Researchers discover a molecular signature to flag dysfunctional aging cells16:25 UCLA researchers have identified a rogue population of immune cells that quietly accumulates in aging tissues and in the livers of people with fatty liver disease. Clearing these cells, they found, dramatically reduced inflammation and reversed liver damage in mice - even while the animals remained on an unhealthy diet. Sunlight exposure via windows risks infant dehydration and skin damage14:49 Researchers from the Universitat Politècnica de València, the Francesc de Borja University Hospital in Gandia and the La Ribera University Hospital, through the Fisabio Foundation, have found that sunlight passing through windows in homes is neither a safe nor a recommended alternative for preventing or treating neonatal jaundice, a condition affecting more than half of all newborns. BMI increases in early childhood may reflect muscle growth, not fat14:48 A new study published in The Journal of Nutrition, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Society for Nutrition, offers new insights into a decades-old puzzle in childhood obesity. The study found that while body mass index (BMI) starts to rise in early childhood during a stage known as adiposity rebound, when BMI increases after an initial decline, the waist-to-height ratio, a measure that bett… New findings explain why eccentric training prevents common sprinting injuries14:17 Hamstring injuries are among the most common injuries in sports, particularly in activities involving sprinting and rapid acceleration. They account for roughly 10 % of injuries in field-based sports and often result in significant time away from competition. Despite their frequency, the mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of certain training programs in preventing these injuries remain poorl… Older adults show high willingness for Alzheimer’s blood tests1:15 Northwestern University psychologist Andrea Russell sees older adults with early cognitive impairment riddled with anxiety. Some worry a missed word or forgotten appointment could signal Alzheimer's disease. Middle-aged Americans face rising loneliness and mental health challenges0:37 Frank Infurna first started thinking about the plight of middle-aged adults 10 years ago. He conducted a monthly survey, asking about their health, well-being, relationships, and life events. Popular chatbots often provide inaccurate and incomplete medical information15.dubna A substantial amount of medical information provided by 5 popular chatbots is inaccurate and incomplete, with half of the answers to clear evidence based questions "somewhat" or "highly" problematic, show the results of a study published in the open access journal BMJ Open. Study finds AI can match clinicians in interview assessment15.dubna Clinical interviewing is one of the most important skills physicians develop during their training. It forms the foundation for accurate diagnosis and effective patient care. |
