Reddit's popularity as a tool for self-managing inflammatory bowel disease highlights opportunities for improvements in clinical care, according to a paper published in Journal of Medical Internet Research.
A new study published in the European Journal of Heart Failure reveals that the speed of lymph flow in the legs may determine how well patients respond to diuretics, a key therapy for acute heart failure (AHF).
Keloids are raised, overgrown scars that can develop after skin injuries or surgery, often extending beyond the original wound boundaries. For many people, keloids are more than just a cosmetic concern; they often cause distressing symptoms such as chronic pain, itching, and restricted movement. While various treatment options exist, such as surgical removal, steroid injections, and radiation, keloids are notoriously difficult to manage, with recurrence rates reaching as high as 30%.
Researchers at Karolinska Institutet, in collaboration with colleagues in South Africa, have investigated whether tuberculosis can be traced in exhaled air. The results, published in Open Forum Infectious Diseases, show that a new method may help identify people with infectious tuberculosis directly in primary care.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting more than 2.9 million people worldwide. It occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the myelin sheath, the protective insulation around nerve fibers, causing disruption of nerve signals between the brain and body. Symptoms can include numbness, tingling, vision loss, and paralysis.
At 47 years of age, Emi Bossio was feeling good about where she was. She had a successful law practice, two growing children and good health. Then she developed a nagging cough. The diagnosis to come would take her breath away.
When older adults living in nursing homes are prescribed the pain medicine tramadol alongside certain antidepressants, their risk of seizures may go up, according to a study published in Neurology. While this study found a link between using the medications together and an increased risk of seizures, it does not prove one causes the other.
A research team led by Cancer Center at Illinois (CCIL) member Hua Wang has published new research detailing a new mRNA cancer vaccine platform. The study introduces an immune cell homing hydrogel-based platform designed to overcome one of the biggest hurdles in conventional mRNA cancer vaccines: the extremely low efficiency of antigen-encoded mRNAs being processed by the right type of immune cells in the body.
In addition to strengthening the muscles, lungs, and heart, regular physical exercise also strengthens the immune system. This finding comes from a study of older adults with a history of endurance training, which involves prolonged physical activity such as long-distance running, cycling, swimming, rowing, and walking.
Advanced colon cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in young American men and the second highest worldwide. In the majority of these patients, as the cancer advances it metastasizes to the liver. Despite progress in surgical therapies aimed at eradicating the cancer, many of these patients will have tumor recurrence in the liver.
UCLA scientists, together with a team of international collaborators, have identified a promising new treatment strategy that can detect, kill and reprogram aggressive, treatment-resistant tumors like osteosarcomas and glioblastoma.

Mayo Clinic researchers have identified a protein that acts like a traffic controller for DNA, preventing damage during cell division—a discovery that could lead to new cancer therapies, according to a study published in Nature.
Advanced DNA sequencing technologies and a new model of stem cell research have enabled an international team to discover a new type of diabetes in babies.
Raw milk cheese products contained infectious avian influenza virus when made with contaminated raw milk, creating potential health risks for consumers, according to a new study.
A new study offers a glimpse at how direct-to-consumer pharmacy pricing could one day present stiff competition to the private prescription drug insurance model, researchers say.
A multi-institutional study from the Accelerating GBM Therapies Through Serial Biopsies TeamLab, led by investigators from the Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute, found that serially testing tumor samples can help detect when a cancer treatment is activating the immune system in recurrent glioblastoma (GBM), even when traditional imaging measures cannot.
Exercise is good for the body and the mind. A good workout can leave you feeling energized, recharged and ready to take on the rest of the day.
