Adding Radiation Therapy To Chemotherapy Improves Survival In Patients With High-risk Breast Cancer
For patients with high-risk breast cancer treated with radical mastectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy, the addition of radiation therapy leads to better survival outcomes with few long-term toxic effects, according to a 20-year follow-up of a randomized trial, which appears in the January 19 issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. The British Columbia randomized radiation the...Genes In The Interferon System Important In Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Two genes with very strong associations withthe disease systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have been identified bya team of scientists headed by researchers at the Department of MedicalSciences at Uppsala University. The findings are being published todayon the Web page of the highly prestigious American Journal of HumanGenetics. "These findings are probably the first genetic pieces of ahug...UAB scientists discover the origin of a mysterious physical force
Ever since the 1970s, scientists have been trying to establish the cause of a repulsive force occurring between different electrostatically charged molecules, such as DNA and other biomolecules, when they are very close to each other in aqueous media. This force became know as hydration force. Jordi Faraudo, a researcher for the Department of Physics at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelo...Researchers discover way to make cells in the eye sensitive to light
Researchers have discovered a way to makelight sensitive cells in the eye by switching on a single gene.According to research published online today in Nature, the team fromImperial College London and the University of Manchester, havediscovered that activating the melanopsin gene in the nerve cellscauses them to become light responsive, or photoreceptive. Usingmouse cells, the resea...Protein discovery could unlock the secret to better TB treatment
UCL scientists have found a protein that could unlock the secret to quicker, more effective treatment of TB by waking TB bacteria in the body. Once the TB bacteria are active again, the disease becomes treatable using common drugs like antibiotics. Scientists believe that uncovering the molecular structure of this protein will lead the way to designing drugs which enable treatment of dormant and...The at Biology Products

Is Diabetes the Leading Cause of Kidney Failure in India
No one knows the answer to this one as we do not have collective data, however diabetes is the number one cause of kidney failure in the United States, accounting for more than 40 percent of the new cases of end-stage renal disease (ESRD)each year. People with ESRD require regular dialysis or a kidney transplant to stay alive. Almost 25% of patients suffering from diabetes will get kidney...Another ray of hope for Arthritis Sufferers
Arthritis causes inflammation of a joint or joints and the surrounding tissues and affects millions of people all over the world.

A controversial treatment for prostate cancer in which radioactive seeds are implanted in the prostate to destroy the tumor received support Friday from doctors writing therapy guidelines for the prestigious 17-hospital National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) meeting in Ft.

A minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) procedure was performed at Pittsburgh while the patient was awake. The operation was done under thoracic epidural anesthesia. This approach may help in discharging the patient early from the hospital. Dr. Zenati from the team of doctors who performed the surgery said that patients who are operated in this way may not have to go t...New hope on the Horizon for People Wishing to Quit Smoking
Smoking is one of the most difficult addiction to give up. In an exciting research done at the University of Toronto in Canada it was found that medication called methoxsalen ( this is currently used to treat skin disorders) may help addicts who wish to give up smoking.

Bench-Top Centrifuges--Basic Tools for the Small Lab
No matter how elementary or advanced, every clinical laboratory possesses one essential devicea centrifuge.

For all this utility, t...Monitoring Options Expand for Therapeutic Agents and Drugs of Abuse
In keeping with the recent proliferation of rapid, easy-to-use diagnostic tests, many assays and collection products have entered the marketplace to help clinicians assess dosage appropriateness of therapeutic drugs and to screen for the presence of drugs of abuse. Some of these products require laboratory support while many simple test kits are suitable for point of care use by medical profe...Genetic Analysis Systems Enter the Clinical Mainstream
Like many other diagnostic regimes that were previously restricted to large specialty laboratories, genetic analysis is entering the clinical mainstream. Smaller, simpler analyzer systems are now suitable and affordable for hospital or large physicians group labs, while some genetic test kits are becoming available for primary point of care locations such as clinics and physician offices.<...Hemoglobin Testing at the Point of Care
Since the level of blood oxygenation can be an essential element of patient assessment, measurement of hemoglobin levels in the clinical setting is often desirable.
