Horphag's Prelox provides over-the-counter solution
For couples worldwide, erectile dysfunction (ED) is one of the leading contributors to a man's inability to perform. As millions of men in America each year look for a solution, many seek alternative treatments to prescription medications and surgery that may have dangerous side effects. view more (2007-12-04)
'Rotten eggs' in the blood
Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is a gas most commonly associated with the smell of stink bombs, sewage and rotten eggs, but a team of researchers from the Peninsula Medical School in the South West of England and King's College London have now identified a role for this gas in regulating blood pressure, according to research published today in the... view more...

Scientists Reveal Chemical Compound Linked To Increased Heart Risk
Scientists believe that they have found a chemical responsible for increasing cardiovascular risk, it was revealed. And crucially they have identified how it is made and destroyed in the body raising the possibilty that new drugs to reduce the risk of heart disease are around the corner. A team of scientists based at the new British Heart... view more... (2002-01-16)
University of Oregon researcher finds that on water's surface, nitric acid is not so tough
Nitric acid is a notoriously strong and chemically destructive compound found in water on earth and in our atmosphere. However, a team of researchers have found that its punch is much weaker when it sits on the top of a water surface. view more (2007-08-21)
Weill Cornell Team Discovers How Brain's Own tPA Helps Regulate Blood Flow to Neurons
The human brain contains its own store of a powerful enzyme (and stroke drug) called tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), which appears to be a key regulator of blood flow to brain cells, a team at the Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City reports. view more (2008-01-18)
New evidence of how high glucose damages blood vessels could lead to new treatments
New evidence of how the elevated glucose levels that occur in diabetes damage blood vessels may lead to novel strategies for blocking the destruction, Medical College of Georgia researchers say. view more (2009-05-12)
NO help: Nitric oxide monitoring does not help most children with asthma
The level of nitric oxide (NO) in an asthmatic's exhaled breath can portend worsening asthma symptoms, and may even signify an imminent attack linked to underlying airway inflammation. view more (2009-01-07)
Atherosclerosis studied at the cellular level

The danger of blindness after ophthalmic surgery
Ophthalmologists inject gas into the eye mainly during the surgical treatment of retinal hemorrhages or injuries. The purpose of the gas is to help press the detached retina to the wall of the eye. view more (2008-02-26)
Study may explain exercise-induced fatigue in muscular dystrophies
A University of Iowa study suggests that the prolonged fatigue after mild exercise that occurs in people with many forms of muscular dystrophy is distinct from the inherent muscle weakness caused by the disease. view more (2008-10-27)
Nitrous oxide from ocean microbes
A large amount of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide is produced by bacteria in the oxygen poor parts of the ocean using nitrites, Dr Mark Trimmer told journalists at a Science Media Centre press briefing today. view more (2007-12-11)
Cause of diabetes-related erectile dysfunction is clarified by Johns Hopkins researchers
A new study from the Brady Urological Institute at Johns Hopkins suggests an over-supply of a simple blood sugar could be a major cause of erectile dysfunction in diabetic men. view more (2005-08-10)
Study links high levels of nitric oxide to infertility and sperm DNA damage
Iranian scientists have linked a chemical that plays an essential role in many bodily functions to sperm DNA damage and male infertility. view more (2006-06-19)
Too little attention is paid to the side effects of emission-limiting measures
With measures aimed at reducing the emission of pollutants such as ammonia, policy makers pay too little attention to the consequences for the emission of other substances. This is revealed in a computer model constructed by Corjan Brink from Wageningen University during his doctoral research. For example, the model shows that reducing the amount... view more...

LAUGHING GAS - A FASHIONABLE RECREATIONAL DRUG? (p 1347)
Issue 19 April 2003 Embargoed 0001 h (London time) 18 April 2003 New Zealand authors of a research letter in this week's issue of THE LANCET report how laughing gas may be a popular recreational drug among young people. This could have implications for public health, as a case report in THE LANCET last year highlighted how excessive use of... view more... (2003-04-16)
Hydrogen found to transmit magnetism
A team of chemists and physicists at the Universities of Liverpool and Oxford have shown that hydrogen transmits magnetism. This discovery could be the first step to a new class of magnetic materials, and opens up a new field of chemistry. The team, headed by Professor Matthew Rosseinsky of the Department of Chemistry, University of Liverpool, and... view more... (2002-03-07)
Higher nitric oxide levels increase survival in ALI/ARDS trial
In a large-scale, multi-center trial of patients with acute lung injury (ALI) or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), researchers showed that higher levels of nitric oxide (NO) in patient urine were strongly associated with improved survival, more ventilator-free days, and decreased rates of organ failure. view more (2007-02-01)
