The mitral valve controls blood flow between the heart's left atrium and ventricle. When structural changes affect the atrium or valve, it may not close fully—causing blood to leak backwards, a condition known as atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR). Common in frail or elderly patients, AFMR often leads to heart failure, and standard surgery is typically too risky due to other health issues.
Children whose mothers had diabetes in pregnancy—gestational and pre-existing—do not have an increased risk of developmental vulnerability or lower educational outcomes, a new University of Melbourne study has found.
A study published in Cell Reports Medicine reports a scalable, data-driven computational framework for designing combinatorial immunotherapies, offering hope for patients with poor responses to current immunotherapies.
Scientists from CSIRO, Australia's national science agency, have developed a world-first method to teach artificial intelligence (AI) how to write more accurate chest X-ray reports by giving it the same information doctors use in real life.
Connecticut is now participating in a new federal program aimed at expanding treatment access for patients with sickle cell disease who are insured through Medicaid.
A new study conducted across five U.K. air ambulance services has revealed significant variation in calcium levels among trauma patients receiving pre-hospital blood transfusions—highlighting a critical opportunity to provide more tailored care for patients.
At the Two Spirit Conference in northern Nevada in June, Native Americans gathered in support of the LGBTQ+ community amid federal and state rollbacks of transgender protections and gender-affirming health care.
When the human body overheats, the consequences can be deadly. Heat stroke, heart attacks, kidney failure, and worsening of existing conditions like cardiovascular and respiratory diseases are just some of the ways extreme heat can push the body past its limits.
It is already well known that when a mother experiences inflammation during pregnancy, her child is more likely to develop allergic diseases. Recently, a KAIST research team became the first in the world to discover that inflammation within the placenta affects the fetus's immune system, leading to the child exhibiting excessive allergic reactions after birth.
The Trump administration is escalating its push against what has become a key part of the way states, localities and communities respond to the overdose epidemic: harm reduction.
Needless fear of hair loss and brittle, discolored nails caused by cancer treatment might lead many patients to avoid or delay life-saving treatment, a new pilot study says.
The new toolkit is designed to support the implementation and scale-up of hepatitis B and C interventions in prisons across Europe. It also reinforces the principle of "equivalence of care," ensuring that people in prison receive health care comparable to that available in the community.
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have identified a promising nonpharmaceutical treatment that rejuvenates aging brain cells and clears away the buildup of harmful proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease.
The eye of the apple snail is unusually similar to a human eye—but, unlike human eyes, it can regrow itself if injured or even amputated. New research from the Stowers Institute for Medical Research has established the apple snail as a novel research organism to study eye regeneration, with the potential to better understand and find treatments for eye conditions in humans like macular degeneration.
Children and young adults who spend excessive hours glued to screens and electronic devices may have higher risks of cardiometabolic diseases, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and insulin resistance, according to new research published today in the Journal of the American Heart Association.
Users of the NHS Active 10 app, designed to encourage people to become more active, immediately increased their amount of brisk and non-brisk walking upon using the app, according to researchers from the University of Cambridge.
Researchers from the Broad Institute and Mass General Brigham have shown that a low-oxygen environment—similar to the thin air found at Mount Everest base camp—can protect the brain and restore movement in mice with Parkinson's-like disease.
Flinders University and Flinders Medical Center researchers have found a critical link between having two types of polyps, common growths found in the bowel, and an increased risk of developing cancer, according to a new study published in Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology (CGH) titled "Risk of advanced colorectal neoplasia at follow-up colonoscopy after synchronous adenoma and clinically significant serrated polyp."
Sleep apnea, or difficulty breathing at night, is common among children with Down syndrome—affecting up to 80% compared to just 5% of the general pediatric population. Sleep apnea can negatively impact any child's ability to function and learn, but for children with Down syndrome who have neurocognitive differences, good sleep may be even more crucial to their development.
