Weight Loss Leads to Remission of Type 2 Diabetes in Some Patients
Nearly half of individuals with type 2 diabetes achieved remission to a non-diabetic state after weight-loss. Now a new study links weight loss is with early and sustained improvement in the functioning of pancreatic beta cells.
Products of Omega-3 Fatty Acid Metabolism May Have Anticancer Effects
Molecules formed when the body metabolizes omega-3 fatty acids inhibit cancer's growth and spread in a new study in mice. The molecules – endocannabinoids – are made naturally by the body and have similar properties to cannabinoids found in marijuana.
Technique May Improve Lung Delivery of Bacteria-Killing Phage
A new delivery system for bacteriophages – viruses that selectively attack harmful bacteria – could help give doctors a new way to battle lung infections that threaten older patients and people with cystic fibrosis.
Alcohol-Related Cirrhosis Deaths Skyrocket in Young Adults
Rapid rise in liver deaths highlights new challenges in treatment and prevention, despite gains in fighting hepatitis C, researchers say.
New Blood Test for Autism is Highly Accurate
One year after researchers published their work on a physiological test for autism, a follow-up study confirms its exceptional success, with an 88 percent accuracy rate in correctly predicting if a child is on the autism spectrum.
Prostate Cancer Ultrasound Treatment as Effective as Surgery or Radiotherapy
Using high energy ultrasound beams to destroy prostate cancer tumours may be as effective as surgery or radiotherapy, but with fewer side effects.
Exposure to Paint, Varnish, Other Solvents Linked to Increased Risk of MS
People exposed to paint, varnish and other solvents who also carry genes that make them more susceptible to developing multiple sclerosis (MS) may be at much greater risk of developing the disease than people who have only the exposure to solvents or the MS genes.
Daily Fasting on 16:8 Diet Aids Weight Loss
Daily fasting is an effective tool to reduce weight and lower blood pressure, according to a new study that examines the effect of time-restricted eating on weight loss in obese individuals.
Experimental Drug Stops Parkinson's Disease Progression in Mice
Researchers say they have developed an experimental drug, similar to compounds used to treat diabetes, that slows the progression of Parkinson's disease itself – as well as its symptoms – in mice.
Allergen in Red Meat Linked to Heart Disease
A team of researchers says it has linked sensitivity to an allergen in red meat to the buildup of plaque in the arteries of the heart. While high saturated fat levels in red meat have long been known to contribute to heart disease for people in general, the new finding suggests that a subgroup of the population may be at heightened risk for a different reason – a food allergen.
