Older adults diagnosed with brain disorders such as Parkinson
Upstate Medical University researchers joined diabetes researchers across the country in reporting that an investigational MiniMed integrated insulin pump system with automatic insulin suspension safely reduced night-time hypoglycemia for people with diabetes without increasing average blood glucose. Hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, can be life threatening for people with type 1 diabetes, especially at night […]
Researchers at the University of Southampton have completed a project that will enable surgeons to fit joint replacements with longer, optimised lifespans. The MXL project uses computational modelling to define the mechanics of an artificial joint
While the use of ultrasound to identify tumours during kidney cancer surgery is gaining acceptance, a research team at Henry Ford Hospital has successfully taken it a step further by showing an added benefit when the procedure is done robotically. Simply put, the kidney surgeon who performs the ultrasound robotically has direct control over the […]
A new low-cost method of in-vitro fertilisation developed at the University of Colorado Boulder that performed successfully in recent human clinical trials in Belgium may help thousands of infertile couples in developing countries. The study using the CU-Boulder technology showed that the low-cost of IVF for developing and ‘resource-poor’ countries is feasible and effective, with […]
If all medical errors were counted together as a single cause, they would likely rank as the third leading cause of death in the United States. As health care personnel race to improve the quality of their care to save lives and prevent unneeded harm, a new study indicates there is more they can do […]
Researchers from the University of Liverpool and University of the West of England, (UWE Bristol), have built a device that can read odours in urine to help diagnose patients with early signs of bladder cancer. There are currently no reliable biomarkers to screen patients for bladder cancer in the same way that there are for […]
A study by researchers at Hospital for Special Surgery has provided the first evidence that the shape of a person
The introduction of CT pulmonary angiography has been associated with an 80% rise in the detection of pulmonary emboli in the US, but with little change in death rates. Professor Renda Soylemez Wiener and colleagues argue this is evidence of over-diagnosis. They say some patients are helped, but many are harmed by the adverse effects […]
Researchers in the Milwaukee area have developed a new automated test to identify most leading causes of bacterial bloodstream infections 42 hours faster than conventional methods, potentially reducing medical bills by about $21,000 for patients suffering from sepsis. The automated nucleic acid test, developed by researchers at Froedtert Hospital & The Medical College of Wisconsin […]
