| |  | | | Pilates enhances cardiovascular and metabolic health in previously sedentary women, with notable improvements in heart rate and blood pressure after 4 weeks. | | | | | With obesity now affecting more than 40% of U.S. adults and fueling rising rates of heart disease, a new scientific statement from the American Heart Association calls for a comprehensive treatment approach that puts physical activity front and center. | | | | | Pitolisant, a histamine H3 receptor inverse agonist, improved recognition memory, working memory performance, and reinforcement learning in healthy adults. The findings suggest that histamine helps shape how the brain stabilizes new memories, accumulates evidence for decisions, and avoids overreacting to negative outcomes. | | | | | Many people with breast cancer can safely avoid chemotherapy with the use of a gene test, potentially sparing them unnecessary side effects without increasing the risk of the cancer returning, a large international clinical trial led by UCL has found. | | | | | AHA's scientific statement reveals exercise's vital role in obesity management, boosting cardiovascular health and supporting long-term weight loss efforts. | | | | | A study of 1,474 Clue app users found that women vaccinated against COVID-19 during the follicular phase had higher odds of self-reported side effects than those vaccinated during the luteal phase. | | | | | A randomized study of adults with obesity suggests that when you eat may matter as much as what you eat.

A study conducted by the University of Geneva (UNIGE), in collaboration with the Swiss Center for Applied Human Toxicology (SCAHT), provides a new answer by showing that cannabis use does not reduce testosterone levels in young men and may even increase its testicular synthesis. | |
