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.
The chances of breast cancer recurring remain very low when patients are treated with radiotherapy that is tailored to their individual risk following chemotherapy and surgery, new study results find.
Severe infections could increase the risk of developing dementia years later, independently of other coexisting illnesses, a new study from Finland suggests.
Neither radiologists nor multimodal large language models (LLMs) are able to easily distinguish AI-generated “deepfake” X-ray images from authentic ones, according to a new study.
Scientists have discovered the protective role of a bacterium that could prevent long Covid. Their discovery could lead to the development of new therapy approaches.
Two new studies explore the role of the thymus – a small organ in the chest, and possibly a missing piece in explaining why people age differently, and why cancer treatments fail in some patients.
Prostate cancer screening compares favourably to screening for breast cancer in identifying significant cancers, reducing mortality and avoiding unnecessary harms, says new research.
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affects millions worldwide. A novel implant could provide patients with ease of use and a better quality of life than current options.
A PSMA PET/CT imaging test could safely halve the number of people who need a biopsy for suspected prostate cancer following inconclusive or reassuring results from an MRI scan, new research finds.
Antibiotics can affect the composition of the community of bacteria living in the gut, known as the gut microbiome, for as long as four to eight years after treatment, a new study shows.
GLP-1 weight-loss drugs may help prevent further tissue damage following a heart attack, significantly reducing the risk of further life-threatening complications, a new study finds.
