Trump administration officials, looking at the possible impact of large insurance premium increases for millions of next year's Obamacare customers, want more people to consider plans with less generous benefits and high deductibles.
The INTREPID study group, a team of 49 researchers from 30 academic and medical institutions, reports on sustained five-year benefits from subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease. They find improved motor function and daily living activities with a 28% reduction in anti-Parkinson's medication.
A Swansea University study has uncovered the intense emotional and operational strain experienced by emergency ambulance staff across the UK during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The brain divides vision between its two hemispheres—what's on your left is processed by your right hemisphere and vice versa—but your experience with every bike or bird that you see zipping by is seamless. A new study by neuroscientists at The Picower Institute for Learning and Memory at MIT reveals how the brain handles the transition.
Jake Margo Jr. stood in the triage room at Starr County Memorial Hospital explaining why a person with persistent fever who could be treated with over-the-counter medication didn't need to be admitted to the emergency room.
Pea-sized brains grown in a lab have for the first time revealed the unique way neurons might misfire due to schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, psychiatric ailments that affect millions of people worldwide but are difficult to diagnose because of the lack of understanding of their molecular basis.
Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne illness in the United States, a potentially disabling infection caused by bacteria transmitted through the bite of an infected tick to people and pets.
Fields of plastic, or fake turf, are spreading across the Golden State from San Diego to Del Norte counties.
Every year, thousands of people with mental health conditions in the U.K. are missing out on cutting-edge treatments because the NHS is losing ground to private companies in clinical research, a new study from The University of Manchester has warned.
Researchers led by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute report that menopausal hormone therapy relieved vasomotor symptoms without raising cardiovascular risk in younger women, but increased risk was evident in women aged 70 years and older.

Scientists analyzed the distribution of three potentially harmful tick species in Illinois, identifying regions of the state with higher numbers of these ticks and, therefore, at greater risk of infection with multiple tick-borne diseases.
New research from Edith Cowan University (ECU) published in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism has found evidence that cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and kale could help with the management of blood sugar levels, particularly for people at risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD).
Science and artificial intelligence combined at the Medical University of South Carolina in a study that could lead to personalized repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, or rTMS, for smokers who want to quit.
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has had a busy few months. He fired the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, purged the agency's vaccine advisory committee, and included among the group's new members appointees who espouse anti-vaccine views.
The human brain can concurrently support a wide range of advanced mental functions, including attention, memory and the processing of sensory stimuli. While past neuroscience studies have gathered valuable insight into the neural underpinnings of each of these processes, the mechanisms that ensure that they are performed efficiently and in a timely fashion have not yet been fully elucidated.
Cats, dust mites, mold, trees; for people with allergies, even a brief whiff of the airborne allergens these organisms produce can lead to swollen eyes, itchy skin and impaired breathing.
Many people experience one or more types of psychological distress, including depression, anxiety, psychosocial stress or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), after a heart attack, which can affect their physical recovery and long-term heart health, according to a new American Heart Association scientific statement, published in Circulation.
