| | Princeton researchers have revealed new links between high-fat diets and aggressive breast cancer, demonstrating the important role fat plays in making some cancers more invasive. | |
|
| | A new ACC/AHA dyslipidemia guideline and editorial argue that guideline development is rigorous but can lag behind fast-moving science, using the VESALIUS-CV trial as a clear example. The trial showed that intensive LDL cholesterol lowering with evolocumab reduced cardiovascular events in high-risk patients without prior heart attack or stroke, with implications for future guideline updates. | |
|
| | New research to be presented at this year's European Congress on Obesity (ECO 2026, Istanbul, Turkey, 12-15 May) shows that those living with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have a 71% higher risk of cardiovascular events (CVEs) or death from any cause (all-cause mortality) compared with those not living with OSA. | |
|
| | A new study has found that metformin, a widely prescribed diabetes drug, may mimic one of exercise's core biological effects in men with prostate cancer, raising levels of a molecule tied to energy balance and weight control even when patients are inactive. | |
|
| | The effects of dry-cured ham on cardiometabolic health are nuanced, with evidence suggesting it may not adversely affect key health markers in moderation. | |
|
| | Advances in iPSC technology and in vivo reprogramming are expanding the possibilities for cell therapy. Explore the science behind these emerging strategies. | |
|
| | The Lancet obesity framework aims to improve risk assessment but risks delaying treatment and deepening health inequities, according to recent evaluations. | |
|
| | For decades, scientists have been carefully unraveling the role of genes in disease by examining how small variations in a person's genetic code can shape lifelong risk of developing common conditions such as cancer, diabetes, or heart disease. | |
|
| | Physicians are less likely to provide preventive care such as conception counseling and some cancer screenings to women with diabetes than they do for women without the disease, a UCLA-led study suggests. | |
|
| | Graz University of Technology, the University of Graz and the Medical University of Graz have jointly developed an interactive system that automatically adapts evidence-based medical information to patients' prior knowledge and needs. | |
|
| | When 57-year-old Brooklyn resident Timothy Rhonda visited Park Ridge Family Health Center at NYU Langone with dangerously high blood pressure, he worried he might once again end up in the hospital. | |
|
| | Unconventional crops like the Bambara groundnut are increasingly being studied for their climate-resilience and nutritional benefits. | |
|
| | Neuroendocrine cells are unique in their ability to act both as nerve cells and hormone-making cells. | |
