A new Houston Methodist study highlights a promising noninvasive imaging technique that could help doctors more accurately diagnose papillary thyroid cancer, the most common type of thyroid cancer.

The McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) is the first site in the world to launch a first-in-human phase 1 clinical trial evaluating a novel radioligand therapy for HER2-positive cancers, including certain types of breast cancer.

Studies of genetics conducted in yeast cells, human neurons, mice or other model systems often reveal networks of genes that could contribute to complex diseases, such as breast cancer, type 2 diabetes and Parkinson's disease. But those findings don't always translate to human bi

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), such as Ozempic or Wegovy, have revolutionized type 2 diabetes and weight-loss management, but they have also led to some unfortunate outcomes. A recent study in JAMA Psychiatry has raised concerns that GLP-1 medications may

More than 1 in 4 adults in the United States have some type of disability as of 2026, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A Yale study published in the Cureus found that patients with disabilities are almost entirely unrepresented in orthopedic research.

More children are getting diseases such as celiac disease, type 1 diabetes and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) than before, research shows. IBD is a term for conditions like ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. These are all autoimmune diseases, which are the most common chro

The autoimmunity associated with type 1 diabetes often begins in the first years of life, and the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes is rapidly rising among children and teens.

Adelaide University researchers have carried out the first in-human trial of a new type of treatment for a leading cause of blindness in working age adults, with promising results.

Poor nocturnal sleep is independently associated with a substantially higher risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D), according to a study published online June 22 in Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome.

Type 1 diabetes is widely understood as an autoimmune disease, with the immune system attacking the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas. But two new studies suggest those cells may be more than passive victims. Together, the findings indicate that beta cells' own stress

A trial led by University of Pittsburgh researchers and published today in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology adds nuance to the question of whether older human insulins are as effective as insulin analogs in low-resource settings.

A drug commonly used to treat epilepsy could be repurposed to significantly boost the response to vaccines in humans, helping protect those for whom the vaccine is less effective, such as older adults or immunocompromised people. A Cambridge-led team showed that the drug more tha
