Evidence
Homeopathy :: Homoeopathy in Childhood Diarrhea
Boiron Research Foundation funded a project to confirm the action of homeopathy medicines in childhood diarrhea.
Vitiligo :: Skin Leucoderma – Sulphur
Efficacy Of Homoeopathic Drugs In Cases Of Leucoderma: A Clinical Study
Allergies :: Vaccines not source of allergies
Contrary to general belief that vaccines cause asthma, allergies or other chronic diseases, a new study identifies flaws in such proposed explanations. Paul A. Offit of Philadelphia rejects biological explanations for how vaccines cause chronic diseases and reviews current research on associations between vaccines and those diseases.
SARS :: Homeopathy and SARS
SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome), an atypical pneumonia of unknown aetiology, was recognized at the end of February 2003.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is co-ordinating the international investigation with the assistance of the Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network and is working closely with health authorities in the affected countries to provide epidemiological, clinical and logistical support as required.
Epilepsy :: Repeated epilepsy seizures harmful
For years, doctors have reassured epilepsy patients that seizures are relatively benign. While a fall during a seizure may cause injury, the surge of electricity in the brain does no actual damage, patients were told.
Ibuprofen bad for heart
Fresh evidence adds to suspicions that ibuprofen could be dangerous for most heart patients because it can block the blood-thinning benefits of aspirin.
Stress :: How mental stress leads to physical ailments
Prolonged stress weakens the immune system, strains the heart, damages memory cells and deposit fats at the waist, says Dr. Bruce McEwen of the neuroendocrinology laboratory, Rockefeller University, and author of a new book, The End of Stress as We Know It.
Alzheimer’s disease :: Cholesterol linked to Alzheimer’s disease
A variation in a gene that is supposed to help the brain break down cholesterol may play a role in some cases of Alzheimer’s disease, researchers say.
Sleep :: How sleep affects performance
Besides the connection between inadequate sleep and a number of major health problems, there is substantial scientific evidence that sleep deprivation affects cognition and motor performance. A recent study showed that people who were awake for up to 19 hours scored substantially worse on performance tests and alertness scales than those with a blood-alcohol level of .08 – the definition of being legally drunk.
