| Yoga in menopause may help insomnia -- but not hot flashes Posted: 27 Sep 2013 03:32 PM PDT Taking a 12-week yoga class and practicing at home was linked to less insomnia -- but not to fewer or less bothersome hot flashes or night sweats. The link between yoga and better sleep was the only statistically significant finding in this randomized controlled trial. |
| Telecommuting Can Be Beneficial for a Work/Life Balance Posted: 27 Sep 2013 03:29 PM PDT If telecommuting – or working from home – is an available option, one expert says its perks go beyond working in pajamas. |
| Abuse, lack of parental warmth in childhood linked to multiple health risks in adulthood Posted: 26 Sep 2013 05:50 PM PDT A new study for the first time examines the effects of abuse and lack of parental affection across the body's entire regulatory system, and finds a strong biological link for how negative early life experiences affect physical health. |
| Changing laws, attitudes of police response to drug overdose may lead to better outcomes Posted: 26 Sep 2013 11:32 AM PDT A recent study has found that a change in the way police respond to drug-related overdose emergencies could contribute to improved outcomes of the victims and to the communities where overdoses occur. The study found that while law enforcement officers often serve as medical first responders, there is a lack of clarity as to what police can do, or should do, at the scene of an overdose. |

With this in mind, an interdisciplinary group of researchers is interested in whether a computational analysis of this language can provide as much, or more, insight into their personalities as traditional methods used by psychologists, such as self-reported surveys and questionnaires. |
| Folic acid deficiency can affect the health of great, great grandchildren Posted: 26 Sep 2013 09:34 AM PDT A study reveals that a mutation in a gene necessary for the metabolism of folic acid not only impacts the immediate offspring but can also have detrimental health effects on the next several generations. |
| Diet and exercise produces greater improvement in knee pain, function Posted: 24 Sep 2013 02:41 PM PDT Among overweight and obese adults with knee osteoarthritis, combining intensive diet and exercise led to less knee pain and better function after 18 months than diet-alone and exercise-alone. |
