Malnutrition is a leading cause of death in children under age 5, and nearly 150 million children globally under this age have stunted growth from lack of nutrition. Although an inadequate diet is a major contributor, researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found over a decade ago that dysfunctional communities of gut microbes play an important role in triggering malnutrition.
Manatee could become the second county in Florida to ban kratom and other designer drugs.
The International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) has issued a landmark Position Paper identifying critical global barriers to osteoporosis care and calling for urgent change to improve access to effective fracture prevention strategies. The work is published in the journal Osteoporosis International.
Extensive research over the years continues to pinpoint the Mediterranean diet as one of the best for the heart. Why? It helps reduce chronic inflammation in the body.
In a study published in Science, researchers found that the defense protein "Resistin like molecule gamma" (Relmy), produced by neutrophils, punches holes into heart cells after a heart attack. This promotes dangerous, fast, and irregular heart rhythm and cell death in the heart.
When Sally Nix found out that her health insurance company wouldn't pay for an expensive, doctor-recommended treatment to ease her neurological pain, she prepared for battle.
The Australian government announced last week there's a new vaccine for pneumococcal disease on the National Immunization Program for all children.
Neurological diseases affect millions worldwide, and the need for long-term patient-friendly treatments has never been greater. While needle-based injections are the standard for most therapies, regular drug injections can often be painful and inconvenient.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex condition marked by a gradual decline in kidney function, which can ultimately progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Globally, the prevalence of CKD ranges from 8–16%, with about 5–10% of those diagnosed eventually reaching ESRD, making it a major public health challenge.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrially altered products—like soda, snacks and processed meats—packed with additives and stripped of nutrients. Hundreds of new ingredients, previously unknown to the human body, now make up nearly 60% of the average adult's diet and almost 70% of children's diets in the United States.
Understanding the brain's functional architecture is a fundamental challenge in neuroscience. The connections between neurons ultimately dictate how information is processed, transmitted, stored, and retrieved, thus forming the basis of our cognitive functions. Scientists often study neuronal signaling by recording the brief electrical pulses they generate over time, often referred to as "spike trains."
A special MRI technique that detects iron levels in different regions of the brain can predict the onset of mild cognitive impairment and cognitive decline in cognitively unimpaired older adults, potentially creating a pathway to earlier interventions, according to a study published in Radiology.
Emphysema detected on baseline low-dose chest CT (LDCT) in the lung cancer screening cohort of more than 9,000 asymptomatic adults was associated with death from all causes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and cardiovascular disease within a 25-year follow-up period in a new study published in Radiology.
A new Emory University study, led by the Emory ALS Center and the Center for Neurodegenerative Disease at Emory's Goizueta Brain Health Institute, sheds light on why a once-promising experimental medication for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) failed to help patients, despite successfully reaching its intended target in the central nervous system (CNS)—the brain and spinal cord.
We all know the benefits of a healthy diet. But new research from the University of South Australia shows that eating nutritious food is about far more than ticking off the five food groups—it can also significantly reduce chronic pain.
Researchers identified almost two dozen previously unknown genetic variants linked to type 2 diabetes by including participants' hormone levels in their analysis. Yan V. Sun of Emory University, U.S., and colleagues report these findings in the open-access journal PLOS Genetics.
Preliminary findings from a new clinical trial show no adverse neurodevelopmental effects after brief inhaled anesthesia and surgery in infants and young children, reports Anesthesiology.
The University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center's Graham Warren, M.D., Ph.D., and international collaborators have led a groundbreaking study that could change the way lung cancer is diagnosed and treated.
Implementing changes to indoor environments, such as cooler bedrooms at night and increasing the amount of bright light during the day, could significantly improve sleep for people living with dementia, according to a study led by the University of Surrey.
