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.
A multidisciplinary team of pathologists, oncologists and biologists has discovered a new biomarker to determine whether immunotherapy may work in people with colon and rectal cancer.
A clinical trial has shown that post-thrombotic syndrome — a common and often painful complication after deep vein thrombosis — can be effectively treated with a minimally invasive procedure.
A new study using a “digital twin” AI model has found that factors such as loneliness, insomnia and poor mental health substantially raise a person’s future risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
AI models can generate more complete summaries of complex cancer pathology reports than physicians, according to a new study that tested six models developed by Meta, Google, DeepSeek and Mistral AI.
Regular sauna bathing has been associated with several beneficial health effects. A new study from Finland may help explain how these effects develop in the body.
Researchers conducted the first randomized trial of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)-guided CPR, showing improved blood flow indicators during resuscitation of cardiac arrest patients.
Researchers have now investigated whether a person’s genetic predisposition to different diabetes subgroups can help assess the risk of developing coronary artery disease.
Tick‑borne encephalitis is one of the most dangerous viral diseases spread in Europe. Researchers have discovered how the viruses replicate inside cells, paving the way for future treatments.
Researchers have developed a new MRI-based method that enables objective quantification of the growth of the most aggressive brain tumours, particularly glioblastoma.
AI-enabled ambient documentation shows great promise for reducing doctors' workload – but how big is their impact on burnout prevention really? A new study reveals modest time-saving effects.
Researchers have developed an AI model showing that it is possible to detect different neurodegenerative diseases - for example, Alzheimer’s and Lewy body disease - from a single blood sample.
Working with “digital twins” of patients’ hearts, doctors improved cardiac ablation outcomes for patients with life-threatening arrythmias.
A new scientific study reveals a strong link between exposure to agricultural pesticides in the environment and the risk of developing cancer on a national scale.
Imaging left ventricular function is challenging for patients who cannot hold their breath for long. A new AI-enhanced MRI technique captures the entire cardiac cycle in a single shot.
People with multiple sclerosis (MS) now live significantly longer, thanks to advances in treatments and care, a new study finds. However, inequalities remain, with higher mortality in deprived areas.
