Epigenetic mapping provides deeper insight into leukemia

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden and Kyoto University in Japan have identified new subgroups of the blood cancer acute myeloid leukemia. The study, published in the journal Nature, shows that changes in the regulation of genes within cells can help explain variation

Many chronic pain patients can reduce opioid use with slow, voluntary taper

More than 50 million Americans live with chronic pain; among them, approximately 1 in 10 take prescription opioids regularly. A new large-scale study led by Stanford Medicine suggests that—with the right approach—many people may be able to reduce their opioid use long term withou

High fever could temporarily reduce malaria transmission

The fever experienced by people with malaria exposes parasites to high temperatures within blood cells. This heat can lead to the accumulation of damaged proteins inside the parasite and trigger protective mechanisms against thermal stress.

Economic evaluation supports prophylactic naldemedine for opioid-induced constipation in c

Although opioids remain indispensable for pain relief in patients with advanced cancer, their use frequently results in OIC, which can substantially reduce quality of life and, in some cases, compromise the continuation of optimal pain management. Naldemedine, a peripherally acti

Microglia mechanism reveals why brain's stroke repair window closes

Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term disability worldwide and often results in impairments in movement, speech and cognition. While rehabilitation helps patients regain some lost functions, the brain's natural ability to repair itself often fades within a few months a
