What you eat after a colon cancer diagnosis could do more than affect your energy or digestion—it might impact your chance of survival.
Adolescence is a time of intense emotional and social transformation when many young people face significant psychological challenges, including social isolation and self-harm—the practice of intentionally harming oneself without suicidal intent. It is estimated that one in seven adolescents suffers from a mental illness, with around half of these cases beginning before the age of 14. In addition, it is estimated that 14% of adolescents have self-harmed at least once in their lives, using this behavior as an attempt to cope with internal distress, such as depression, anxiety, or trauma.
Researchers at the Helmholtz Munich and the Ludwig-Maximilians-University (LMU) Munich have investigated a possible association between exposure to road traffic noise and the risk of metabolic diseases. Therefore, they used imaging data from MRI examinations of over 11,000 German National Cohort (NAKO) participants and combined this with road traffic noise data from Germany.
Many people who have suffered a heart attack subsequently develop life-threatening complications like ventricular fibrillation. Now an international research team from the University of Freiburg's Faculty of Medicine and Dalhousie University Halifax in Canada have found out why this is the case.
4 June 2025, Cairo, Egypt – The World Health Organization’s Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean launched a new strategy to reduce the burden of cholera across the Region by 2028. The strategy sets out a blueprint for a scaled-up multisectoral approach to tackle the root causes of cholera spread and prevent future outbreaks, aiming to significantly reduce cholera-related morbidity and deaths. The Cholera Preparedness and Response Strategy for the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region for 2025-2028 comes at a critical time amid a surge in cases of suspected cholera and acute watery diarrhea in several countries across the Region. So far in 2025, the regional cholera burden accounts for almost 55% of all cholera cases and deaths globally. “Many countries in our Region have become a breeding ground for cholera due to a dangerous mix of protracted conflict, weak health systems, poverty, displacement, poor water, sanitation, and hygiene systems, low public awareness, and extreme climatic shocks. To protect those most at risk, especially children and displaced populations, and to safeguard public health more broadly, we must address these underlying drivers with sustained commitment and coordinated, collective action,” says Dr Hanan Balkhy, WHO Regional Director for the Eastern Mediterranean. Sudan is experiencing one of the most severe outbreaks in recent history, with 65,291 cases and 1,721 deaths reported across 12 states as of 26 May 2025; Khartoum State alone Read more...

Throughout the course of their lives, humans can establish meaningful social connections with others, empathizing with them and sharing their experiences. People's ability to manage, perceive and understand the emotions experienced by both themselves and others is broadly referred to as emotional intelligence (EI).

Virginia Tech researchers are developing more precise treatments for pediatric brain cancer using a new class of therapies that target cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue.
7 June 2025, Cairo, Egypt – On World Food Safety Day 2025, the World Health Organization (WHO) is highlighting the role of scientific research and innovation in ensuring food safety. Scientists contribute to understanding the risks to human health from known, emerging and anticipated food contaminants in many ways. They conduct rigorous research to generate reliable evidence which helps policy-makers, food businesses and consumers make informed and safe decisions. The burden of foodborne diseases is significant yet largely preventable. Foodborne diseases affect individuals across all age groups, but particularly children under 5 and the vulnerable. The Eastern Mediterranean Region is at a critical point in efforts to ensure that all individuals have access to safe and nutritious food supplies. The situation is made even more urgent by fast-evolving climate change and environmental pollution, the surge in urbanization, population growth and shifts in lifestyle and consumption patterns. These factors are increasing human exposure to harmful chemical compounds, antimicrobial residues and drug-resistant foodborne pathogens. The health implications and associated economic costs of foodborne diseases are substantial. They include expenses related to medical treatment, child development, lost productivity, export restrictions and market loss. The World Health Assembly – WHA73.5 (2020) "Strengthening efforts on food safety" – has mandated WHO to update estimates of the global foodborne disease burden. By offering detailed insights into the incidence, mortality and disease burden expressed in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and providing a comprehensive overview of the impact of these foodborne diseases, WHO plays a crucial role in guiding public Read more...
A study led by researchers at Stanford Medicine shows that differences in blood sugar responses to certain carbohydrates depend on details of an individual's metabolic health status.
According to the American Cancer Society, survivors of childhood cancer can face health problems later in their adult life. Many boys who undergo cancer treatment before puberty can lose the ability to produce sperm as chemotherapy or radiation therapy can damage their reproductive cells.
Despite growing concerns about data privacy, new research from the University of South Australia shows that most people are happy to hand over their health information if it could help improve their care.

New research published in Allergy indicates that certain environmental exposures may affect a child's risk of developing atopic eczema, a condition characterized by dry, itchy, and inflamed skin.
03 June 2025 This week marks one year since dozens of personnel from the United Nations, non-governmental and civil society organisations, and diplomatic missions were arbitrarily detained by the Houthi de facto authorities in northern Yemen. Others have been detained since as far back as 2021. Today, we reiterate our urgent demand for their immediate and unconditional release. As of today, 23 UN and five international non-governmental organisations (INGOs) personnel remain arbitrarily detained. Tragically, one UN staff member and another from Save the Children have died in detention. Others have lost loved ones while being held, denied the chance to attend their funerals or say goodbye. Our arbitrarily detained colleagues have spent at least 365 days and for some, over 1000 days – isolated from their families, children, husbands, and wives, in flagrant breach of international law. The toll of this detention is also weighing heavily on their families, who continue to endure the unbearable pain of absence and uncertainty as they face another Eid without their loved one. Nothing can justify their ordeal. They were doing their jobs, helping people in desperate need: people without food, shelter, or adequate healthcare. Yemen remains one of the world's worst humanitarian crises, with over 19 million people in need of humanitarian assistance, many of whom rely on it for survival. A safe and enabling operating environment for humanitarian operations, including the release of detained personnel, is essential to maintaining and restoring assistance to those in need.. Humanitarian workers should never be targeted or detained Read more...
