Health News of the Day

Health News of the Day is a daily summary made from the selected links I post on Twitter. It is in a bullet points format with links to the original sources which include 350 RSS feeds that produce about 2,500 items per day:

Combined gabapentin and nortriptyline seems to be more efficacious than either drug given alone for neuropathic pain http://bit.ly/2yUgJz

"The feminisation of Britain's medical workforce is underway. Are women safer doctors?" asks The Lancet http://bit.ly/3v594W

Hormone replacement possibly leads to the development of more aggressive lung cancers and decreases survival http://bit.ly/JYTN8

13 million preterm babies were born worldwide; 85% of these births (11 million births) occurred in Africa and Asia. Rate of preterm birth in U.S. has increased by 35% in the past 25 years, due to assisted reproductive technologies http://bit.ly/13S9fK
