  • Menopause: Relaxation good therapy for hot flushes

  • Just ten minutes in a car with a smoker boosts harmful pollutants by up to thirty percent
  • Human obedience: The myth of blind conformity
  • Are social networking Internet sites a factor in psychotic symptoms?
  • Smoking in pregnancy tied to lower reading scores
  • Chronic pain in parents appears associated with chronic pain in adolescents and young adults
  • Happy youngsters more likely to grow into wealthy adults, study finds
