New research shows that spine disease, once considered a rarity in chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis, affects as many as 10-35 per cent of patients and is asymptomatic in one-third.
According to new simulations, fish glance down when swimming because the stable riverbed underneath them provides more trustworthy information about their swimming direction and speed.
Adult cancer survivors, particularly those diagnosed within five years and/or have a history of chemotherapy, have an increased risk for bone fractures, specifically pelvic and vertebral fractures, compared to older adults without cancer (ACS), according to a recent large study by researcher
Many factors determine whether an individual responding to vaccination will generate an effective response, including specific biomarkers within a person's immune system.
Specialized channel proteins are possible therapeutic targets for sleep apnea and similar abnormally slow breathing disorders in obese people, suggest Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers who did a study on mice.
For their study, the WSU research team treated the sludge at high temperature and pressure with oxygen added before the anaerobic digestion process. The small amount of oxygen under high-pressure conditions acts as a catalyst that breaks down the polymers in the material.
A recent research has identified a unique genetic signature among subsets of infiltrating T cells of different types of cancer after analyzing data from a public repository, CD4-T, CD8-T cells, and Treg.
A previously unknown aspect of human evolution has come to light due to the use of ancient DNA, including samples of human remains around 45,000 years old.
A new University of Washington study led by Elizabeth Miller reports that throughout Earth's ancient history, there were several periods of time when many fish actually favoured the cold, dark, barren waters of the deep sea.
Specialized channel proteins are possible therapeutic targets for sleep apnea and similar abnormally slow breathing disorders in obese people, suggest Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers who did a study on mice.
During recent brain plasticity and visual perception research, it was found that individuals who had had surgery as children to remove half of their brains correctly detected differences between words or faces more than 80 per cent of the time.
