A study conducted at the Department of Neurology, Inselspital, the University Hospital of Bern, analyzed 4,170 individuals over an observation period of 13,217 person-years. It found that heart rate variability (HRV) during sleep can serve as a powerful early warning sign of future health conditions, including stroke, depression, and cognitive dysfunction.
A new study reveals that when we experience short-term (acute) pain, the brain has a built‑in way to dial down pain signals—like pressing the brakes—to keep them from going into overdrive. But in long‑term (chronic) pain, this braking system fails, and the pain signals just keep firing. This discovery helps explain why some pain goes away while other pain lingers, and it opens the door to new treatments that could stop pain from becoming chronic in the first place.
The Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative (SFARI) has released phenotypic and genetic data from the Autism Inpatient Collection (AIC), a cohort of more than 1,500 youth participants ages 4 to 20 years old who were hospitalized in one of six child psychiatry units in the United States. The AIC aimed to engage these individuals, many of whom meet recently proposed criteria for "profound autism" (autism characterized by intellectual disability or minimal language that requires high levels of supervision and support) as they are substantially underrepresented in datasets derived from outpatient or community settings.
Scientists have long known that the Alzheimer's brain often features abnormal plaques and tangles, and recent studies have highlighted the role that the brain's vascular system plays in disease progression. But for decades, this knowledge has failed to translate into fully effective treatments. The lack of progress is largely due to the fact that, despite landmark findings, the precise pathway of neurodegeneration is still unclear.
Food insecurity is a significant burden among U.S. surgical patients, according to a study published online June 18 in JAMA Surgery.
Dietary patterns influence the development of overactive bladder (OAB), according to a study published online May 12 in Frontiers of Nutrition.
Hypertension is the most common chronic condition among adults aged 85 years and older, with the prevalence higher among women than men, according to a report published in the June Health E-Stats.
A popular crisis support line for LGBTQ+ youth and young adults is shutting down July 17, federal officials confirmed this week.
Scientists from Stanley Manne Children's Research Institute at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago and colleagues identified several proteins from the umbilical cord blood of preterm newborns that signal acute systemic inflammation as an immune response to infection, providing objective and noninvasive means to diagnose early onset sepsis.
New research suggests that a healthy microbiome before chemotherapy could help protect breast cancer patients against heart damage, or cardiotoxicity, as a result of cancer therapy.
Scientists have developed a tool that can predict how bowel cancer adapts to treatment—helping researchers to design new personalized drugs that will keep patients living well for longer.
Premade chicken fettuccine Alfredo meals sold at Walmart and Kroger have been recalled amid a listeria outbreak that sickened 17 people and led to three deaths and one pregnancy loss.
Good sleep is vital for adolescents' physical health, mental well-being, and academic success—yet many don't get enough rest. Now, a new study reveals bedtime screen habits may be to blame.
Two butcher shops in northern France have temporarily closed after a child died from severe food poisoning, said local authorities on Friday.
New research has uncovered immune changes in cancer patients that could help identify which patients are most at risk of dangerous heart complications from cancer drugs, known as immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Researchers from RWJBarnabas Health and Rutgers Cancer Institute, New Jersey's only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, as well as Tufts Medical Center and The University of Manchester, have developed and validated the first individualized risk prediction model for adults diagnosed with early-stage classic Hodgkin's lymphoma.
A new laboratory method developed by researchers at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons may now help physicians more quickly diagnose patients with suspected genetic disorders of the immune system, many who have been trapped in diagnostic limbo for years.
The temperature of our sleeping environment has a major impact on the quality of our sleep, and good sleep is essential for our overall health and well-being. The bedding micro-environment is a key factor in maintaining thermally comfortable conditions for sleep. This includes the ambient temperature, humidity, the heat generated by the human body, and the thermal insulation provided by bedding like quilts, blankets, sheets, etc.
People with ME/CFS (myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome) have significant differences in their blood compared with healthy individuals, a new study reveals, suggesting a path toward more reliable diagnosis of the long-term debilitating illness. The paper is published in the journal EMBO Molecular Medicine.
