BEIJING, Oct. 11 (Xinhuanet) -- For women, chocolate consumption needs to be high, which can lower stroke risk, researchers from the Karolinska Institute, Sweden, reported in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. The consumption of chocolate has been demonstrated to reduce diastolic and systolic blood pressure in randomized, short-term trials. Chocolate has also been shown to improve endothelial and platelet function, and to improve insulin resistance.Susanna Larsson Ph.D. and the team conducted the research on the Swedish Mammography Cohort's 33,372 adult females aged from 49 to 83 years without history of stroke, coronary heart disease, stroke, or diabetes.They found those who ate at least two chocolate bars each week appeared to have a 20 percent lower risk of stroke, compared to those of the same age and weight who rarely or never ate chocolate. But, they found, it was only those in the highest quartile of chocolate consumption who had a significant drop in stroke risk.The researchers explained that cocoa has flavonoids - powerful antioxidants that can suppress LDL, low-density lipoprotein, that can cause stroke and other cardiovascular diseases.

BEIJING, Jan. 8 (Xinhua) -- China's central authorities have highlighted travel safety as the nation on Sunday officially kicked off the world's largest holiday migration, a time in which mass numbers of passengers will be homeward bound for the traditional Chinese Spring Festival.Safe travel has emerged as a hot-button issue facing the government as passenger trips during the 40-day travel peak are expected to hit a record high of over 3 billion.Liu Tienan, vice chief of the National Development and Reform Commission, the country's top economic planner, told the press on Sunday that passenger transport during the period is not looking good as the enormous migration outweighs existing transportation capacities.?A volunteer guides passengers to their train at Chengdu Railway Station in Chengdu, capital of southwest China's Sichuan Province, Jan. 7, 2012. Starting from Jan. 8, 2012, China's transport system will undergo a 40-day travel rush, which is characterized by a hightened passenger flow around the time of the oncoming Chinese New Year.Liu warned of the likelihood of heavy snow and icy rain that could hamper travel while vowing greater efforts to avoid another travel disaster, as was seen in early 2008 when unprecedented heavy snow and freezing rain inundated the south of the country, bringing traffic to a standstill during the peak holiday season.A total of 3.16 billion passenger trips are expected during the next 40 days, up 9.1 percent from a year earlier, of which, 235 million trips will be made via the country's railways, up 6.1 percent year-on-year.Hu Yadong, vice minister of railways, said a daily average of 5.88 million people will make train trips during the period, 340,000 more than the corresponding period in 2011.At the Beijing Railway Station on Sunday, staff members checked passengers' train tickets and ID cards, as an ID-based train ticket purchasing system kicked off nationwide at the start of the new year in an effort to curb ticket scalping.

MINSK, Oct. 11 (Xinhua) -- Chinese telecommunications firm Huawei on Tuesday showcased its latest solutions in mobile broadband at an exhibition in Belarus.Focusing on the possibilities of expanding the capacity of mobile operators' networks, the solutions propose to use fourth-generation network standards and introduce elements of intelligent network resources.The exhibition also presented the latest generation of radios, transportation equipment, and terminal solutions."Mobile traffic is constantly increasing, but profit is not growing so fast - about 20 to 30 percent," Xu Zhidong, general director of Bel Huawei Technologies, said during the opening ceremony of the exhibition."We need to provide more services. In addition, the market should be presented by more terminal devices. The decisions, which are displayed at the exposition, will not only increase the volume of Internet traffic, but also increase average profit per subscriber," he added.Lu Guicheng, China's ambassador to Belarus, said Huawei has seen a very successful development, including in the Belarussian market.Huawei, China's largest telecommunications company, which began investing in Belarus in 2003, signed an agreement with the Eastern European nation last month to set up a network technology training center in Belarus for telecommunications technology research and training.It also agreed last month to help more than 300 Belarussian companies with their information technology construction over the next four years.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7 (Xinhua) -- The use of two drugs never tried in combination before in ovarian cancer resulted in a 70 percent destruction of cancer cells already resistant to commonly used chemotherapy agents, say researchers at Mayo Clinic in Florida.Their report, published on-line Wednesday in Gynecologic Oncology, suggests that this combination, ixabepilone and sunitinib, might offer a much needed treatment option for women with advanced ovarian cancer.Neither drug is approved for use in ovarian cancer. Ixabepilone is a chemotherapy drug that, like other taxane drugs, targets the microtubules and stops dividing cells from forming a spindle. It has been approved for use in metastatic breast cancer. Sunitinib, approved for use in kidney cancer, belongs to a class of tyrosine kinase inhibitors that stops growth signals from reaching inside cancer cells.When caught at late stages, ovarian cancer is often fatal because it progressively stops responding to the chemotherapy drugs used to treat it."Women die from ovarian cancer because their tumors become resistant to chemotherapy, so a drug that might be able to reduce that resistance -- which may be what this combination of agents is doing -- would be a boon to treatment of this difficult cancer," says study coauthor Gerardo Colon-Otero.The finding also highlights the importance of the role of a molecule, RhoB, that the researchers say is activated by the drug duo. It might be a potential biomarker that may help identify patients who might benefit from such combination therapy, the researchers say.
