Widely used Type 2 diabetes drug does not prevent breast cancer spread, landmark trial finds

A widely used and inexpensive Type 2 diabetes drug, once hoped to hold enormous promise in treating breast cancer, does not prevent or stop the spread of the most common forms of the disease, according to new findings.

Gabapentin treatment may enhance recovery of movement after a stroke

The drug gabapentin, currently prescribed to control seizures and reduce nerve pain, may enhance recovery of movement after a stroke by helping neurons on the undamaged side of the brain take up the signaling work of lost cells, new research in mice suggests.

Women who are pregnant or nursing should receive a COVID booster vaccination

In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers evaluated the impact of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) booster vaccination in nursing and pregnant women.

23 May 2022

SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants are increasingly escaping immunity

In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers evaluated the neutralization evasion of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron sublineages.
