Malaria Parasites Develop in Lymph Nodes
In the first quantitative, real-time imaging study of the travels of the malaria parasite Plasmodium through mammalian tissue, researchers at the Pasteur Institute in Paris found the parasites developing in an unexpected place: the lymph nodes. view more (2006-01-23)
'GreeneChip' — New diagnostic tool that rapidly and accurately identifies multiple pathogens
Researchers in the Greene Infectious Disease Laboratory at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and their colleagues in the WHO Global Laboratory Network have developed a new tool for pathogen surveillance and discovery-the GreeneChip System. view more (2006-12-06)
Scientists decode genome of parasite that causes relapsing malaria
Scientists have deciphered the complete genetic sequence of the parasite Plasmodium vivax, the leading cause of relapsing malaria, and compared it with the genomes of other species of malaria parasites. view more (2008-10-09)
New technique improves outcome for living donor liver transplants
The University of Alberta Hospital (UAH) is one of only a few centers in Canada that perform living donor liver transplantation, a surgical procedure developed in the late 1980s that expands the organ donor pool. About 80 liver transplants are done a year in Alberta, 10 of those being living-donor. view more (2008-03-19)
The right kind of oil
Children who cannot eat on their own because of intestinal failure must rely on parenteral nutrition (PN), an intravenous method of feeding. view more (2006-07-05)
Malnutrition and obesity increasingly co-exist in global community
While nutritional status has improved worldwide over the past fifty years, new nutrition-related problems have also emerged. view more (2005-08-04)
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)
New method shows mushrooms a top source for one antioxidant
Using a new, more sensitive-testing approach they developed for fungi, Penn State food scientists have found that mushrooms are a better natural source of the antioxidant ergothioneine than either of the two dietary sources previously believed to be best. view more (2005-09-01)
Problem of emerging infectious diseases likely to worsen
Emerging infectious diseases pose a global threat to human and animal health, and the problem is likely to worsen, warns an expert in this week's BMJ. view more (2005-11-28)
Gene therapy advance treats hemophilia in mouse models
A virus that typically infects insects could help with the development of gene therapy treatment for Hemophilia A, a condition in which even a bump on the knee can cause serious internal bleeding in people. view more (2005-08-23)
Gazelles shrink liver and heart to reduce oxygen consumption during drought
How do gazelles and other large desert mammals adjust their physiology to survive when food and water are in short supply? view more (2006-06-09)
Dogs keep dying: Too many owners remain unaware of toxic dog food
Even though Diamond, Country Value and Professional brand dog foods have been recalled for containing highly toxic aflatoxins, they have caused at least 100 dog deaths in recent weeks, say Cornell University veterinarians, who are growing increasingly alarmed. view more (2006-01-09)
Marine pathogens spread much faster than their terrestrial counterparts
It has become increasingly clear that pathogen epidemics are as significant a component of marine systems as they are in terrestrial systems. At an National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) working group on Diseases in the Ocean, McCallum, Harvell and Dobson collated data on epidemic spread from both terrestrial and marine... view more...

Genes hold the key to how happy we are, scientists say
Happiness in life is as much down to having the right genetic mix as it is to personal circumstances according to a recent study. view more (2008-03-05)
Early feeding could help reduce liver dysfunction in critically ill patients
Changing the way that critically ill patients suffering from sepsis or multiple organ failure are fed could reduce liver dysfunction. view more (2007-01-29)
Feedback loop found that could forestall liver disease
Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have discovered that the small intestine communicates with the liver to control the production of bile acids-a finding that has great medical implications in treating people at risk for certain types of liver disease. view more (2005-10-12)
Sweat may pass on hepatitis B in contact sports
Sweat may be another way to pass on hepatitis B infection during contact sports, suggests research published ahead of print in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. view more (2007-03-02)
Severe sleep apnea may be a risk factor for liver damage
Many patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are obese and therefore at risk of having fatty liver, a condition in which fat accumulates in the liver cells. But the link between OSA and liver injury independent of weight has yet to be examined. view more (2005-05-25)
Most chronic hepatitis C sufferers will develop cirrhosis in later life
Nearly 80 percent of chronic hepatitis C sufferers who have the disease for several decades will develop cirrhosis or end-stage liver disease later in life. view more (2005-09-01)
New technique adds precision and permanence to gene therapy
Mount Sinai School of Medicine researchers cured PKU in mice with new gene therapy technique. view more (2005-10-11)
