Scientists map one of life's molecular mysteries: Visualisation of the molecular gateway across and into cellular membranes
26 Jan 2012 | 11:37 amAll living organisms are made up of cells, behind these intricate life forms lie complex cellular processes that allow our bodies to function. Researchers working on protein secretion -- a fundamental process in biology -- have revealed how protein channels in the membrane are activated by special signals contained in proteins destined for secretion. The results help explain the underlying mechanism responsible for the release of proteins such as hormones and antibodies into the blood stream. -

Most annoying urban myths debunked - part 7
8 Jan 2012 | 10:00 pmThere are countless urban myths floating around. Some are amusing, some are terrifying and some are just plain weird. But there are also plenty of urban myths that I just find utterly annoying.

It does deserve attention as we spend so much money on skin care and are all looking for the magic cure for young looking skin without the wrinkling and sagging and spend boo-coo bucks to have our skin tucked, pulled, stapled and whatever other crazy schemes they can come up with. Like most things, skin health care can be taken care of with a good nutrient-dense diet. What is the function… -

How to evaluate a patient with chronic cough?
26 Jan 2012 | 11:52 pmInitial evaluation of chronic cough (defined as more than 8 weeks' duration in adults and 4 weeks in children) should include a chest radiography (CXR) in most adult patients. Patients who are taking an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) should switch to a medication from another drug class. Differential diagnosis of cough, a simple mnemonic is GREAT BAD CAT TOM.

"Doctors make mistakes. Can we talk about that?" ED physician Brian Goldman's TED talk
26 Jan 2012 | 7:45 amDr. Goldman asks if you know your surgeon's "batting average" of operations with good outcomes. He mentions the three words you never want to hear: "Do you remember?" It's a good TED talk: Every doctor makes mistakes (just like everyone does). But, says Dr. Goldman, medicine's culture of denial (and shame) keeps doctors from ever talking about those mistakes, or using them to learn and improve. Telling stories from his own long practice, he calls on doctors to start talking about being wrong. Here are some simple steps to avoid medical errors from a patient's perspective (source: CNN): 1. -

Blogging is good for you - and for most people who read blogs
21 Jan 2012 | 11:36 amFrom The Economist: "Academic papers cited by bloggers are far more likely to be downloaded. Blogging economists are regarded more highly than non-bloggers with the same publishing record. The back-and-forth between bloggers resembles the informal chats, in university hallways and coffee rooms, that have always stimulated economic research, argues Paul Krugman, a Nobel-prize winning economist who blogs at the New York Times. But moving the conversation online means that far more people can take part. Despite the low barriers to entry, blogs do impose some intellectual standards. Errors of…

Automated regional analysis of B-mode ultrasound images of skeletal muscle movement
17 Jan 2012 | 9:00 amTo understand the functional significance of skeletal muscle anatomy, a method of quantifying local shape changes in different tissue structures during dynamic tasks is required. Taking advantage of the good spatial and temporal resolution of B-mode ultrasound imaging, we describe a method of automatically segmenting images into fascicle and aponeurosis regions and tracking movement of features, independently, in localized portions of each tissue. Ultrasound images (25 Hz) of the medial gastrocnemius muscle were collected from eight participants during ankle joint rotation (2° and… -
Effect of chronic intermittent hypoxia on noradrenergic activation of hypoglossal motoneurons
17 Jan 2012 | 9:00 amIn obstructive sleep apnea patients, elevated activity of the lingual muscles during wakefulness protects the upper airway against occlusions. A possibly related form of respiratory neuroplasticity is present in rats exposed to acute and chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH). Since rats exposed to CIH have increased density of noradrenergic terminals and increased α1-adrenoceptor immunoreactivity in the hypoglossal (XII) nucleus, we investigated whether these anatomic indexes of increased noradrenergic innervation translate to increased sensitivity of XII motoneurons to noradrenergic…
