The scientists won the Nobel Prize for genetic discoveries that have made it possible to target and inactivate specific genes in mice used in scientific research. "Gene targeting has transformed physiology and medicine," states the Nobel Prize web site. Basically, the scientists found a way to tweak DNA in embryonic stem cells of miceĀ to knock out specific genes.

If you're overweight, modest weight loss might bring your blood pressure down to normal. People with stage 1 hypertension have blood pressure that ranges from 140-159 for systolic blood pressure (the first number in a blood pressure reading) and 90-99 for diastolic blood pressure (the second number in a blood pressure reading). A little more than half (52%) of those who met the weight loss goal also got their blood pressure down into the normal range, Fogari tells WebMD.

Optic neuritis results when the disease affects the eye nerves and causes inflammation. Patients who had an optic neuritis episode had a 38% risk of developing MS within 10 years, and 40% risk within 12 years. However, as Beck points out, some 40% of people who have optic neuritis will never develop multiple sclerosis.

Researcher Susan E. Schober, PhD, and colleagues at the CDC, found that measures of mercury exposure in women of childbearing age and young children generally fell below levels of concern. "Because of wide variations in the concentrations of mercury in fish and shellfish, it is possible to have the nutritional benefits of moderate fish consumption and avoid fish high in mercury." But the researchers say women who are pregnant or intend to become pregnant should follow federal and state ...

In humans, the disease is called new variant Creutzfeld-Jakob disease. Also, the FDA has prohibited the use of mammalian protein in the manufacture of animal feed given to animals thought to be susceptible to mad cow disease. The task of containing mad cow disease is complicated by the tremendous variety of products containing bovine material, including dietary supplements, skin implants, and vaccines.

Spanking, Banks says, is the form of punishment most likely to cross the fine line between child discipline and child abuse. "Spanking may have very different consequences for children depending on the family circumstances in which spanking is used," Slade says. "In African-American culture, traditionally when a child is spanked it is a consequence of action on the part of the child," Whaley tells WebMD.

Full-fat cheese + low-fat or fat-free cheese For best flavor, use regular grated cheddar or jack cheeses with equal parts low-fat or fat-free versions of the same cheeses. For every half-cup combo, you save 90 calories and 10 grams of fat and still get all the calcium. Per cup, the 50/50 juice-water mix saves 60 calories.

The CDC also reports that the top three causes of death -- heart disease, cancer, and stroke -- declined in 2005, compared with 2004, leading to greater life expectancy. For whites, the infant mortality rate was 5.76 infant deaths per 1,000 live births (up from 5.66 infant deaths per 1,000 live births in 2004). For African-Americans, the infant mortality rate was 13.69 infant deaths per 1,000 live births (down from 13.79 infant deaths per 1,000 live births in 2004).
