New research has uncovered a novel mechanism that may help explain why some people with cancer respond remarkably well to immunotherapy while others don't.
Researchers from the University of California San Diego have found that a novel treatment called regulation of cues combined with behavioral weight loss (ROC+BWL) was more effective than standard cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in reducing binge-eating among veterans with overweight or obesity. The benefits of the new treatment were sustained even six months after treatment ended, particularly for veterans with Binge-Eating Disorder (BED).
When given nutritionally matched diets, participants lost twice as much weight eating minimally processed foods compared to ultra-processed foods, suggesting that cutting down on processing could help to sustain a healthy weight long term, finds a new clinical trial led by researchers at UCL and UCLH.
Arousal—how alert or excited one feels—is a basic part of emotions, along with whether those emotions are positive or negative. Scientists still don't fully understand how the brain creates these feelings of arousal, or if the brain uses the same or different systems for emotional arousal compared to states such as being awake or having a bodily reaction.
Falls pose a significant risk to older adults, often resulting in injuries that lead to other health problems, decreased independence, and a lower quality of life. They also pose a considerable burden on the health care system—fall-related injuries are associated with an increased use of services, making them among the most expensive medical conditions to treat.
She's 6 years old, lives in Brisbane and might just be one of the best resilience coaches on television.
Vaccination against shingles increased among adults age 50 and older in the U.S. during the COVID-19 pandemic, but not equally across all population groups. That's the key finding from a new study my colleagues and I published in the journal Vaccine.
Sauna bathing is booming in Australia. Once considered a luxury experience or only a Nordic tradition, saunas are now part of the everyday for many Australians. They're commonly found in gyms, hotels, leisure centers, and even in homes.
McGill University researchers have developed and are licensing a digital tool to help safely reduce patients' use of medications that may be unnecessary or even harmful to them.
The more unpredictable an environment is for children, the more likely they are to exhibit mental and physical health issues when they hit their teenage and early adulthood years, according to new University of Georgia research.
At a typical pediatric visit, parents and clinicians examine where a child falls on growth charts that compare their height and weight to national averages.
Despite an uptick in recent cases, the number of COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths is just about at new lows, according to the most recent data.
While overall dental health among young children in the U.S. has improved over the last two decades, adolescents have not experienced the same gains. A recent study in Western New York led by Rubelisa Oliveira, DDS, assistant professor at the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine, is uncovering the reasons why.
Hormones affect human physical functions, behavior and mental well-being, with testosterone, a primary androgen hormone, playing a vital role in shaping male social cognition and behavior. A research team of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) has conducted interdisciplinary research to uncover the neurocognitive correlates of testosterone in the brain function of young men, and their impact on social behavior. The findings provide valuable insights into potential applications of testosterone therapy in clinical and mental health care.
Evidence suggests as many as 40% of adults with cancer turn to marijuana—more properly known as cannabis—to manage symptoms like pain, nausea and anxiety, and many want guidance from their physicians. Yet a new national study led by investigators at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) finds that most oncologists-in-training, or fellows, feel underprepared to unprepared to manage this increasingly common aspect of their patients' care.
A Monash University-led study into commercially available foods for infants and young children has found them to be promoted as low-cost and "healthy," despite often not conforming to nutritional guidelines.
Harvard Medical School investigators have discovered that U.S. surgeons have a cancer mortality rate more than two times that of nonsurgeon physicians and around 20% higher than most non-physician workers. While still maintaining overall lower than non-physician death rates, the unexpectedly high cancer rates might shed light on work-related risks.
As summer temperatures soar and school sports programs ramp up conditioning practices, heat-related illnesses like dehydration, heat exhaustion, and even heat stroke become serious concerns—especially for student-athletes. According to Ian Klein, an exercise physiologist and associate professor at OHIO, understanding how the body reacts to extreme heat and how to prepare for it is critical to preventing dangerous health outcomes.
Older Coloradans have mostly recovered from a pandemic-era increase in death rates, but middle-aged people continue to die younger than expected, mostly from overdoses.
