Increase in carbon dioxide emissions accelerating
New research shows the rate of increase in carbon dioxide emissions more than doubled since the 1990s. "From 2000 to 2005, the gro...The use of e-prescribing and electronic health records is accelerating
On October 11, 2005, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") and the Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General ("OIG") published separate, but parallel, proposed rules representing a unified effort to advance the goal of widespread adoption of electronic health records technologies by hospitals, physicians, and other health care providers....Protein Linked To Accelerating Rheumatoid Arthritis

Boffins at the Scripps Research Institute have found in animal models just how great a role the protein pleiotrophin (PTN) plays in accelerating breast cancer . Until this study, the significance of pleiotrophin (PTN) expression in breast cancer had not been clearly established, and boffins are hopeful that the new findings could lead to a better understanding of the molecular pathog...
