New roadmap guides antiseizure medication adjustments during pregnancy and postpartum
For the first time, clinicians have access to a clear, evidence-based roadmap for adjusting antiseizure medication doses during pregnancy and after childbirth.
Conversation may quietly impair the visual foundations of driving
New research from Fujita Health University reveals that talking can subtly delay the eyes’ ability to detect and stabilize on visual information.
Calcium signaling helps maintain protein quality in the endoplasmic reticulum
Calcium (Ca2+) drives many cellular functions, though the way it controls quality of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a cellular organelle that synthesizes and transports proteins, is widely unknown.
Study reveals a therapeutic vulnerability in aggressive subtype of triple-negative breast cancer
A new study published today in Science Translational Medicine by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center details a therapeutic vulnerability in patients with an aggressive subtype of triple-negative breast cancer.
Vagus nerve may hold the key to a younger and healthier heart
The secret to a healthier and "younger" heart lies in the vagus nerve. A recent study coordinated by the Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies in Pisa and published in Science Translational Medicine has shown that preserving bilateral cardiac vagal innervation is an anti-aging factor.
Brain imaging reveals how stimulant drugs improve performance in ADHD
Prescription stimulants, such as Ritalin and Adderall, are widely used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), including in children.
Persuading people to get vaccinated may intensify social polarization
Encouraging people to get vaccinated is often seen as a public health success story. However, understanding how persuading people to roll up their sleeves to receive vaccines creates social division is crucial.
AI model may help make liposuction safer
A newly developed artificial intelligence (AI) model is highly accurate in predicting blood loss in patients undergoing high-volume liposuction, reports a study in the January issue of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the official medical journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
Automated system improves deep learning accuracy in chest radiography analysis
Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have discovered a practical way to detect and fix common labeling errors in large radiographic collections. By automatically verifying body-part, projection, and rotation tags, their research improves deep-learning models used for routine clinical tasks and research projects.
Researchers develop mild mitochondrial uncouplers for obesity treatment
Researchers have developed experimental drugs that encourage the mitochondria in our cells to work a little harder and burn more calories. The findings could open the door to new treatments for obesity and improve metabolic health.
Alcohol consumption plays a major role in India’s mouth cancer burden
Even a low daily intake of alcohol--just 9 g or around one standard drink-is linked to a 50% heightened risk of mouth (buccal mucosa) cancer in India, with the greatest risk associated with locally brewed alcohol, finds a large comparative study, published online in the open access journal BMJ Global Health.
Restoring brain energy balance reverses Alzheimer’s disease in mouse models
For over a century, Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been considered irreversible. Consequently, research has focused on disease prevention or slowing, rather than recovery.
Discovery of a fat-regulating enzyme points to a new obesity therapy
Obesity is a global epidemic and a major cause of morbidity and mortality because it increases the risk for comorbidities, including heart disease and fatty liver disease (MASLD).
Older age affects functional recovery after spinal cord injury
A new study published on December 23, 2025, in Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, looks at how age may affect recovery for people with spinal cord injuries.
Paternal microplastic exposure alters metabolic health in offspring
A study led by biomedical scientists at the University of California, Riverside, has shown for the first time that a father's exposure to microplastics (MPs) can trigger metabolic dysfunctions in his offspring.
Neighborhood disadvantage shapes recovery after hip fracture
Older adults who live in economically disadvantaged neighborhoods spend significantly fewer days at home in the year after a fall-related hip fracture than those living in more affluent areas, according to a large national study published today in JAMA Network Open.
Engineered womb lining model opens a window into embryo implantation
By engineering a system replicating the womb lining with high biological accuracy, researchers at the Babraham Institute and Stanford University have been able to study the implantation of human embryos, opening up this enigmatic process to investigation.
Global food habits could decide the planet’s climate future
For many of us, the holiday season can mean delightful overeating, followed by recriminatory New Year's resolutions.
Engineered sensor reveals the brain’s hidden chemical conversations
Scientists have engineered a protein able to record the incoming chemical signals of brain cells (as opposed to just their outgoing signals).
AI analysis maps a century of global aging research
A new research paper was published in Volume 17, Issue 11 of Aging-US on November 25, 2025, titled "A natural language processing–driven map of the aging research landscape."
