New research suggests that psychological richness—a life of perspective-changing experiences—may matter just as much as happiness or meaning.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal imbalance that affects ovaries, periods and fertility in about one in 10 Canadian women. Different from ovarian cysts, PCOS is associated with infertility, pregnancy complications, heart disease and a general decreased quality of life, and yet fewer than half of those affected even know they have it.
The number of mpox cases in Guinea since an outbreak was first detected has passed 200, health officials told AFP Friday, with several nearby countries witnessing recent increases in infections.
Long ambulance response times, costly and unreliable non-emergency transportation, and insufficient insurance coverage for travel-related health care expenses are among the key findings of a new report released by the University of Hawaiʻi Rural Health Research and Policy Center (UH RHRPC).
Our beliefs about health often unconsciously shape the decisions we make daily. However, not all these beliefs are based on solid scientific foundations. Some, although well-intentioned, are illusory beliefs about health, i.e., misconceptions that can lead us away from effective practices and towards choices that can harm our health.
Pain is an important physiological response in living organisms. While physical pain is an outcome of tissue damage, pain can manifest as diverse unpleasant sensory and emotional experiences.
A study led by Dr. Li Chuanyun from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has revealed how recently evolved human-specific genes—critical for brain development and cognitive abilities—can be hijacked by cancer to drive tumor growth.
Each morning, your brain embarks on a remarkable series of events: it transitions from being asleep, potentially in an alternate reality, to waking up. Within a short time, you regain waking consciousness, reorient yourself and reconnect with your surroundings, becoming ready to interact with the world again. But how does your brain accomplish this transition so safely and efficiently?
Few people like being told what to do and this includes people with low back pain. New research has found patients want to be empowered with the knowledge to make informed choices, not advice.
Most children seeking emergency department (ED) care due to vomiting are discharged home. Although they usually feel better when they leave the ED, the vomiting recurs in nearly one-third of children.
A promising new COVID-19 vaccine candidate developed by researchers at the Centenary Institute and the University of Sydney has shown strong potential to protect against both current and emerging coronavirus variants. By targeting features shared by a range of coronaviruses, the vaccine is designed to offer broader and longer-lasting protection as the virus continues to evolve.
Two junior research groups at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have developed a drug complex that kills cancer cells in such a clever manner that they raise a red flag as they die. They signal to the immune system that something is seriously wrong with this type of cell.
Teeth may seem like static fixtures, but a new collaboration between engineers and clinicians is proving just how dynamic, informative and medically significant our teeth can be.
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is the clinical term for high blood pressure in the lungs caused by blockages, such as clots, in the blood vessels. Although CTEPH therapies have improved over recent decades, trends in patient prognosis remain unclear.
In light of reports from the White House that President Donald J. Trump has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), the American Heart Association is sharing important information on the condition and its association with cardiovascular risk factors, disease and increased risk of death.
Caffeine, which is present in various foods and beverages, is widely known to improve exercise performance. However, these ergogenic effects may not be observed under hot conditions.
In a first of its kind randomized controlled trial, researchers found delivering a problem-solving digital mental health intervention to young Ukrainian refugees significantly reduced symptoms of depression and anxiety.
In Japan, people spend approximately seven hours sitting per day, which is the longest sitting time in the world. This sedentary behavior (i.e., repeated bouts of prolonged sitting) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Recently, a research group has reported that prolonged sitting under constant skin temperature conditions can impair cutaneous vasodilation function, and repeated local heating and cooling do not mitigate this impairment.
Colorado's first human cases of West Nile virus this year were confirmed in two people who contracted the disease in Adams County, public health officials said on July 17.
