Description: SPRINGFIELD – Governor Rod R. Blagojevich and Comptroller Dan Hynes today sent a letter to thirty doctors and scientists currently conducting stem cell research in Missouri encouraging them to explore research opportunities in Illinois. Last month, the Governor and Comptroller made Illinois the first state in the Midwest, and only the fourth state in the nation, to commit public funds to the life-saving work of stem cell research. Studying stem cells allows scientists and doctors to better understand what causes serious medical illnesses and conditions in hopes of discovering new ways to treat or even cure them.

683. Are migraines headaches actually triggered by the heart?

Description: UNDATED -- Doctors are testing migraine patients to determine if the debilitating headache is actually triggered by the heart - not the brain. They think the very small microclots that can cause a stroke may also trigger migraines. The clots come from a very small hole in the heart that everyone is born with, but usually closes up as we get older. The heart-migraine connection was first noticed when patients who had their heart-hole closed because they’d suffered a stroke - also stopped having migraines.

Description: Heart disease is the No. 1 killer in industrialized nations. It is referred to as the "silent killer" because there are no warning sings before a heart attack or stroke occurs. Frequently, the first warning sign of heart disease is a heart attack or stroke. Fifty percent of those that have a heart attack survive. For the other fifty percent the heart attack proves fatal. Substantial evidence indicates that consumption of omega three fatty acids reduces the risk of heart disease, particularly the risk of a fatal heart attack or stroke.

2005-08-11 12:13:25
Description: ROSTOCK, GERMANY - German scientists said Thursday they have discovered a rare genetic defect that causes strokes in young people. The abnormality emerged in a study of 700 stroke victims aged 18 to 55. Doctors at the University of Rostock hospital said many suffered from a condition known as Morbus Fabry, where a certain enzyme is missing from the body, leading to blood vessels blocking. That in turn caused strokes and organ failures. Arndt Rolfs, who led the study, said 5 per cent of the stroke victims studied had Morbus Fabry.

Description: Hot Cocoa Has Heart Benefits, Study Says POSTED: 10:19 am EDT August 10, 2005 Cocoa, aside from offering a delightful flavor, has long been used as a medicine for many ailments. New research suggests that the treat may also have a beneficial effect on heart disease and stroke. A research team in Southampton in England found that drinking a cup of cocoa can help prevent potentially fatal blood clots. The findings will be presented Wednesday at a meeting of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis in Sydney, Australia. Blood clots that lodge in the brain or heart could cause a stroke or a heart attack. Cells in the blood called platelets are necessary for clotting to occur, and the researchers found that cocoa inhibits platelet function.
