High-precision radiation therapy can significantly reduce the number of arrhythmia episodes in critically ill patients with life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. This is demonstrated by the first large-scale prospective European registry study on so-called stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation […]
Virginia Tech scientists at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute say the increased risk of cardiovascular disease after menopause may stem not only from declining hormone levels, but also from how those changes influence gene activity. […]
Mayo Clinic researchers report that a highly targeted, noninvasive form of radiation therapy reduced episodes of a life-threatening heart rhythm disorder by nearly 80% in a first-in-human early feasibility study of patients with few remaining […]
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have elucidated the molecular pathogenesis of multicentric carpotarsal osteolysis (MCTO), a rare hereditary disorder that frequently results in renal failure. Using a mouse model, they demonstrated that MCTO is caused […]
Clinicians use electroencephalography (EEG) to assess brain activity in epilepsy and sleep pathologies, and this powerful tool has shown promise for other conditions. Emerging evidence suggests that brain development, age, and the time of day […]
A clinical study shows that a symptom-based treatment for babies with neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS)—a highly prevalent condition wherein opioid exposure during pregnancy leads to withdrawal after birth—could speed up their recovery. To treat […]
Delaying hepatitis B vaccination after birth increases infections among newborns and decreases their survival rates and quality of life, according to a new Cornell University study. The longer the delay, the study found, the higher […]
Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University investigators have developed and successfully tested a new treatment for pregnant women with severe early preeclampsia, a leading cause of premature birth as well as maternal and fetal death. The early-stage […]
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection acquired at birth or during early infancy can lead to lifelong health complications, including chronic liver disease. Despite longstanding recommendations for prenatal screening, an estimated 12% to 16% of pregnant […]
A food coloring widely used in the U.S. and worldwide has been found to alter the balance of bacteria living in the gut and may cause low levels of inflammation. Researchers will present these findings […]
