Dr Predrag Radivojac Physical activity early in pregnancy may decrease the risk of gestational diabetes and reduce the increased risk of the condition among women with a genetic predisposition, according to new research published in JAMA Network Open. The researchers, from Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts, analyzed data from 3533 women to calculate their risk of […]

Preeclampsia is a condition that affects the placenta during pregnancy and is dangerous for both the fetus and the mother. Scientists from the Institut Pasteur, Inserm and the CNRS have proposed a new therapy, tested in two rodent models, that corrects the defects identified in placental cells, and restores placental and fetal weight. The treatment […]
The multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (MKI), lenvatinib, is widely used to treat advanced and metastatic thyroid cancer. However, the molecular mechanisms by which thyroid cancer cells become resistant to lenvatinib remain poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrated, for the first time, that activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mediated signaling pathway is involved […]

Clinical data and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging did not improve risk prediction for sudden cardiac death (SCD) after myocardial infarction in the largest pooled patient cohort collected to date. The late breaking research from the PROFID project is presented at ESC Congress 2022 on 29 August. SCD is responsible for approximately one in five […]
University of Minnesota Twin Cities scientists and engineers have found a way to improve the performance of traditional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) reconstruction techniques, allowing for faster MRIs to improve health care. The paper is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. “MRIs take a long time because you’re acquiring the data […]
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have found a new druggable pathway that potentially could be used to help prevent Alzheimer’s dementia. Amyloid beta accumulation in the brain is the first step in the development of Alzheimer’s dementia. Scientists have poured countless hours and millions of dollars into finding ways to […]
Researchers at the University of East Anglia have developed cutting-edge technology to diagnose patients with heart failure in record time. The state-of-the-art technology uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to create detailed 4D flow images of the heart. But unlike a standard MRI scan, which can take up to 20 minutes or more, the new 4D […]
Instead of sitting in a tattoo chair for hours enduring painful punctures, imagine getting tattooed by a skin patch containing microscopic needles. Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed low-cost, painless, and bloodless tattoos that can be self-administered and have many applications, from medical alerts to tracking neutered animals to cosmetics. “We’ve miniaturized […]
