Poverty, low educational level, and household income are associated with lower fecundability and subfertility, according to a study published online Sept. 19 in JAMA Network Open.
Ninety-three percent of patients with a new cancer diagnosis were exposed to at least one type of misinformation about cancer treatments, a UF Health Cancer Center study has found.
From August 2021 to August 2023, only 36.4% of U.S. adults had no cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, according to a September data brief published by the National Center for Health Statistics.
New research from the University of Minnesota Medical School confirms that testing for congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) at birth using the routinely collected dried blood spot (DBS) is a reliable and effective method to identify newborns at risk for long-term developmental challenges. The findings are published in JAMA Network Open.
Preterm infants born before 32 weeks who received more skin-to-skin contact while in the hospital showed stronger brain development in areas tied to emotion and stress regulation than babies who received less skin-to-skin care, according to a study published in Neurology. The study does not prove that skin-to-skin care directly causes stronger brain development, it only shows an association.
Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt researchers have built the first lung-on-a-chip with a working immune system, a breakthrough with the potential to reshape how we study disease, move beyond animal testing, and administer lifesaving therapies. The work is published in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering.
A growing number of U.S. adults—particularly those under 40—are reporting serious challenges with memory, concentration and decision-making, according to a new study published in Neurology.
Reported adherence to safe sleep practices appears to be low among caregivers of infants presenting to the emergency department for low-acuity illness and worsens during and after illness, according to a study published online Sept. 18 in Pediatrics.
A new study involving the German Center for Diabetes Research (DZD) provides strong evidence that sugary drinks affect not only metabolic health, but also mental health—especially in women. This effect is probably mediated by the sensitive microbiome of the intestine.
A collaborative French–Swiss study reveals a previously unknown role for astrocytes in the brain's information processing. Published in the journal Cell, the research shows that these glial cells are capable of integrating signals from several neurons at once—a conceptual shift in our understanding of the brain.
Molecular profiling has transformed cancer care, but 30% of high-risk pediatric cancers do not have actionable therapeutic targets, limiting personalized treatment options and negatively affecting survival outcomes.
There is no question that the moon has a significant influence on Earth. Its gravitational pull affects the planet and moves water masses in the daily rhythm of ebb and flow (tides)—this point is undisputed. More difficult to answer is the question of whether the same gravitational force also affects life on Earth, especially the human organism. The discussion becomes even more complicated when it comes to how the fluctuating brightness of the Earth's satellite between full and new moon affects humans.
Recent restrictions on public policies and health care for transgender people in several countries, including Brazil, threaten to dismantle existing care structures for this population and could lead to setbacks. This warning is contained in an article published in the scientific journal Nature Medicine by a group of Brazilian researchers.
A new study from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign shows, for the first time, that severe flu infection in pregnant mice leads to a breakdown in placental and brain barriers, leading to the accumulation of potentially harmful molecules in the fetal brain.
Breast cancer remains one of the most common cancers worldwide and a leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women. Despite advances in screening and treatment, advanced stages of the disease remain difficult to manage, and researchers continue to search for better ways to understand and reduce risk.
To experience or even contemplate dementia raises some of the most profound questions: What does it mean to be a person? How does someone find meaning in life while facing progressive neurological deterioration? What do health care providers, or residents of a neighborhood, or citizens of aging societies, owe to people living with dementia, and why? And how do shared ideas and values – narratives – that circulate within societies and groups shape the experience of living with dementia, for better or worse?
Scientists at Université de Montréal's affiliated hospital research center (CRCHUM) are testing out a mobile application to help young adults who have a first episode of psychosis to support safer cannabis consumption.
Being racially or ethnically discriminated against may increase the risk of later developing psychotic symptoms, finds a major review of international evidence led by University College London (UCL) researchers.
You're in a bustling café with a friend. The din is making it hard to tune in to the conversation. The scenario might suggest you'd benefit from a hearing aid. On the other hand, new research suggests that speech-perception difficulty might relate to your cognitive ability.
