New research presented at the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Congress 2025 reveals that people with psoriasis face a significantly increased risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss.
When we think of movement disorders, the tremors associated with Parkinson's disease are probably what first spring to mind. However, there are other equally debilitating and much less well-known conditions that profoundly affect quality of life for those who suffer from them.
A new UBC-led study finds that migrant youth in Canada are less likely to be sexually active than their Canadian-born peers—but among those who are, contraception use is declining. The findings point to systemic barriers in sexual health education and access, rather than individual behaviors, and highlight the need for culturally relevant support for newcomer adolescents.
A Swedish-led research team at Karolinska Institutet and Karolinska University Hospital has shown in a new randomized clinical trial that a low dose of the well-known medicine aspirin halves the risk of recurrence after surgery in patients with colon and rectal cancer with a certain type of genetic alteration in the tumor.
A new study co-authored by Tracy Crane, Ph.D., RDN, co-leader of the Cancer Control Program at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, shows that remote perioperative monitoring (RPM) significantly improves recovery for cancer surgery patients.
A novel targeted radiation approach for a rare form of malignant tumor—the solitary fibrous tumor (SFT)—has shown significant success, achieving a near-complete response in three patients. The therapy significantly reduced cancer activity and provided symptom relief, underscoring its potential as a viable treatment option. This research appears in The Journal of Nuclear Medicine.
In amateur soccer players, more frequent heading, or using the head to control or pass the ball, is linked to alterations within the folds of the brain, according to a study published in Neurology. The study does not prove that soccer heading causes brain changes, it only shows an association.
A new study suggests that physical frailty may contribute to the development of dementia. The study was published in Neurology.
Getting out of bed in the morning without the risk of passing out is a game-changer for 32-year-old Cody Krebs. In 2022, Krebs experienced a severe spinal cord injury (SCI) in a motor vehicle accident. Since that time, Krebs requires the use of a wheelchair. The damage to his spinal cord means his brain can no longer control blood pressure in his body. He was vulnerable to blood pressure drops where he was at risk of losing consciousness, and spikes placing him at risk of a heart attack and stroke.
All current local anesthetics block sensory signals—pain—but they also interrupt motor signals, which can be problematic. For example, too much epidural anesthesia can prevent mothers in labor from being able to push. Prolonged local anesthesia after orthopedic surgery can leave patients unable to participate in rehab.
The cumulative influenza-associated hospitalization rate for the 2024 to 2025 season surpassed all end-of-season rates during the period beginning with the 2010 to 2011 season, according to research published in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
Bariatric surgery is associated with a significantly lower risk for developing major metabolic comorbidities compared with a medical weight management program for adults with obesity, according to a study published online Sept. 9 in JAMA Network Open.
People who have experienced more than one tattoo session may have a decreased risk of the skin cancer melanoma—with one key caveat, according to research from Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah (the U).
Pancreatic cancer remains one of the biggest challenges in the field of oncology. Numbers of cases are increasing, and the latest personalized therapies and immunotherapy are not yet yielding results. Much of the effort is focused on detecting the tumor as early as possible, because the majority of cases are diagnosed at a late stage. But the research also aims to help make the best clinical decision after diagnosis.
A powder based on morin, a natural compound extracted from plants such as guava leaves, apple and fig peels, certain teas, and almonds, has shown antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects against bacteria that cause periodontal disease. It is expected that the substance, released in a controlled manner through polymers, will help with nonsurgical treatments as an alternative to antibiotics for controlling microorganisms.
Concussion and other traumatic brain injuries impact an estimated 69 million people every year, as a result of sports collisions, falls, road accidents and interpersonal violence. There are few treatments, and no approved and effective pharmacotherapies.
Researchers from the University of Birmingham's Bladder Cancer Research Center have used a new method to detect chemical changes in the DNA in an individual's urine sample; epigenetic changes, called methylation.
A new study by researchers from the University of Birmingham and the University of Turku, Finland has revealed an important clue as to why immunotherapy fails in many patients with cancer.
Researchers in Berlin have used base editing to repair mutations that cause the kidney disorder ADPKD in cells from both mice and humans. In mice, a team led by Michael Kaminski was able to ease a key symptom of the difficult-to-treat disease.
