| Heparin therapy delays Alzheimer's diagnosis by one to two years, offering potential insights into new protective treatments. Large-scale health records show a promising association between the anticoagulant and delayed dementia onset. | |
|
| A new cell therapy, targeting CD7 on leukaemia cells, gives a potentially effective treatment for patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (T-ALL) who have exhausted all standard treatment options. | |
|
| Study demonstrates the potential of using artificial intelligence in oculomics to assess HbA1c levels from fundus images. By analyzing over 6,000 images, the researchers found that diverse datasets are key to minimizing bias and improving model reliability across different populations. | |
|
| Learn how the approval of Tecelra® has marked a milestone for TCR-T cell therapy. | |
|
| Indiana University scientists with expertise in optometry and artificial intelligence are among the first three groups of researchers to receive support from a new program from the National Institutes of Health supporting the emerging field of "oculomics," which uses the eye as a lens on diseases that affect the whole body. | |
|
| Researchers confirmed the presence of replication-competent Oropouche virus in semen, raising concerns about potential sexual transmission following a traveler's infection. | |
|
| High blood pressure (hypertension) causes thickening of the blood vessels and hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis). A study conducted by Brazilian researchers has shown for the first time that a similar phenomenon occurs in the lungs. High blood pressure hardens the bronchi and increases airway resistance, impairing respiratory capacity. | |
|
| The question of what causes complex neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's or multiple sclerosis continues to confound scientists and doctors, with the unknowns standing in the way of early diagnoses and effective treatments. | |
|
| Researchers compare trends in nutrient consumption from dietary sources and supplements in pregnant and non-pregnant women in the United States. | |
|
| Cells are the basic units of life — but when it comes to cells, if you think basic means simple, think again. Cells are complicated, with many millions of biochemical reactions per second seething within their confines. They also tend to be tiny, so it’s not easy to spy on their operations. | |
|
| An analysis of data in the UK Biobank has found that COVID-19 infection may increase the risk of heart attack, stroke and death from any cause for up to three years for people with and without cardiovascular disease, according to new research published today in the American Heart Association's peer-reviewed journal Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology (ATVB). | |
|
| A history of COVID-19 can double the risk of heart attack, stroke or death according to new research led by Cleveland Clinic and the University of Southern California. | |
|
| Researchers at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute have created a CRISPR-based rapid molecular diagnostic for two forms of leukemia that are driven by mutations that involve gene fusions. | |
|
| A genome-wide study reveals significant genetic overlap between polycystic ovary syndrome and testosterone-related traits, highlighting shared causal variants. | |
|
| CDK12 is established as a tumor suppressor in prostate cancer, with its loss driving aggressive disease and creating vulnerabilities for targeted therapies. | |
|
| Researchers used single-cell and spatial genomics to map cell-type-specific changes in the middle temporal gyrus, identifying distinct disease phases in Alzheimer’s progression. | |
