Traditionally, farmers try to reduce their exposure to risks like crop failure (from bad rains or crop parasites) by minimising their investment in farming inputs.

#UCLA study IDS two genes that boost risk for posttraumatic stress disorder Why do some people develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

suggesting that heredity influences a person's risk of developing PTSD. Published in the February 2015 edition of the Journal of Affective disorders, the findings could provide a biological basis for diagnosing

"Our results indicate that people who carry these genetic variants may be at higher risk of developing PTSD."

"We hope our findings will lead to molecular methods for screening people at risk for this disorder

"A diagnostic tool based upon PTSD-linked genes would greatly help us in identifying people who are at high risk for developing the disorder,

"If we can use neuroimaging to identify individuals at high risk for future failure, we may be able to help those individuals avoid such failure altogether."

and better manage financial risk is a bright spot in advancing the development of a clean energy economy powered by a modernized and climate-resilient electricity infrastructure.

This competition creates an artificially inflated perception of risk, which can strand innovative business models and new technologies in

Credit enhancement A key principle of green banks is that they use public dollars strategically to reduce perceived risks for private investors in undertaking investments in clean energy projects.

State green banks should employ a range of credit-enhancement mechanisms from establishing loan-loss reserve funds to originating subordinated debt into individual transactions and developing new insurance products or other risk-mitigation strategies.

#Massive study closes in on cancers risk markers Cancer research has taken a huge leap forward with scientists now able to identify more than 80 genetic markers found to increase the risk of breast ovarian and prostate cancer.

which has played a significant part in making this global effort a tremendous success. The main findings of the project COGS('Collaborative Oncological Gene-Environment Study')have been published in a special issue on genetic risk factors

and those without, to assess each individual's inherited risk. Overall, the study found that common genetic variation links all these cancers.

Each alteration was seen to raise the risk of ovarian, breast or prostate cancer by a small amount,

although a small minority of men with several markers saw their risk of prostate cancer increase more than fourfold.

Results of the studies on women revealed that with certain spelling mistakes the risk of breast cancer,

In addition, the test also identified those with a smaller than average risk of developing the cancers.

'With this new information, researchers now have a clearer picture of the total number of genetic changes that can explain the risk of getting these cancers.

The next step is to calculate the individual cancer risk, which will help to better understand how these cancers start

'COGS is the largest genotyping project in the world targeting identification of genetic changes that influence the risk of common cancers.

and the key to its success.'Other financial contributors to the COGS project are the Märit and Hans Rausing Initiative against Breast cancer, the Swedish Research Council, Cancer Research UK and the Cancer Risk Prediction

would mean less invasive and more cost-effective procedures, lower risks of infection and improved overall outcomes,

and the EU-10 parts per billion-are exceeded at great risk to the population, "explained project coordinator Christos Koukiotis of Loufakis Chemicals."

or bra could be increased at risk of radiation exposure, said Joel M. Moskowitz, director of the Center for Family and Community Health at University of California, Berkeley School of Public health.

or that it shows there is no risk. In 2011, the World health organization classified the kind of low energy radiation that cell phones emit as"possibly carcinogenic"because of a link between cell phone use and a type of malignant brain tumor called glioma and a benign brain tumor called acoustic neuroma.

Although THE WHO classification sounds ominous, it puts cell phones on the same level of cancer risk as caffeine and pickled vegetables.

had 40%to 70%higher glioma risk.""There are individual studies and findings that do produce a risk,

but on balance the judgment has to be made on the totality (of the evidence), "Savitz said,

"We know quite a bit (about the risk) actually and it seems extremely unlikely that there is an effect.

We are down to the range that there is no risk or a risk that is almost too small to detect,

"Savitz said. Although Samet, THE WHO panel leader, agrees that we probably know the risk is not great,

he still thinks it could exist.""I think if it were terribly large, we would have more consistent results from epidemiological data.

These pictures are compatible with perhaps a weak or moderate risk, "he said. Another argument against the possibility that cell phones cause cancer is that there has not been an increase in the incidence of brain tumors in the United states,

Savitz said that it is difficult to imagine how this type of exposure could put people at risk.

whether there is a risk, he said. Another question is whether cell phone use affects the health of children,

climate change poses real financial risks and substantial economic opportunities and we must act now. The letter was sent to the EPA, the Obama Administration,

Oral pills are used in the US for people who are considered at risk for HIV infection,

because the team earlier research had shown that a lack of parental nurturing is an important risk factor for recurrence of depression.

Luby group also found that school age children had a high risk of depression if their mothers were depressed.

And they noted that children diagnosed with a conduct disorder as preschoolers had elevated an risk of depression by school age and early adolescence,

but this risk declined if the children were found to have significant maternal support. But neither a mother with depression nor a conduct disorder in preschool increased the risk for later depression as much as a diagnosis of depression during preschool years. reschool depression predicted school age depression over and above any of the other well-established risk factors,

Luby explains. hose children appear to be on a trajectory for depression that independent of other psychosocial variables.

The decline in stroke risk was concentrated mainly in the over-65 set, however, with little progress in reducing strokes among younger people.

and diabeteshich often go hand-in-hand with obesityhey will face increased risk for stroke, he says.

For the study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers used data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study,

Decreases in stroke incidence and mortality are partly due to more successful control of risk factors such as blood pressure or smoking and to the wide use of statin medications to control cholesterol.

#Depression can be deadly for older Americans Older adults in the US who suffer from major depression face a 43 percent increased risk of death, especially from cardiovascular disease or cancer, according to a new study. here a major link

or experiencing chronic conditions that contribute to a higher risk of mortality. OMETHING UNIQUE ABOUT DEPRESSIONWHEN the researchers adjusted for factors such as marital status, education, employment status, family income, alcohol consumption, level of physical activity, smoking status, body mass, functional limitations,

and chronic conditions, they still found an independent association among major depression and increased risk of non-suicide mortality among the age group.

This includes findings that major depression was associated with 2. 68 times the risk of cardiovascular disease mortality among those who did not have cardiovascular disease at the baseline.

but it also important because it stands as an independent risk factor in mortality. There might be something unique about depression,

that there something about depression that might lead to an increased risk of mortality. He says related research has suggested major depression may have a physiological effect on blood pressure or arterial tightening that can cause cardiovascular disease. t physiologically important

but it also socially important to think of depression as a risk factor for death as well,

and that you continue to see that risk of mortality goes down once you start accounting for some of these health behaviors,

and linking the data to the residential addresses of approximately 1000 participants in the Northern California-based Childhood Risk of Autism from Genetics and the Environment (CHARGE) Study.

Organophosphates applied over the course of pregnancy were associated with an elevated risk of autism spectrum disorder particularly for chlorpyrifos applications in the second trimester.

##Research from the CHARGE Study has emphasized the importance of maternal nutrition during pregnancy particularly the use of prenatal vitamins to reduce the risk of having a child with autism.

While it s impossible to entirely eliminate risks due to environmental exposures Hertz-Picciotto says that finding ways to reduce exposures to chemical pesticides particularly for the very young is important.##
