Drawing on a decade's worth of research on near-death experiences - work that includes cataloguing the stories of some...
Terwindt's study was based on phone interviews with 977 men and women from an extended family in the southwest of the Netherlands, and the researchers were smart to focus on just that family and not the wider population. Rooting out genetic links to disease is notoriously difficult and often...
Identifying the genetic link required even more detailed detective work. Rather than compare the rates of depression and migraine of the relatives to those of the general population, the study compared rates within this isolated population itself. For each of the 977 people studied, they calculated how much DNA that...
Researchers like Terwindt and Schur have already begun hunting for the exact genes that may underlie both migraine and depression - information that could lead to novel treatments for both conditions. But headache sufferers needn't wait around for such results. "If you have a headache that is disabling and comes...
Neither of the Canadian patients fit that bill, but they did have one thing in common: illegal drug use, says Dr. Nancy Zhu, who treated the patients during her hematology fellowship at the University of Alberta Hospital in Edmonton. "We were theorizing that maybe it was something in the cocaine...
