Influenza virus hijacks human gene regulator to evade immune system

The influenza virus manipulates the body's gene regulation system to accelerate its own spread, according to researchers at the University of Gothenburg.

Study evaluates long-term outcomes of gamma knife radiosurgery in patients with grade 2 meningiomas

The role of radiosurgery in the treatment of grade 2 meningioma remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcomes of gamma knife radiosurgery (GKRS) in patients with grade 2 meningiomas and to identify factors influencing tumor control and survival.

Why your heart works harder at night after a few drinks, according to new research

Researchers at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich found that moderate alcohol consumption transiently raises nocturnal resting heart rate without altering objective sleep stages. However, it worsens subjective sleep quality, highlighting subtle cardiovascular stress even at low alcohol doses.

Immunotherapy replaces surgery for early-stage dMMR cancers in landmark study

Neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade with dostarlimab achieved high rates of organ preservation in patients with early-stage mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR) solid tumors across multiple types. Most patients avoided surgery with durable disease control, reshaping potential cancer treatment pathways.

Humanized antibody dismantles metabolic barrier as a potential cancer immunotherapy

A Ludwig Cancer Research study has identified a specific mode of fat uptake by immune cells within tumors that serves as a metabolic checkpoint against anti-cancer immune responses.

Insights into the brain's switching mechanism could improve Parkinson's treatment

New USC research offers an unseen insight into how the brain shifts gears. The researchers discovered that our innate ability to make quick changes in motor function are the result of a unique brain mechanism.

Processed blueberry bars provide polyphenols as effectively as raw fruit, research reveals

A randomized controlled trial from North Carolina State University found that food processing minimally affects the bioavailability of (poly)phenols from blueberries and blueberry-enriched protein bars. Both processed and raw forms delivered comparable levels of bioavailable phytochemicals.

Largest study identifies new genetic targets for osteoarthritis treatment

Researchers have uncovered multiple new genes and genetic pathways that could lead to repurposing hundreds of existing drugs for osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis.

Health care providers working together as ACOs save Medicare billions over long term

Teams of health care providers called Accountable Care Organizations participating in the Medicare Shared Savings Program have saved Medicare between $4.1 billion and $8.1 billion from 2012 through 2019, according to a new study from Weill Cornell Medicine investigators.

CommunityRx program reduces ER visits for food insecure children

In a new clinical study published in JAMA Pediatrics, researchers at the University of Chicago Medicine found that a low-intensity program that "prescribes" community resources to every parent or other primary caregiver of a hospitalized child reduced the use of acute care for children of food-insecure families in the following year, saving potentially thousands of dollars in healthcare expenditures while demanding little more than minutes of staff time per family.

MASLD in children linked to increased mortality and chronic complications

Researchers from University of California San Diego have found that children diagnosed with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) are at significantly increased risk of premature death and serious long-term health complications.

Immune evasion found in early stages of HPV-related anogenital lesions

A new research paper was published in Oncotarget, Volume 16, on April 24, 2025, titled "PD-L1 and FOXP3 expression in high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the anogenital region."

Ferritin levels unrelated to infertility and metabolic health risks in women with PCOS

Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) tend to have higher average ferritin levels compared to control subjects, but this does not seem to have a significant impact on their fertility or metabolic health.

Study links ultraprocessed foods to higher risk of premature deaths, modeling shows

A study analyzing data from nationally representative dietary surveys and mortality data from eight countries (Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, United Kingdom, and United States) shows that premature deaths attributable to consumption of ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) increase significantly according to their share in individuals' total energy intake.

High cannabis use associated with increased colon cancer mortality

Researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine have found that individuals with colon cancer and a documented history of high cannabis use were more than 20 times more likely to die within five years of diagnosis compared to those without such a history.
