Researchers find earliest evidence for animal life RIVERSIDE, Calif. - An international team of scientists from UC Riverside, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and other institutions has found the oldest evidence for animals in the fossil record. Biologynews.netStudy: Hormone Use Doubles Breast Cancer Risk A study published this week in the New England Journal of Medicine finds that women who take combined hormone therapy, estrogen and progestin, for at least five years double their risk of breast cancer. But, researchers say, women on hormones can significantly reduce their risk of breast cancer by stopping the therapy. NPRLargest Snake Rattles Paleontology [The following is an exact transcript of this podcast.]Indiana Jones (“I hate snakes--I hate ‘em!”) would have totally despised a snake that lived some 60 million years ago. Because researchers working in Colombia have found the fossil remains of a snake that would have been up to 45 feet long, weighing in at perhaps 2,500 pounds. That makes it the biggest snake ever to have slithered across the Earth. The announcement appears in the February 5th issue of the journal Nature. The creature has been dubbed Titanoboa. [More] Scientific AmericanNew Schizophrenia Gene Discovered By Johns Hopkins Researchers Researchers at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine are one gene closer to understanding schizophrenia and related disorders. Reporting in the Jan. 9 issue of the American Journal of Human Genetics, the team describes how a variation in the neuregulin 3 gene influences delusions associated with schizophrenia. 'Neuregulin 3 is clearly one more gene to add to the few currently known to contribute to schizophrenia,' says David Valle, M.D. Medicalnewstoday.comHand Strength And Self-Esteem Reward Older Gardeners Researchers at Kansas State University already have shown that gardening can offer enough moderate physical activity to keep older adults in shape. In research to be published in February in the journal HortScience, the researchers discovered that among the other health benefits of gardening is keeping older hands strong and nimble. Medicalnewstoday.comStrengthening The Reporting Of Genetic Association Studies Making sense of rapidly evolving evidence on genetic associations is crucial to making genuine advances in human genomics and the eventual integration of this information in the practice of medicine and public health. However, 'assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of this evidence, and hence the ability to synthesize it, has been limited by inadequate reporting of results,' says an international team of researchers in this week's PLoS Medicine. Medicalnewstoday.comFrom Seed To Nuts: Human Ancestor`s Face Evolved To Eat Survival Foods The facial structure of an ancient relative of modern humans may have evolved to allow them to eat large, hard nuts and seeds as part of a survival strategy, according to a new study by an international team of researchers that includes Florida State University's Dennis E. Slice. Medicalnewstoday.comVitamin D, a key milk nutrient, linked to better muscle power Young female athletes could have yet another reason to grab a glass of vitamin D-rich milk. Not only does vitamin D work with calcium to keep bones strong, researchers found that teenage girls with higher vitamin D levels may be able to jump higher and faster than their peers with lower levels, suggests a new study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism.
