-07)
