Global cancer cases and deaths expected to soar by 2050 despite advances in treatment

There has been a rapid increase in the global number of cancer cases and deaths between 1990 and 2023, despite advances in cancer treatment and efforts to tackle cancer risk factors over that same time period.

Blood and brain biomarkers transform how doctors confirm Alzheimer’s disease

A new Lancet review proposes a three-wave diagnostic pathway that combines clinical expertise with blood, CSF, and PET biomarkers. This approach aims to deliver earlier, more accurate, and more equitable Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis worldwide.

Researchers explore blueberries as a tool to support microbiota in early life

Researchers tested blueberry powder as one of the first complementary foods in human milk-fed infants. The trial found exploratory evidence that blueberries may support healthier gut microbiota development during early life.

How food choices and cooking methods drive brain inflammation and disease

Researchers reviewing evidence in NeuroSci show how dietary AGEs and their interaction with RAGE drive oxidative stress, inflammation, and neurodegeneration. They highlight how cooking methods and diet choices could lower AGE burden and protect brain health, while calling for rigorous clinical trials.

Scientists outline how future therapies could change type 1 diabetes care

Researchers writing in The Lancet review breakthroughs in type 1 diabetes treatment, from immunotherapies that delay onset to stem-cell β-cell replacement and automated insulin delivery. They stress that equitable access, validated surrogate endpoints, and scalable technologies are crucial for lasting impact.

High levels of albumin in the urine linked to increased risk of dementia

A study shows that people with higher levels of the protein albumin in their urine are at increased risk of developing dementia. The study, led by researchers at Karolinska Institutet, is published in the scientific journal Journal of Internal Medicine.

Misaligned perceptions lead to pediatric antibiotic overprescribing

Researchers from USC and Duke report that the persistent "know-do gap" - where clinicians know guidelines but practice differently - is the primary driver of antibiotic overprescribing for pediatric diarrhea in India's private sector, not lack of knowledge, point-of-sale profits, or stockouts of clinically recommended treatments such as oral rehydration salts (ORS).

"Light-touch" diabetes intervention can be successfully integrated into clinical workflows

This study tested whether a referral order inside the Epic electronic health record (EHR) could help primary care clinicians refer patients to community-based diabetes prevention programs (DPPs), an important public health strategy to reduce incident type 2 diabetes, and whether patients enrolled after referral.

Regular phone support after losing weight helps people to keep the pounds off

People who receive regular phone support after losing weight are more likely to keep the pounds off - but getting extra calls when at risk for regaining weight doesn't provide additional benefit, according to a new study led by Kathryn M. Ross, Ph.D., M.P.H., senior research scientist at Advocate Aurora Research Institute and associate professor in the Department of Social Sciences and Health Policy at Wake Forest University School of Medicine.

A single drug stabilizes nearly all mutations of key kidney protein

A study published today in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology is the first time researchers have shown evidence that a single drug, already licensed for medical use, can stabilize nearly all mutated versions of a human protein, regardless of where the mutation is in the sequence.

Researchers call for consistent biomarker scoring

More than 1500 persons in Norway have had a liver transplantation. But how can doctors know which patients need extra follow-up or additional treatment so that as many as possible can live a long life afterwards?

Georgia State scientist receives $25,000 grant to develop mechanisms for treating obesity

Chong Hyun Shin, a research associate professor in the Institute for Biomedical Sciences at Georgia State University, has received a $25,000 grant to develop mechanisms for treating obesity and obesity-related metabolic dysfunctions.

Orforglipron pill improves heart and metabolic risk factors in trial

Patients taking an experimental oral GLP-1 drug lost significant weight and improved their heart and metabolic risk factors in a large, international, phase 3 clinical trial led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine, McMaster University, York University and other institutions.

Scientists use blood chemistry to predict disease years before it strikes

Researchers built the largest plasma metabolome-phenome atlas using 274,241 UK Biobank participants, linking over 73,000 metabolite-trait and 52,000 metabolite-disease associations. The study shows metabolic risk scores can predict diseases years before diagnosis, with strong accuracy for diabetes and kidney complications.

How much apple cider vinegar reduces weight? Meta-analysis points to 30 mL daily

A new meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials shows apple cider vinegar can modestly but significantly reduce body weight, BMI, and waist circumference in adults, particularly those with obesity or type 2 diabetes.

Severe obesity linked to lower rates of recommended cancer screenings

In a recent cross-sectional study, researchers from Pennington Biomedical Research Center found that severe obesity is associated with a lower rate of cancer screenings.

Psychological distress after a heart attack emerges as a critical risk factor for heart health

Many people experience one or more types of psychological distress, including depression, anxiety, psychosocial stress or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), after a heart attack, which can affect their physical recovery and long-term heart health, according to a new American Heart Association scientific statement, published today in the American Heart Association's flagship, peer-reviewed journal Circulation.

22 Sep 2025

New quintuple agonist shows promise for treating obesity and type 2 diabetes

Much excitement has built in recent years on the new class of incretin drugs that include glucagon-like-peptide-1 inhibitor (single agonists such as semaglutide) and also dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (dual agonists such tirzepatide).

Hurricane Sandy survivors face elevated heart risks long after the storm

Researchers studying Medicare beneficiaries found that Hurricane Sandy–related flooding modestly increased cardiovascular disease risk for up to five years. Heart failure drove much of the rise, particularly in New Jersey, with short-term and delayed spikes observed.
