Women performed best on cognitive tests during ovulation but physical activity level had a stronger influence on brain function, according to a new study from researchers at UCL.
New research reveals that "third-sector" services, such as those run by housing associations, are far more effective than government work programs at helping the long-term unemployed in deprived areas.
About 93% of U.S. adults access the internet, and 80% of those search for health information, despite low levels of proficiency in health literacy. In a new study, researchers have developed an automated approach to assess how easily understandable patient educational videos are for individuals looking for information on diabetes.
A team of researchers from Concordia University and McGill University has developed a "lab-on-a-chip" device that models how Alzheimer's disease advances in the brain.
To offer the best possible medical treatments, many health care providers and administrators in recent years have started to rely on patient personas.
Researchers at Cleveland Clinic Children's have helped identify a previously unknown gene that increases the risk of developing osteosarcoma, the most common type of malignant bone tumor in children and young adults.
Experts from around the globe will join together to take part in a new study looking at how Recovery Colleges (RCs) can be adapted so they can be shaped to meet mental health needs across very different cultures worldwide.
Early childhood developmental care coordination with the Information and Referral Federation of Los Angeles County 2-1-1 call center (211LA) is effective for helping families access services earlier than usual care alone, with benefits sustained at 24 months, according to a study published online Oct. 8 in Pediatrics.

However, recent trends show a decline in vaccination coverage, particularly for the diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis and inactivated poliovirus vaccine (DTaP-IPV) and measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccines.
According to the American Heart Association, valvular heart disease affects about 2.5% of adults in the United States, and more than 100,000 patients undergo valve replacement surgery each year. Typically, replacement heart valves require a compromise between long-term durability and lowered risk of blood clots, causing patients to potentially need subsequent surgery.
Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and Vividion Therapeutics have identified chemical compounds that can precisely block the interaction between the major cancer-driving gene RAS and a key pathway for tumor growth.
A team of researchers at the University of Kentucky Sanders-Brown Center on Aging now have a better understanding of how the brain's support cells communicate with blood vessels—a process that goes awry in Alzheimer's disease.
Two new studies by the Leibniz Institute for Prevention Research and Epidemiology–BIPS in Bremen show for the first time that air quality directly influences blood pressure (pre-hypertension and hypertension) and important markers for diabetes risk in children and adolescents. These findings were made possible by the use of causal inference methods to determine the effects of hypothetical interventions.
Ticks are found all over the world. There are more than 900 species, and many of them pass on dangerous diseases to both humans and animals.
Except for one key aspect, the setup is a familiar one in medicine: An expert diagnostician presents a particularly challenging case to a roomful of colleagues, carefully walking them through the patient's symptoms and initial test results. The physician explains her reasoning in detail as she breaks down the case and every possibility she considered, aided by a slide deck. At the end of the five-minute talk, she reveals her diagnosis and the next steps she would recommend.
