Radiotherapy and birth risks Women who receive radiotherapy for childhood cancers have increased risk of their pregnancies resulting in stillbirth, BBC News has reported.

Ecstasy tested for trauma therapy "Ecstasy can treat trauma patients," reported The Independent today. It said that the drug had a 'dramatic effect' on people who suffered post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and who did not respond to other treatments.

Vaccine patch could replace jabs "The conventional flu jab could be replaced by a skin patch," says The Guardian. The patch, which is coated in microscopic dissolving spikes, is designed to deliver the flu vaccine into the skin without the need for a syringe.

Hunt for universal flu vaccine "A single flu jab that kills off any strain of the virus for decades will soon be a reality," reported the Daily Express.
