      <description><![CDATA[(Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Researchers at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine have discovered that people with higher levels of cadmium in their urine, which means they experienced chronic exposure to the heavy metal found in tobacco smoke and industrial emissions, are 3.5 times more likely to die of liver disease than people with lower levels.

      <description><![CDATA[(Ivanhoe Newswire) – A new study suggests living near a major road may impair kidney function, thus raising the risk of stroke and heart disease. In the study, researchers measured the serum creatinine of more than 1,100 adults who had a stroke between 1999 and 2004 upon their hospital admittance. Serum creatinine is filtered out by the kidneys in a process called glomerular filtration rate and this GFR can indicate if kidneys are functioning properly.
