Once breast cancer begins to metastasise, it generally becomes harder to treat and survival rates are lower. Now, researchers present a new, targeted treatment approach using SBRT radiotherapy.
Researchers have developed a novel 3D‑printed ceramic implant material that closely mimics real human bone. The findings may lead to more effective and accessible treatments for bone defects.
Researchers from some of the UK’s leading academic institutions have warned that simply hiring more NHS staff will not be enough to reduce surgery backlogs, in newly published research.
A new study proposes a new antiviral strategy against SARS-CoV-2 based on a treatment that combines two complementary approaches, capable of attacking the virus simultaneously.
Many women with myasthenia gravis choose not to have children due to fear that the disease will get worse during or after pregnancy. Now, a study investigated the connection to the autoimmune disease.
Researchers have reported results from a first-in-human trial evaluating a novel cell-based platform for localized delivery of interleukin-2 (IL-2) in patients with advanced ovarian cancer.
Researchers have discovered that teaching Large Language Models (LLMs) to mimic human intuition and reasoning significantly improves their ability to provide accurate medical care-seeking advice.
Changes in gut microbiota after bariatric surgery are strongly linked to altered metabolic health and sustained improvement in type 2 diabetes, according to a new study.
Heart disease risk has been found to increase in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), even in those with normal weight, according to new research.
Now, a new study identified a gene therapy for individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) caused by a specific mutation and for whom there was no treatment available until now.
Total hip replacement performed with robotic techniques has a lower reoperation rate than the conventional procedure, according to a six-year study.
Researchers have developed an electrochemical sensor that can detect pancreatic cancer in its early stages. The device offers a simpler, more affordable alternative to conventional tests, which are less accessible.
Endometriosis affects up to one in ten women and girls of reproductive age, but for many, the path to diagnosis is both long and complex. Now, two new studies explain the diagnostic challenges in primary care.
The incidence of colorectal cancer is rising among younger individuals, sometimes as early as their thirties. The research also shows the challenge of late diagnoses and calls for increased awareness.
New models help identify cardiovascular disease risk even before symptoms appear. The researcher's findings also indicate that the risk of heart failure is not evenly distributed across Europe.
By combining two specific markers from a standard cardiac CT scan, researchers were able to identify patients at the highest risk for future heart failure and death.
Most children with a broken wrist can be treated without surgery, a major trial finds, suggesting that a cast-first approach delivers similar long-term recovery while reducing risks and costs.
Not all precancerous lesions will develop into tumours, yet the majority are treated as if they were already breast cancer. A new marker could help identify the relevant cases and avoid overtreatment.
A new technique to “prime” a patient's immune system before liver transplantation has proven itself in a first-in-human clinical trial to successfully prevent transplant rejection.
