| Young vs. old: Who performs more consistently? Posted: 05 Aug 2013 07:34 PM PDT Older adults tend to exhibit less variability on cognitive tasks due to higher motivation, a balanced routine, and mood stability, according to new research.  |
| Could discovery lead to end of sunburn pain? Posted: 05 Aug 2013 12:24 PM PDT The painful, red skin that comes from too much time in the sun is caused by a molecule abundant in the skin's epidermis, a new study shows. Blocking this molecule, called TRPV4, greatly protects against the painful effects of sunburn. The research, which was conducted in mouse models and human skin samples, could yield a way to combat sunburn and possibly several other causes of pain.  |
| Great-grandmother's cigarette habit could be the cause of child's asthma Posted: 05 Aug 2013 10:10 AM PDT A study finds for the first time that the third generation's asthma may be linked to maternal smoking.  |
| Breastfeeding may reduce Alzheimer's risk Posted: 05 Aug 2013 08:34 AM PDT Mothers who breastfeed their children may have a lower risk of developing Alzheimer's Disease, with longer periods of breastfeeding also lowering the overall risk, a new study suggests.  |
| Working-life training and maternity leave are related to slower cognitive decline in later life Posted: 05 Aug 2013 08:29 AM PDT Employment gaps may promote but also reduce cognitive function in older age, as new research has shown. In particular, some of the findings suggest that leaves reported as unemployment and sickness are associated with higher risk of cognitive impairment indicating that these kinds of employment gaps may decrease cognitive reserve in the long run. Strongest evidence was found for training and maternity leave being related to slower cognitive decline, suggesting beneficial associations of these kinds of leaves on cognitive function.  |
| Obesity more likely in preschoolers drinking sugar-sweetened beverages Posted: 05 Aug 2013 08:28 AM PDT Young children who regularly drink sugary beverages are more likely to gain excessive weight and become obese, according to new research.  |
