Research finds long-term health challenges in survivors of childhood cancer

Researchers at City of Hope, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the United States with its National Medical Center ranked among the nation's top cancer centers by U.S. News & World Report, today published a new study which found that some survivors of childhood cancer are more at risk for serious health issues as they grow older, including new cancers and chronic conditions like heart disease.

Cutting HFSS ultra-processed foods may save lives, says AHA report

The American Heart Association’s new science advisory links high consumption of ultra-processed foods to increased cardiometabolic risks and mortality, urging targeted reduction of HFSS UPFs. The report also calls for policy reforms, equity-focused strategies, and further research into mechanisms beyond nutrient content.

Brain’s energy control map offers blueprint for next-gen weight loss therapies

Scientists map how the brain integrates hormonal and neural signals from the body to control appetite, energy use, and reward pathways, revealing targets for next-generation anti-obesity drugs. This review highlights the interplay between neuroendocrine circuits, neuroplasticity, and pharmacotherapy for durable, non-aversive weight loss.

Breakthrough approaches enhance RNA delivery while minimizing inflammation

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are tiny fat bubbles that are used to deliver medicines, genes, and RNA into cells. However, in some cases LNPs can cause harmful inflammation as a result of the process of RNA delivery.

Fetal procedure dramatically reduces mortality in high-risk Vein of Galen Malformation cases

Building upon the success of the first in utero brain surgery for Vein of Galen Malformation (VOGM) reported in 2023, new data published today in JAMA provides further evidence for the potential use of fetal embolization for this condition.

Stalking and restraining orders linked to higher risk of heart disease in women

Women who reported having been stalked or obtained a restraining order were each more likely to experience a heart attack and/or stroke in later years compared to those who did not, according to new research published today in the American Heart Association's flagship journal Circulation.

Epigenetic breakthrough: $200 blood test spots diabetes heart risk better than standard tools

Researchers have developed a blood-based DNA methylation risk score that predicts first macrovascular events in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients more accurately than current cardiovascular risk tools. The score, when combined with clinical factors, could help target early prevention in high-risk individuals.

Prediabetes mortality link strongest in 20–54 age group

In a large US study, prediabetes was linked to higher mortality risk in younger adults aged 20–54, but not in older groups, after adjusting for demographics, lifestyle, and comorbidities. Targeted prevention strategies could help reduce early deaths in working-age populations.

Ancient shankh blowing practice found to improve sleep and alertness in OSA patients

People who practised blowing through a conch shell regularly for six months experienced a reduction in their symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), according to a small randomised controlled trial published today (Monday) in ERJ Open Research.

Understanding the biomarkers and mechanisms associated with anti-NMDAR encephalitis

Encephalitis is a potentially life-threatening condition that involves inflammation of the brain. While some cases of encephalitis are caused by a bacterial or viral infection, other cases of 'autoimmune' encephalitis result when the body's own immune system attacks the brain.

Understanding the complex relationship between ultraprocessed foods and health

Ultraprocessed foods or UPFs are a growing concern due to their widespread consumption and impact on potential health risks.

Gender gaps in Mediterranean eating and living

Gender differences in Mediterranean diet adherence impact health outcomes, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions to promote healthier lifestyles.

Vital role of physical activity in early type 2 diabetes care

New research to be presented at this year's Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Vienna, Austria (15-19 September) shows, among people recently diagnosed with type with type 2 diabetes and no previous cardiovascular disease, a clear association exists between a person's self-reported physical activity and their risk of all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiac events (MACE), that include heart attacks and strokes.

How too much screen time affects kids’ heart health and what can reduce the risk

A large Danish cohort study found that higher screen time in childhood and adolescence is linked to worse cardiometabolic health, with shorter sleep amplifying the risk. Blood metabolomics revealed a signature of high screen time, and in teens, it was tied to higher predicted cardiovascular disease risk.

AI-powered sweat sensor predicts anxiety before symptoms appear

Researchers have developed Stressomic, a wearable microfluidic biosensor that sequentially measures cortisol, epinephrine, and norepinephrine in sweat at six-minute intervals. The device distinguishes physical from psychological stress and predicts anxiety levels using machine learning.

Study links epigenetic markers to cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes

People with type 2 diabetes are up to four times more likely to have heart attacks, strokes, anginas and other coronary heart diseases than healthy people.

Sweetened tea doesn’t offer the same health benefits

Unsweetened tea is associated with reduced mortality risk, while sugar-sweetened varieties show no significant health benefits, according to recent studies.

Faster and further walking lowers heart disease and stroke risks

Analysis of over 36,000 people with high blood pressure has shown that taking more steps, even below the recommended daily target of 10,000 steps, and walking faster, is associated with a significant reduction in the risk of major problems of the heart and blood vessels.
