Acquired immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura develops after vaccination with CoronaVac

Researchers from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, et al. have published a case report entitled "Acquired immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) associated with inactivated COVID-19 vaccine CoronaVac". This report was published in Frontiers of Medicine, Volume 18, Issue 4, 2024.

Study uncovers how tumors exploit a molecular signal to exhaust T cells

A new study has discovered a molecular signal that tumors exploit to exhaust the T cells meant to destroy them-and how silencing that signal could revive the body's immunity.

Study highlights need for XDP specific diagnostic assays

Scientists at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School have developed a targeted genetic test to improve diagnosis for X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP), a rare and disabling movement disorder that affects primarily men of Filipino ancestry.

New therapy restores vision after stroke induced blindness

Each year, thousands of stroke survivors are left with hemianopia, a condition that causes loss of half of their visual field (the "vertical midline"). Hemianopia severely affects daily activities such as reading, driving, or just walking through a crowded space.

Low-intensity noise therapy shows how tuning sound to the brain can ease tinnitus

LINTS, a non-masking low-intensity noise tuned to each patient’s tinnitus frequency, produced statistically significant but modest reductions in tinnitus burden in a phase II clinical trial. Improvements were confined to the treatment-only group, with high individual variability and strong dependence on precise acoustic fitting.

Are mushrooms more than a low-calorie food? New analysis explains their hidden advantages

Whole mushroom consumption shows consistent benefits for cardiometabolic health, lowering triglycerides in self-chosen diets and improving fasting glucose in a single healthy dietary pattern trial. Early evidence also suggests increases in salivary IgA and possible blood pressure improvements, with no adverse biomarker effects reported.

Preclinical study shows aged garlic extract improves memory and reduces anxiety

Long-term aged garlic extract supplementation improved specific anxiety-related behaviors and enhanced memory and learning in aging mice. Proteomic profiling revealed extensive hippocampal and cortical molecular changes linked to synaptic signaling, neuroplasticity, and stress-response pathways.

Dash diet cuts diabetes complications by targeting blood pressure kidney health and inflammation

The DASH diet supports metabolic health in people with diabetes by improving blood pressure, renal function, lipids, and modest glycemic markers while reducing risks linked to vascular and inflammatory pathways. Its broad nutrient-driven mechanisms also benefit related conditions such as neuropathy, PCOS, and retinopathy, making it a versatile tool for cardiometabolic care.

Subtle changes in the composition of short tandem repeats may shape disease risk

Scientists at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) have revealed a previously overlooked layer of genetic variation that could help explain why people experience disease differently, and why some treatments work better for certain populations.
