New study links human reaction times to breathing cycles20:55 Imagine swimmers on starting blocks poised to dive at the sound of the starting horn or the driver of a car going 60 mph suddenly needing to brake to avoid a collision. A small fraction of a second in response time could make the difference between winning or losing and life or death. Fractionated radiosurgery extends survival for brain metastasis patients20:55 Delivering focused radiation therapy over three to five sessions after surgery for a large brain metastasis reduced the risk of cancer returning at the surgical site compared with delivering the radiation in a single session, according to the results of the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology A071801 presented today at the plenary session of the American Society for Radiation Oncology in Boston. New antibody treatment blocks immune response to prevent Alzheimer's damage20:23 There is no treatment available today to stop the death of brain cells in neurodegenerative diseases known as tauopathies, including Alzheimer's disease, in which twisted clumps of a protein called tau accumulate in the brain. Zebrafish study reveals how albinism gene influences embryonic eye development19:51 Tiny, striped zebrafish are helping scientists trace how a gene linked to albinism influences eye development, work that may ultimately help explain some of the vision problems experienced by people with the condition and guide the search for new treatments. Community-based dog vaccination campaigns protect African children from rabies19:51 A community-based approach to vaccinating dogs against rabies could help protect countless children in Africa and other areas from one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases, according to a new study led by Washington State University. Millions of Americans live in counties without a general surgeon19:51 More than 15 million Americans live in one of the 1,180 US counties with no general surgeon, and 951 counties have no surgeon in any of 12 surgical specialties, according to a new national analysis announced today at the ACS Clinical Congress 2026 in Washington, D.C., and simultaneously published today in the Journal of the American College of Surgeons (JACS). New automated method maps complex myelin patterns in the brain19:51 Myelin, the insulating sheath around nerve fibers, is essential for fast, healthy signalling in the brain, and its patterns enormously vary across brain tissue regions. Study identifies inconsistent care routines for internal head and neck lymphedema19:51 Internal head and neck lymphedema develops when cancer treatment damages or obstructs lymphatic drainage, causing fluid to accumulate in the oral cavity, pharynx, or larynx. Insomnia linked to increased risk of stroke and hospital admissions19:18 Insomnia is not only associated with poor sleep and reduced daytime functioning, but may also be an indicator of increased health risks. Cancer cells erase sections of Y chromosome to trigger tumor growth in men19:18 A new study found that cancer cells selectively chip away gene-rich sections of the Y chromosome, triggering ripples that regulate tumor growth. |
