The World Health Organization on Thursday said nearly 100,000 cholera cases had been reported in Sudan since July last year, as it warned of more hunger, displacement and disease to come.
New research to be presented at this year's Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Vienna, Austria (15-19 September) shows that among people recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and no previous cardiovascular disease, a clear association exists between a person's self-reported physical activity and their risk of all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiac events (MACE), which includes heart attacks and strokes.
For some patients with gastrointestinal (GI) cancers like colorectal and pancreatic cancer, chemotherapy can cause severe, sometimes life-threatening side effects in those who carry certain genetic variants that can impact how their bodies process the drugs used to treat their disease.

Hunger exists on a spectrum. On the one end is food insecurity, where people are forced to adjust to fewer meals. As food becomes scarce, the body consumes its own reserves. The journey from hunger to starvation starts with a drop in energy levels, then the body breaks down fat, then muscle. Eventually, critical organs begin to fail.
Many major cancers, including those of the lung, breast and prostate gland, spread to the bones as they progress. These bone metastases are often debilitating, even deadly. They are also notoriously resistant to all kinds of treatment, including immunotherapy.

Imagine hammering a nail into a wall: Your dominant hand swings the hammer while the other holds the nail steady. In a new theory, Cornell psychology scholars propose that everyday tasks like this are responsible for a fundamental aspect of perception in the brain: why one side is specialized to process high-frequency visual information, and the other low frequencies.
Nearly a third of cancer-related deaths are caused by cachexia, a currently incurable metabolic syndrome that involves substantial weight loss, including depletion of muscle mass and body fat. Researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered that one of the reasons for this loss is disrupted communication between the brain and the liver.
