New Study Helps Explain Why It Is Easy To Encode New Memories But Hard To Hold Onto Them
Memories aren"t made of actin filaments. But their assembly is crucial for long-term potentiation (LTP), an increase in synapse sensitivity that researchers think helps to lay down memories. In the July 13, 2009 issue of the Journal of Cell Biology, Rex et al. reveal that LTP"s actin reorganization occurs in two stages that are controlled by different pathways, a discovery that helps explain why it is easy to encode new memories but hard to hold onto them.

Additional "Unsuspected" Breast Cancers Not Seen On Mammography Or Ultrasound Detected By Breast MRI
A total of 199 patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer underwent breast MRI. "We found additional, unsuspected cancers in the ipsilateral breast (the one that had already been diagnosed with cancer) in 16% of patients; we found cancers in the contralateral breast (the one that had not been diagnosed with cancer) in 4% of patients," said Petra J. Lewis, MD, lead author of the study. "These patients had already had bilateral mammography and these tumors had not been apparent on mammography," said Dr. Lewis.

Reducing Maternal Death In Bangladesh - Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists

New strategies to reduce maternal death in Bangladesh will be presented at the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) South Asia Day. The conference gathers together a group of international experts to discuss ways to achieve Millennium Development Goals 4 (reduce child mortality) and 5 (improve maternal health). The maternal mortality ratio has significantly declined in Bangladesh, from 512 deaths per 100,000 live births in 1996-2000, to 320 deaths per 100,000 live births in 2007. One of the main reasons for this is the decrease in unsafe abortion and abortion-related complications due to the wide availability of abortion services. Maternal deaths have also been reduced through improved access to contraception, skilled birth attendants, antenatal care and obstetric surgery. Despite these gains, challenges remain for many women in Bangladesh, especially those who live in rural and hard to reach areas. Women in deprived areas are less likely to be able to afford health care and transport costs, and face more limited access to skilled health providers and medical facilities. Professor AHM Towhidul Anowar Chowdhury, from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Bangladesh Institute of Research and Rehabilitation in Diabetes, Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders, said "to achieve MDG 5 there is a need to increase the existing skilled manpower and functioning of emergency obstetric care centres. We need to ensure quality of services and utilisation. This is especially important for women in rural areas, who face the greatest barriers and who often lack information about the danger signs during pregnancy. "We need to speed up our efforts to reduce maternal mortality. Every day women"s lives are being lost and there is no time to waste." Notes The South Asia Day conference is taking place at the RCOG in London on Friday 3 July 2009. This event is being organised jointly by the RCOG, All India Coordinating Committee (AICC RCOG) and South Asian Federation of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (SAFOG).
