Pulmonary Hypertension Discriminates by Race, Gender

...hysicians (ACCP), revealed that racial disparities exist in pulmonary hypertension mortality and morbidity, with African-American women exhibiting the highest mortality rate when compared with all other groups. “Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension, by definition, means that there is no clear attrib...

Cognitive decline in the elderly people often goes undiagnosed

...cording to Dr. Inouye's paper, no previous studies exist that establish just how much change in cognitive function regularly occurs in older patients or how it impacts their care. The subtle cognitive decline that she examined is referred to as recoverable cognitive dysfunction (RCD) and is determined by t...

Sports Cheats Beware - New Test To Detect Synacthen Found

... medical treatment is banned. Though some tests exist for detecting injected hormones, there has been no test that could detect it in a blood sample. But the scenario is changing now. Research published this week in Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry describes a method that can detect synacthen, ...

Scientists Uncover Complex Workings of Sperm

... of the 381 proteins they have now identified also exist in the human sperm cell. "This is the first catalogue of sperm proteins for any organism, and it offers a tantalizing glimpse into how we might begin to answer some of the most fundamental questions in biology," Tim Kerr, a biologist at the univers...

Gene Therapy Shows Promise Against Hereditary Lung Disease

...ssociated virus; about 200 variations of the virus exist in nature. “We have another version of the virus that appears in animal studies to be close to a thousandfold more potent at making protein,” Flotte said. “That’s very encouraging to us. So the next trial, which has already begun, is to use the new...

A New Research Explores Connection Between Emotionality And Alcoholism

...ikely that these brain measures are trait-like and exist prior to the development of problems. An important next step in this line of research would be to see whether the same is true of frontal brain activity in alcoholism, possibly by looking at the children of alcoholics. If these patterns of brain a...

Octogenarians Are Not Too Old for Cancer Surgery

A variety of treatment options exist for this traditionally slow-growing cancer, including hormone therapy, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, cryotherapy, surgery and expectant management (“watchful waiting”). JAMA reported in 2000 that urologists typically offer a radical prostatectomy ...

Researchers Create Genetically-Matched Embryonic Stem Cells for Transplantation

... technique is only applicable to females. (Methods exist for deriving embryonic stem cells using sperm from men, but these techniques are as technically challenging and inefficient as somatic cell nuclear transfer, Daley says.) There are also potential safety concerns. Embryonic stem cells created throug...

Tissue compatibility issues exist for all patients receiving transplanted organs, but rejection risks are dramatically increased for those with high exposure to “non-self” human leukocyte antigens (HLAs). Exposure may come through blood transfusions, previous transplantation or even ...
