| A study led by researchers from the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center sheds light on testosterone recovery following androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in men undergoing radiotherapy for prostate cancer, providing key insights for optimizing patient care. | |
|
| Researchers find that ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption may not be directly responsible for poor health outcomes, with lifestyle factors playing a significant role. More experimental research is needed to establish causality. | |
|
| Study demonstrates that glutathione (GSH) significantly reduces acetaldehyde levels, a key factor in hangovers, though subjective symptoms showed little difference between groups. Pharmacokinetic data indicate that GSH accelerates acetaldehyde clearance, providing potential relief from hangover symptoms. | |
|
| Researchers discovered microplastics in both tumor and para-tumor prostate tissues, with higher concentrations found in tumor samples, raising concerns about their potential role in cancer development. | |
|
| Metastatic cancer can be a devastating diagnosis. The cancer is spreading. It may travel to multiple organs in the body. This could mean more pain and ultimately, death. | |
|
| People with low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with either of two types of contemporary radiation therapy -; proton beam therapy or intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) -; achieved equally high rates of tumor control with no differences in patient-reported quality of life, according to a first-of-its-kind phase III clinical trial comparing the two technologies. | |
|
| Older adults treated for cancer face twice the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases compared to those without cancer. The highest risks are seen in patients with metastatic, hematologic, and lung cancers, especially after chemotherapy. | |
|
| Cancer incidence trends in 2021 largely returned to what they were before the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a study by researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). | |
|
| A radiopharmaceutical therapy that has successfully extended progression-free survival for patients with neuroendocrine tumors shows early promise for delivering similar benefits to patients with difficult-to-treat meningioma, a type of brain tumor. | |
|
| Researchers in China found multiple types of microplastics in human semen and urine, with exposure to PTFE significantly linked to reduced sperm quality, highlighting potential reproductive health risks. | |
|
| A new paper in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, published by Oxford University Press, indicates that patients may benefit if doctors stop calling certain early-stage changes to the prostate "cancer" at all. | |
|
| With a four-year, $3.3 million grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), researchers from Case Western Reserve University will study whether certain brain proteins may play a role in the development of Alzheimer's disease. | |
