| New method identifies tau aggregates occurring in healthy body structures Posted: 06 May 2021 07:54 AM PDT Researchers used microscopy and machine learning to distinguish tau protein aggregates occurring as part of healthy functions from those occurring in disease. |
| Men with chest pain receive faster, more medical attention than women Posted: 06 May 2021 07:54 AM PDT Among younger adults visiting the emergency department for chest pain, women may be getting the short end of the stick. Compared with men of similar age, women were triaged less urgently, waited longer to be seen, and were less likely to undergo basic tests or be hospitalized or admitted for observation to diagnose a heart attack, according to new research. |
| Mental health may play big role in recovery after a heart attack Posted: 06 May 2021 07:54 AM PDT Young and middle-aged adults who reported severe psychological distress -- such as depression or anxiety -- after suffering a heart attack were more than twice as likely to suffer a second cardiac event within five years compared with those experiencing only mild distress, according to a new study. |
| Exercise aids the cognitive development of children born preterm Posted: 06 May 2021 07:54 AM PDT A premature start in life can cause problems even into teenage years. A study indicates that training motor skills in these children helps even when they are older. |
| Epilepsy research reveals why sleep increases risk of sudden death Posted: 06 May 2021 07:54 AM PDT To understand the effect of sleep seizures, researchers monitored the brain and heart activity of people with epilepsy as they slept. |
| Defective epithelial barriers linked to two billion chronic diseases Posted: 06 May 2021 07:53 AM PDT Humans are exposed to a variety of toxins and chemicals every day. According to the epithelial barrier hypothesis, exposure to many of these substances damages the epithelium, the thin layer of cells that covers the surface of our skin, lungs and intestine. Defective epithelial barriers have been linked to a rise in almost two billion allergic, autoimmune, neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases. |
| Possible novel migraine therapy Posted: 05 May 2021 02:49 PM PDT By discovering a potential new cellular mechanism for migraines, researchers may have also found a new way to treat chronic migraine. |
| Cardiovascular disease could be diagnosed earlier with new glowing probe Posted: 05 May 2021 10:05 AM PDT Researchers have created a probe that glows when it detects an enzyme associated with issues that can lead to blood clots and strokes. |
| New guidelines for schools recommend against food bans Posted: 05 May 2021 04:50 AM PDT Schools and child care centres should train staff on food allergies and have epinephrine available to treat anaphylaxis, but new guidelines do not recommend food bans. |
| Brain wave recordings reveal potential for individualized Parkinson's treatments Posted: 04 May 2021 08:26 AM PDT Pioneering neural recordings in patients with Parkinson's disease lays the groundwork for personalized brain stimulation to treat Parkinson's and other neurological disorders. |
| Ultra-high field MRI detects differences in brain's 'hippocampus' Posted: 29 Apr 2021 06:52 AM PDT Using ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to map the brains of people with Down syndrome (DS), researchers detected subtle differences in the structure and function of the hippocampus -- a region of the brain tied to memory and learning. |
