Family structure size could affect breast cancer risk prediction accuracy for BRCA gene testing
Researchers have found that the probability of the breast cancer gene mutation BRCA among women with a history of breast cancer is greater when the number of older, female relatives in the family is smaller. view more (2007-06-20)
Researchers at Barrow Neurological Institute resolve 40-year eye movement, visibility controversy
For more than 40 years, a scientific controversy has raged over whether microsaccades, rapid eye movements that occur when a person's gaze is fixated, are responsible for visibility. view more (2006-01-20)
QBI scientist looks at why stroke causes vision problems
The research, by QBI neuroscientist Professor Jason Mattingley and colleagues at the University of Melbourne and University College London, has implications for understanding "spatial neglect", a disorder associated with damage to the brain's parietal lobe - an area that plays an important role in integrating sensory information from... view more...

UI research aims to help patients with spinal cord injury
Richard Shields, Ph.D., University of Iowa professor in the Graduate Program in Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science, can foresee a time when it might be possible to cure spinal cord injury (SCI). view more (2006-04-06)
Successes in frozen ovarian tissue technology may offer hope to women being treated for cancer
Berlin, Germany: Doctors in Denmark have succeeded in producing a two-cell embryo after ovarian tissue was removed, frozen, and then thawed and replaced two years later. It is believed that this is the first time a European group has succeeded in creating an embryo in this way. Dr Claus Yding Andersen told the 20th annual conference of the... view more...

Quicker and easier rehabilitation following a stroke
By artificially vibrating certain muscle parts, the brain areas and neuronal pathways responsible for movement can be trained. This has the potential to help stroke patients recover their mobility more quickly. These are the results of PhD research by Maarten Steyvers of the Department of Kinesiology, K.U.Leuven. view more (2004-06-11)
Vitamin C injections slow tumor growth in mice
High-dose injections of vitamin C, also known as ascorbate or ascorbic acid, reduced tumor weight and growth rate by about 50 percent in mouse models of brain, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers, researchers from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) report in the August 5, 2008, issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. view more (2008-08-05)
A Walk In The Park A Day Keeps Mental Fatigue Away
If you spend the majority of your time among stores, restaurants and skyscrapers, it may be time to trade in your stilettos for some hiking boots. view more (2008-12-19)
Previous claims of siRNA therapeutic effects called into question by report in human gene therapy
The many recent reports documenting the therapeutic efficacy of short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in animal models of human disease may actually be describing non-specific therapeutic effects related to the ability of siRNA to activate an immune response, according to a paper in the September 2008 issue (Volume 19, Number 9) of Human Gene Therapy, a... view more...

Risk of breast cancer mutations underestimated for Asian women, Stanford study shows
Oncologist Allison Kurian, MD, and her colleagues at the Stanford University School of Medicine were perplexed. Computer models designed to identify women who might have dangerous genetic mutations that increase their risk of breast and ovarian cancer worked well for white women. But they seemed to be less reliable for another ethnic group. view more (2008-09-12)
Electronic chip, interacting with the brain, modifies pathways for controlling movement
Researchers at the University of Washington (UW) are working on an implantable electronic chip that may help establish new nerve connections in the part of the brain that controls movement. view more (2006-10-25)
The sweet spot? UF doctors test targets for Parkinson surgery
Doctors may be able to tailor a specialized form of brain surgery to more closely match the needs of Parkinson patients, according to results from the first large-scale effort to compare the two current target areas of deep brain stimulation surgery, or DBS. view more (2009-03-16)
Rush Researchers Explore Use of Nanotechnology as Diagnostic and Screening Tool for Women's Health
Nanotechnology is revolutionizing the way things are constructed - from stain resistant clothing to stronger, yet lighter tennis rackets. view more (2006-08-15)
Nerve stimulation therapy alleviates pain for chronic headache
A novel therapy using a miniature nerve stimulator instead of medication for the treatment of profoundly disabling headache disorders improved the experience of pain by 80-95 percent, according to a new study from the University of California, San Francisco and the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London. view more (2008-10-10)
Depression: New therapy gives reason for hope
A study at the University Clinics of Bonn and Cologne gives people with therapy-resistant depression reason for hope. The doctors treated two men and a woman with what is known as deep brain stimulation. view more (2007-04-19)
Brain region that can be stimulated to reduce the cognitive deficits of sleep deprivation identified
A Columbia University Medical Center research team has uncovered how stimulation of a particular brain region can help stave off the deficits in working memory, associated with an extended sleep deprivation. view more (2008-02-04)
Cell skeleton may hold key to overcoming drug resistance in cancer
Researchers have uncovered a new way in which a cell protein protects cancer cells from a wide range of chemotherapeutic drugs, identifying a possible target for improving treatment outcomes for patients. view more (2007-10-04)
Pregnancy and tobacco a 'smoking gun' for baby: Study
Monash University researchers have shown that babies born to a mother who smokes are more likely to be slower to wake or respond to stimulation - and this may explain their increased risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). view more (2009-04-03)
Media Availability: Low-Fat Dietary Pattern May Lower Risk of Ovarian Cancer -- The WHI Dietary Modification Trial
A diet low in fat could reduce the risk of ovarian cancer in healthy postmenopausal women, according to new results from the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) Dietary Modification Trial. Researchers found that after four years, women who decreased the amount of dietary fat they consumed were 40 percent less likely to develop ovarian cancer than... view more... (2007-10-10)
University of Louisville neuroscientists hope to get people walking again
Neuroscience researchers at the University of Louisville will be the only team collaborating with an international group of scientists that last week announced they had enabled paralyzed rats to walk while supporting their own weight. view more (2009-10-02)
