A systematic review in the British Journal of Sports Medicine finds major inconsistencies in how heading impacts are measured, urging the use of wearable technology and standardized metrics to safeguard players from potential long-term brain injury.

A new study from UC San Francisco shows that our natural eating patterns are more closely tied to seasonal rhythms than previously thought.

Retired UK male footballers face a markedly higher risk of foot and ankle osteoarthritis (OA), primarily due to prior injuries sustained during their careers. While corticosteroid injections were linked with OA, this association likely reflects treatment for injury rather than a direct cause.

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine, have uncovered an unexpected molecular partnership that reshapes scientists' understanding of how brain inflammation arises in Alzheimer's disease.

A study from the College of Engineering and Computer Science and the Sensing Institute (I-SENSE) at Florida Atlantic University reveals that foot-mounted wearable sensors and a 3D depth camera can accurately measure how people walk – even in busy clinical environments – offering a powerful and more accessible alternative to traditional gait assessment tools.

Farts are causing a stink in the research world, but in a positive way.

Fitness amongst young adults varies widely from one country to another, and is strongly associated with both socioeconomic development and gender equality, a new study from Karolinska Institutet published in the Journal of Sport and Health Science reports.

Pain affects activity levels, but how individuals understand and act in the face of pain can make a difference, a new study from the University of Portsmouth has found.

Older women who achieved at least 4,000 steps per day for just one or two days each week showed significantly lower risks of death and cardiovascular disease. The study suggests that total step volume, not frequency, drives these benefits, redefining what “enough movement” means for health.

A new study co-led by investigators at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center found that women with early-stage cervical cancer who received radiation plus chemotherapy reported a greater short-term decline in quality of life compared to those who received radiation alone.

Conducted at the University of Eastern Finland, a new study shows that images portraying dementia in Finnish newspapers often paint a clichéd and negative picture.

Interventions designed to reduce loneliness can be effective, but do not yet offer a complete solution to what is becoming a worldwide public health problem, according to research published by the American Psychological Association.

People with both cavities and gum disease may face a higher risk of ischemic stroke, according to a study published on October 22, 2025, in Neurology Open Access, an official journal of the American Academy of Neurology.

Adults with gum disease may be more likely to have signs of damage to the brain's white matter, called white matter hyperintensities, than people without gum disease, according to a new study published on October 22, 2025, in Neurology Open Access, an official journal of the American Academy of Neurology.

For decades, scientists have thought they understood the biochemical machinery that causes asthma-inflammation in the lungs that constricts airways and makes it hard to breathe.

A new study estimates that nearly one in five urinary tract infections in Southern California may be caused by E. coli strains transmitted through contaminated meat – and pose a hidden foodborne risk to millions of people not just in California but across the US.

A new research paper was published in Volume 17, Issue 9 of Aging-US on September 11, 2025, titled "Roles of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in aging-related muscle and bone loss in mice."

A new potential antibody therapy strategy which restricts the growth of treatment-resistant breast cancers has been developed by scientists.

Our fat cells, called adipocytes, do more than just store extra weight. They play a key role in managing the body's energy.

A new study led by Flinders University has found that being exposed to bright light at night can significantly increase the chances of developing serious heart problems, including heart attacks, strokes and heart failure.
