The results of a large, multicenter trial raise the possibility that the danger of some diabetes complications may not be as great as earlier data has indicated and that doctors may be screening diabetes patients to no benefit. Reporting from a group of institutions in the U.S. and Canada, researchers involved in the Detection of Ischemia in Asymptomatic Diabetics (DIAD) study found that screening diabetes patients for heart risk fails to predict which patients are most likely to have a heart attack. DIAD also found that the risk...

...people who have been fighting off Chinese advances for more than a thousand years, most recently in 1979. Many in Vietnam worry that China is being handed the keys not just to their country's natural resources but also to sensitive strategic areas, threatening the nation's security. "The danger is that China has won most of the bids building electricity, cement and chemical plants," warns Nguyen Van Thu, the chairman of Vietnam's Association of Mechanical Industries. "They eat up everything and leave nothing." (See pictures of the border war between China and Vietnam...
