Procuring lifesaving drugs is a daunting challenge in many low- and middle-income countries. Essential treatments are often neither available nor affordable in these nations, even decades after the drugs entered the market.
The higher a person's body mass index (BMI), the higher their risk for complications after bariatric surgery, especially those with BMI of 50 or more, according to a new study presented today at the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting.
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, information began to trickle in about who was at higher risk of a dangerous outcome from infection: men, those over 65, smokers, those with obesity. It turns out these seemingly unrelated categories of people have one thing in common: a signature of immune dysregulation.
When you lose your health insurance or switch to a plan that skimps on preventive care, something critical breaks.
A new study from The University of Texas at Arlington reveals that people who live in rural areas are more likely to have chronic pain than those in urban settings. They're also more likely to go from having no pain or occasional pain to chronic pain. The findings may help explain higher opioid prescription rates in rural communities and could guide future research into the root causes of this disparity.
A simple ultrasound of a patient's thigh or shoulder muscle may detect insulin resistance before it progresses to type 2 diabetes or even prediabetes.
Black patients are more likely to experience minor complications after metabolic and bariatric surgery than white patients, according to a new study presented today at the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting.
People who have metabolic and bariatric surgery are significantly less likely to develop psychiatric disorders compared to those who take weekly injections of GLP-1 anti-obesity medications, according to a new study presented today at the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting. Over a five-year period, the risk of developing cognitive deficits was 54% lower and 18% and 17% lower for anxiety disorders and substance use disorders, respectively.
New research published today shows that female teenagers—especially those from lower-socioeconomic backgrounds—and gender-diverse adolescents are significantly more likely to experience worsening mental health symptoms over their high school years.
Researchers at The University of Texas at Arlington have developed a new computational tool that helps scientists pinpoint proteins known as transcriptional regulators that control how genes turn on and off.
Mice are prey animals, and while they must be able to move around looking for food, it is just as important that they can get to safety quickly—two opposite needs that are equally vital to their survival.
Researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) reported long-term clinical outcomes for the largest single center cohort of individuals who underwent complex reconstructive surgery for hypoplastic left heart syndrome as newborns. In this cohort, more than 30% survived without a transplant to at least 35 years of age.
Sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass were associated with about five-times more weight loss than weekly injections of GLP-1 receptor agonists semaglutide or tirzepatide, at the end of two years, according to a new head-to-head real-world study presented today at the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting.
A set of genes that could be used to help doctors predict which children will respond well to treatment for juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) has been identified by researchers at UCL and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children (GOSH), who are part of the CLUSTER Consortium.
Bone growth occurs through the proliferation of specialized cells of the cartilage tissue, known as chondrocytes, on either end of a bone. This process requires the synthesis of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the bone growth plates.
A vaccine developed by University of Georgia researchers successfully protects against and treats vaginal yeast infections in mice, according to a newly published study in npj Vaccines.
A new McGill University-led study suggests that disrupting the body's internal clock during adolescence can alter how the brain responds to an in-utero risk factor linked to certain brain disorders.
In a world-first breakthrough, researchers have used an epilepsy-like disease model in a laboratory dish and showed that improved information processing and neural function can be achieved using a medication designed specifically to treat the disease.
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear a case next term involving a New Jersey nonprofit that runs anti-abortion pregnancy centers and is fighting a state investigation.
