In a clinical pilot study, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) have validated a novel, noninvasive method for measuring central venous pressure (CVP) using quantitative compression ultrasound (QCU). This study, published in BME Frontiers, marks a significant advancement in cardiovascular diagnostics, offering a promising alternative to traditional invasive catheterization and visual inspection methods.
Some people spring into action at dawn, while others prefer a slower start to their day. Whether you rise with a grin or a groan, scientists say your internal clock—known as the circadian rhythm—might influence that behavior and much more.
Recognizing that some people facing mental health issues are not turning to traditional providers for assistance, a Temple University associate professor has examined how artificial intelligence could be leveraged to help improve access to health care resources.
Millions of people across the world still lack access to basic eye care such as glasses, according to a new study led by Professor Rupert Bourne of Anglia Ruskin University (ARU).
Bone is a common site for metastasis of solid cancers, but histological and molecular features of bone metastases are not well understood. In a new study published in Cell Genomics, researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center use RNA sequencing to characterize bone metastases from eight cancer types. The findings identify three distinct immune ecosystem archetypes.
Dr. Simrit Parmar, an associate professor in the College of Medicine at Texas A&M University and founder of the clinical-stage biotech company Cellenkos Inc. in Houston, has invented a new cell therapy that shows strong promise for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), aplastic anemia and other devastating diseases.
The combination of enzalutamide with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) significantly increases the chance of five-year survival for men with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, according to a five-year follow-up of the global ARCHES study led by the Duke Cancer Institute.
Semaglutide belongs to a group of drugs called GLP-1R agonists and has been shown to effectively reduce food intake and body weight. The drug is already well established as part of the treatment for obesity and type 2 diabetes, but can cause side effects such as nausea and muscle loss.

There is no highly effective vaccine against tuberculosis (TB), which remains an infection of global concern. Charles Kyriakos Vorkas, MD, an infectious diseases physician-scientist at the Renaissance School of Medicine (RSOM) at Stony Brook University, and colleagues identified a novel population of immune cells that could serve as an alternative target for TB vaccines and immune-directed therapy. Their findings are detailed in a paper published in Scientific Reports.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage, the third most common type of stroke, accounting for 5–10% of all cases, could be drastically reduced worldwide through health and lifestyle changes, according to NZ, Australian and international researchers.
The human genome is broadly classified into the genome residing in the cell nucleus (nuclear DNA) and the genome residing in the mitochondria (mitochondrial DNA: mtDNA). Mitochondria are cell organelles that produce energy essential for life activities through oxidative phosphorylation (mitochondrial respiration), and mtDNA encodes a set of genes required for mitochondrial respiration.
A potent opioid detected in Canberra for the first time in September 2024 carries a high risk of overdose, warn chemists from the Australian National University (ANU) and drug checking service CanTEST.
Over the past decade, much research has focused on the connection between skeletal muscle health and cognitive disorders. Scientists have found that sarcopenia, a geriatric syndrome characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, appears to be strongly associated with an elevated risk of dementia. The complex relationship between our muscles and brain health represents a promising frontier in preventive medicine, particularly as global populations continue to age.
Researchers from the University of Melbourne and Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI) have developed a blood test capable of rapidly diagnosing rare genetic diseases in babies and children, eliminating the need for costly and invasive procedures and giving families earlier access to treatment.
Most humans can recall specific events and past experiences for long periods of time. This capability, referred to as episodic memory, is known to be in great part supported by the activity of neurons in the hippocampus and medial temporal lobe.
