Health Research: Persistence yields progress in AIDS vaccine research ♦ Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy achieves better survival for early lung cancer

Fish can produce their own sunscreen, scientists have discovered. Following suit, the researchers have copied the method used by fish for potential use in humans.
Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy achieves better overall survival than surgery for early lung cancer Patients with operable stage I non-small cell lung cancer could achieve better overall survival rates if treated with Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy rather than the current standard of care – invasive surgery – according to research.
Medical marijuana pills may not help treat behavioral symptoms of dementia, such as aggression, pacing and wandering, a new study concludes. However, researchers did find that the drug dosage used in the clinical trial was safe and well-tolerated.

Anthropologists suggests that to muchtestosterone may be a prime culprit. Building on previous research they conducted with the Tsimane, an isolated indigenous population in central Bolivia, researchers examined the prevalence of BPH among a group of approximately 350 adult males.
After 30 years of working on AIDS research, an American lab has developed new vaccine candidates that appear promising enough to consider advancing into clinical trials within the next two years.
