A novel perspective on how digital technologies affect human sociality and mental health has been proposed by researchers in a study published in the journal Cyberpsychology, Behavior and Social Networking [1]. The “Disembodied Disconnect Hypothesis” offers a nuanced view of the complex relationship between digital technology use and social cohesion.
Leading GP Professor Dame Clare Gerada advocates for reform in treating healthcare workers’ mental illness, highlighting alarming suicide rates and systemic issues in the medical profession.
A novel miniature wireless LED device developed by researchers at the University of Notre Dame demonstrates potential for treating deep-seated cancers through a combination of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and immune system activation. The implantable device, when used in conjunction with the photosensitising dye Rose Bengal, not only destroys cancer cells but also stimulates an immune […]
A groundbreaking study involving over 17,000 patients has demonstrated the safety of pulsed field ablation (PFA) for treating atrial fibrillation. The MANIFEST-17K trial, led by researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, provides compelling evidence that this novel technique avoids many of the complications associated with traditional thermal ablation methods.
New research demonstrates that individuals with prediabetes can substantially improve their long-term health outcomes by postponing the onset of type 2 diabetes for just four years through lifestyle modifications.
Gilead Sciences’ twice-yearly injectable lenacapavir demonstrated complete protection against HIV infection in a landmark Phase 3 trial, potentially revolutionising HIV prevention strategies for vulnerable populations.
A pioneering study from UC Berkeley has detected toxic metals, including arsenic and lead, in commercially available tampons. This unprecedented research raises urgent questions about potential health risks for millions of women who use these products and calls for increased scrutiny of feminine hygiene product safety.
A groundbreaking study led by Stanford Medicine researchers has unveiled six distinct biological subtypes of depression using brain imaging and machine learning techniques. This discovery could change the approach to diagnosing and treating depression, potentially leading to more effective, personalised interventions.
HKUMed team’s technology set to revolutionise liver cancer care A groundbreaking innovation in liver cancer treatment has earned international recognition for a team of researchers from the University of Hong Kong’s LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed).
