| Low-dose aspirin won't prevent pregnancy loss, study shows Posted: 04 Apr 2014 12:16 PM PDT Low-dose aspirin, in general, is not beneficial for future pregnancy outcomes in women with prior pregnancy loss, a medical trial has found. However, in women with one pregnancy loss within the previous 12 months, there did appear to be a benefit. Many health care providers prescribe low-dose aspirin therapy for women who have had a pregnancy loss, and who would like to get pregnant again, the researchers noted.  |
| Young motorists lack self control Posted: 04 Apr 2014 05:55 AM PDT So now we have it in black and white -- the emotional center in young men's brains overrides the area controlling their ability to make rational decisions. This leads to accidents among risk-seeking motorists. Last autumn thirty-four young people allowed their brains to be scanned while playing car race video games. The aim was to win.

| Still no clear evidence for health benefits of vitamin D? Experts try to make sense of the data Posted: 01 Apr 2014 06:04 PM PDT Despite a huge number of studies into the role of vitamin D on health, there is still no clear evidence that it has a beneficial effect on many conditions, conclude researchers. A growing body of evidence indicates that vitamin D may reduce risks of a wide range of diseases, including bone mineral disease, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune disorders, cancer and cardiovascular problems. Yet, despite hundreds of trials, the evidence for vitamin D is still being debated.  |
