  • New gene identified in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy 2022-05-24
    Researchers have used advanced sequencing technology to better understand the heart disease arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, in which heart muscle tissue is replaced by fat cells. Using explanted human hearts, they found regions in which heart muscle was actively degenerated and identified a new gene, ZBTB11, that drives heart muscle cell degradation.
  • Scientists discover gene plays critical role in embryo development 2022-05-24
    Developing drugs that affect the function of the Cnpy4 gene, which is involved in human embryo development, may provide potential new treatment options for diseases, including cancer.
  • How eating eggs can boost heart health 2022-05-24
    Researchers have shown how moderate egg consumption can increase the amount of heart-healthy metabolites in the blood.
  • Living with dogs (but not cats) as a toddler might protect against Crohn's disease 2022-05-24
    Young children who grow up with a dog or in a large family may have some protection later in life from a common inflammatory bowel disease known as Crohn's disease, according to a new study.
  • 'Happy hormone' dopamine plays role in identifying emotions 2022-05-24
    Emotion-recognition among people with disorders such as Parkinson's disease or schizophrenia may be affected by changes in the levels dopamine in the brain, say researchers.
  • How anesthetics affect brain functions 2022-05-24
    Modern anesthesia is one of the most important medical achievements. Whereas before, patients had to suffer hellish agonies during every operation, today anesthesia enables completely painless procedures. One feels nothing and can remember nothing afterwards. It is already known from electroencephalography (EEG) studies on patients that during anesthesia the brain is put into a deep […]
  • Reducing TV viewing to less than one hour a day could help prevent more than one in ten cases of coronary heart disease 2022-05-24
    Watching too much TV is associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease regardless of an individual's genetic makeup, say scientists. The researchers show that -- assuming a causal link -- 11% of cases of coronary heart disease could be prevented if people watched less than an hour of TV each day.
  • Research boosts 'game-changing' technology to strengthen drug development 2022-05-24
    Researchers have boosted pioneering technology to show whether potential treatments are worth progressing into human trials, in a game-changing move that could dramatically reduce the high failure rates in drug discovery and development.
  • Desire for son in Nepal may impact on girls' health and wellbeing -- new study 2022-05-24
    The desire for a son could mean Nepali mothers stop breastfeeding infant daughters sooner, says new research. Girls in Nepal are breastfed for fewer months than boys on average, with girls with older sisters but no brothers being the most disadvantaged, says the study. And this shorter breastfeeding time is linked to a greater risk […]
  • Cystic fibrosis: Restoring airway integrity 2022-05-24
    Cystic fibrosis is a rare genetic disease which can cause very serious symptoms. In particular, patients suffer from chronic bacterial infections that can lead to respiratory failure. It is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, which regulates water movement across the cell membrane. Consequently, mucus quality is altered, it is no longer capable of […]
  • Human or seal? Who has the best underwater hearing? 2022-05-24
    We humans do better on land than under water -- also when it comes to our hearing. But now a new study shows that we actually have better underwater hearing than previously thought -- at certain frequencies we hear just as well as the seal.
  • Scientists discover a potential new marker to personalized therapy for breast cancer 2022-05-24
    A new study has discovered that 'crown-like structures' surrounding breast tumors in overweight and obese patients could hinder their response to therapy. The findings of this study could potentially be used to improve personalized treatment for patients with HER2+ overexpressed breast cancer.
  • Mothers of twins are not more fertile, just lucky 2022-05-24
    Are women who have twins more fertile? While previous studies concluded they are, a detailed analysis of more than 100,000 births from pre-industrial Europe by an international team of scientists shows they are not.
  • Population-scale study highlights ongoing risk of COVID-19 in some cancer patients despite vaccination 2022-05-23
    A study has found that while COVID-19 vaccination is effective in most cancer patients, the level of protection against COVID-19 infection, hospitalization and death offered by the vaccine is less than in the general population and vaccine effectiveness wanes more quickly.
  • Designers find better solutions with computer assistance, but sacrifice creative touch 2022-05-23
    A computer-guided approach to design can propose more solutions and balance out human inexperience and design fixation.
  • Air pollution linked to deadly heart rhythm disorder 2022-05-23
    Life-threatening arrhythmias are more common on days with highly polluted air, according to new research.
  • Taste buds can adapt to low salt diet 2022-05-23
    A taste adaptation intervention lowers salt intake and increases enjoyment of a sodium restricted diet in patients with hypertension, according to a small study.
  • Alcohol may be more risky to the heart than previously thought 2022-05-23
    Levels of alcohol consumption currently considered safe by some countries are linked with development of heart failure.
  • Bacteria can live in snake and spider venoms 2022-05-23
    Newly published research shows that, contrary to what is commonly believed, the venom of snakes and spiders is actually populated with microbes, including bacteria that could cause infection in people who have suffered a bite.
  • 'I don't even remember what I read': People enter a 'dissociative state' when using social media 2022-05-23
    Researchers found that people might not be 'addicted' to social media. Instead they get stuck in a state of dissociation, like what happens when you are reading a good book.
