When a patient's blood flows through catheters, stents or other medical devices, there's always a risk that harmful clots may form. An experimental new bio-inspired coating could keep that from happening, without the use of blood-thinning drugs. Source of Article
Researchers at UCSF have developed a single genomic test that can quickly detect virtually any kind of pathogen in a patient. This allows for much quicker diagnoses, enables targeted treatment to begin sooner, and could lower healthcare costs. Source of Article
We naturally pick up microorganisms as we move about the world. Now, researchers have developed an AI tool that accurately links you to a particular location using a sample of the bugs you’ve collected on your travels – like a bacterial satellite navigation system. Source of Article
New research has linked higher plasma levels of the healthy fats omega-3 and omega-6 to a reduced risk of developing particular types of cancer. The study adds to the on-again/off-again relationship that exists between scientists and the common supplements. Source of Article
Scientists have demonstrated a creative new way to kill cancer cells effectively, with few side effects. Gluing two particular proteins together tricks the tumors into destroying themselves. Source of Article
The ‘Ozempic drug,’ semaglutide, has been found to reduce moderately severe pain caused by knee osteoarthritis and improve physical functioning following weight loss, according to the results of a recent clinical trial by Novo Nordisk, the drug’s manufacturer. Source of Article
Researchers have developed a nanoscale sensor that detects lung cancer by analyzing isoprene levels in your breath. The team believes its breakthrough could unlock a non-invasive, low-cost method to catch the disease early and save lives. Source of Article
As more bacteria become increasingly resistant to antibiotics, we need more ways to fight infections. That's where this new patch comes in. With a gentle electric zap, this wearable could prevent bacteria from doing a number on us through our skin. Source of Article
The future of cancer treatment just got a whole lot brighter. Researchers have created digital twins of patients and used them as virtual guinea pigs, testing out different drugs to predict which one would be most effective against the type of cancer they have. Source of Article
Spanning nearly 100 laboratories in 45 countries, a landmark study has, for the first time, shown an association between genetic brain shape and size and the prevalence of neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease and ADHD. Source of Article
