Obesity surgery death rates are low, study finds Obese, but worried that surgery for it might kill you? The risk of that has dropped dramatically, and now is no greater than for having a gall bladder out, a hip replaced or most other major operations, new research shows. Seattle Post IntelligencerShrimpy Sea Life May Mix Oceans as Much as Tides and Winds Do Here's a puzzle: A child pees in the shallow end of a pool and then swims to the deep end. Which end should you avoid? Conventional wisdom holds that the deep end would be safe (until the pool's normal circulation mixed the contaminated water throughout). But according to new research--and old observations by Charles Darwin, the grandson of the more famous Charles Darwin--it would be wise to avoid most of the child's path through the water.

This discovery opens a new avenue for reprogramming cells that could eventually lead to treatments for a range of human diseases and traumatic injuries by coaxing a patient's own cells to repair and regenerate the damaged tissues.

The research also challenges the widespread belief that most of garlic's benefits are due to its rich array of antioxidants. Science dailyChildhood Adversities Have Predictive Role In Peptic Ulcer Childhood adversities have a predictive role in peptic ulcer, according to new research. The most common adversities were long-lasting financial difficulties in the family, serious conflicts in the family, and a family member seriously or chronically ill. Age- and sex-adjusted odds ratios of childhood adversities varied between 1.45 and 2.01. Adjusting for smoking, heavy drinking, stress and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use had no further influence.

ReutersBigger Bodies Better In Pool [The following is an exact transcript of this podcast.]When Michael Phelps is out of the water, he towers over mere non-Olympic mortals. Then he slips into the pool, and makes record-breaking speed seem effortless. His height, it turns out, is no accident. According to research published in The Journal of Experimental Biology, winning athletes are getting taller, more slender, and yet heavier in comparison to the normal population. [More] Scientific American30-Million-Year-Old Dung Balls Shed Light on Ancient Fauna The Tertiary Period--that vast stretch of geologic time starting with the extinction of the dinosaurs and ending with the rise of the big-brained primates--was a paradise for dung beetles. Sure, the huge sauropods, and their equally huge droppings, had vanished, but beetles could savor the copious dung of a wide range of oversized mammals, ranging from rhinoceroses to armadillos to giant-antlered deer. Why do I wax profound about the humble dung beetle? Well, as it turns out, ancient dung balls can wind up being preserved every bit as well as uncollected poop (in the latter case, the resulting fossils are known as coprolites). A new study by a research team in South America reveals that some of these fossilized dung balls were invaded by earthworms, non-dung beetles, and other invertebrates--and that the telltale track marks left by this 'cleptoparasitism' and 'detritivory' can be decoded, CSI-style, to shed light on the everyday life of creatures large and small. And that's the insid About1 2 3 4 |
