30 Aug 2010 at 11:00pm If your body releases cortisol with fixed regularity then you can cope with stress better, according to new Dutch research into the rhythm of corticosterone production in rats. This rat hormone is comparable to the human stress hormone cortisol. Rats deal considerably less well with stress if the pattern of corticosterone release changes. An irregular release pattern is a characteristic of chronic stress and stress-related diseases. It might therefore be possible to treat these by restoring the rhythm. 29 Aug 2010 at 11:00pm Anger, depression and helplessness are the main psychological responses being seen in response to the catastrophic Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and they are likely to have long-lasting effects, according to experts. 26 Aug 2010 at 7:00am Clinical depression and anxiety during pregnancy results in smaller babies that are more likely to die in infancy, according to new research.

Such secondary pathways could help explain why different people taking the same drug can experience different effects, and could also lead to new types of drugs altogether. 18 Aug 2010 at 4:00am Individuals with psoriasis appear to have an increased risk of depression, anxiety and suicidality, according to a new study. 18 Aug 2010 at 1:00am Nutritionist are taking a closer look at the role the B vitamins may play in preventing decline in brain function. 18 Aug 2010 at 1:00am Training health visitors to assess and psychologically support mothers after childbirth can prevent the development of depression over the following year, shows a new analysis of data from a full scale clinical trial in adults. 16 Aug 2010 at 11:00pm Researchers have examined how a specialized Iyengar yoga program for breast cancer survivors makes a difference in their recovery. 16 Aug 2010 at 4:00am The emotional pains we suffer in childhood can lead to weakened immune systems later in life, according to a new study.
