A total of 905 women and 337 men experienced at least one osteoporosis-related fracture during that time; and 253 women and 71 men had a subsequent fracture. The Australian study did not examine the impact of osteoporosis treatment on fracture rates. Three years ago, Solomon and colleagues reported that as few as one in five people who had had osteoporosis-related hip or wrist fractures received treatment to help prevent future fractures.

"Ensuring that nursing home residents are receiving adequate daily supplemental vitamin D may reduce the number of falls in elderly nursing home residents and could potentially reduce the risk of fracture in this high-risk group," write the researchers. Those taking vitamin D were given one of four daily doses: 200 international units (IU), 400 IU, 600 IU, or 800 IU. People can fall for many reasons; and it's not certain vitamin D was the sole reason for the drop in falls for residents taking..

Researchers found adding resveratrol, an organic compound found in grapes and particularly in red wine, to the daily diet of short-lived fish prolonged their lifespan and delayed the onset of age-related memory and other problems. The results showed that adding the red wine ingredient to the daily diet of the fish prolonged their expected life span and slowed the progression of age-related memory and muscular problems. Researchers found fish fed the lower dose of resveratrol lived an average..

A current draft of the new bill instead creates an independent drug safety office with the power to force manufacturers to tighten drug warning labels and to order new drug safety trials for products already on the U.S. market. An independent drug safety office would more effectively regulate drugs once they're on the market," Grassley said in a speech before the Consumer Federation of America. "In fact, our [office of drug safety] is independent," she said in testimony before the Senate ...

People with epilepsy had more physical and mental health problems than people without the disorder. "It is clear that adults with epilepsy need better access to specialized medical care to control seizures and the effects of living with seizures." While most adults with active epilepsy reported having health insurance and having access to regular care, Thurman says the responses may not reflect the true picture of what is going on.

Treatment usually involves surgical removal of the prostate, external beam radiation therapy, or radiation seed implants. In external beam radiation therapy, a beam of high-dose radiation is aimed at the prostate to kill cancer cells. In radiation seed implant therapy, or brachytherapy, surgeons implant tiny radioactive seeds into the prostate gland.

The finding comes from a vast international research effort headed by a panel of experts in obesity, nutrition, cancer, public health, and epidemiology. "The single message is how much obesity affects cancer risk," James tells WebMD. The recommendations for diet, healthy weight, and physical activity are particularly important for cancer survivors.

Goff and colleagues developed a symptom index, based on their latest research, which they hope will prove to be a useful screening tool for ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer survivor Sherry Salway Black tells WebMD that greater awareness of symptoms is critical because patients who have early-stage disease are still routinely misdiagnosed. She says all women need to know the symptoms of ovarian cancer and their own specific risk factors.

A certain spot in the brain shows increased activity during out-of-body experiences, Belgian researchers report in The New England Journal of Medicine. That part of the brain is where the angular gyrus, a brain region involved in self-awareness, meets the supramarginal gyrus, a brain area that affects the body's spatial orientation. Besides still having tinnitus, the man had out-of-body experiences during the electrical stimulation.
