<title>Nationwide Study Shows Sharp Decline In Suicide Rate Among HIV Patients, But Not For All</title>
<link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/mnt/healthnews/~3/Hs0dhw-xEoM/174120.php</link>
<description><![CDATA[A nationwide study found that suicide rates for HIV patients in  Switzerland decreased by more than half, after 1996 when the highly active antiretroviral therapy  (HAART) was introduced. Despite the dramatic decrease, the suicide rate among HIV-infected  individuals still significantly exceeded that of the general population. The study also showed that the  majority of HIV patients who died by suicide (62%) had a mental illness diagnosis.  The findings from this nationwide Swiss study by Olivia Keiser, Ph.D...

<description><![CDATA[Andy Burnham yesterday outlined how a Â£670million-a-year package would help 400,000 people - including people with dementia - to stay in their own homes instead of moving into residential care.  In the second reading debate of the Personal Care at Home bill he described it as a 'significant moment' marking the beginning of a fundamental overhaul of care services in England.  'The promise of free personal care at home for those with the highest needs is a welcome development...

<description><![CDATA[UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have provided the most extensive account to date of the unique observable characteristics seen in patients with an extremely rare premature aging syndrome.  The findings, reported online and in the December issue of the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, suggest that patients with atypical progeroid syndrome (APS) should not be lumped together with those diagnosed with two similar but more well-defined accelerated aging disorders called progeria and mandibuloacral dysplasia (MAD)...

Any sound over 85 decibels (dBs) exceeds what hearing experts consider to be a safe level and some MP3 players are programmed to reach levels as high as 120 dBs at their maximum.

<title>What Is A Biopsy? What Are Biopsies Used For?</title>
<link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/mnt/healthnews/~3/B_UufGoFE9A/174043.php</link>
<description><![CDATA[A biopsy is a medical procedure that involves taking a small sample of tissue so that it can be examined under a microscope for purposes of diagnosis. The term 'biopsy' is often used to refer to the act of taking the sample and the tissue sample itself. A biopsy may be done, for example, because of concern about cancer. In the case of certain signs and symptoms or if the doctor has identified an area of concern, a biopsy is required to determine whether there is cancer or some other condition...

<description><![CDATA[New research showing that thrill-seeking teenagers are especially susceptible to fruit-flavored cigarettes is in line with the recent ban on the sale of flavored cigarettes by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in September 2009. According to the FDA, the ban, authorized by the new Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, is part of a national effort by the FDA to reduce smoking, which is the leading preventable cause of death in America...

<description><![CDATA[The electrophysiology team at the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI) recently performed the first implantation of a new type of cardiac pacemaker (Accent RF™) in Canada. This landmark procedure was carried out on October 22, 2009 by Drs. Bernard Thibault and Peter Guerra. Both are cardiologists, electrophysiologists at the MHI and professors at the UniversitÃ© de MontrÃ©al. The Accent RF™ pacemaker uses wireless technology and is intended for people with bradycardia, an abnormally slow heart rate...

<title>Combining Celebrex With Low-Dose Aspirin May Reduce Protection From Heart Attack And Stroke, Study Suggests</title>
<link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/mnt/healthnews/~3/rlyar5spnTM/174048.php</link>
<description><![CDATA[Millions of Americans take Celebrex for arthritis or other pain. Many, if they are middle-aged or older, also take a low-dose aspirin tablet daily to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. Yet they may be getting little protection, because Celebrex keeps the aspirin from doing its job effectively, a new study suggests. In laboratory studies, University of Michigan researchers found that several coxibs, the drug class to which Celebrex belongs, interfere with aspirin's ability to discourage blood clots, if the aspirin is taken in low doses...

University of Alberta education professor Stephen Norris and mathematics professor Gerda de Vries used the virus as a theoretical tool when they designed materials for use in an advanced high-school math course. The materials allow students to use mathematical concepts learned in their curriculum to determine the disease's reproductive number, which determines the likelihood of a disease spreading...

<description><![CDATA[A new paper from MIT biology professor Leonard Guarente strengthens the link between longevity proteins called sirtuins and the lifespan-extending effects of calorie restriction. For decades, it has been known that cutting normal calorie consumption by 30 to 40 percent can boost lifespan and improve overall health in animals such as worms and mice. Guarente believes that those effects are controlled by sirtuins - proteins that keep cells alive and healthy in the face of stress by coordinating a variety of hormonal networks, regulatory proteins and other genes...

<description><![CDATA[A team of researchers, at Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, has identified a group of 12 genetic variants in the HSPB7 gene that is associated with heart failure in humans. The team, led by Gerald Dorn, used an approach they have recently developed that allows ultra-high-throughput targeted DNA sequencing to identify genetic variation in four genes with biological relevance to heart failure. They identified in a large group of Caucasian individuals with heart failure, 129 separate genetic variants in the four genes, including 23 that seemed to be novel...

<description><![CDATA[Tumor suppressor genes make proteins that help control cell growth. Mutations in these genes that generate nonfunctional proteins can contribute to tumor development and progression. One of the most well-known tumor suppressor genes is BRACA1, mutations in which are linked to breast cancer. Ze-Guang Han and colleagues, at the Chinese National Human Genome Center at Shanghai, People's Republic of China, have now identified SCARA5 as a candidate tumor suppressor gene in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a form of liver cancer that is the fifth most common cancer worldwide...

<description><![CDATA[VASCULAR BIOLOGY: Signaling decreased blood pressure Blood pressure is controlled in part by changes in the radius of blood vessels; when the smooth muscle cells in the wall of a blood vessel contract, the radius of the blood vessel decreases and blood pressure increases. A team of researchers at CSIC-University of Salamanca, Spain, has now identified in mice a new signaling pathway that contributes to relaxation of smooth muscle cells in blood vessel walls triggered by the molecule NO and thereby decreases blood pressure. Mice lacking the protein Vav2 have elevated blood pressure...

In most cases, breast lesions are not cancers and do not require further treatment. Biopsies may be performed using minimally invasive core needle biopsy or open surgical biopsy. Researchers reviewed more than 70 published articles to assess the risks and benefits of these two different methods...
