ATT Worldnet - Health Oct. 29, 2007 (Los Angeles) -- The widely prescribed cholesterol-lowering drugs known as statins appear to slash the risk of relapse among men undergoing radiation treatment for prostate cancer, researchers report. Overall, 76% of men who took statins were alive and without cancer 10 years after treatment vs. 66% of those who didnā~™t, says researcher Michael J. Zelefsky, MD, a radiation oncologist at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. While other studies have suggested that ..

0%	282.	ATT Worldnet - Health While language delays are the most common reason for evaluating children for autism, more subtle warning signs have been identified for babies who are not yet at the talking stage. "None of these subtle indicators should be taken in isolation as a definite sign of autism," the University of Texas Health Science Center pediatrics professor tells WebMD. Neurodevelopmental pediatrician Scott Myers, MD, tells WebMD that roughly a quarter of children with autism experience verbal regression.

Moran and colleagues studied 2,382 women with early-stage breast cancer who underwent breast-conserving surgery; 207 of them were African-American. Thirty-two percent of African-American women had tumors that were greater than 2 centimeters in diameter vs. 18% of white women.

0%	284.	ATT Worldnet - Health She adds that many teens "don't seem to recognize the dangers of driving after using illicit drugs, including marijuana." About 18% said they had driven after drinking heavily, using marijuana, or using illicit drugs other than marijuana. African-Americans were less likely than whites to report driving after heavy drinking, and Hispanics were less likely than whites to report driving after using drugs.

0%	285.	ATT Worldnet - Health The brain scans backed that up, showing increased activity in hunger-related brain areas when the high-calorie foods were displayed. With leptin treatment, the patients lost weight and were less hungry when they saw images of high-calorie foods during follow-up brain scans. The findings may provide clues about hunger, the brain, and leptin -- and those clues could yield new obesity treatments, note the researchers.

0%	286.	ATT Worldnet - Health Oct. 29, 2007 -- HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, may have arrived in the U.S. a dozen years before AIDS was recognized in 1981. They analyzed HIV DNA saved in 1982-1983 from five AIDS patients who had recently emigrated from Haiti to Miami. Using a computer program, Worobey's team traced the lineage of the patients' HIV DNA, based on the assumption that HIVĀ spread to the U.S. via Haiti.

0%	287.	ATT Worldnet - Health Participants with the highest intake of omega-3 fatty acids had the most gray matter in those brain areas, the study shows. Perhaps participants with the most gray matter in those brain areas happen to favor foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids. But if omega-3 fatty acids boost gray matter, that could explain earlier findings linking omega-3 fatty acids to mood regulation, Conklin notes.

0%	288.	ATT Worldnet - Health March 5, 2007 -- Australian researchers report three rare cases of people with epilepsy in whom toothbrushing triggered seizures. The three patients all had reflex epilepsy, in which seizures can be provoked by specific stimuli instead of happening spontaneously. The rhythmic action of toothbrushing might stimulate the brain area that triggered the seizures, note D'Souza and colleagues.

Meanwhile, the FDA says parents should strictly follow dosing instructions on children's cough and cold medications and not give children adult formulations. The Consumer Healthcare Products Association (CHPA) issued a statement about the safety and effectiveness of over-the-counter (OTC) cough and cold medicines.

0%	290.	ATT Worldnet - Health In reaching its conclusion, the American Academy of Neurology's Therapeutics and Technology Assessment Subcommittee reviewed four studies on epidural steroid injections for back pain with sciatica. Armon's team didn't have enough data to evaluate the use of epidural steroid shots for neck pain. With few high-quality studies to review, the researchers call for further studies on epidural steroid injections for neck and back pain.
