...however, a study in the journal Neurology suggests a more basic connection: genes. "Most people think that migraine patients are depressed because they have headaches," says the study's co-author, Dr. Gisela Terwindt, a neurologist at Leiden University in the Netherlands. "We found that there is a genetic predisposition by people with migraines to be depressed...
...medical community remains divided over whether to publicize asphyxiation games. "There's a fear that if you raise awareness then other people will start to copy it," Field says. Last year, the medical journal Pediatrics reported that one-third of American doctors had never heard of the choking game and only 2% had ever discussed it with teenage patients or their parents.

In a study in the journal Injury Prevention published last February, nearly half...

The results of the Posit-funded study show that the software users improved their mental speed by about 60% compared with 7% in the control group...

Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper called it a "humiliating blow to Gallic pride," while the Wall Street Journal said that France had gotten a "dose of its own medicine." But the French may have been less guilty of applying double standards than of using the same kind of savvy marketing strategies that have allowed new wine-producing countries like New Zealand to give France a run for its money...
