| Posted: 01 Jan 2013 03:20 PM PST In a study that included nearly 30,000 women from Nordic countries who had filled a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor prescription during pregnancy, researchers found no significant association between use of these medications during pregnancy and risk of stillbirth, neonatal death, or postneonatal death, after accounting for factors including maternal psychiatric disease. |
| Fructose has different effect than glucose on brain regions that regulate appetite Posted: 01 Jan 2013 03:20 PM PST In a study examining possible factors regarding the associations between fructose consumption and weight gain, brain magnetic resonance imaging of study participants indicated that ingestion of glucose but not fructose reduced cerebral blood flow and activity in brain regions that regulate appetite, and ingestion of glucose but not fructose produced increased ratings of satiety and fullness. |
