Washington, Feb 27: Modern lifestyle habits help prevent tooth decay, according to a new study.
According to a review of the scientific evidence over the past 150 years, the effects of fluoride toothpaste, good oral hygiene and health education, might override the effects of food alone on tooth decay.
Professor Monty Duggal, an author of the review, said that it''s not enough to just look at what we eat when talking about tooth decay, as other factors seem to be as important.
Washington, Feb 27 : Statins, commonly used to lower cholesterol levels, can decrease the severity of strokes and significantly improve recovery, according to a new study.
In the study, Mayo Clinic researchers have shown that patients who were taking statins before a stroke experienced better outcomes and recovery than patients who weren''t on the drug - even when their cholesterol levels were ideal.
"We were trying to determine if the daily use of statins had more of an impact on stroke patients than simply lowering their "bad" (low-density lipid) cholesterol," said lead author Latha Stead, M. D.
50 tons of used & deadly medical waste seized in Asarva
More than 50 tonnes of biomedical waste comprising items like used syringes — which experts think may have injected the killer hepatitis-B virus into Modasa — have been recovered very close to your home.
The AMC recovered the cache of contaminated syringes, IV tubes, glucose bottles and other medical supplies from an Asarva business, Chamunda Factory. The corporation has sealed the factory as well as four others it raided, on Wednesday. AMC officials said that one of the factories not only dealt in biomedical waste, but also packaged water in used drinking-water pouches and bottles.
Washington, Feb 27: Immoral behaviour really does leave a "bad taste in the mouth", claims a new study, which found that disgust over an unfair social situation is hard-wired into the human body as strongly as the reaction to a foul taste.
The University of Toronto study shows a link between moral disgust and more primitive forms of disgust related to poison and disease.
"Morality is often pointed to as the pinnacle of human evolution and development," says lead author Hanah Chapman, a graduate student in the Department of Psychology.
Washington, February 27: Scientists at Georgetown University Medical Center claim to have achieved a significant breakthrough in showing what brain activity looks like when someone anticipates any action.
Writing about their work in the Journal of Neuroscience, the researchers say that this neural clairvoyance involves strong activity in brain areas that are responsible for preparing the body to move.
