Economic reports on Wednesday found that Chinese growth has sunk to the slowest pace in over three years. Despite benefitting from the global AI boom, the country has not managed to offset the slump due to a struggling property sector, drop in domestic spending and trade disrupti

Official data released on Wednesday shows China's GDP grew 4.3% in the second quarter, compared to a year prior. The last time quarterly growth was that weak was in late 2022, when China was feeling the impact of the Covid pandemic. Slow consumer demand, despite a surge in export

Blocking IL1RAP, a receptor that sits at a key control point in inflammatory signaling, can disrupt the tumor-driven inflammatory network that helps pancreatic cancer resist treatment, according to new research. Led by researchers at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of

The ongoing evolution of SARS-CoV-2, particularly the rapid emergence of the omicron variant and its sublineages, has weakened the effectiveness of existing vaccines and antiviral drugs, underscoring the potential risk of future coronavirus pandemics. In response, a joint researc

A common genetic mutation that helps some kidney cancers survive may also expose an unexpected weakness, one that MUSC Hollings Cancer Center researchers hope to transform into a new treatment strategy. In a study published in Cancer Research, Aguirre de Cubas, Ph.D., and colleag

A research team from National Taiwan University and the University of Oslo analyzed data on more than 1.3 million children across two countries, finding that an earlier European safety warning for valproate weakens to nonsignificance once underlying disease and other confounders

Primary CNS lymphoma is a rare cancer that arises from malignant white blood cells. Affected individuals develop tumors in the brain and, more rarely, in the spinal cord, the eyes or within the cerebrospinal fluid. These lymphomas can occur in people with weakened immune systems,

Millions of people rely on statins, a medication used to lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. But for some, the drugs come with an unwelcome trade-off: muscle pain, weakness and exercise intolerance that can make it difficult to continue treatment. No

A new "tumor-on-a-chip" model is giving scientists a live look at how pancreatic cancer can recruit the body's own immune cells to help tumors survive. Researchers say the findings, published in Biofabrication, reveal possible new targets to weaken the cancer's defenses and make

Researchers at the University of Sheffield have discovered that a fungus deadly to people with weakened immune systems can disable a critical defense used by neutrophils, the body's front-line, infection-fighting white blood cells.

For decades, researchers studying myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) have focused on the disease's underlying genetic cause: a mutation that produces a toxic form of RNA, disrupting the normal processing of thousands of genetic messages inside cells. While scientists have known this

Children born during the first COVID-19 lockdown in England had lower reported levels of executive function—crucial skills involved in making plans, solving problems and adapting to new situations—suggest findings from a study published online in the Archives of Disease in Childh
