Sports footwear manufacturers should ditch the "shrink it and pink it" approach to women's running shoes, because it fails to differentiate women's distinct anatomical and biomechanical needs across the life course from those of men, concludes a small qualitative study published in BMJ Open Sports & Exercise Medicine.
Loneliness and social isolation are linked to a heightened risk of death from cancer as well as from all causes among those with the disease, finds a pooled data analysis of the available research published online in the open access journal BMJ Oncology.
Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed a mathematical model that reveals how our circadian rhythms can have dramatic impacts on how our bodies interact with medicines.
Are sports apps only about competition and breaking personal records? Research conducted by scientists from SWPS University shows that cycling enthusiasts in Eastern Europe are increasingly treating digital tools as a path to well-being and comfort, not necessarily as a virtual racetrack.
An international study conducted by the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology and the Acute Myeloid Leukemia Cooperative Group reveals that age-based classifications in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) may be outdated and overly simplistic.
Medical drugs are expensive to make and can have an adverse effect on the environment. Researchers Stefano Cucurachi and Justin Lian have developed a framework to help the health care system assess the economic and environmental sustainability of medical compounds. The research is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
As age increases, the pancreas changes, which increases the risk of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, digestive disorders, and also cancer. Researchers at the German Institute of Human Nutrition Potsdam-Rehbruecke (DIfE) have now been able to show in an animal model that stellate cells, in interaction with blood vessels, play a key role in age-related changes in the pancreas. They published their results in the journal Redox Biology.
When we hear the word "twins," we tend to think of two identical people who share physical traits, and perhaps certain behaviors or quirks. However, in the world of technology this word has a different meaning. It refers to something both revolutionary and still relatively underexplored: digital twins.
Researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) have developed a new type of brain implant that can deliver drugs to multiple regions of the brain with high precision, offering fresh possibilities for the treatment of neurological disorders.
Layoff notices to some 740 workers at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have been rescinded.
Scientists have discovered a method to induce human endothelial cells from a small biopsy sample to multiply in the laboratory, producing more than enough cells to replace damaged blood vessels or nourish organs for transplantation, according to a preclinical study by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators.
Plant-based materials have traditionally been used to treat a variety of viral infections. Now, researchers have found that cardamom seed extract, as well as its main bioactive ingredient, 1,8-cineole, can have potent antiviral effects through its ability to enhance the production of antiviral molecules known as type I interferons via nucleic acid "sensors" inside cells.
The brain's mechanisms for repairing injuries caused by trauma or degenerative diseases are not yet known in detail. Now, a study from the University of Barcelona describes a new strategy based on stem cell therapy that could enhance neuronal regeneration and neuroplasticity when this vital organ is damaged.
Nervous system functions, from motion to perception to cognition, depend on the active zones of neural circuit connections (synapses) sending out the right amount of their chemical signals at the right times. By tracking how synaptic active zones form and mature in fruit flies, researchers at The Picower Institute for Learning and Memory at MIT have revealed a fundamental model for how neural activity during development builds properly working connections.
How can clinical guidelines be designed in such a way that they enable (contextually) equitable and inclusive health care—and at the same time promote research and innovation in a targeted manner? Professor Dr. Sabine Oertelt-Prigione, head of the Sex- and Gender-sensitive Medicine working group, and her colleagues discuss these questions in the Perspective article "Designing clinical practice guidelines for equitable, inclusive, and contextualized care."
A first-of-its-kind clinical study shows that offering modest monthly grocery cards for produce leads to improvements in blood pressure compared to distributing pre-selected boxes of healthy food.
Researchers at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in collaboration with Roche, have developed a next-generation human liver organoid microarray platform that could help predict which drugs may cause harmful immune reactions in some people.
South Africa's health minister on Tuesday called lenacapavir, the first twice-yearly HIV prevention jab in the world, a "groundbreaking" tool to fight the disease, but warned initial donated supply would be limited to nearly half a million people in the African country with the highest prevalence rate.
A new study led by researchers at the George Washington University and published through the DC Cohort, one of the largest HIV longitudinal studies in the United States, finds that nearly half of people living with HIV experience skin conditions—even in the modern era of highly effective antiretroviral therapy.
