Red Wine Versus White Wine – Comparison Of Effects On Hormones Related To Breast Cancer Risk

January 22, 2012
Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) prevent the conversion of androgens to estrogens, and could play a role in the development of breast cancer. This study of 36 pre-menopausal women consisted of a cross-over intervention trial to determine if there were differences between red wine and white wine in their effects on AIs. ...

Potential New Approach For Treating Graft-Versus-Host-Disease Provided By Natural Enzyme

January 19, 2012
A natural enzyme derived from human blood plasma showed potential in significantly reducing the effects of graft-vs.-host disease, a common and deadly side effect of lifesaving bone marrow transplants. Researchers from the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center looked at the drug alpha-1-antitrypsin, which is approved by the U.S. Food ...

Breast fed babies versus formula fed babies: Who is crankier?

January 12, 2012
A new study finds that breastfed babies cry more, laugh less, and generally have “more challenging temperaments” than formula-fed infants. However such behavior is normal, and mothers should learn to cope with it rather than reach for the bottle, according to researchers.

Forest health versus global warming: Fuel reduction likely to increase carbon emissions

December 20, 2011
CORVALLIS, Ore. Forest thinning to help prevent or reduce severe wildfire will release more carbon to the atmosphere than any amount saved by successful fire prevention, a new study concludes. There may be valid reasons to thin forests such as restoration of forest structure or ...

HIV drug reduces graft-versus-host disease in stem cell transplant patients, Penn study shows

New Approach To Graft-Versus-Host Disease Treatment Results In Sustained Improvement For Some Patients

December 2, 2011
In a study that seems to pivot on a paradox, scientists at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute have used an immune system stimulant as an immune system suppressor to treat a common, often debilitating side effect of donor stem cell transplantation in cancer patients. The effect, in some cases, was profound. The ...

Immune system stimulant used as suppressor to treat chronic graft-versus-host disease
