Newswise — There is no association between the COVID-19 vaccine and miscarriage, a new Obstetrics and Gynecology study confirms. COVID-19 poses significant risks to pregnant women, but vaccination rates among this population remain low. Using data from the Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD)—a collaborative network between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and 13…
Newswise — Researchers from University of California San Diego have found that children diagnosed with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) are at significantly increased risk of premature death and serious long-term health complications. The findings, published April 22, 2025 in Hepatology, the scientific journal of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases,…
Newswise — Las mascarillas quirúrgicas ayudan a evitar la propagación de patógenos transmitidos por el aire y, por tanto, se usaron ampliamente durante la pandemia de COVID-19. En la actualidad, una mascarilla modificada también podría proteger a una persona al detectar afecciones de salud, como la enfermedad renal crónica. Los investigadores que publican un artículo…
Newswise — DNA methylation is a conserved epigenetic modification influencing various biological processes, including fruit development and ripening. Previous research has shown that methylation changes affect ripening in fruits like tomato, strawberry, and sweet orange, but its role in grape development remained unclear. ‘Fengzao’, an early-ripening mutant of ‘Kyoho’, provided an ideal model to study…
Newswise — INDIANAPOLIS — A study co-led by Indiana University School of Medicine researchers presents a potential new strategy to prevent or slow the progression of Type 1 diabetes by targeting an inflammation-related protein known to drive the disease. The findings, recently published in eBioMedicine, may help inform clinical trials of a drug that is…
Newswise — Major reallocation of healthcare services during the COVID-19 pandemic meant that elective surgery in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) was significantly reduced, so that those needing urgent, lifesaving and emergency surgery could be treated. However, this prioritisation of the most severely ill children did not increase overall post-operative complications rates or death,…
Newswise — Researchers from the University of California San Diego have found that Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE) can help rewire the brain’s response to natural healthy pleasure, leading to improved mood, greater attention to positive experiences and reduced opioid cravings. The findings, published on April 30, 2025 in the Journal of the American Medical Association…
Newswise — New research led by Yale School of Medicine (YSM) advances the goals of creating a diagnostic test and vaccines for tickborne diseases. The study was published March 26 in Science Translational Medicine. Ixodes scapularis, also known as the deer tick and black-legged tick, is the primary vector for several tickborne diseases, including Lyme…
Newswise — Philadelphia May 6, 2025 – Researchers at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) highlighted the success of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibition therapy in treating hereditary neuroblastoma, a rare subset of a common childhood cancer. Researchers suggest that the findings, published recently in JCO Precision Oncology, could help establish a new standard of care….
Newswise — Near-infrared photodetectors are used in biomedical sensing and defense and security technologies. For enhanced performance and integrated, compact imaging systems, the photodetectors must be able to detect multiple wavelengths of light at once on a single chip. Quantum dots — tiny crystals made of semiconducting material — could present a path forward because…
