A key switch for cellular energy balance has been discovered in cells, and it could potentially become the target of new therapies for diseases ranging from Parkinson's to rare disorders caused by defects in mitochondria.
New research investigating health outcomes in NCAA athletes during their first year after leaving college sports found that some health measures were worse than expected, but others actually improved.
Persistent racial differences in flu vaccination uptake are seen across ages and flu seasons, according to a study published in the Oct. 3 issue of Vaccine.
Denied insurance claims are among the biggest challenges facing the U.S. health care system—driving up costs and leaving providers with billions in unpaid bills.
A new multi-institutional study, led by University Hospitals Connor Whole Health, found that adults with newly diagnosed low back pain with or without sciatica who initially received spinal manipulative therapy administered by a chiropractor were significantly less likely to be diagnosed with opioid use disorder over a two-year follow-up compared to those prescribed ibuprofen.
In a study conducted by the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare and the University of Helsinki, parents assessed different types of sleep problems in infants: problems associated with total sleep, the number of night awakenings, problems falling asleep and sleep-association disturbances, which refer to difficulties in resettling and falling asleep without parental help after waking up. Prior research on the link between parent–child bond and sleep is scarce, and non-existent in the case of fathers.
Nearly 100 people aboard Royal Caribbean's Serenade of the Seas contracted norovirus during a two-week voyage from San Diego to Miami, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said.
Researchers at McGill's Centre of Genomics and Policy (CGP) have launched a first-of-its-kind guide to help Canadian health-care providers offer more inclusive, respectful and affirming care to intersex adults.
If you've been to a medical appointment recently, you may have already interacted with AI. As you describe your symptoms to the doctor, they may ask your permission to use an "AI scribe" to convert audio into medical notes in real time.
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have found that people who have switched jobs are more likely to experience symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, and insomnia, based on the results of an internet survey conducted with approximately 20,000 people in Japan.
Trying to document how single brain cells participate in networks that govern behavior is a daunting task. Brain probes called Neuropixels, which feature high-density silicon arrays, have enabled scientists to collect electrophysiological data of this nature from a variety of animals. These include fish, reptiles, rodents and primates, as well as humans.
A team of researchers have discovered a powerful bispecific inhibitor capable of combating all existing human-pathogenic coronaviruses, including those resistant to existing treatments like Paxlovid. This promising inhibitor, named TMP1, offers hope for more effective and resilient treatments against future outbreaks. A patent has been filed for further exploration in clinical applications.
An increasing number of people are dying from drug-related accidental injuries. The rate has risen by nearly 60% within the last five years, according to new study findings.
Pedestrian-motor vehicle accidents are a common cause of injury in both children and adults, accounting for one death every 64 minutes and injuring thousands every year. Two recent analyses reveal that while both adults and children suffer serious injuries in collisions, adults tend to experience more severe outcomes than children. Additionally, mapping the locations of these injuries can pinpoint where accidents occur most frequently, offering valuable insights for targeting prevention efforts effectively.
Facing a cancer diagnosis can be one of the most stressful times for patients and their loved ones. When seeking a surgeon for treatment, providing emotional support and helping patients manage expectations are among the top areas of communication valued by patients, according to a new systematic review.
Depression is known to be associated with physical health challenges, in everything from disrupting sleep to an increased cancer risk. Depression can also affect surgical outcomes and postoperative costs, according to new study findings.
Adults under 50 undergoing colonoscopy were found to have a dramatically higher risk of having colorectal cancer when the procedure was done for rectal bleeding. Researchers found that rectal bleeding increased the odds of a colorectal cancer diagnosis by 8.5 times, underscoring the need to take the symptom seriously even in the absence of a family history in a population who may not otherwise meet screening age criteria.
A new national study reveals that hospitals providing surgical care have closed at a significantly higher rate than new ones have opened, with closures disproportionately concentrated in communities with high levels of poverty and social vulnerability. The study highlights a growing disparity in access to surgical care.
New study findings show that over 40% of drivers who died in motor vehicle collisions tested positive for active delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in their system, with average blood levels far exceeding those considered to cause impairment. The research highlights a significant and persistent public health risk that is unchanged by the legalization of recreational cannabis, the authors said.
