Research ushers in a new era of hope for patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia

More than half of patients in a Phase III clinical trial who received a limited course of the experimental monoclonal antibody ianalumab for primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), an autoimmune disorder that can cause life-threatening bleeding, were able to maintain safe platelet counts without serious bleeding episodes for at least one year.

Accuracy of remote photoplethysmography drops sharply at elevated heart rates

Researchers at Bielefeld University have analyzed how reliably AI methods can detect pulse rates from simple video recordings.

Online reference library provides a more accurate picture of drug exposure

Doctors and researchers try to understand what medications a person has taken by asking patients directly or by looking at medical records. But this information is often incomplete.

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.

Everyday PFAS exposure alters placental function in early pregnancy

This study measured real-life PFAS concentrations in first-trimester human placentas and used these data to create a pregnancy-relevant PFAS mixture. In 3D trophoblast spheroid models, the mixture altered invasion, hormone secretion, and gene expression without broadly reducing viability at environmentally relevant doses.

Novel wireless device uses light to send information directly to the brain

In a new leap for neurobiology and bioelectronics, Northwestern University scientists have developed a wireless device that uses light to send information directly to the brain - bypassing the body's natural sensory pathways.

Lower dose of immunotherapy for malignant melanoma improves results

According to a new study, lower doses of approved immunotherapy for malignant melanoma can give better results against tumors, while reducing side effects.

Noninvasive Raman device tracks blood glucose accurately in under a minute

MIT researchers developed a compact band-pass Raman spectroscopy device that noninvasively tracks glucose through the skin in under a minute using physically interpretable optical signals. In a pilot study and tissue phantom validation, the system showed glucose measurements comparable to commercial continuous glucose monitors, supporting further clinical evaluation.

Kiwifruit intake boosts vitamin C in skin and supports dermal structure

Study shows that increasing dietary vitamin C intake with kiwifruit raises vitamin C levels in both the dermis and epidermis through active transport from the bloodstream. Higher skin vitamin C levels were associated with increased skin density and epidermal cell proliferation, but not with improved UV protection or measurable increases in new collagen markers.

Intravenous iron shows safe and beneficial outcomes for patients with bacterial infection and anemia

Treatment with intravenous (IV) iron significantly improved survival and increased hemoglobin levels in patients with iron-deficiency anemia who were hospitalized for an acute bacterial infection, according to an analysis of data from more than 85,000 patients.

Study shines light on how P2X4 receptor can be inhibited

A study carried out by the University of Bonn and the University Hospital Bonn throws light on how an important receptor can be inhibited.

Scientists uncover why SETX-deficient cancer cells rely on error-prone DNA repair

The DNA inside our cells is constantly being damaged, and one of the worst kinds of damage is a double-strand break-when both sides of the DNA helix are cut at once.

Emotional support in marriage associated with lower BMI and fewer food cravings

Strong social relationships, particularly high-quality marriages, may help protect against obesity by influencing a complex communication system between the brain and gut, according to new research by UCLA Health.

Study opens up new perspectives for targeted care of women with gestational diabetes

An international research team led by the Medical University of Vienna has shown that continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in women with gestational diabetes can reduce the risk of a newborn with above-average birth weight.

NeuMap unveils the hidden architecture and life-long patterns of human neutrophils

Neutrophils are the most abundant immune cells in the body and the first to respond to infection or tissue damage.

Noninvasive blood-glucose monitoring method could replace finger-prick tests for diabetes

A noninvasive method for measuring blood glucose levels, developed at MIT, could save diabetes patients from having to prick their fingers several times a day.

How tick saliva reprograms the skin’s immune defenses

A research team led by the Medical University of Vienna has gained new insights into how ticks influence the human immune system in order to introduce pathogens.

Atelerix and Labskin partner to enable long-distance transport of advanced in vitro skin models

Atelerix, a biotech company revolutionizing cell preservation and biological transport with its pioneering hydrogel encapsulation technology, today announced an agreement with Labskin, a global leader in laboratory-grown human skin models used for research, testing and product development.
