Study may pave way for treatments to delay early multiple births
A treatment that prevents premature births in single pregnancies may be ineffective in women expecting more than one child, a study has shown. view more (2009-06-11)
Babies conceived with medical assistance face high risk at birth
Babies born following medically assisted reproduction face a much higher risk of problems at birth and death during delivery, compared with babies conceived naturally, say researchers in this week's BMJ - though the outcome for twins is better. In births involving a single baby, infants fared worse than babies conceived without medical help in... view more... (2004-01-23)
A genetic link to premature ejaculation
Premature ejaculation can be embarrassing, but a new study suggests that it might be a genetic disorder. view more (2009-05-28)
Genes are of little importance in rheumatoid arthritis
Genes are of little importance in the development of rheumatoid arthritis, finds a study in this week's BMJ. view more (2002-01-30)
Caesarean delivery of twins may prevent deaths
Second twins born at term are at higher risk of death due to complications during labour and delivery than first twins, but planned caesarean section may prevent such deaths, concludes a study in this week’s BMJ. view more (2002-10-30)
Twins have similar school performance to single-born children
Twins have similar academic performance to single-born children, finds a large Danish study published online by the BMJ today. view more (2006-09-29)
American research finds twins more likely to have premature menopause
In a study of more than 800 Australian and UK twin pairs, lead by Dr Roger Gosden, Professor of Reproductive Biology at Weill Medical College of Cornell University in New York, premature ovarian failure was between three and five times greater when measured at age 40 and age 45 than in the general population. view more (2006-10-25)
Twins have lower risk of suicide than general population
Twins have a lower risk of suicide compared with the general population, concludes a study in this week’s BMJ. view more (2003-08-12)
Study of twins finds genetic link to fatigue
Unexplained disabling fatigue in childhood is mainly due to genetic inheritance, a study of twins has revealed. view more (2006-09-08)
Multiple Sclerosis in genetically susceptible twins is augmented by the northern environment
A new study of twins suggests that living farther north of the equator significantly increases risk of developing Multiple Sclerosis (MS) among those with genetic susceptibility due to some environmental factor. view more (2006-08-11)
Researcher creates weight guidelines for women pregnant with twins
Healthy, normal-weight women pregnant with twins should gain between 37 and 54 pounds, according to research from a Michigan State University professor who helped shape the recently released national guidelines on gestational weight gain. view more (2009-07-22)
Rethinking the genetic theory of inheritance
Scientists at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) have detected evidence that DNA may not be the only carrier of heritable information; a secondary molecular mechanism called epigenetics may also account for some inherited traits and diseases. view more (2009-01-20)
Extended or shortened sleep duration linked to weight gain
Body Mass Index (BMI) varies as a function of habitual sleep duration, according to a research abstract that will be presented on Thursday, June 11, at SLEEP 2009, the 23rd Annual Meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies. view more (2009-06-11)
Parents of twins report more mental health symptoms than parents of singletons
Mothers and fathers of twins conceived either spontaneously or with assisted reproductive technology (ART) suffer more mental health symptoms after delivery and one year later than do parents of singleton babies. view more (2008-07-08)
Progesterone treatment does not prevent preterm birth in twin pregnancy
Progesterone therapy does not reduce the chances of preterm birth in women pregnant with twins, reported researchers in a network sponsored by the National Institutes of Health. view more (2007-08-02)
Divorce, antidepressants, or weight gain/loss can add years to your face
Your mother's wrinkles - or lack there of, may not be the best predictor of how you'll age. In fact, a new study claims just the opposite. The study, involving identical twins, suggests that despite genetic make-up, certain environmental factors can add years to a person's perceived age. view more (2009-02-04)
Indiana U researchers closer to finding a genetic cause of hearing loss in aging
Researchers at Indiana University School of Medicine have taken a step toward understanding the genetics that make people more susceptible to the loss of hearing as they age. view more (2006-05-17)
Early-onset depressive disorders predict the use of addictive substances in adolescence
In a prospective study of over 1800 interviewed young Finnish twins, early-onset depressive disorders at age 14 significantly predicted daily smoking, smokeless tobacco use, frequent illicit drug use, frequent alcohol use and recurrent intoxication three years later, even among those adolescents who were not users at baseline. view more (2008-10-22)
Size of a woman's uterus can predict whether she is at risk of having very premature twins after IVF
Using ultrasound to measure the height of a woman's uterus is a good way to predict whether or not she is at risk of having babies born prematurely if she becomes pregnant with twins after IVF. view more (2008-07-09)
Salt supplements vital for brain development of premature babies
Salt is critical to the brain development of premature babies, suggests research in the Fetal and Neonatal Edition. Language, memory, intelligence and coordination were all better in children, who had been born premature but whose diets had been supplemented with salt shortly after birth. view more (2002-03-04)
