- Strobe glasses improve hockey players' performance
- Nutrition report cards receive high marks in pilot program
- Cancer diagnosis more likely to limit careers for patients from rural areas
| Strobe glasses improve hockey players' performance Posted: 13 Dec 2013 05:11 PM PST Professional hockey players who trained with special eyewear that only allowed them to see action intermittently showed significant improvement in practice drills, according to a study with the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes. The eyewear features lenses that switch between transparent and opaque, producing stroboscopic visual conditions, much like a strobe light in your favorite dance club.  |
| Nutrition report cards receive high marks in pilot program Posted: 13 Dec 2013 05:10 PM PST Parents receiving academic report cards throughout the school year is commonplace, but a new study shows that for healthier nutrition, parents should opt to receive a nutrition report card, too.  |
| Cancer diagnosis more likely to limit careers for patients from rural areas Posted: 12 Dec 2013 06:58 AM PST Compared to their counterparts in cities, cancer patients living in rural areas tend to retire early after being diagnosed, and are less likely to go on paid disability leave while receiving treatment. These are some of the insights drawn from research in the US to determine if living in a rural or urban area influences the impact of cancer diagnosis on employment.  |

| Effects of migrations, 'closed holdings' on DNA of Alpine peoples Posted: 12 Dec 2013 06:58 AM PST A genetic study sheds light on the history of the populations, indicating that the genetic make-up of human beings is a result of their biological evolution, which is also influenced by geographical and socio-cultural factors such as environmental features and marriage customs. This is the outcome of a study that reconstructed the genetic structure of the populations of the eastern Italian Alps on the basis of bio-molecular analyses.  |

| New link found between obesity, early decline in kidney function Posted: 13 Dec 2013 01:11 PM PST A new study of nearly 3,000 individuals links obesity to the development of kidney disease.  |
| Posted: 13 Dec 2013 06:47 AM PST For women with metastatic breast cancer who had elevated amounts of circulating tumor cells in their blood after a first line of chemotherapy, switching immediately to a different chemotherapy did not improve overall survival or time to progression, according to the results of a phase III clinical trial.  |
| Antihormone therapy anastrozole may provide new option for breast cancer prevention Posted: 12 Dec 2013 06:59 AM PST Breast cancer incidence among postmenopausal women at high risk for developing the disease was significantly reduced by the antihormone therapy anastrozole, indicating that the drug may be an effective new option for breast cancer prevention for this group of women, according to initial results of a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial.  |
| Patients with metastatic breast cancer may not benefit from surgery and radiation after chemotherapy Posted: 11 Dec 2013 11:21 AM PST After a response to initial chemotherapy, treatment with radiotherapy and surgical removal of the breast tumor and nearby lymph nodes do not provide any additional benefit to patients with metastatic breast cancer, according to results of a clinical trial.  |
| Benefit of breast cancer screening more consistent across studies than thought Posted: 11 Dec 2013 11:21 AM PST Re-examination of data from four large studies of the benefits and harms of mammography screening shows that the benefits are more consistent across these studies than previously understood, and that all the studies indicate a substantial reduction in breast cancer mortality with screening.  |
| Avoiding radiotherapy is an option for some older patients with breast cancer Posted: 11 Dec 2013 11:21 AM PST Omission of radiotherapy is a reasonable option for women age 65 or older who receive hormone therapy after breast-conserving surgery for hormone receptor-positive, axillary node-negative breast cancer, according to results of the PRIME 2 trial.  |
