A group of researchers at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) has recently developed a new stem cell therapy with a remarkable ability to reverse new-onset type 1 diabetes (T1D) in a mouse model of the...

The rods and cones in your eyes are responsible for helping you see, but what is responsible for helping them? Retinal pigment epithelium cells are their caretakers, but environmental, genetic and aging factors can...

A new noninvasive technology, called broadband optical spectroscopy (BOS), has promise for reliably detecting necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in premature infants at earlier stages, before this devastating intestinal...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions are challenging the traditional understanding of how cancer drugs called histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors function. For decades, scientists...

Psychological therapies may be evaluated using research methods designed for drugs rather than talking treatments—potentially limiting patient choice and shaping mental health services in the wrong way—according to a...

A looming public health crisis may be spreading from Britain's fields to its hospitals, experts—which include University of Manchester scientists—have warned—with common farm chemicals potentially fueling deadly...

A novel PET radiotracer can accurately detect deep vein thrombosis in the legs and reveal whether clots have migrated to the lungs. By enabling whole-body imaging of blood clots in a single scan, the approach may...

Infections should be considered a "health hazard" in people living with diabetes, with experts warning that current clinical guidelines fail to reflect a substantial but underrecognized burden of illness,...

For a long time, the likelihood of surviving pancreatic cancer has been extremely low. For patients who were diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer between 2015 and 2021, about 97% died within five years of their...

A research team has developed technology that uses artificial intelligence to analyze electroencephalogram signals triggered by thermal stimuli and objectively classify pain intensity. The study is published in IEEE...

Chromosomal instability is a common feature in many solid tumors and is associated with greater aggressiveness. For years, its main contribution to cancer was thought to be driving the evolution of tumor genomes,...

A phase 1 clinical trial testing the safety of a leishmaniasis vaccine is set to begin in the coming months—the first vaccine created to protect against the disfiguring skin disease common in tropical regions of the...

University of Cincinnati and Ohio State University researchers have found that adults with developmental disabilities who have integrated care were less likely to go to the emergency room or be hospitalized than those...

A combination of two widely available anti-rheumatic drugs offers the first effective and affordable treatment for patients with Sjögren's disease with systemic disease activity, according to new results from a...

A new doctoral thesis from Karolinska Institutet shows that the balance system can be assessed during the first months of life. Using new, child-friendly methods, health care services can detect vestibular dysfunction...

A team of experimental oncology researchers at the University of Alberta is shedding light on how the deadly brain cancer glioblastoma spreads. In newly published research, they identify a potential treatment target...

Selenium (Se) is an essential trace mineral found in everyday dietary items, such as seafood, meat, and whole grains. Our bodies depend on it for many biological functions, from the synthesis of antioxidant enzymes to...

Among adults with both obesity and an autoimmune disease, those taking a glucagon-like peptide-receptor 1 agonist (GLP-1RA) medication had lower rates of emergency department visits and were less likely to experience...

The Biostatistics Unit at the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP), in collaboration with researchers from several Catalan health care and research institutions, has published the DIVINE study database in...

If you follow wellness channels on social media, you might've come across the claim that your grip strength—or how firmly you can squeeze something with your hands—can predict how long you will live.

She says slowing down, sleeping more and ditching perfectionism helped her make far better progress in the gym than chasing quick fixes ever did
