Insidermedicine in 60 - April 29, 2008 From London - Protein variants from 2 genetic loci are linked to the presence of osteoporosis and (More) From London - Protein variants from 2 genetic loci are linked to the presence of osteoporosis and the risk of bone fracture, according to research in the Lancet. Researchers performed a genome-wide scan on over 2000 female twins and were able to identify 2 SNPs which raise the risk of osteoporosis and fracture by up to 30%. These findings could lead to a diagnostic test that could influence primary prevention.
From Cleveland - Much in the way that a pacemaker can kick in to restart a heart that has stopped beating, a brain pacemaker is showing promise for those with severe depression. In a study of people who were severely depressed, but not suicidal, those who received deep brain stimulation had a 50% improvement in their depression. The stimulation was delivered through an implantable pulse generator developed for Parkinson's disease.
And finally, from Atlanta - According to the CDC, over a quarter of American toddlers are not being properly vaccinated. Researchers looked at the vaccination histories for more than 17,000 children aged 19 to 35 months, and while 70% were vaccinated properly, 20% missed a dose, and 8% had a dose delivered at the wrong time. Immunization delays may put children at increased risk for preventable diseases such as measles and mumps.

Insidermedicine in 60 - May 21, 2008 From Hong Kong - According to research published in Journal of the American College of Cardiology, (More) From Hong Kong - According to research published in Journal of the American College of Cardiology, men with erectile dysfunction are at significantly higher risk for developing heart disease. Researchers followed over 2,300 patients with type 2 diabetes and noted that those with ED were twice as likely to develop coronary artery disease. Given that ED may predict future heart disease, its documentation should be included in the assessment of cardiovascular risk.
From Rome - According to research published in the Lancet Oncology, testing thyroid nodules for the presence of galectin-3, a protein that is involved in inhibiting cell replication, may reduce the number of unnecessary surgeries for potential thyroid cancer. In a study of over 400 thyroid nodules that were potentially cancerous, researchers noted that if the lesion expressed the protein the likelihood of cancer was over 80%, and in its absence, it was less than 10%.
And finally from Toronto - Drinking caffeinated coffee an hour before eating breakfast cereal can affect the body's blood-sugar response. In a study of 10 healthy men, those that drank caffeinated coffee before or while eating low-sugar cereal saw their blood glucose levels spike by 250% compared with decaf coffee. The researchers concluded that some people may be better off eating sweeter cereal, and drinking decaf.
