Scientists uncover drivers of recurrent arthritis after immunotherapy, suggesting potential biomarkers
A new study led by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has shown that inflammatory arthritis occurring as a side effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors behaves like an immune-memory disease, suggesting that certain immune cell populations could serve
Key genetic differences between pediatric and adult forms of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases identified
Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have found that pediatric-onset rheumatic and inflammatory diseases have distinct genetic architecture compared with those in adults.
Belly Fat vs. BMI: Which Better Predicts Your Heart Disease Risk?
Research shows that a person’s belly fat may be a better predictor of heart disease risk than BMI. Destaque: 50%, 15%.
A simple blood test could detect multiple cancers and reveal where they started
UCLA researchers have created a blood test that can scan DNA signals for multiple cancers, liver diseases, and signs of organ damage—and even indicate where trouble may be developing.
Scientists discover a hidden brain rhythm that could improve Parkinson’s treatment
Scientists have pinpointed a brain network—and its distinctive electrical rhythm—that appears to drive the benefits of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease.
3,500-year-old skeletons challenge what scientists thought they knew about syphilis
Ancient remains from Vietnam suggest diseases like yaws may have been passed from mother to child thousands of years ago, a form of transmission often assumed to indicate syphilis.
Immune 'reprogramming' could protect poultry from deadly diseases without antibiotics
University of Bristol–led researchers have identified a naturally occurring gut molecule that could strengthen chickens' immune response against a wide range of bacterial infections. This development, published today, Aug. 12, in The Journal of Immunology, offers a major step for
Blood-thinning medication linked to slower cognitive decline
People with both atrial fibrillation and Alzheimer's disease who are treated with modern NOAC blood-thinning medicines may experience a slower rate of cognitive decline.
Executive order calls for fewer routine childhood vaccines, doctors push back
A new executive order calls for American children to be routinely immunized against 11 diseases instead of the 17 now recommended by federal health officials.
Computational framework identifies novel pathway for asthma inflammation
Researchers at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health, in collaboration with investigators at the University of Chicago, have developed a new computational framework that helps scientists identify genes that play central roles in diseases such as asthma but are often
Stem cells create humanlike heart valve tissue to model disease and test treatments
Melbourne researchers have created human heart valve tissues from stem cells, providing a powerful new platform to advance treatments for childhood heart diseases.
