Individuals with atrial fibrillation (Afib), or irregular heart rhythm, are at increased risk of stroke, chronic kidney disease and heart failure. These risks are significantly exacerbated if a type 2 diabetes diagnosis is added to the mix, says Md Mohaimenul Islam, Ph.D., resear

In one of the most comprehensive studies of coffee and liver health to date, Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University investigators linked higher coffee consumption with a lower risk of cirrhosis, liver cancer and liver-related death. The findings, published in Clinical Gastroente

The development of cancer is not a process triggered immediately by the emergence of an oncogenic mutation. There is growing evidence for the existence of an intermediate phase—hitherto poorly defined—in which mutated cells remain in a latent state, "accumulating the potential ne

Researchers at Tel Aviv University's Gray Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences have uncovered how a natural and essential immune system process can be hijacked to promote cancer progression. In a new study, the research team developed an advanced technology that enabled it to t

From the air we breathe to the food we eat, we are constantly exposed to thousands of chemicals—yet how these exposures affect our health has remained surprisingly difficult to understand. A new study led by researchers at the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Au

A pioneering food additive that can stop people from gaining weight has appeared on the EU's Novel Food List, indicating its safety for human consumers. Inulin propionate ester, or IPE, is a dietary fiber developed and tested by scientists at Imperial College London and at SUERC,

A research team led by Prof. Hyosang Lee of the Department of Brain Sciences at DGIST has identified TWIK-1, a type of potassium channel expressed in the spinal cord and peripheral sensory neurons of the somatosensory system, as a key molecular regulator of touch sensation and ch

A new Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) special feature highlights the critical role of behavioral and decision sciences in U.S. governance. The publications demonstrate how psychological and economic research protect public health, consumer rights and financ

Working with concurrent electroencephalogram and functional magnetic resonance imaging technology at the Beckman Institute's Biomedical Imaging Center, postdoctoral researcher Suhnyoung Jun and her colleagues have investigated how the brain connectome's dynamics unfold across dif

Walk into a crowded coffee shop, and what catches your eye as you take in the scene could say as much about you as the spirals on your fingertips or the mutations in your DNA. Eye movements are so unique, in fact, that they could be used to identify you through objects that have

Gum disease bacteria may spur calcium buildup in the heart's aortic valve, leading to a common and serious heart valve disease, according to preliminary, independent research presented at the American Heart Association's Basic Cardiovascular Sciences Scientific Sessions 2026, hel

A cross-disciplinary research team led by Hongjie Dai, director of the Materials Institute of Life Sciences and Energy (MILES) at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) in Shenzhen, has developed a promising near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent dye for potential clinical use in ureter imag
