Study Outlines Passenger Rail Systems Which Cost-effectively Prevent T
A RAND Corporation study issued recently gives rail security planners and policymakers a framework to develop cost-effective plans to secure their rail systems from terrorist attacks. Controlling Malaria Through Better Knowledge Of Genetics Of Plasmodium
The idea of completely eradicating malaria is becoming increasingly elusive, nevertheless the control of Plasmodium falciparum populations is a promising research avenue for limiting its spread. With that approach in mind, scientists investigated the parasite's population genetic structure in the diploid phase of its life cycle. This research study could therefore help efforts to make optimal use of present malaria control methods. Levels Of Prion Protein In Brain May Not Be Reliable Marker For Diseas

Identifying and treating HIV-infected newborns is a race against the clock, according to a study from the Stanford University School of Medicine and Lucile Packard Children's Hospital. Researchers found that HIV-infected infants treated with one or two antiretroviral drugs within two months of birth were less likely to develop AIDS by their third birthday than were infants who were 3 or 4 months old when treatment was initiated. Infants who received a combination of three antiretroviral drugs did even better.
