Patients with treatment-resistant depression have a 23 per cent higher risk of death than other depressed patients. They also have twice as much outpatient care and spend three times the number of days in inpatient care. These are findings of a new study published in JAMA Psychiatry by resea
How are galaxies born, and what holds them together? Astronomers assume that dark matter plays an essential role. However, as yet it has not been possible to prove directly that dark matter exists. A research team including Technical University of Munich (TUM) scientists has now measured for
According to a study published in Science Advances, researchers discovered that the brains of women had significantly higher amounts of a modified immune protein which could signal the existence of Alzheimer's.
In a new study, researchers have taken a close look at three treatment approaches that have been widely believed to slow the aging process. However, when tested in mice, these treatments proved largely ineffective in their supposed impact on aging.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the fifth leading cause of death in adults over 65 years old. While many potential treatments for neurodegenerative disease focus on developing drugs to target key culprits, a relatively new approach aims to treat the brain.
London [UK], December 14 (ANI/NewsVoir): MIT Square London is actively involved in building global partnerships to connect institutions and industries with researchers and professors to build sustainable solutions for the community.
In a global study, researchers have identified that most reservoirs of rodent-borne diseases tend to live exclusively or occasionally in or near human dwellings, show large fluctuations in their numbers, and/or are hunted for meat or fur.
Researchers have engineered molecules that act like 'cellular glue,' allowing them to direct in a precise fashion how cells bond with each other. The discovery represents a major step toward building tissues and organs, a long-sought goal of regenerative medicine.
Spiral galaxies represent one of the most spectacular features in our universe. Among them, spiral galaxies in the distant universe contain significant information about their origin and evolution. However, we have had a limited understanding of these galaxies due to them being too distant t
Researchers suggested cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that circulates inside of and around your brain and spinal cord, your three-pound brain doesn't feel particularly heavy. This fluid-filled space between your brain and skull shields it from a blow to the head and saturates it with nutrition.
Endometriosis is a condition that causes pelvic pain, menstrual cramps, and infertility, and it affects up to 15 percent of women in the United States who are of reproductive age. Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of the uterus. This tumour ma
In animal models, researchers revealed how water enriched with hydrogen molecules (H2) reduces the symptoms of neuropathic pain and its associated emotional disorders.
