Scientists have discovered a novel mechanism by which immune cells targeting gut bacteria can infiltrate the brain and cause neuroinflammation through molecular mimicry. The research reveals how intestinal inflammation promotes the migration of microbiota-specific T cells into the central nervous system, where they mistakenly attack brain proteins.
Researchers have discovered that theta brain waves play a crucial role in integrating visual lip movements with speech sounds during memory formation. The study demonstrates how disrupting the natural synchronisation between these audiovisual cues affects neural oscillations in both the neocortex and hippocampus, potentially impacting speech memory accuracy.
A landmark survey in the United States has revealed that deeply meaningful patient encounters, termed “sacred moments,” could offer a powerful antidote to the epidemic of physician burnout plaguing healthcare systems worldwide.
Scientists at the San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy have unlocked a remarkable biological window – a fleeting period immediately after birth when circulating blood stem cells become uniquely accessible for genetic modification directly within the body. This discovery could transform treatment approaches for devastating genetic blood disorders, offering hope without the invasive procedures […]
Caltech researchers have successfully implemented their innovative iCares smart bandage system in human patients with chronic wounds, demonstrating real-time biomarker detection capabilities that could transform wound care management.
A large-scale study from Rutgers Health has found that repeated antibiotic exposure in children under two years of age is associated with a significantly higher risk of developing asthma, food allergies and hay fever later in childhood. The research, involving over one million children, demonstrates that antibiotics may disrupt the digestive microbiome during a critical […]
A groundbreaking study by ETH Zurich and Leipzig researchers has created the first comprehensive cellular atlas of adipose tissue in obese individuals, revealing crucial differences between those who maintain metabolic health and those who develop conditions like diabetes and hypertension. The findings, published in Cell Metabolism, could revolutionise how we identify and treat obesity-related metabolic […]
A landmark clinical trial conducted across multiple sites in India has demonstrated that administering intravenous iron during early second trimester pregnancy is both safe and effective for treating iron deficiency anaemia, potentially changing current treatment protocols globally.
A comprehensive analysis of early-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) in China reveals the age-standardised incidence rate has more than doubled between 1990 and 2021, highlighting an urgent public health challenge. The study, published in Health Data Science in December 2024, found particularly concerning trends among adolescents and young males.
New research from the Medical University of Vienna has identified a mechanism explaining why people with haemophilia A rarely experience oral bleeding, despite their blood clotting deficiency. The finding could have implications for understanding bleeding patterns in different coagulation disorders.
