Biomarkers found for postmenopausal cardiovascular disease

admin — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 07:00:02 +0000

Analysis of blood protein data from the Women’s Health Initiative cohorts has revealed new biomarkers for stroke and coronary heart disease (CHD). Research published in BioMed Central’s open access journal Genome Medicine found that beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) levels were significantly elevated in postmenopausal women with CHD, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 4 (IGFBP4) was strongly associated with stroke.

Eddies against the wall

admin — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 05:40:03 +0000

Fluids experts writing in the journal Physics of Fluids, which is published by the American Institute of Physics, are projecting it will be many decades before we can accurately probe the properties of turbulence near walls. High-Reynolds-number flows (which are prone to turbulence) are critically important in aeronautics, naval applications, energy conversion processes, manufacturing, mixing and dilution of pollutants, and in many aspects of climate modeling, according to Professor Hassan Nagib at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago.

Artificially controlling water condensation leads to ‘room-temperature ice’

admin — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 05:30:03 +0000

Earth’s climate is strongly influenced by the presence of particles of different shapes and origins — in the form of dust, ice and pollutants — that find their way into the lowest portion of the atmosphere, the troposphere. There, water adsorbed on the surface of these particles can freeze at higher temperatures than pure water droplets, triggering rain and snow.

First Look Over in Singapore Nokia is getting busy announcing a whole host of new midrange handsets at its Connection event. So the Nokia bods thought it was only right that it gave ample airing to its flagship smartphone, the Nokia N8, over here in Britain.We’ve seen the hardware before , when we showed it off in glorious lime green. Pocket-lint was on hand once again to give it a going over to determine whether or not Nokia’s new star player has a chance of competing with Apple and Android in the heavily contested smartphone market.The main selling point of the N8 is that it is the first Nokia handset to feature the Symbian^3 operating system

Street version of extreme off-roader rolls off the production line

admin — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 09:10:04 +0000

The first street version of the extreme off-roader made famous by Top Gear rolled off the UK production line this month – and was shipped straight to Uganda.The virtually indestructible Wildcat 300STR had been ordered by a customer keen to make an impression at his local golf club.As well as the usual Wildcat features – V8 petrol engine, fully welded tubular chassis, heavy duty differentials and drive shafts – the first production 300STR added air conditioning, Bluetooth, iPod dock, stereo hi-fi and enough space in the rear for a set of clubs.That particular Wildcat may be winding its way to East Africa, but it is now the template for a fully fledged road-going version of the Dakar Rally veteran.
