		<description><![CDATA[Too many U.S. women are having the more drastic, more expensive open biopsy once a mammogram detects an abnormality, according to a new study conducted at one academic medical center. This is diagnostic overkill given the facts that 80% of all such breast abnormalities eventually prove to be benign and that minimally invasive needle biopsy techniques have been available for years.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=medicalconsumers.org&amp;blog=7088906&amp;post=1239&amp;subd=medconsumers&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the many information sources used in preparing our articles is Therapeutics Initiative, which publishes a free online newsletter. This project was established in 1994 by the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics in cooperation with the Department of Family Practice at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver. According to this Web site, its purpose is “to provide physicians and pharmacists with up to date, evidence-based, practical information on rational drug therapy. The Initiative is an independent organization, which is at arms length from government, pharmaceutical industry and other vested interest groups.”<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=medicalconsumers.org&amp;blog=7088906&amp;post=1189&amp;subd=medconsumers&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is no scientific consensus about the cause of breast cancer, according to Richard G. Stevens, PhD, Professor and Cancer Epidemiologist at the University of Connecticut Health Center, Farmington. That’s as true today as it was in 1987 when Dr. Stevens began to publish a new theory about exposure to electric light at night and how it may trigger disruptions in the body’s circadian rhythm—that is, the cyclical changes that recur regularly over a 24-hour period. These disruptions, in turn, can cause hormonal disturbances implicated in the development of breast cancer.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=medicalconsumers.org&amp;blog=7088906&amp;post=1174&amp;subd=medconsumers&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For cardiovascular and other health benefits like increased longevity, you need only exercise moderately for 30 minutes at least five days a week. That has been the recommendation for nearly 15 years, and it has decades of high-quality research to back it up. In an attempt to refine things further, a team of researchers asked the questions: Can this exercise recommendation be cut back further and still produce health benefits? Will 45 minutes five days of the week provide even more?<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=medicalconsumers.org&amp;blog=7088906&amp;post=1133&amp;subd=medconsumers&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
