New study indicates Invirase results in similar levels of viral suppression to lopinavir

Promising head to head results presented today indicate that the boosted protease inhibitor (PI/r) Invirase 500/r appears to achieve similar levels of viral suppression compared to the most commonly used PI, lopinavir/r, while significantly fewer patients developed elevated lipids. These results are from a planned 24 week interim analysis of 150 patients from the Gemini study presented at the HIV-8 congress in Glasgow.1

1. Low level of neuronal receptor linked to mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease
   09-04-2007 · EurekAlert!
   Results of a new study indicate a strong link between the loss of the neuronal receptor LR11and onset of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), often a harbinger of Alzheimer's disease. The findings also show that levels of LR11 in the brain tissue reflect the severity of cognitive impairment and may predict which individuals will progress to Alzheimer's disease.

2. High Dopamine Transporter Levels Not Correlated with ADHD
   11-29-2006 · Brookhaven National Laboratory
   Results from a brain-imaging study conducted at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory in collaboration with Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York indicate that levels of a brain protein proposed as a diagnostic marker for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are not positively correlated with the disease. In fact, the study found lower levels of these "dopamine transporter" proteins in certain brain regions of ADHD patients compared with controls.

   11-18-2007 · EurekAlert!
   The flood believed to be behind the Noah's Ark myth kick-started European agriculture. This research paper assesses the impact of the collapse of the North American (Laurentide) Ice Sheet, 8,000 years ago. The results indicate a catastrophic rise in global sea level led to the flooding of the Black Sea and drove dramatic social change across Europe. The research team argues that, in the face of rising sea levels driven by contemporary climate change, we can learn important lessons from the past

   08-07-2007 · EurekAlert!
   Microbes that result in beach closures and health advisories when detected at unsafe levels in the ocean also have been detected in the sand, according to a study by Stanford University scientists.The study found that sand at beaches all along the California coast contained some level of fecal indicator bacteria. At one popular beach in Monterey, Calif., they found evidence of human waste -- raising doubt about the commonly held belief that some fecal indictor bacteria occur naturally in the sand and are therefore benign.

   Results of a new study suggest that people with mild to moderate MS are capable of improving their aerobic fitness levels similar to their non-MS counterparts. While physical inactivity may predispose MS patients to have increased coronary artery disease risk, MS-related symptoms don't preclude this group from potentially reducing their risk factors through exercise.
