Performing CPR for 38 minutes or longer can improve a patient
An interim study by Italian researchers showed that using a modelling programme together with IPSS and dosage measure can predict the severity of acute urinary symptoms in patients with early prostate cancer who underwent radiotherapy. ‘Quantitative models predicting the risk of acute (and late) genito-urinary (GU) toxicity in patients treated with high dose radiotherapy for […]
Advanced imaging techniques may be able to distinguish which patients’ tumours will respond to treatment with anti-angiogenic drugs and which will not. Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) researchers studied patients newly diagnosed with the dangerous brain tumour glioblastoma and treated with the anti-angiogenic agent cediranib. They report that those patients for whom cediranib rapidly ‘normalised’ abnormal […]
Sepsis is the leading cause of in-hospital death and there is no specific treatment for it. Now, research led by Dr. Qingping Feng of Western University suggests a protein called recombinant human annexin A5 may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of this disease Sepsis is caused by an overwhelming immune response to an existing […]
Research jointly conducted by investigators at Institut Gustave Roussy, Inserm, Institut Pasteur and INRA (French National Agronomic Research Institute) has led to a rather surprising discovery on the manner in which cancer chemotherapy treatments act more effectively with the help of the intestinal flora (also known as the intestinal microbiota). Indeed, the researchers have just […]
A team of researchers at the University of Twente in the Netherlands have developed a prototype of a new imaging tool that may one day help to detect breast cancer early, when it is most treatable. If effective, the new device, called a photoacoustic mammoscope, would represent an entirely new way of imaging the breast […]
Nurses caring for ostomy patients will now be equipped with an essential new tool that provides them with the first comprehensive guide to optimise ostomy management and enhance patient safety. Janice Beitz, a professor at the Rutgers School of Nursing
A new nanotechnology-based technique for regulating blood sugar in diabetics may give patients the ability to release insulin painlessly using a small ultrasound device, allowing them to go days between injections
The gelation tendencies of four bisphosphonates were studied in detail under the baton of Academy Research Fellow Elina Siev
