Although the respiratory system is one of the main entry points for microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) from the air into the body, little is known about the effects of these tiny particles on the lungs. Researchers at MedUni Vienna have now demonstrated for the first time that MNPs can trigger malignant changes in lung cells that are associated with the development of cancer. The findings are published in the Journal of Hazardous Materials and once again underline the urgent need for action to reduce plastic waste.
A cancer diagnosis is a life-changing event for patients that can cause short- and long-term mental health concerns as they shift to living within a new timeline driven by weeks or months between medical follow-up appointments.
Every year in the U.S., about 4,000 people die by drowning. Children, men and nonwhite people are at the highest risk.
For many people who have a serious mental illness or are recovering from one, trying to get or keep a job may be overwhelming and exhausting.
New survey data from the Orlando Health Spine Center reveals a significant difference among Americans on how to manage neck and back pain. Respondents were split between relying on rest and reduced activity (44%), turning to over-the-counter pain relievers (42%), and hot/cold therapies (29%)—an uncertainty that may be discouraging some from seeking medical guidance.
A study presented at the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery's (SNIS) 22nd Annual Meeting found that almost half of gunshot wound injuries to the brain in children and young adults include penetrating cerebrovascular injuries (PCVIs).
In a remarkable achievement that is already impacting how we detect and diagnose disease, UK Biobank has completed the world's largest whole body imaging project, scanning the brains, hearts, abdomens, blood vessels, bones and joints of 100,000 volunteers. These scans, on this scale, show us what is happening in people's bodies as they age so we can understand how, why and when we get sick.
A novel AI-powered retina tracker can analyze retinal images with near-perfect accuracy in under one second, according to a study presented at ENDO 2025, the Endocrine Society's annual meeting in San Francisco, Calif.
Singapore researchers have discovered that a new cancer drug, originally developed at A*STAR Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (A*STAR IMCB), shows potential as a new treatment approach for two leading causes of blindness worldwide.
In a study published in Cell on July 10, researchers reported the first comprehensive study of whole-brain projectomes of the macaque prefrontal cortex (PFC) at the single-neuron level and revealed the organization of macaque PFC connectivity.
Adrenal hormone function was restored in animal studies, potentially paving the way for a functional cure for primary adrenal insufficiency in humans, according to research presented by Aspect Biosystems at ENDO 2025, the Endocrine Society's annual meeting in San Francisco, Calif.
Stroke is said to be the second leading cause of death worldwide after heart disease. To prevent the death of neurons in the brain, a research group led by Osaka Metropolitan University Associate Professor Hidemitsu Nakajima of the Graduate School of Veterinary Science has developed a drug that inhibits a protein involved in cell death.
