Understanding how and when AI technology could help clinicians save lives3:14 While artificial intelligence technology is increasingly being used - formally and informally - to support medical diagnoses, its utility in emergency medical settings remains an open question. New neuron signaling mechanism reveals safer pathway for pain treatment3:14 Researchers at Tulane University, with a team of colleagues from eight other universities, have discovered a new nerve cell signaling mechanism that could transform our understanding of pain and lead to safer, more effective treatments. Germany expands interdisciplinary surveillance to curb rising antibiotic resistance3:14 OHIS stands for One Health Integrated Surveillance, i.e. the monitoring of antibiotic resistance in the sense of a holistic, interdisciplinary One Health strategy. Inflammatory biomarkers offer new insights for precision medicine in ischemic stroke3:14 Ischemic stroke, a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide, is a complex cerebrovascular event with outcomes heavily influenced by the inflammatory response. C-reactive protein shows stronger accuracy for early-onset sepsis in preterm newborns3:14 Neonatal EOS, a severe bloodstream infection that strikes within the first three days of life, is a major cause of infant illness and death worldwide. Oral GLP-1 pill shows strong weight loss and blood sugar benefits in adults with diabetes3:14 A new oral GLP-1 medication can help adults with obesity and Type 2 diabetes lose more weight and improve their blood sugar levels compared to a placebo, according to findings from the ATTAIN-2 trial led by a UTHealth Houston researcher. Scientists uncover molecular mechanism behind chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy3:14 Chemotherapy activates a stress sensor in immune cells, triggering inflammation and nerve damage, which may help explain why many cancer patients experience debilitating pain as a side effect, according to a new study by Weill Cornell Medicine and Wake Forest University School of Medicine researchers Changes in brain fats play a key role in Alzheimer's development and progression2:41 More than a century ago, Alois Alzheimer noted unusual changes in brain fats, which he described as "lipoid granules," along with the buildup of amyloid-beta (amyloid) plaques and tau protein tangles. Toxin-secreting gut bacterium emerges as a driver of ulcerative colitis2:41 A toxin-secreting gut bacterium may fuel ulcerative colitis by killing protective immune cells that maintain intestinal homeostasis, according to a new study. The findings suggest potential for new treatment strategies. New single-cell method reveals how plasmids drive antibiotic resistance2:41 Researchers in the Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School have just opened a new window into understanding the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. |
