What impact does new research have for your health care? In an article published February 1 in the Journal Nature Biotechnology a predictor of breast cancer outcomes is explored.(Taylor et. al., 2009) Changes in the structure of the human protein interaction network appear to provide useful indication of breast cancer prognosis. According to the American Cancer Society there were 184,000 new cases of breast cancer diagnosed in 2008. Research like that reported by Taylor et. al. is helpful after diagnosis. What we all have to do is make a conscious decision to track our own health events and be on the alert for anything that seems abnormal. Early detection of changes is often critical to effective treatment.
The important issue is that by engaging in regular self examination and tracking changes in your health is a vital and effective management approach. Health nexxus is designed to support you in this effort.
