Blood gene expression profile identifies patients with elevated risk of cardiovascular death

A study of 338 patients with coronary artery disease has identified a gene expression profile associated with an elevated risk of cardiovascular death. Used with other indicators such as biochemical markers and family history, the profile - based on a simple blood test - may help identify patients who could benefit from personalized treatment and counseling designed to address risk factors.

Partnering can boost likelihood of sticking to resolutions

Many people look forward to the New Year for a new start on old habits. While you are more likely to do something if you plan it in advance, research funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), shows that partnering up or planning with someone can really boost the likelihood of sticking to your resolutions.

Cleansing the body of the cells, they hope, could postpone many of the diseases of aging. This could pave the way for drugs that would keep human tissues healthier longer, but it is unclear until further testing is done whether such drugs could eventually help people live longer.

People who exhibit even a few depressive symptoms before a major life stressor, such as a disaster, may experience an increase in inflammation - a major risk factor for heart disease and other negative health conditions - after the event, according to new research from Rice University.

Researchers at University of California, San Diego School of Medicine have discovered that a protein known as p62 acts as a molecular brake to keep inflammation in check and avoid collateral damage.
