A survey commissioned by The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center—Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC—James) focused on Americans' perceptions of testicular cancer. The results suggest more can be done to educate the public about the disease, which affects nearly 10,000 adults in the United States each year, according to the American Cancer Society.
Various reports have linked loneliness to premature death, with some—including the U.S. Surgeon General—suggesting that loneliness is as harmful to one's health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
Parents' visions of family vacation time may not always match what their teens have in mind.
In cancer care, accurate tools for predicting whether a tumor will spread (metastasize) can help patients receive the most appropriate treatments. But existing prediction methods don't always work equally well for everyone. In particular, Black patients with breast or colon cancer often experience worse outcomes than white patients, despite receiving similar care.
New results from a clinical trial reveal that a single dose of psilocybin—a naturally occurring psychedelic compound found in mushrooms—can provide sustained reductions in depression and anxiety in individuals with cancer suffering from major depressive disorder. The findings are published in Cancer.
Homelessness is increasing in pregnant and parenting people in Canada, posing health risks to children. Authors of a commentary in the Canadian Medical Association Journal argue it is a health crisis that needs urgent attention.
Canada can learn from England's successful diabetes prevention program to build its own programs to tackle diabetes prevention across the country, argue the authors in an analysis in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
The most comprehensive analysis of rheumatoid arthritis data to date reveals that demographic changes and uneven health infrastructure have exacerbated the rheumatoid arthritis burden since 1980 and shows global disparities on a granular level.
Women who work nightshifts are more likely to suffer with moderate or severe asthma compared to women who work in the daytime, according to a study published in ERJ Open Research.
A study led by University of Manchester epidemiologists has revealed which opioid painkillers are most likely to be associated with constipation in patients with non-cancer pain.
Want to reduce your risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease?
Health officials want you to think twice before buying one of those brightly colored little bottles often sold at gas stations, convenience stores and smoke shops.
How the brain largely maintains its function when neurons are lost—this is what researchers at the University Medical Center Mainz, the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies (FIAS) and Hebrew University (Jerusalem) have deciphered. They show that neuronal networks in the cerebral cortex reorganize within a short period of time, with other nerve cells taking over the tasks of the lost neurons.
Pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor, has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of patients with resectable locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma whose tumors express PD-L1 [Combined Positive Score (CPS) ≥1] as determined by an FDA-approved test.
The U.S. logged fewer than 30 measles cases this week as Ohio health officials confirmed three outbreaks in two counties were over.
Tooth disorders accounted for an annual average of 1,944,000 emergency department visits during 2020 to 2022, according to a June data brief published by the National Center for Health Statistics.
Cleveland Clinic researchers are working to improve the way we use evolutionary modeling to understand drug resistance. The study, published in Science Advances, uses a new type of evolutionary model called a "fitness seascape" to incorporate a patient's dosage schedule into models that predict whether an infection will develop antibiotic resistance, and has found that inconsistent timing and missing early doses can lead to treatment failure.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic musculoskeletal disease that predominantly affects the axial skeleton. axSpA is an umbrella term that comprises the whole spectrum of patients with and without radiographic sacroiliitis, and joint ASAS/EULAR recommendations were published in 2022.
Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment by mobilizing the immune system to attack tumor cells. Major advances, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (notably against the PD-1 protein), have produced impressive results against certain types of cancer, including melanoma and kidney cancer.
