Health Research: Lab tests of e-cigarettes demonstrate cellular harm ♦ Study ties insurgency phase of Iraq War to higher PTSD rates ♦ Liquid salts deliver drugs through the skin with enhanced efficacy

Lab tests of e-cigarettes demonstrate cellular harm Two types of electronic cigarettes have been tested by researchers who found that they damaged cells in ways that could lead to cancer. The damage occurred even with nicotine-free versions of the products.
Germany: Significantly fewer severely injured patients than in 2000 About 18,000 people are severely injured every year in Germany. Earlier investigations, in 2000 and 2006, estimated that more than 32,000 people sustain multiple trauma each year. The newly calculated lower number likely reflects a reduction of severe injuries caused by road traffic and occupational accidents.
Liquid salts deliver drugs through the skin with enhanced efficacy, reduced toxicity Formulating drugs as liquid salts may provide a safe and efficient strategy for topical delivery of drugs that cause skin toxicity.
Study ties insurgency phase of Iraq War to higher PTSD rates Guerilla tactics such as suicide attacks and roadside bombs may trigger more post-traumatic stress than conventional warfare, suggests a new study of 738 Iraq veterans.
