Washington University researchers have developed a quantitative technique measuring leg movement variability to accurately diagnose dystonia in paediatric cerebral palsy patients. The breakthrough identifies brain mechanisms underlying the condition, which could enable early intervention strategies to prevent this painful complication.
The International Hospital Federation has revealed finalists for its 2025 awards programme, with 81 healthcare organisations from 38 countries competing across eight categories. Winners will be announced at the World Hospital Congress in Geneva in November, recognising excellence in clinical quality, sustainability, and operational performance. A full list of finalists is listed below.
A comprehensive analysis spanning four years of global vaccination campaigns reveals that COVID-19 vaccines prevented 2.5 million deaths worldwide between 2020 and 2024. The landmark study, which examined vaccination impact across all age groups and pandemic phases, found that one life was saved for every 5,400 vaccine doses administered, with the vast majority of benefits […]
Mayo Clinic researchers have developed BACDAC, a computational tool that exposes elusive genomic patterns in cancer samples with low DNA coverage, with the aim of transforming how clinicians predict tumour behaviour and guide personalised treatment decisions through enhanced detection of chromosomal instability markers.
China’s National Medical Products Administration has approved expanded production capacity for NEFECON®, the only etiological treatment for IgA nephropathy. The regulatory milestone addresses growing clinical demand across Asia, where over 5 million patients live with this progressive kidney disease requiring targeted therapeutic intervention.
Twenty-five years of Northwestern University research reveals that adults over 80 with exceptional memory possess unique brain structures, greater resistance to Alzheimer’s pathology, and enhanced cellular characteristics that challenge traditional assumptions about cognitive decline during normal ageing processes in humans.
A comprehensive global analysis of nearly 6,000 participants reveals that brief exposure to urban nature provides substantial mental health benefits, with urban forests emerging as particularly powerful environments for psychological wellbeing. The research offers evidence-based guidance for integrating green spaces into public health strategies.
The Gates Foundation announces unprecedented $2.5 billion investment through 2030 to accelerate research and development in chronically underfunded women’s health areas, targeting maternal, menstrual, gynaecological, and sexual health innovations for global impact, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.
Chinese researchers have developed a revolutionary hybrid microscope that simultaneously captures brain blood flow and neuronal activity across the entire mouse cortex with unprecedented detail. The LiTA-HM system achieves subcellular resolution over a 6mm field of view, opening new frontiers in neurovascular coupling research and brain-computer interface development.
A landmark multi-country study has uncovered compelling evidence that the majority of children and young adults clinically diagnosed with type 1 diabetes across sub-Saharan Africa actually have a previously unrecognised non-autoimmune form of insulin-deficient diabetes. The research fundamentally challenges current diabetes classification systems and could change treatment approaches for young people with diabetes in Africa […]
