More daily walking and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity reduced dementia, cognitive impairment risk

Senior women were less likely to develop mild cognitive impairment or dementia if they did more daily walking and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, according to a new study led by the Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science at University of California San Diego.

Breathing and tilting motions of influenza glycoproteins could be exploited to better defend against flu

The potential "tripledemic" of influenza, SARS-CoV-2 and RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) infection continues to be a concern.

The efficacy of clarithromycin versus levofoxacin-based regimens for H.pylori treatment in naïve patients after the COVID-19 pandemic misuse of antibiotics

Researchers explored the eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori utilizing levofloxacin and clarithromycin-based regimens in patients with prior COVID-19 therapy.

Targeting newly discovered signaling pathway could boost the potency of cancer therapeutics

Cells zealously protect the integrity of their genomes, because damage can lead to cancer or cell death. The genome - a cell's complete set of DNA - is most vulnerable while it is being duplicated before a cell divides. Cancer cells constantly are dividing, so their genomes are constantly in jeopardy.

Researchers use multiplexed 3D imaging to perform molecular and morphological assessments of colorectal cancers

Researchers used multiplexed and three-dimensional imaging with machine-based learning and spatial statistics to perform molecular and morphological assessments of colorectal cancers (CRC).

New study evaluates post-COVID symptoms persistent for up to two years in non-hospitalized patients

Researchers followed up for two years with non-hospitalized post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients in France and determined when they returned to work. These patients had persistent symptoms, with some utterly incapacitating symptoms lasting as long as 22 months in some cases, that hindered them from working again and leading quality life.

New biosensor chip may increase accessibility to high-quality diagnostics

DNA can signal the presence of or predisposition to a slew of diseases, including cancer. The ability to flag down these clues, known as biomarkers, allows medical professionals to make critical early diagnoses and provide personalized treatments.
