Successful root canal treatment could lower inflammation, blood sugar, and cholesterol, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes, according to King’s College London research.
NIH researchers found that the brain's control centre for a lost limb persists long after amputation, challenging theories of cortical remapping. This insight into phantom limb syndrome could inform future neuroprosthetic and pain treatments.
Drs Francesc Xavier Cos Claramunt and Carmen Hurtado, representatives of the European Diabetes Forum (EUDF), discuss the prevalence and challenges associated with diabetes management and the health-related policies needed to support prevention and early diagnosis.
As more older adults live with dementia, frailty, and multiple long-term conditions, health and social care systems must adapt to deliver truly coordinated, person-centred support.
Stanford researchers have created a brain-computer interface that translates imagined speech into text, enabling communication for individuals with severe paralysis.
A University of Oxford-led review found women with obesity who lost weight before IVF were 47% more likely to conceive naturally and 21% more likely to become pregnant overall.
Researchers from the University of Zurich have developed an AI-driven gene editing method that improves DNA repair predictions, enabling more accurate and safer genome modifications.
King's College London researchers develop a minimally invasive under-the-skin electrode that allows continuous, real-world tracking of epilepsy seizures, improving diagnosis and treatment options.
A new study links excessive screen time in children and teens to higher risks of high blood pressure, cholesterol, and insulin resistance, especially when sleep is limited.
Researchers using patient-derived stem cells reveal a rare ALS mutation triggers a chronic stress response in motor neurons, blocking it reverses damage in lab models, paving the way for new treatment strategies.
A new experimental treatment has been shown to reduce brain damage from stroke by up to 60% in mice, raising hopes for a breakthrough in recovery outcomes.
Karolinska Institutet researchers analysed DNA from nearly one million people and found genetic variants tied to brain function, immune defence, and metabolism that raise the risk of frailty in old age.
