Researchers examined the effect of experiencing bullying in childhood on mental health in adolescence.

Researchers examined whether the influence of gut microbiome perturbations on various biological processes, such as the dysregulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, performance of the immune system, and the production of neurotransmitters and short-chain fatty acids contributed to the manifestation and progression of mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, and eating disorders.

Researchers evaluated rational combination treatment regimens for advanced/metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

A study in "Frontiers in Nutrition" shows mussel oil significantly outperforms fish oil in preventing atherosclerosis in mice, suggesting a potential superior dietary supplement for human cardiovascular health.

Exercise can be a powerful tool to fight depression and should be routinely prescribed as part of treatment plans, according to University of Queensland research.

Securing suitable childcare for the irregular and long working hours demanded by a medical career is a crippling financial burden and a draining source of stress for doctor parents, reveals an exclusive snapshot survey by The BMJ today.

A groundbreaking scientific study published in Nature Cardiovascular Research has unveiled a remarkable discovery that may have far-reaching implications for the treatment of heart disease.

A new research paper was published in Genes & Cancer on February 5, 2024, entitled, "Roles of USP1 in Ewing sarcoma."

Chronic exposure of human skin to ultraviolet light causes premature aging, or photoaging. As the skin undergoes photoaging, type I collagen bundles, which are found in the dermis beneath the top layer of the skin and provide strength and support to skin, become fragmented.

Agent Orange, an herbicide used during the Vietnam War, is a known toxin with wide-ranging health effects.

Study found that a ketogenic diet (KD) significantly increased serum beta-hydroxybutyrate levels, suggesting nutritional ketosis, and showed a trend towards reducing self-reported alcohol craving and a neurobiological craving signature (NCS) for alcohol in patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD), indicating its potential to modulate alcohol craving.

Review examines the effects of intermittent fasting (IF) on the human gut microbiome, revealing variable impacts on microbiota composition and diversity, influenced by fasting type, dietary habits, and individual microbiome characteristics.

Published in the Journal of Infectious Diseases Oxford Academic, research led by the University of Minnesota Medical School offers a new avenue of hope in the fight against chronic human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

A study co-led by researchers at Miami Cancer Institute, part of Baptist Health South Florida, found that ablative stereotactic magnetic resonance (MR)-guided adaptive radiation therapy may improve local control (LC) and overall survival (OS) in patients with borderline resectable (BRPC) and locally advanced pancreas cancer (LAPC).

Comprehensive review highlights the increasing trend of mammal-to-mammal transmissions of H5N1 avian influenza, emphasizing the need for vigilant surveillance to prevent a potential pandemic.

Study introduces a novel biomarker-based model to predict imminent myocardial infarction (IMI), identifying key proteins and metabolites that could revolutionize early detection and prevention strategies.

Study reveals how smoking, CMV latent infection, and BMI significantly influence cytokine release, impacting immune response variability and potentially affecting disease risk.

Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention demonstrate that Black women in the United States are three times more likely to die from a pregnancy-related cause than are white women.

Like other factors such as age, sex and genetics, smoking has a major impact on immune responses. This is the finding recently made by a team of scientists at the Institut Pasteur using the Milieu Intérieur cohort of 1,000 healthy volunteers, established to understand variability in immune responses.
