Legislation to restrict supermarket sales of foods high in fat, sugar or salt (HFSS) has led to a marked reduction in purchases, according to the first ever independent analysis.
The Make America Healthy Again movement has generated a lot of discussion about public health. But the language MAHA proponents use to describe health and disease has also raised concerns among the disability and chronic illness communities.
I have been teaching a course on rural criminology since 2014, and most of my students are surprised by the information on violence against women presented to them.
Feelings of shame are linked to reduced quality of life—as shown by the first study to measure shame as a factor influencing the connection between chronic gastrointestinal disorders and mental health.
The authors of a new study have identified distinct personality profiles of people with impulsivity, with different attributes that influence whether a person engages in, or avoids, high-risk drinking. The study suggests that the link between impulsivity and high-risk drinking is more nuanced than commonly understood. The profiles, described in Alcohol: Clinical and Experimental Research, may give health care providers a framework to personalize interventions more effectively to prevent harms related to alcohol use.
After a person survives a heart attack, the heart has a brief window of time in which it can heal if the right circumstances exist. But most of the time, scar tissue forms in the areas that lacked oxygen during the heart attack. This scar tissue impairs heart function, which can worsen into heart failure, reducing quality of life and increasing the risk of early death.
Deep inside the body, a slow-growing cluster of mutated blood cells can form. This cluster, found in 1 in 5 older adults, can raise the risk of leukemia and heart disease, often without warning.
Scientists have long struggled with how to study the gut's vast nervous system—often called the body's "second brain"—without damaging it. Current research methods are invasive and often require complex surgeries that make it difficult to study normal gut function.
Dining under palm trees on a patio at Mar-a-Lago in December, President-elect Donald Trump reassured chief executives at pharmaceutical giants Eli Lilly and Pfizer that anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wouldn't be a radical choice to head the Department of Health and Human Services.
Cesarean delivery is the most common inpatient surgery in the U.S. but it also carries inherent surgical risks, including vascular, visceral, soft tissue, and nerve damage, which can lead to significant maternal health complications and even death.
Have you ever wondered if a bizarre dream was caused by something you ate the night before? If so, you're not alone. We all have strange or unsettling dreams now and then, and when we do, we want to know what might cause them.
When most people think of COVID now, they picture a short illness like a cold—a few days of fever, sore throat or cough before getting better.
Health officials in New Jersey are urging locals to stay up to date with the MMR vaccine and be on alert for symptoms after a NJ Transit rider tested positive for measles.
Researchers found that acoustic emission dose—an acoustic signal from microbubbles—could predict how to adjust ultrasound power and open the blood-brain barrier for delivering drugs in patients with glioblastoma.
Antiseizure medications help the majority of people with focal epilepsy, a common form of the neurological disorder. Yet most will still have episodes for at least a year after their treatment begins, until their doctors can find the right drug and dosage for them, a new study shows.
New research led by investigators at Mass General Brigham suggests a link between a history of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and the risk of developing a malignant brain tumor. By evaluating data from 2000–2024 of more than 75,000 people with a history of mild, moderate or severe TBI, the team found the risk of developing a malignant brain tumor was significantly higher compared to people without a history of TBI.
A team of scientists led by the Institute for Glial Sciences (IGS) at Case Western Reserve University's School of Medicine has discovered a built-in "brake" that controls when key brain cells mature. In multiple sclerosis (MS), this brake appears to stay on too long, leaving the cells unable to repair the damage the disease causes.
Older men are 13 times more likely to die by firearm suicide than women, but a new study by Boston University School of Public Health and the University of California, Los Angeles Luskin School of Public Affairs has found that suicides by gun are increasing rapidly among older women.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex and potentially life-threatening autoimmune disease. Part of the complexity stems from how it can differ from person to person—giving rise to marked heterogeneity in not only manifestations, but also in disease course and treatment response.
