The newspapers report few details from a generally well-conducted laboratory study comparing methods for establishing oestrogen receptor status and ERBB2 status of breast cancer.

The newspapers were generally accurate in their reports of a large randomised controlled trial, the findings of which are likely to be reliable.

The reports were based on a large prospective cohort study, however, further research is needed to confirm the study's findings.

The articles appear to be based partly on a press release announcing funding into research to develop a synthetic form of pancreatic polypeptide which may be used to suppress appetite.

In general, the reports accurately summarised the results of a study that found that blood concentrations of a protein called NT-proBNP were related to cardiovascular risk in a large group of heart disease patients.

They all accurately reported two year survival results of a large trial, but not all mentioned the increased risk of side-effects. Further publications of long-term efficacy and safety are awaited to confirm these initial results.

One newspaper report did not address the risks associated with the drug. Limitations in the trial design hamper the reliability of the findings.

The reports appear to be based in part on a news item on the MRC website. It is not possible to comment on the reported trial results as we have been unable to identify the source of the information.

The reports appear to be based on a conference abstract and press release. It is not possible to comment on the reliability of the findings as full study details are not available. [Latest Hitting the Headlines story - written by CRD for the NLH.] http://www.library.nhs.uk/rss/newsAndRssArticle.aspx?uri=http://www.library.nhs.uk/resources/?id=212887 Wed, 06 Dec 2006 14:00:00 GMT Expensive modern drugs for people with schizophrenia are no better than cheaper medicines that have been used for decades, reported The Guardian (24 November 2006).

The current project provides a systematic review of the evidence on the clinical effectiveness of self care support networks in health and social care. [CRD Report 34] http://www.york.ac.uk/inst/crd/crdrep.htm#report34 Mon, 06 Nov 2006 11:00:00 GMT Implantation of an artificial heart pump combined with drug treatment may reverse advanced heart failure, reported two newspapers (2 November 2006). The newspapers accurately reported the findings of a small uncontrolled study in a highly selected group of patients, but their claims that thousands of patients may benefit appear premature. [Latest Hitting the Headlines story - written by CRD for the NLH.] http://www.library.nhs.uk/rss/newsAndRssArticle.aspx?uri=http://www.library.nhs.uk/resources/?id=191139 Mon, 06 Nov 2006 11:00:00 GMT Scientists have developed a 'sticking plaster' that may make treatment more convenient for patients with skin cancer, reported four newspapers (30 October 2006).

On 18 October 2006 one newspaper reported that an anti-obesity pill (rimonabant) helps people lose weight. The newspaper reflected the results of a well-conducted systematic review. However, as the review authors pointed out, the included studies were limited and further research is required. http://www.library.nhs.uk/rss/newsAndRssArticle.aspx?uri=http://www.library.nhs.uk/resources/?id=187359 Fri, 20 Oct 2006 09:00:00 GMT Latest Hitting the Headlines story -
