| An international team of researchers has provided a genetic diagnosis for 30 individuals whose condition was undiagnosed for years despite extensive clinical or genetic testing. | |
|
| Uterine fibroids are a common condition that affects up to 80% of women in their lifetime. Nearly half of those women will experience symptoms that affect their quality of life and fertility, including severe pain and anemia. | |
|
| Alterations in AM function following the exposure to berry-flavored e-cigarettes that lead to poor immune responses to pathogens and reduced host survival. | |
|
| Researchers developed MethylGPT, a powerful transformer-based model that identifies DNA methylation patterns, enabling advanced age and disease prediction with clinical potential. | |
|
| Researchers developed CpGPT, a novel foundation model for DNA methylation analysis that captures sequence, positional, and epigenetic context to predict aging and disease risks. This model offers breakthroughs in imputing missing data and improving mortality and morbidity predictions. | |
|
| Researchers developed a barcoded directed evolution system for engineered virus-like particles (eVLPs), creating a fifth-generation (v5) eVLP with enhanced production, transduction, and gene-editing efficiency. This system could pave the way for improved gene delivery vehicles in therapeutic applications. | |
|
| A practical calculator that predicts the risk of epilepsy after venous stroke is presented in a study from the University of Gothenburg and others. The aim is to improve care for those affected, which are predominantly young adults. | |
|
| The ASUNCTIS trial evaluated asunercept's safety and efficacy in COVID-19, showing trends toward faster recovery despite not meeting statistical significance. | |
|
| The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center today announced the launch of its Institute for Cell Therapy Discovery & Innovation, which will build upon longstanding MD Anderson clinical and research expertise to lead the world in developing and advancing impactful cell therapies for patients in need. | |
|
| People who take an anticoagulant medicine double their risk of an internal bleed if they take a type of painkiller called a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) such as ibuprofen, diclofenac or naproxen, according to research published in the European Heart Journal [1] today (Monday). | |
|
| A new clinical study shows that an inhibitor of Fas ligand (FasL), also called CD95 ligand (CD95L), led to a faster recovery of COVID-19 patients and reduced mortality. | |
|
| Epigenetic changes from obesity persist after weight loss, altering fat cell function and increasing the risk of weight regain, impacting metabolic health. | |
|
| A commonly prescribed medication for heart failure was linked to a lower risk of heart damage, or cardiotoxicity, among high-risk cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment using anthracyclines, according to preliminary late-breaking science presented today at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2024. | |
|
| Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and their collaborators have identified an inherited genetic variation prevalent among East Asians that contributes to drug resistance, driving the aggressive growth of cancer cells in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. | |
|
| Neutropenia is a condition in which there are not enough neutrophils, a type of white blood cell, in the blood. | |
