Oral contraceptives may benefit women with asthma
New research shows that during natural menstrual cycles, women with asthma who were not taking oral contraceptives (OC) had lower exhaled nitric oxide levels (eNO), a marker of airway inflammation associated with asthma, than women who were taking OC. view more (2009-11-05)
Lung damage in babies with congenital heart disease under study
Trying to understand and stop the collateral lung damage that can occur in babies with congenital heart disease is the focus of a new study. view more (2008-03-11)
Cholesterol byproduct blocks heart health benefits of estrogen
New findings by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers show that a byproduct of cholesterol metabolism interferes with the beneficial effects estrogen has on the cardiovascular system, providing a better understanding of the interplay between cholesterol and estrogen in heart disease. view more (2007-09-17)
EU invests 10.7 million Euro on EICOSANOX-a top-ranking project led from Karolinska Institutet
A decision has now been taken on the grant that the EU's Sixth Framework Programme is to provide for EICOSANOX, a major research project coordinated by Karolinska Institutet's Professor Jesper Z. Haeggström. The project, which ranked highest in its category, is an Integrated Project (IP) and is to be allocated research funding of 10.7 million... view more... (2005-02-13)
Watermelon May Have Viagra-Effect
A cold slice of watermelon has long been a Fourth of July holiday staple. But according to recent studies, the juicy fruit may be better suited for Valentine's Day. view more (2008-07-01)
A gas, Viagra and sex in plants - researchers at the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ci'™ncia have found a link
Viagra affects growth of the male sex organ of plants, by intensifying the effect of nitric oxide during plant fertilization. This discovery, made by the Plant Development team at the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ci'™ncia(IGC), in Portugal, will be published in Development, in June. The study, led by José Feij'³, takes a step further in... view more... (2004-05-11)

Mayo Clinic discovery may help diabetic gastric problem
Mayo Clinic researchers have found what may provide a solution to one of the more troubling complications of diabetes -- delayed gastric emptying or gastroparesis. view more (2008-09-26)
Optical 'frequency comb' can detect the breath of disease
Exhale on a cold winter day and you will see the water vapor coming out of your mouth. Light up your breath with a Nobel-Prize-related tool, and you could potentially detect trace amounts of over 1,000 compounds, some of which provide early warning signs of disease. view more (2008-02-20)
Scientists breed special rats to learn more about hypertension
Scientists at Wake Forest University School of Medicine have created a better research rat - the first to enable them to study how declining estrogen after menopause can affect hypertension, heart failure and kidney damage. view more (2005-09-23)
NOAA study shows nitrous oxide now top ozone-depleting emission
Nitrous oxide has now become the largest ozone-depleting substance emitted through human activities, and is expected to remain the largest throughout the 21st century, NOAA scientists say in a new study. view more (2009-08-28)
Research points to more effective catalyst materials for petrochemical industry
Nickel oxide is a very important chemical in modern industrial processes. It is commonly used as a catalyst within the petrochemical industry in areas like the synthesis of olefin gas and the reforming reaction of methane. view more (2006-05-12)
No laughing matter -- bacteria are releasing a serious greenhouse gas
Unlike carbon dioxide and methane, laughing gas has been largely ignored by world leaders as a worrying greenhouse gas. But nitrous oxide must be taken more seriously. view more (2008-03-31)
Argonne scientists discover networks of metal nanoparticles are culprits in alloy corrosion
Oxide scales are supposed to protect alloys from extensive corrosion, but scientists at U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory have discovered metal nanoparticle chinks in this armor. view more (2008-08-05)

Administering inhaled nitric oxide (NO) during surgery helps protect liver transplant patients from organ failure, according to a new study from researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). view more (2007-08-30)
Muscular dystrophy mystery solved; Mizzou scientist moves closer to MD solution
Muscular dystrophy, which affects approximately 250,000 people in the United States, occurs when damaged muscle tissue is replaced with fibrous, bony or fatty tissue and loses function. view more (2009-02-27)
Cerium oxide nanotubes get noticed
Chemists and materials scientists often study "nanotubes" - capsule-shaped molecules only a few billionths of a meter (nanometers) in width. view more (2006-03-29)
Multicenter study led by pitt finds early results of therapy for preemies not sustained
Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO), a therapy used in the treatment of premature newborns with respiratory failure that had shown promising results in short-term studies, does not significantly improve long-term outcomes, according to a national study led by critical care researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and Children's... view more...
