What’s driving England’s rise in chronic illness? Ageing, not lifestyle, researchers find

A new Nature Communications study using the IMPACTNCD microsimulation model projects that England’s major illness burden will rise sharply by 2043, even with substantial lifestyle improvements. Population ageing, not modifiable risk factors, remains the dominant driver of future multimorbidity.

Opioid receptors caught in motion offering clues for safer painkillers

Scientists have known for decades that opioids relieve pain by binding to molecular switches in the brain called mu-opioid (pronounced "mew-opioid") receptors. What they didn't know - until now - was exactly what happens next.

New tool reveals hidden psychological reasons behind patients ignoring medication plans

A pioneering patient-reported outcome tool, developed by healthcare company Observia with the support of Kingston University, has shown significant promise in predicting the risk of a patient with chronic conditions not following their treatment plan, while also uncovering the deep psychological and social reasons driving the patient's decision making.

People with traumatic spinal cord injuries at higher risk of developing chronic health problems

A new study by investigators from Mass General Brigham shows that patients with traumatic spinal cord injuries (TSCI) are at a higher risk of developing a myriad of chronic health problems, regardless of age, location of the injury and prior health status.

UCLA experts call for individualized heart monitoring in breast cancer survivors

As breast cancer survival rates continue to climb - 4.3 million women in the U.S. are currently living with a history of the disease and in the next 10 years that number is expected to rise by another million - heart health has become an increasingly important part of survivorship care.

New initiative aims to accelerate aortic stenosis diagnosis and treatment

People living with aortic stenosis (AS) could gain earlier access to innovative care and treatment thanks to a new effort from the American Heart Association designed to boost clinical trial participation and speed diagnosis of this common but underdiagnosed heart valve condition.

Swapping meat for plant-based options cuts fat but lowers protein, study finds

Replacing meat with plant-based or mycoprotein alternatives in UK diets lowers saturated fat and boosts fiber but reduces protein intake, especially for teens and older adults. The overall saturated fat reduction is too small to meaningfully affect cholesterol levels, researchers report in npj Science of Food.

Flexible drug-delivery patch can promote tissue healing after a heart attack

MIT engineers have developed a flexible drug-delivery patch that can be placed on the heart after a heart attack to help promote healing and regeneration of cardiac tissue.

Three health tech innovators push boundaries to build a brighter future of cardiovascular care

As digital health technologies gain momentum, research is finding that more people are open to artificial intelligence (AI) supported health interventions when those are backed by clinical expertise and rooted in evidence-based guidelines.

New study finds no increased risk of heart and brain infarctions for transgender women

Contrary to previous research, transgender women who use the hormone oestradiol for their transition do not have an increased risk of heart attack and stroke compared to men in the general Dutch population.

Mapping how the heart heals after a heart attack

Over the course of evolution, the human heart has largely lost its ability to regenerate. Our distant ancestors were not afflicted by heart attacks - a condition that emerged primarily with modern lifestyles marked by poor diet, obesity, and other cardiovascular risk factors.

New WashU center aims to transform disease diagnosis through AI imaging

Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology (MIR) at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis is establishing a new center dedicated to developing AI-based imaging tools to improve the diagnosis and precision treatment of cancers, cardiovascular disease, neurological diseases and numerous other conditions.

Heated tobacco and cigarettes cause the same gut and vascular damage, study finds

Italian researchers found that both heated tobacco products (HTPs) and conventional cigarettes trigger oxidative stress, endotoxemia, and gut barrier disruption in adults and children. The findings challenge the perception that HTPs are a safer alternative to smoking.
