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.

Do B Vitamins Increase the Risk of Getting Cancer?
New study reveals a strong correlation between increased risk of lung cancer and long-term B₆/B₁₂ supplementation, especially in high doses and among smokers. There are several ways B vitamins may interact with cancer metabolism; more research is needed to determine the exact mechanisms at work.
Growth Hormone May Improve Memory and Recovery For Stroke Survivors
Less fatigue and better recovery of cognitive abilities such as learning and memory. These may be the results of growth hormone treatment after a stroke, an experimental study of mice suggests.
Scientists Develop First 3D-Printed Human Corneas
The first human corneas have been 3D-printed by scientists. It means the technique could be used in the future to ensure an unlimited supply of corneas.
Fully Reprogrammed Virus Offers New Hope as Cancer Treatment
Researchers have successfully 'trained' a respiratory virus to recognize ovarian cancer and completely destroy it without infecting other cells. The reprogrammed virus could also be used to treat other cancers such as breast, pancreatic, lung and oral.
Vitamin B6 Helps People Recall Dreams
New research from the University of Adelaide has found that taking high-dose vitamin B6 supplements before going to bed for five consecutive days could help people recall their dreams.
