Patients With Anxiety Disorders Think They Have More Physiological Problems Than They Really Have, According To Study

A doctoral thesis carried out at the University of Granada has shown that patients with serious anxiety disorders (panic disorder with and without agoraphobia, social anxiety disorder or generalized anxiety disorder) think they suffer more physiological (palpitations, sweating, irregular breathing, shaking of the hands and muscular tension, etc.) than they really have.

Scientists pinpoint gene behind language disorder

A common language disorder that affects one in 14 children has been linked to a gene for the first time, offering insights that ultimately promise better diagnosis and treatment.

Genes behind bipolar disorder mapped by scientists

The findings of the study hold out the hope that, having assessed individual gene combinations, individuals likely to suffer from bipolar disorder can be identified even before the illness manifests itself.

Gene behind common language disorder 'discovered'

London (PTI): Scientists have pinpointed a gene, which they claim is behind a common language disorder in kids, a finding that could lead to better diagnosis and treatment.

Scientists map genes behind bipolar disorder

Indiana University neuroscientists combined data from the latest gene hunting studies for bipolar disorder with information from their own studies to zero in on the best candidate genes for the illness.

Scientists map genes behind bipolar disorder

New York, Nov 22 : In a first, scientists have comprehensively mapped the genes believed to cause bipolar disorder.

Deranged calcium signaling contributes to neurological disorder

Defective calcium metabolism in nerve cells may play a major role in a fatal genetic neurological disorder that resembles Huntington’s disease, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have found in a mouse study.

Fruit fly discovery generates buzz about brain-damaging disorder in children

Johns Hopkins researchers have used fruit flies to gain new insights into a brain-damaging disorder afflicting children. Their work suggests a possible therapy for the disease, for which there is currently no treatment.

Scientists identify the best candidate genes for bipolar disorder

Washington, November 22 (ANI): Indiana University researchers have for the first time developed a comprehensive map of genes that are likely to be involved in bipolar disorder.

Eight-year Clinical Outcomes Of Enzyme Replacement Therapy In 884 Children With Type I Gaucher Disease

Gaucher disease is a rare genetic disorder that occurs when a person lacks an enzyme called glucocerebrosidase. The most common form of this disorder is type 1 Gaucher disease. Type 1 Gaucher disease can start at any age, but recently it has been shown that about half of all patients are diagnosed before 18 years of age.

Induction Of Pgc-1 Alpha Expression In Huntington's Disease Transgenic Mice Rescues Neuronal Dysfunction And Neurodegeneration

Neurodegenerative diseases pose a considerable burden to our aging population. Huntington's disease (HD) is an inherited neurological disorder that affects as many as 40,000 people in the U.S. alone. HD causes degeneration of the brain, which results in involuntary movement disorder, cognitive decline, and ultimately death.

Genetic disorder sheds light on enzyme`s role in bone metabolism

Washington, Nov 06: Pycnodysostosis is a genetic disease characterised by short stature, which opens a window into how joints are destroyed by arthritis.

Genetic disorder sheds light on enzyme's role in bone metabolism

Pycnodysostosis, a condition from which the painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec suffered, is a genetic disease characterized by short stature. This rare disease, surprisingly, provides a window into how joints are destroyed by arthritis. It is caused by deficiency of an enzyme known as cathepsin K which hampers osteoclasts (the cells that break down bone in bone modeling and repair), leading to poor bone resorption and dense, brittle bones.

Sarah denies eating disorder rumours

Girls Aloud's Sarah Harding has denied she is underweight and claims that she loves nothing more than a McDonald's breakfast.
