It has hammered home the message that every one pound in four that it spends has to be borrowed (sotto voce, thanks to Gordon Brown). A beneficial spin-off seems to be growing awareness that whatever it might say about ?ring-fencing? the health service budget, the role of the NHS as an all-enveloping cradle-to-grave service has run its course. Diabetes UK mentioned.

Migraine cause 'identified' as genetic defect
Scientists have identified a genetic defect linked to migraine which could provide a target for new treatments. A flawed gene found in a family of migraine sufferers could help trigger the severe headaches, a study in Nature Medicine suggests.
