A novel mechanism that allows cancer cells to spread throughout the body has been discovered by an international team of researchers, offering a potential new target to halt metastasis, which is to blame for 90 per cent of cancer deaths.
Finding precise techniques to assess a treatment's or medication's efficacy is a significant difficulty when testing new therapies for people with intellectual disabilities.
As the Christmas season starts to ramp up, University of South Australia researchers are reminding people to prioritize a good night's sleep as new research shows that troubled sleep may be associated with risk factors for type 2 diabetes.
Artificial intelligence can be used to turn a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) into a potent tool for diabetes monitoring and prevention, suggests researchers at Klick Applied Sciences.
The number of people suffering from Anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL), a rare disease, has recently increased and this spike in numbers may be linked to the expanding popularity of textured breast implants.
The findings of a recent study headed by Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian researchers, suggests that changes in a single gene allow dangerous gut bacteria to trigger the inflammation that underlies Crohn's disease.
Karolinska Institutet researchers have demonstrated that B lymphocytes, on which the efficient operation of the immune system depends, can occasionally cause more harm than good since their numbers sharply increase following intestinal trauma, impeding the healing process.
Recently, a research group developed an in-sensor reservoir computing system for latent fingerprint recognition with deep ultraviolet photo-synapses and a memristor array.
Studies suggest that on their own, microplastics, which are small plastic pieces less than five millimeters in length, are potentially harmful, and it's unclear what effect they could have on pollutants that latch onto them.
As the Christmas season starts to ramp up, University of South Australia researchers are reminding people to prioritize a good night's sleep as new research shows that troubled sleep may be associated with risk factors for type 2 diabetes.
A study into the impact of global warming on the biodiversity of the Antarctic has identified how the predicted expansion of ice-free areas will impact native animals and plants, paving the way for the invasion of non-native species in Antarctica.
A large US study has found that giving patients excess levels of oxygen during surgery is associated with a higher risk of subsequent kidney, heart, and lung injury.
