Research reveals widespread cardiac harm from COVID, offers solutions

Millions of people around the world are suffering with the serious cardiovascular effects of Covid infection and long Covid. A lack of clear guidance on how to reduce this suffering and prevent further harm means that patients are not receiving the care they need, and some are turning to unproven or unsafe treatments.

Quality of care shapes how patients experience mental health hospitalization

What makes an admission to a mental health unit a more or less traumatic experience, and what role do nurses play in this experience? A study recently published in the Journal of Clinical Nursing focuses on a question that is as sensitive as it is little explored: the perception of quality of care as a factor that can make a big difference in mental health care.

Early parent-focused programs fail to reduce childhood obesity by age two

Existing approaches to parent-focused behavioral programs delivered up to 12 months of age which aim to combat childhood obesity are insufficient to improve body mass index (BMI) at approximately two years of age, according to the largest study to date on the topic published in The Lancet.

Concertgoers back detection dogs as practical COVID-19 screening tool in real-world trial

A feasibility study in Germany found that concertgoers strongly supported medical detection dogs for COVID-19 screening, with confidence rising after real-world use. The findings suggest canine testing could complement PCR and antigen tests, especially in large gatherings and high-traffic environments.
