A study led by the EHU's Neuropsychopharmacology group provides new insights into understanding the origins of schizophrenia. The research, led by the EHU lecturer Leyre Urigüen, revealed alterations in the extracellular matrix, the "scaffolding" that supports neurons, and in the synapses, the points of communication between the neurons, thus reinforcing the idea that this is a neurodevelopmental disorder.
A major new analysis is drawing fresh attention to the possible links between gestational diabetes and long-term brain health in both mothers and their children. The review, which combined data from 48 studies conducted over nearly 50 years, suggests that diabetes during pregnancy may have effects that extend well beyond childbirth, influencing memory, learning and mental health.
Research into the impact of artificial or non-nutritive sweeteners (AS/NSS) often focuses on groups like those with diabetes or who are pregnant, but University of Adelaide researchers have released their findings from an under-studied group.
Screening women with dense breasts with both molecular breast imaging (MBI) and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) increased overall invasive cancer detection while modestly increasing the recall rate compared with screening only with DBT, according to a new study published in Radiology.
Mindfulness meditation may help people struggling with concurrent depression and Internet gaming disorder, according to a study published in PNAS Nexus.

Avocado toast with fried cheese as the bread and zucchini noodles in butter-bacon sauce are among the many recipe ideas fueling social media's beloved high-fat, low-carbohydrate ketogenic, or keto diet.

A recent study examined whether higher educational debt among physicians is associated with more hours worked per week and whether both are independently associated with burnout symptoms among early-career family physicians.
Researchers at Duke University have shown that blocking an enzyme involved in iron regulation not only kills multiple myeloma cancer cells, but also increases the effectiveness of current therapies against the disease. Their research was published on September 12 in the journal Blood.
A recent study tested whether a referral order inside the Epic electronic health record (EHR) could help primary care clinicians refer patients to community-based diabetes prevention programs (DPPs), an important public health strategy to reduce incident type 2 diabetes, and whether patients enrolled after referral.
Scientists from the University of Oslo (UiO), Akershus University Hospital (Ahus), and international partners have released a new expert opinion in Nature Aging. The article brings together more than 25 researchers from around the world, including clinicians and internationally recognized leaders in the biology of aging and metabolism, particularly in the study of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺).
Fear of pain can deter some patients from choosing intrauterine devices (IUDs). In a study appearing in The Annals of Family Medicine, researchers investigated whether intrauterine device (IUD) insertion guided by ultrasound reduces procedure time and pain compared to conventional methods.
WHO has released a new landscape analysis that exposes critical gaps in global research and development (R&D) efforts related to cancer. The report reveals that despite rapid advancements in clinical research, investment and innovation are often misaligned with the greatest public health needs—leaving many of the world's most vulnerable populations behind.
Routine blood samples, such as those taken daily at any hospital and tracked over time, could help predict the severity of an injury and even provide insights into mortality after spinal cord damage, according to a recent University of Waterloo study.
Korean researchers have uncovered compelling evidence that oral bacteria, once colonized in the gut, can affect neurons in the brain and potentially trigger Parkinson's disease.
