Experimental drug engasertib shows promise for treating inherited bleeding disorder

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is the second most common inherited bleeding disorder worldwide, affecting 1 in 3,800 persons.

Using a psychedelic to explore the relationship between alpha waves and self-awareness

When people use a psychedelic called dimethyltryptamine (DMT), they experience a temporary loss of their sense of self. DMT interacts with a frequency of brain activity associated with self-referential processes (alpha waves), but it's unclear how this activity relates to self-awareness.

Study finds rising sex toy use and masturbation among older women

Although research on sexuality in older adults has been growing in recent years, most of the studies are focused on partnered sexual activity and not on solo sexual behavior, including masturbation or the use of sex toys.

Lung to gut movement of hospital-acquired bacterium raises the risk of sepsis

A hospital-acquired bacterium that causes serious infections can move from the lungs to the gut inside the same patient, raising the risk of life-threatening sepsis, new research reveals.

New analysis shows one in two people in the U.S. live with neurological conditions

One in two people in the United States, just over half of the population, is affected by a neurological disease or disorder, according to a new systematic analysis by the American Academy of Neurology and the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation published on November 24, 2025, in the journal JAMA Neurology.

Ultra-processed foods make up one-fifth of Italian calories - here’s who's most affected

Italian researchers found that ultra-processed foods make up about 20 percent of daily calories in adults, with younger, single, and Northern residents consuming the most. Higher adherence to the Mediterranean Diet was strongly linked to lower UPF intake across all sociodemographic groups.

Can diet calm early memory problems? Anti-inflammatory Mediterranean eating shows promise

Older women who follow a strongly anti-inflammatory Mediterranean diet report far fewer subjective memory complaints than those who do not. The AnMED pattern outperforms both traditional Mediterranean and MIND diets, showing a clear advantage for protecting early cognitive symptoms.

Masturbation could improve mood and sleep during menopause

This study found that about one in five perimenopausal and postmenopausal women experienced measurable symptom relief from masturbation, particularly for sleep and mood. Nearly half said they would consider using it for symptom relief if their doctor recommended it, although many had never discussed it with a clinician.

Combined healthy eating and exercise linked to greater reductions in visceral fat

Improving diet and increasing physical activity levels together may be more effective at preventing weight gain – particularly harmful fat inside the abdomen – than just changing one of these behaviours, new research from the University of Cambridge suggests.

Germany expands interdisciplinary surveillance to curb rising antibiotic resistance

OHIS stands for One Health Integrated Surveillance, i.e. the monitoring of antibiotic resistance in the sense of a holistic, interdisciplinary One Health strategy.

Inflammatory biomarkers offer new insights for precision medicine in ischemic stroke

Ischemic stroke, a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide, is a complex cerebrovascular event with outcomes heavily influenced by the inflammatory response.

Researchers identify the key habits that help adults eat more slowly

Eating slowly and chewing well in Japanese adults were strongly associated with savoring food and avoiding eating with a full mouth, with oral health playing an important supporting role. These behaviours varied across age and gender groups, highlighting cultural eating practices and dental factors that shape how people eat across adulthood.

Drought intensifies human-wildlife conflict by pushing carnivores closer to people

Periods of drought significantly increase human-wildlife conflict in California, with the strongest effects observed in carnivorous species. Conflict reports rise as precipitation declines and peak during the warmest, driest months of the year.

Oral semaglutide delivers real-world drops in blood sugar and weight in diabetes trial

Oral semaglutide delivered meaningful reductions in HbA1c and body weight among GLP-1RA-naïve adults with type 2 diabetes in a Dutch real-world cohort. Lipid levels and blood pressure showed only small changes, reflecting modest cardiometabolic effects outside glucose and weight control.

Tirzepatide reveals a brain signal that predicts returning food preoccupation

Researchers implanted electrodes in the human nucleus accumbens to track brain activity during severe food preoccupation in an individual taking tirzepatide. They found that a delta–theta biomarker disappeared during symptom-free periods and re-emerged weeks before relapse, suggesting a possible neural marker of vulnerability to dysregulated eating.

Deep brain stimulation for treatment-resistant severe depression shows positive results

Deep brain stimulation – implants in the brain that act as a kind of 'pacemaker' – has led to clinical improvements in half of the participants with treatment-resistant severe depression in an 'open label' trial.
