Trump’s idea for health accounts has been tried. Millions of patients have ended up in debt.

Sarah Monroe once had a relatively comfortable middle-class life. She and her family lived in a neatly landscaped neighborhood near Cleveland. They had a six-figure income and health insurance. Then, four years ago, when Monroe was pregnant with twin girls, something started to feel off.

Routine blood test may flag hidden osteoporosis risk, study finds

A large hospital-based cross-sectional study examined whether routinely measured serum alkaline phosphatase can indicate osteoporosis risk in adults undergoing health checks. Higher ALP levels, even within the normal range, were associated with greater osteoporosis likelihood, particularly in younger, female, and metabolically healthy individuals.

Genome-edited immune cell therapy shows promise for treating aggressive blood cancer

A groundbreaking new treatment using genome-edited immune cells, developed by scientists at UCL (University College London) and Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), has shown promising results in helping children and adults fight a rare and aggressive form of blood cancer called T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL).

Lymphocyte levels help predict outcomes after CAR T-cell therapy in non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Measuring the lymphocytes - white blood cells that fight infection - in a patient's blood can be used to predict outcomes in non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients who receive CAR T-cell therapy, according to research from physicians at Fox Chase Cancer Center and Temple Health.

Timing of genetic mutation dictates childhood leukemia aggressiveness

A team of researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has uncovered why children with the same leukemia-causing gene mutation can have dramatically different outcomes: it depends on when in development the mutation first occurs.

Researchers explore brain activity linking nicotine withdrawal and pain sensitivity

Abstinent smokers experience increased pain sensitivity during withdrawal, to the point that they often require more pain relief after surgery.

Simple blood and urine tests could spare febrile infants from more invasive procedures

New evidence from a six-country study led by the Montreal Children's Hospital and Children's National Hospital shows simple blood and urine tests could spare many young infants with fevers from more invasive procedures.

NYS Medical Cannabis Program reduces chronic pain patients' reliance on opioids

Adults with chronic pain who participated in New York State's (NYS) Medical Cannabis Program were significantly less likely to require prescription opioids, according to a new study published today in JAMA Internal Medicine and led by researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Health System.

Serious side effects after CAR T cell therapy for multiple myeloma share a common immune root cause

Serious side effects, including neurotoxicity and intestinal inflammation, that appear weeks or months after patients receive CAR T cell therapy for multiple myeloma share a common immune root cause, are associated with high rates of death unrelated to cancer relapse-primarily infection-and may be avoidable.

PTSD may be linked to accelerated brain aging among World Trade Center responders

Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have found that post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) may be linked to accelerated brain aging among World Trade Center (WTC) responders involved in rescue and recovery operations after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
